Produk Apple 2024 – Apple selalu menjadi pusat perhatian di dunia teknologi, dan tahun 2024 tidak berbeda. Dengan peluncuran berbagai produk baru, seperti iPhone 16, Vision Pro, hingga Chip M4, Apple berhasil menggemparkan pasar global. Namun, tidak semua produk ini memenuhi ekspektasi pengguna. Mari kita ulas mana yang berhasil mencuri hati dan mana yang menuai kritik.
Inovasi Terbaik Apple di 2024
1. Chip M4: Teknologi di Ujung Jari
Chip M4, yang pertama kali diperkenalkan pada Mei 2024, adalah bintang di lini produk Apple tahun ini. Dibangun dengan teknologi 3 nanometer generasi kedua, chip ini memberikan performa luar biasa pada iPad Pro dan Mac Mini.
- Keunggulan Utama:
- Performa hingga 38 triliun operasi per detik.
- Mendukung layar Ultra Retina XDR dengan presisi dan kecerahan tinggi.
- Efisiensi daya yang mengesankan, membuat perangkat lebih tipis dan ringan.
Chip ini juga memberikan keunggulan besar dalam pembelajaran mesin (machine learning) dan aplikasi berbasis AI, menjadikannya favorit di kalangan profesional kreatif.
2. Mac Mini: Kecil, Ringan, dan Bertenaga
Mac Mini 2024 menjadi salah satu perangkat Apple yang paling dicintai tahun ini. Dengan desain yang lebih kecil menyerupai Apple TV dan lima port USB-C, perangkat ini menawarkan kombinasi sempurna antara portabilitas dan kinerja.

Meskipun USB-A dihilangkan, Apple mempertahankan port HDMI, membuatnya tetap relevan untuk berbagai kebutuhan profesional. Tidak hanya itu, harganya yang lebih terjangkau dibandingkan MacBook Pro menjadikan Mac Mini favorit pengguna baru maupun lama.
Tantangan dan Kritik Produk Apple 2024
1. iPhone 16: Masalah di Layar Sentuh
Meskipun membawa iOS 18 dan fitur canggih lainnya, iPhone 16 menuai kritik karena masalah respons layar sentuh. Banyak pengguna melaporkan bahwa layar sering mengabaikan sentuhan, terutama di dekat tepi perangkat.
- Penyebab Utama:
- Bezel yang lebih tipis membuat algoritma penolakan sentuhan terlalu sensitif.
- Bug perangkat lunak di iOS 18.
Masalah ini mengganggu pengalaman pengguna, terutama saat mengetik atau menggulir layar. Untungnya, Apple sedang berusaha memperbaikinya melalui pembaruan perangkat lunak.
2. Vision Pro: Kacamata Futuristik yang Berat di Kantong
Apple Vision Pro hadir sebagai inovasi besar di dunia AR/VR, tetapi sayangnya tidak semua pengguna terkesan. Dibanderol dengan harga $3.500 (sekitar Rp54 juta), perangkat ini menghadapi banyak kritik terkait kenyamanan dan fungsionalitas.

- Kritik Utama:
- Bobot perangkat yang terlalu berat di bagian depan, menyebabkan ketidaknyamanan.
- Beberapa pengguna mengalami pusing, mual, bahkan sakit kepala setelah penggunaan jangka pendek.
- Pilihan aplikasi yang terbatas membuat perangkat ini kurang menarik bagi gamer dan pengguna hiburan.
Meskipun demikian, Vision Pro tetap menjadi tonggak penting dalam perjalanan inovasi Apple.
Ringkasan Produk Apple 2024
Tahun 2024 menjadi bukti bahwa Apple terus mendorong batasan teknologi. Chip M4 dan Mac Mini adalah bintang terang, sementara iPhone 16 dan Vision Pro menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada inovasi yang sempurna.

The Fate of iPhone 16 in Indonesia: What Happened?
The launch of the iPhone 16 in Indonesia is still a mystery. Although it has been released globally, Apple's latest flagship device has not received official permission to be marketed in the country.
