How hard does Apple fight for secrecy? Specially went to Jamaica to secretly register the "Smart Island" trademark of iPhone 14 Pro.

CTOnews.com, September 11 (Xinhua)-- Apple this week unveiled its latest iPhone 14 / Pro model, which uses an "exclamation point" panel with holes in conjunction with iOS 16's "Smart Island" to turn disadvantages into strengths, prompting many fans to call it amazing.

In the previous predictions or renderings, it was agreed that Apple's iPhone 14 Pro series would use the industry's original "exclamation point screen". Only in the end did anyone find that this "exclamation point" could be hidden through UI, but no one ever mentioned "Smart Island" related news.

This is rare on iPhone, which is completely leaked before the annual launch, which shows that Apple's secrecy work this year is excellent.

Bloomberg Mark Gurman pointed out that in order to protect patents at the same time and avoid being dug up by "trademark detectives", Apple sent staff to Jamaica in July, where it filed its first global patent application for Dynamic Island, reducing the risk of leakage to a very low level.

CTOnews.com learned that Smart Island is a UI interaction designed by Apple to make up for the shortcomings of the punched screen, thus cleverly avoiding the shortcomings of the screen panel itself, increasing the screen share while making it as playable and interesting as possible.
