Not perfect but attractive enough, plus a mobile phone 2 long experience.

In the evaluation of IT 168, there is a saying that "flowers bloom inside the wall, but the fragrance is outside the wall". There are also some such mobile phone brands in the mobile phone circle. They may not be well known in the local market, but they are really popular in overseas markets. One plus mobile phone is such a mobile phone brand. The first mobile phone Oneplus One launched by the brand has gained a lot of fans in overseas markets. However, due to the long time to market, some configurations have become inadequate. Therefore, after dormant for 15 months, one plus mobile phone 2 with comprehensive evolution in appearance and configuration was finally launched. Of course, adding your own mobile phone system hydrogen OS comes with you. Although the system is optimized on the native Android 5. 1 system, it is quite different from the traditional domestic mobile phone system in terms of UI design and functional experience. However, due to the newly released mobile phone system, the overall experience of one plus mobile phone 2 did not reach the best at the beginning of listing. According to the actual use at that time, the author really wouldn't strongly recommend this one.

But as the saying goes, looking at the world from a development perspective, even the best system has a process of gradual improvement, and even the best mobile phone is also optimized step by step. With this idea, the author started a two-month experience with one plus mobile phone 2 as the main model. In this process, the author did find some small problems that will be encountered in daily use, and was also mad because of individual system bugs; But there are always some bright spots on the one plus mobile phone 2, so you can't put it down and stick to it. With the improvement of a hydrogenated OS, the experience of one plus mobile phone 2 has stabilized. Although it is not perfect, you will easily find reasons to love it. First of all, let's review the hardware parameters and configuration of this plus flagship.

Objectively speaking, as a flagship mobile phone, one plus mobile phone 2 does not pursue hardware excessively; On the contrary, one plus mobile phone 2 has chosen appropriate conservatism, especially the lack of 2K display, full netcom and fast charging functions. After all, if you want a Snapdragon 8 10 model to reach the price of 2000 yuan, you must give it up. But with the popularity of smart phones, many users have begun to realize that the experience is the most important thing for smart phones. Therefore, through two months of in-depth experience, the author will share some feelings in the process of use with everyone, hoping to help everyone buy a mobile phone.

Speaking of the appearance of one plus mobile phone 2, I have to say that this is a mobile phone that makes people love and hate clearly. Because digital enthusiasts and geeks are the main audiences, one plus 1 mobile phone 2 is more masculine in appearance. Even with the back cover made of five different materials, one plus 1 mobile phone 2 still fails to provide a more suitable choice for women. Objectively speaking, this is a pity, but it is also a helpless move. There are always trade-offs in good design.

Suspended screen design: There is a reason for this.

In terms of appearance, one plus mobile phone 2 retains the previous floating screen design, and the screen is surrounded by plastic edges instead of embedded metal frames. This design has caused some controversy. Some netizens said that the design will bring a certain sense of separation and the sense of smoothness will be lost. The author believes that metal and glass screens often need isolation belts for buffering, and such a floating screen design can not only effectively protect the screen, but also reduce the proportion of metal materials and effectively reduce the weight of the fuselage. Of course, the floating screen design is the same as the fuselage outline of the one plus mobile phone 2, which can be regarded as the iconic design of the one plus mobile phone, so it should also be considered in this respect. From the actual experience, this layered design does not significantly reduce the grip, but the tough lines and small chamfers of the fuselage will make it awkward for users with small hands.

When it comes to the floating screen design, you have to mention the only button on the front of the fuselage, which is also a Home button that cannot be pressed. This button also integrates the popular fingerprint recognition function. In my opinion, one plus mobile phone 2 is the fingerprint mobile phone I have ever seen, and the design of fingerprint identification button is the most integrated with the whole machine. The metal ring and the sensing area are all black consistent with the panel, and the symmetrical design makes more users feel more beautiful. Of course, about the fingerprint identification experience of this machine, the author will introduce it in detail in the system experience part, so I won't say much here.

Three-stage sliding switch: the practical degree varies from person to person.

One plus mobile phone 2 is designed with a metal frame. On both sides of the metal frame are three-stage sliding switches, power supply and volume keys. Needless to say, the exquisiteness of the power and volume buttons can be better. As for the original three-stage sliding switch on the left side of the fuselage, the author thinks it is a good design. With the help of the sliding switch, the user can switch to mute mode or do not disturb mode with one key; Frankly speaking, I don't use this button very often. I believe this button should be used more for some business people. But this sliding button feels very good. To paraphrase a phrase often used in automobile evaluation, it is "clear gear", and the vibration feedback generated when sliding the button will make you feel forced to fiddle twice at will.

