Not to point out the obvious, but the two different products offer contrasting user experiences, most notably in the operating systems.
网上查了一下,发现Not to point out the obvious, but... 这种句式比比皆是。
请问其意思是不是:显而易见的是.....?
我把上面这句处理成了:
这两款不同的产品提供了形成鲜明对照的使用体验,尤其是在操作系统方面,这点显而易见。
不知是否对头。

谢谢赐教!

My guess Feb 10, 2014

Hi clearwater,

我觉得大致意思是 “抛开其他大家都熟悉的(情况、事实)不谈,我来讲些(新鲜的/独到的)观点” 。希望对你有帮助!

歇后语 Feb 10, 2014

给出 的翻译应是可以的。

Not to point out the obvious, but
用一句歇后语表达一下会有点意思:
虽然这是秃子头上的虱子——明摆着的事儿,但是我还是要指出来。

這種句式都是英語好玩的地方 Feb 10, 2014

同意樓上幾位所講的。

多口說一句,這種問題放到Kudoz比較好,這樣比較歸一。要是想在Kudoz 多發問題,可以考慮購買Proz 會籍。
