Although Apple didn't make too many ads in
the interface, but 30 needle Dock interface has become the standard of Apple
portable equipment in the past few years.
Since the first generation of iPod
published, Apple interface line's change is very little and keeps unifying
specification. Many other mobile phone products' charger and data line have
changed in constant and some are even just one line for one phone. Stable
iPhone accessories have been
liked by manufacturers in the market.
Relying on Apple, peripheral products
manufacturers formed a huge ecological circle. But the ecological circle has a
big "unrest" because of the new iPhone interface's small change. And
even the small manufacturer's fate is at stake.
Apple's peripheral products including Apple
charging base, Apple speakers, iPhone
cases and many other species create at least a $1.3 billion market
every year. Apple traditional interface design has been used by more than 600 million
iPod, iPhone and iPad, and has adopted by tens of thousands of third party
accessories manufacturers.
The insider says, when the manufacturers of
speakers, base, car chargers and other iPhone
accessories see apple-this big cake, most of them choose to use Dock
interface. Working with all Apple portable equipment, Apple firmly controls
peripherals manufacturers.
In the past, manufacturers that obtained
authorization management "Apple" accessories should pay related fees
to Apple Company, including mobile power supply, Bluetooth keyboard/headset,
all kinds of converter, data line, etc. With data line as an example: they
should pay 5 ~ 6 dollars to Apple Company for each data line.
Apple executives clearly know this, because
Apple itself also sells products accessories and keeps the good relationship
with the third party accessories manufacturers. The sources are revealing that
according to Apple authorized plan, in order to get the Apple's official
approval, the third party manufacturers need to pay $4 authorized expenses for
Apple when they sell one accessory. Moreover, Apple is also very concerned to
product accessories market. In a lawsuit of 2010, Apple has said that some
unauthorized iPod cable. Charger and speakers exist suspected of patent
infringement.
iPhone 5 interface becomes smaller which is
the mission given by innovation for Apple company. In order to keep strong vitality,
they must do "pursuing new and requiring change". The small change
perhaps will change a solid year of ecological system.