Customized back cover: a must-see for patients with difficulty in choosing.

In addition to the above two points, everyone is most concerned about the design appearance of the back cover of the mobile phone 2. One plus mobile phone 2 is designed with a detachable back cover. Speaking of this, there is still a shortcoming to complain about: because the back cover is embedded in the metal frame, the metal frame at the opening of the back cover becomes very thin, and users need to pry the back cover open with nails or other tools, at the cost that nails softer than the metal frame will be scratched by the frame, while materials harder than the metal frame will scratch the frame. Therefore, the opening mode of the back cover of one plus mobile phone 2 is the deficiency in the detailed design of the machine.

Just now, we mentioned that Yijia 1 Mobile Phone 2*** provides five kinds of back covers, including sandstone black by default when purchasing, and customized versions of bamboo, black apricot, sour branch and Kevlar back covers. According to feedback from netizens, Suanzhi and Kevlar are the most popular customized back covers, and the default sandstone black also has a good feel. In my opinion, these five back covers can be roughly divided into three categories: one is the thinnest black back cover of sandstone, which feels more TM cool; The second is the natural back cover including sour branches, black apricots and bamboo; Then there is the Kevlar back cover made of composite aramid fiber.

From the author's experience, the three natural back covers have the heaviest literary atmosphere, but they are also the most personalized, which is more suitable for literary youth or users with high personalized needs; Among the five kinds of back covers, Kevlar is the most suitable material to improve the exquisiteness and body design of mobile phones. This back cover is also the author's favorite, and it feels like leather, which is more suitable for users who are low-key and introverted but pursue the ultimate. Of course, the above four back covers are made of custom materials and have a thick thickness. Users who like thin and light are still recommended to use the original sandstone black back cover. Compared with the first generation, the rough matte texture of the back cover has been further improved, and at the same time, with the back cover, the mobile phone can be made thinner.

Generally speaking, the design of one plus mobile phone 2 is successful. Even if it fails to cover most female users, it still needs to be improved in some details, but its tough design style and excellent feel brought by the curved body are its plus points. The addition of customized back cover also provides users with more choices. Different from other customized mobile phones, the function of changing the back cover at will also adds a lot of fun to the experience of this machine. Which one is a little tired, just change it.

Speaking of the system, one plus mobile phone 2 adopts its latest hydrogen OS, based on Android 5. 1 optimization, adopts the so-called hydrogen window and hydrogen expression, insists on subtraction in design concept, and only retains the design elements needed by users; At the same time, the hydrogen OS adopts a completely different interface style from the existing mobile phone operating system, which brings some new experiences in the operation mode. In order to let everyone know more about the system, the author only interprets the functions that everyone uses more every day.

Is there a limit to the personalization of hydrogen OS interface?

Due to the cancellation of the traditional wallpaper display form and only allowing users to exchange the wallpaper of the hydrogen window, the experience of personalized setting of the hydrogen OS interface has become a very concerned issue for many users. First of all, it should be noted that the hydrogen OS does not allow users to modify icon styles, including by theme. However, users can add their favorite wallpaper in the hydrogen window, and the global UI of the system will provide five different background colors according to the wallpaper color you set. However, it is worth mentioning that these five background colors are all extracted from the hydrogen window wallpaper you set, which will make the style of the global UI more unified, but it will also limit the setting of the background color, and users will inevitably encounter the overall effect of the system UI is not ideal.

What is the fluency and ease of use of hydrogen OS?

Hydrogen OS is optimized on Android 5. 1 system, and the fluency of the system naturally has a solid foundation. With the continuous optimization and update of hydrogen OS, the smoothness of the system can be described as silky, and the stability has also been greatly improved. The phenomenon of occasional flashback in the initial stage of listing has long been solved. As for ease of use, the hydrogen OS adds a lot of sliding operations, such as sliding up from the bottom of the screen at any interface, which can directly bring up various shortcut switches; For example, slide down on the main interface of the system, and quickly search for applications through pinyin retrieval.

For a smart phone with a 5.5-inch screen, sliding within the reach of your fingers is the fastest and most convenient, because you can't move your fingers in a large range. Although this design has also appeared in smartphones of brands such as vivo and IUNI, the quick operation interface of hydrogen OS exhalation includes the quick start area of common programs at the top (including flashlight, recording, taking photos, etc.). ) and the quick switch operation area at the bottom can not only clearly realize more quick operations, but also not be too messy, which is a more humanized design.

