Apple responds to the controversy about the Year of the Dragon phone case: product information is mainly on the official website

According to news on January 23, Apple’s official website recently launched a “Year of the Dragon Special Edition” mobile phone case OtterBox Lumen, mainly for the iPhone 15 series, with a price of up to 498 yuan.

However, some netizens later pointed out: In traditional Chinese culture, "five claws are dragons and four claws are pythons", which actually means that pythons are dragons.

In response, Apple customer service responded that after seeing the pictures on the official website, the situation will be recorded in detail. However, whether the official website pictures and products will be updated in the future need to be subject to the official website updates.

In ancient times, dragons basically had three claws. Sometimes the front two legs had three claws and the back two legs had four claws. Examples can be found in the porcelain decorations of the Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties. Four-clawed dragons were popular in the Ming Dynasty, while five-clawed dragons were more common in the Qing Dynasty.

The folk saying that "five claws are a dragon and four claws are a python" was formed in the Qing Dynasty. It was mainly used as a distinction between the decorations on the clothes of the emperor and his ministers. The emperor wore "dragon" Other royal families and ministers wear "python robes", but this is only a difference in name. In terms of dragon form, both dragons and pythons are four-legged snakes, with no difference in shape.

The new mobile phone case is carefully drawn by the well-known illustrator Yulong Lli. It uses gorgeous peony fireworks patterns, curly flowing lines and bright colors to vividly show the brave spirit of the dragon, implying happiness and auspiciousness.

Lumen series phone cases are comfortable to hold, slim and portable, can withstand strong impacts, are embedded with MagSafe magnets, and have passed the Drop test. It's made from 50% recycled materials and has raised edges to protect the camera and screen. In addition, the phone case also comes with a half-year free warranty.
