[00:00.00]Apple announced three new iPhones and improved health features
[00:06.19]for its watches during a launch event on Wednesday.
[00:11.83]The event was held inside the Steve Jobs Theater
[00:17.16]at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, California.
[00:22.59]One of the new phones is a larger version of the company's
[00:28.73]pricey iPhone X, which launched last fall.
[00:34.37]The new model is called iPhone Xs Max.
[00:39.75]It has a screen size of 16.5 centimeters,
[00:45.34]making it Apple's biggest smartphone yet.
[00:50.41]As with the iPhone X, the Xs Max has a screen
[00:57.12]that runs from edge to edge to provide more viewing space.
[01:02.72]The phone's screen also needs no backlight,
[01:06.89]so black and other colors are supposed to appear truer than on previous devices.
[01:14.26]The iPhone Xs Max will cost $1099, up from the $999 price of the iPhone X.
[01:27.69]Another new model, called iPhone Xs, is smaller than the iPhone 8 Plus,
[01:36.31]but actually has a larger, 14.7 centimeters, viewable display.
[01:44.12]The company says both the Xs and Xs Max models
[01:50.83]are equipped with an improved version of Face ID,
[01:55.40]which first launched with the iPhone X.
[01:59.61]Face ID permits users to unlock their devices just by looking at them.
[02:07.05]The iPhone Xs is priced at $999.
[02:13.87]Apple says the Xs and Xs Max versions
[02:19.44]include the "most powerful chip" found in any smartphone.
[02:24.92]In addition, the devices use a "dual-camera system" the company
[02:31.45]says produces much-improved picture quality.
[02:36.13]This system combines faster processing speeds
[02:40.26]with what Apple describes as a "neural engine."
[02:44.96]With these tools working together,
[02:47.86]the camera can automatically improve things like lighting,
[02:52.32]sharpness and depth of field, Apple says.
[02:57.42]The third newly launched device is called iPhone XR.
[03:04.94]Made of aluminum, it has an edge to edge LCD display measuring 15.5 centimeters.
[03:14.40]The iPhone XR comes equipped with Face ID, but only a single lens camera.
[03:22.47]It is designed with fewer features than the other models to cut costs.
[03:28.66]The iPhone XR sells for $749.
[03:35.51]The new iPhone models will be available in the coming weeks
[03:40.29]in the United States and many other parts of the world.
[03:44.44]At its launch event, Apple also announced new versions
[03:50.21]and expanded features of its Apple Watch devices.
[03:55.46]The new Apple Watch Series 4 will be a bit larger than current models,
[04:01.99]coming in 40 millimeter and 44 millimeter versions.
[04:07.58]Apple says this will provide a screen
[04:11.32]that is about 30 percent larger than the Series 3 models.
[04:16.49]The Series 4 will also be built with a stronger back made of ceramic.
[04:23.00]Some of the Apple Watch's most popular features
[04:28.01]deal with tools to help users improve their health and fitness.
[04:33.29]Several improvements were announced related to these features.
[04:38.67]For example, the Series 4 will be able to detect
[04:43.48]when someone has an irregular heartbeat and send a warning message to the user.
[04:50.63]Apple said the devices can also gather more detailed
[04:55.73]heart health information known as an electrocardiogram.
[05:01.50]The watches also have a feature that is supposed to detect when a person falls.
[05:07.87]Apple says the watch can even automatically make a 911 emergency call
[05:14.88]for help if the person does not begin moving within a minute.
[05:20.86]Apple also used the launch event to announce
[05:25.35]that its new iPhone X devices will be equipped with dual SIM card technology.
[05:33.11]This means the devices will be able to hold both a nano-SIM and eSIM inside.
[05:41.49]An eSim can be controlled virtually
[05:45.02]and does not have to be placed physically inside the phone.
[05:50.09]This dual SIM technology can permit users to use two phone lines with their device.
[05:58.03]It will also make it easier for users to change phone service carriers
[06:04.04]without having to get new SIM cards directly from company providers.
[06:10.20]Apple announced that new phones launched in China
[06:14.59]will be equipped with spaces for two physical SIM cards,
[06:19.40]since eSim technology has not fully developed there.
[06:24.52]The technology had already been available on some of Apple's iPad and Apple Watch devices.
[06:32.72]Apple CEO Cook said the company is already working
[06:37.08]with phone carriers on how the new technology will be used.

END OF TRACK. "END OF TRACK." The two men bowed. "Whoever was that person you were talking to?" she enquired, as soon as they stood together. The took of triumph faded from her eyes, she had grown worn and weary. The roses were wilting on the walls, the lights were mostly down now. Hetty, looking in to see if anything was wanted, found herself driven away almost fiercely. I only saw Master Jervie once when he called at tea time, The year 1747 was opened by measures of restriction. The House of Lords, offended at the publication of the proceedings of the trial of Lord Lovat, summoned the parties to their bar, committed them to prison, and refused to liberate them till they had pledged themselves not to repeat the offence, and had paid very heavy fees. The consequence of this was that the transactions of the Peers were almost entirely suppressed for nearly thirty years from this time, and we draw our knowledge of them chiefly from notes taken by Horace Walpole and Lord Chancellor Hardwicke. What is still more remarkable, the reports of the House of Commons, being taken by stealth, and on the merest sufferance, are of the most meagre kind, sometimes altogether wanting, and the speeches are given uniformly under fictitious names; for to have attributed to Pitt or Pelham their[112] speeches by name would have brought down on the printers the summary vengeance of the House. Many of the members complained bitterly of this breach of the privileges of Parliament, and of "being put into print by low fellows"; but Pelham had the sense to tolerate them, saying, "Let them alone; they make better speeches for us than we can make for ourselves." Altogether, the House of Commons exhibited the most deplorable aspect that can be conceived. The Ministry had pursued Walpole's system of buying up opponents by place, or pension, or secret service money, till there was no life left in the House. Ministers passed their measures without troubling themselves to say much in their behalf; and the opposition dwindled to Sir John Hinde Cotton, now dismissed from office, and a feeble remnant of Jacobites raised but miserable resistance. In vain the Prince of Wales and the secret instigations of Bolingbroke and Doddington stimulated the spirit of discontent; both Houses had degenerated into most silent and insignificant arenas of very commonplace business. "It certainly will be. Miss Widgeon," answered Maria, with strictly "company manners." "One who has never had a brother exposed to the constant dangers of army life can hardly understand how glad we all feel to have Si snatched from the very jaws of death and brung back to us." "Just plug at 'em as you would at a crow, and then go on your way whistlin'?" persisted Harry. "Hurroo!" echoed Hennessey; "that's the ticket." "Come forward, keeper," continued the baron, "and state how these arrows came into your hands!" "Yes." HoMEJULIA京香2018下载