How is the card-type SMS experience?

In the process of the author's experience, the card-type SMS provided by the hydrogen OS can really greatly optimize the display of SMS. Taking the short message of verification code as an example, hydrogen OS can directly extract key information for display, including the source and validity period of verification code, so that users can quickly understand the information they need when browsing, which is very user-friendly. Of course, the use of this function is still relatively limited, and we also expect that with the continuous upgrading and optimization of the system, more SMS types will be compatible with this function.

Of course, in addition to this display form, for notification messages such as train tickets and boarding passes, the hydrogen OS can directly generate cards similar to electronic tickets, which can be directly called by users by double-clicking the hydrogen window in the main interface of the system, which is very convenient for business travelers. Of course, this function also has limitations. At present, most ticket information pushed by third-party booking platforms cannot be displayed in this form, and only the information sent by official numbers like 12306 can be recognized and transformed. I believe this should be a problem of database scope, which should be further expanded in the future.

How is the fingerprint identification experience?

Fingerprint identification is a newly added security auxiliary function of one plus mobile phone 2. Through this function, users can unlock their mobile phones and pay Alipay. Although the Home button on the front of one plus mobile phone 2 integrates the fingerprint recognition function, it cannot be pressed like many similarly designed mobile phones. Although this will make many users uncomfortable at the beginning of use, with the adjustment of usage habits, the experience of unlocking the phone with one button will still attract many people. Of course, this button can be used as the Home button at the same time, and it is designed in a form that cannot be pressed, which also helps to unify the touch of the three operation buttons. After all, the multitask key and the return key on both sides of the Home key are in the form of capacitive keys.

As for the efficiency and stability of fingerprint identification, I believe many users who pay attention to the forum have also noticed the low fingerprint identification rate of individual users in the early stage of the release of the machine. The author has also encountered this problem, but with the continuous optimization and update of the system, this problem has already been well solved. Now, in the case of locking the screen, the success rate of fingerprint unlocking of one plus mobile phone 2 is basically above 90%. It should be noted that some users in the forum report that the recognition rate is still low after the system is updated. I suggest updating the system before taking fingerprints, because the official has improved the input and identification.

Systematically, limited by the length of the article, the author can't introduce his real experience one by one, but can only focus on the aspects that everyone cares about. On the whole, the hydrogen OS is far from perfect, but it is stable enough. At the same time, the convenient and quick operation mode also gives the machine a unique advantage in ease of use. Coupled with the unique functional experience such as the fresh and concise UI interface and card-type SMS, the system can still gather many users, especially heavy mobile phone users.

As one of the official publicity focuses in the initial stage of the listing of One Plus Mobile Phone 2, the camera function is also a function point that many potential users are extremely concerned about. As we have seen before, one plus mobile phone 2 uses a camera combination of front 5 million and rear13 million pixels. At first glance, the imaging configuration of one plus mobile phone 2 seems to be no different from many low-end mobile phones now, but a closer look will reveal many differences. One plus mobile phone 2 uses a13 megapixel rear camera from OV, with a sensor area of 1/2.6 inches and a single pixel area of 1.3 micron, which is the top level among cameras with the same pixel at present. Coupled with the camera's F2.0 aperture and laser focusing function, the imaging configuration of one plus mobile phone 2 is not powerful.

In terms of software, the camera interface of one plus mobile phone 2 is very simple at first glance, and there seems to be not many camera modes or specific functions. But once you slide up and down in the scenic spot, you will find more camera modes, including slow-motion photography, time-lapse photography, automatic mode, manual mode and video recording. In the automatic mode, users can also choose the image quality enhancement function, which can obviously improve the image quality of photos. In this regard, the author also compares the effect of the image quality plus mode on night scenes. It can be seen that the image quality plus mode and the image quality plus mode can be obviously different, even in extremely dark nights, this difference is visible to the naked eye, which is enough to see how strong the image quality plus mode is.

Of course, at the beginning of its launch, the official was most proud of its accurate white balance. In this regard, the author also conducted relevant tests and filmed in different environments. In the end, no matter whether the light is sufficient and the color is rich, or the light is dim and the color is relatively simple, one plus mobile phone 2 can restore the actual color of the subject as close as possible, which also verifies the performance of one plus official photo white balance for one plus mobile phone 2. Next, let's take a closer look at the sample of one plus mobile phone 2. If you need to see a big picture, just click on the picture.

