Waveform: The MKBHD Podcast

Marques: 本次WWDC 2023发布会内容丰富，涵盖了多个产品线的更新，包括硬件和软件。其中，15英寸MacBook Air的发布是亮点之一，它延续了13英寸版本的品质，并增加了电池容量和扬声器数量，预计将成为苹果最畅销的电脑。Mac Studio和Mac Pro也进行了M2芯片升级，性能得到显著提升。软件方面，macOS Sonoma更新内容相对较少，但增加了桌面小组件功能，并增强了屏幕共享功能。Safari浏览器增加了隐私功能和用户配置文件功能。iOS 17增加了实时语音邮件转录、视频语音邮件、NameDrop等功能，并对AirDrop、iMessage等应用进行了更新。iPadOS 17也更新了小组件功能，允许用户在不打开应用的情况下与小组件进行交互。watchOS 10的动画效果得到了改进，并增加了新的Snoopy主题表盘和健康应用功能。 Andrew: 我个人对iOS 17的实时语音邮件转录功能印象深刻，它允许用户在对方留下语音邮件的过程中实时查看转录内容并选择接听。此外，AirDrop功能的改进也十分实用，可以在超出范围后继续通过互联网传输文件。iPadOS 17的小组件交互功能的更新也弥补了之前iPadOS的不足。在macOS Sonoma中，游戏模式的加入对游戏玩家来说是一个好消息。 David: 我认为Apple Vision Pro头显是本次发布会的最大亮点，它并非单纯的AR/VR头显，而是扩展现实（XR）设备，旨在将数字体验与现实世界无缝融合。其交互方式不同于传统的AR/VR头显，主要依靠手势、眼神和语音控制，用户界面设计是其一大创新点。虽然价格昂贵，但其性能和功能使其与其他VR头显区别开来。其空间感知能力和空间音频功能都非常出色，但目前缺乏多人互动功能，且重量较重。 Ellis: 从整体上看，本次WWDC 2023发布会体现了苹果公司对用户体验的重视，许多更新都基于用户的使用习惯和需求。苹果公司在软件更新中大量使用了机器学习技术，但避免过多使用“AI”一词，这体现了苹果公司在技术宣传方面的策略。 Adam: 我对Apple Vision Pro头显的空间感知能力印象深刻，它能够精准地识别和追踪用户的空间位置，即使用户在房间内走动，虚拟画面也能保持稳定。此外，其自适应音频功能也十分实用，可以根据环境自动调整降噪级别。但是，头显的重量和价格仍然是其不足之处。
