升级iPhone 7动力不足 中国'果粉'选择以旧改新（在线收听） |
Some Chinese iPhone owners are giving their old models a makeover to look like the latest iPhone 7, rather than buying new - a trend that could dent Apple Inc's efforts to boost sales in what has been its biggest growth driver. 部分中国iPhone用户没有购买新机，而是纷纷把手头的旧款iPhone加以改造，使其看起来就像最新款的iPhone 7，这一趋势可能让苹果公司提振iPhone销售的努力受到打击，而iPhone本是苹果最大的增长驱动力。
Online sites offer shoppers makeover kits, false cameras and even dust plugs to hide the removed headphone jack to give their iPhone 6 or 6S the appearance of the iPhone 7.
线上网站为买家提供了改装套件、假摄像头，甚至还有掩盖被取消的耳机孔的防尘塞，让买家的iPhone 6或6S看起来跟iPhone 7没有两样。
The makeover quirk mirrors a broader view among some Chinese users that the iPhone 7 doesn't have enough new features to convince them to trade up.
这波改装热潮反映出部分中国用户的共同想法，即iPhone 7没有足够多的新功能打动他们更换手机。