Through the above proofs, it is not difficult to find that the imaging quality of one plus mobile phone 2 has indeed reached the top level in the same level, especially in white balance. Of course, the13 megapixel main camera can also ensure that the proofs of one plus mobile phone 2 can get enough picture details, and the addition of F2.0 aperture can also make the daily photo taking process stable and efficient. It can be said that the camera function of one plus mobile phone 2 is not the most powerful in the current flagship mobile phone, but it has its own specialties, and it can reach above average in other aspects, which is enough to be worthy of its price starting from 1999 yuan.

What is the actual experience of Snapdragon 8 10 frequency reduction?

One Plus 1 Mobile Phone 2 was confirmed to be equipped with Snapdragon 8 10 processor before it went on the market, which was questioned by the majority of mobile phone users in terms of performance and heat control. This questioning voice is justified. Snapdragon 8 10 processor really caused great troubles to users and manufacturers at the initial stage of listing. Although one plus has repeatedly stressed that one plus mobile phone 2 will not overheat under the condition of ensuring performance, many users still hold a wait-and-see attitude in the initial stage of the launch of the machine. However, with the deepening of the author's experience, I have a more comprehensive understanding of the performance and fever of the machine.

Frankly speaking, even if the frequency is reduced, Snapdragon 8 10 can still provide strong support in users' daily use: without playing large-scale games, one plus mobile phone 2 will not only get stuck, but also will not get hot; In the case of running large 3D games such as Wild Racing 8, the game loading time of one plus mobile phone 2 is indeed a little slower than that of Snapdragon 8 10 model with full firepower, but the actual game running experience will not be affected. There is no obvious jam on the screen, and there is indeed a fever, but it is not exaggerated. The measured data are also consistent with the information we provided before. It can be said that one plus mobile phone 2 basically tamed the "grumpy" Snapdragon 8 10 without affecting the overall experience.

Is the battery life of 3000mAh enough?

One-plus 1 mobile phone 2 is equipped with Snapdragon 8 10 processor and 5.5-inch 1080P display screen, with built-in non-removable battery and capacity of 3300mAh. Such hardware data will not bring long battery life, and the actual experience also verifies this. For a heavy mobile phone user like the author, one plus mobile phone 2 can only barely last for one day. In the case of reduced frequency of use, one plus mobile phone 2 can also achieve a battery life of about 2 days, which really depends on personal usage habits.

Of course, for most office workers, it is not a very troublesome thing to charge the battery at will, not to mention that one plus mobile phone 2 is also equipped with a positive and negative pluggable Type C USB interface. As for the charging speed, the author uses 5V 2A power supply to charge, which can basically achieve the actual effect of charging 50% in half an hour. This is a good result for one plus mobile phone 2 without turbo fast charging. In daily use, you won't feel that the charging speed of this machine is inferior.

Is one plus mobile phone 2 worth buying?

Speaking of this, I believe many users have a good idea. One plus mobile phone 2 is really not perfect, it still has some shortcomings, but for a new system that is still being optimized and upgraded, these shortcomings can be improved or made up. On the contrary, since the birth of One Plus Mobile Phone 2, there have been many experiences that can't be optimized by high-end mobile phones, especially the unique hydrogen OS system and the extremely clear appearance of the whole machine for the target population, which are the reasons that attract the author to continue to use it. Perhaps one plus mobile phone 2 was not a high-end flagship worthy of recommendation at the beginning of its listing. After all, the hydrogen OS at that time was still immature, but for the current one plus mobile phone 2, it is indeed a smart phone worthy of recommendation. After all, it only costs 1999 yuan. At the same price and the same configuration, it is really hard for us to find a better model than one plus mobile phone 2.

Purchase instructions

One plus mobile phone 2 is not a full netcom model, but a dual netcom model of China Mobile Unicom, which is fully compatible with China Mobile and China Unicom's 2G/3G/4G networks. At the same time, the machine supports dual card dual standby function, which can realize dual 4G blind insertion and switch 4G networks with one button. It is worth mentioning that the dual card slot of one plus mobile phone 2 is located inside the fuselage, so you can take it out with your fingers as long as you open the back cover, without the help of third-party tools such as card needles, which is a more intimate design.

In addition, users who like to customize the back cover should note that the customized back cover needs to be purchased separately. When placing an order in official website, if you choose a customized back cover, it will be shipped together with the original sandstone black back cover.
