Yan value, cost performance and glory V9 gameplay evaluation

IT 168 Evaluation Today's mobile phone market, with the development of the whole user's consumption upgrade, the task of product segmentation is getting heavier and heavier, and it is difficult to see a situation in which one product dominates the world. For a brand, after spending a lot of resources to establish a prominent brand series, it is a flattering practice to make some configuration changes to mature products, while retaining the essence of its series, so that more users can better accept the same series of products through price adjustment. Obviously, the glory V9 play is such a product. For the glory V series, which has been in operation for two years and has a certain good brand image in the market, glory V9 play can be regarded as a downward extension product based on market segmentation requirements. So today, let's take a look at the first derivative model of Glory V series, and what product it is.

Glory V9 play is built for young people, so it will be different from glory V9 in hardware configuration. From the pricing point of view, glory V9 play is more in the name of glory V9. On the basis of continuing the classic red and blue color matching of glory, the configuration is streamlined, the dimension is reduced, and the price is impacted by thousands of files. In this part of the article, we look at the hardware configuration of Glory V9 play through tables.

From the hardware configuration point of view, glory V9 play is a standard thousand yuan machine configuration. Using MediaTek eight nuclear processor, the standard version of 3GB RAM, and the high version is also equipped with 4GB RAM. In addition to these superficial configurations, Glory has adopted the proud "Glory Quality Test" on every machine, and added the reliability TTF test (commonly known as "test to death") during the test process to find out the quality shortcomings of mobile phone products in time and correct them. Even on the thousand yuan machine, we can have the same quality assurance as flagship machine.

appearance design

As a derivative model of glory V9, glory V9 play inherits the "high face value" gene of the previous work in appearance, and it is still a minimalist design with a thin metal body, which reproduces the classic "red and blue CP" color matching of aurora blue and charming flame red. Let's take a closer look at the design highlights of Glory V9 play.

The overall shape of Glory V9 play is round, the front is covered with a layer of 2.5D glass, and the four sides are rounded and transitional, which has the same fullness as water drops. Equipped with a 5.2-inch high-definition screen, the top is equipped with an 8 megapixel front camera, a light distance sensor and an earpiece speaker. Because the width of the frame is well controlled, the visual impression of the whole machine is very comfortable and durable.

On the back of the fuselage, Glory V9 play adopts a three-stage fuselage design, and the middle part is an aluminum alloy back shell, which is made by stamping, polishing, anodizing, sandblasting, CNC and other processes. The middle frame and the upper and lower sections are filled with polycarbonate to ensure signal overflow. It is worth mentioning that at the seams of the three-stage fuselage, the design of high-gloss T-groove is adopted, and the prominent lines are used as the lining, which makes the whole machine look more exquisite.

The back of Glory V9 play is perfectly symmetrical, with a13 megapixel sensor in the center, equipped with a flash, and a circular opening for fingerprint recognition below. This fingerprint identification can not only unlock the screen, but also expand more applications, such as the shutter when taking a selfie, and one-finger flash payment in the mobile payment scene.

The middle frame of Glory V9 play has a bright metallic texture, but the back shell has a slightly restrained metallic matte texture. The sharp contrast and collision between these textures bring a good product temperament, which is more in line with the young people's pursuit of unique personality. According to our understanding, it is not easy to achieve different textures on the same material. It took the glory team a year of exploration and practice to truly achieve mass production.

At the bottom of the fuselage, the glory V9 play is still a regular symmetrical design. Speakers and microphones are arranged left and right, with a micro USB interface in the middle, which is very orderly. There is only a 3.5mm earphone hole at the top, and the thickness of the whole machine is controlled at 7.65mm, which is thinner in the hand.

In terms of color matching, Glory V9 play provides Aurora Blue, Charming Flame Red, Magic Night Black and Platinum Light Gold. The red and blue CP, which was once popular on the glory V9, is also a good inheritance. I believe it will capture the hearts of many young consumers. After all, this proud CP style is not available for every model.

EMUI 5. 1 experience

Glory V9 play is pre-installed with EMUI5. 1 system based on Android 7.0 deep customization. While constantly improving localization services, we pay more attention to optimizing the bottom layer of the system, so that consumers can get a smoother experience of using Android models.

The design of EMUI 5. 1 is more concise and natural, with white and plain blue as the main colors, and the system icons are redrawn to some extent, and more bright blocks are used to fill them, which is more youthful and lively, which coincides with the youthful positioning of Glory V9 play. Moreover, EMUI 5. 1 simplifies the interface and content presentation, so that 90% of common operations can be completed in 3 steps, and the operation is more handy.

The biggest highlight of EMUI 5. 1 is the introduction of artificial intelligence technology. Through machine learning algorithm, the mobile phone system can better understand the user's behavior habits, and predict the user's behavior on this basis, and schedule the system resources such as CPU, GPU and storage in advance, so that the resource allocation is more timely and reasonable.

EMUI's "negative one screen" has been redesigned, integrating the functions of application recommendation, sports health, situational intelligence, life service and so on, and presented in a card style. This paper focuses on the function of situational intelligence. After opening, the mobile phone will analyze the short message information and generate corresponding cards for presentation. For example, if the author receives the scheduled SMS of the flight, the mobile phone will automatically pick up the flight information and add the timetable, thus helping us to plan the travel time and route reasonably, which is very intelligent.

Today, mobile phone security has been paid more and more attention. EMUI 5. 1 integrates various measures, including payment protection center, providing relatively isolated payment software space, providing genuine payment software download, and taking certain security measures in authority and network to make the payment environment more secure.

EMUI 5. 1 There are also some practical small functions, such as the quick operation of fingerprint identification, which supports the fingerprint to enter the scan code payment with one click when the screen is off, eliminating the steps of opening the application and clicking on the payment, which is faster and more efficient. Moreover, in different scenarios, fingerprint recognition also supports functions such as taking photos, turning pages, turning off alarm clocks, managing notification bars, and answering phones. , making the operation more comfortable.

Thanks to the blessing of EMUI 5. 1, Glory V9 play has comprehensive system functions and satisfactory smooth experience, which is really rare in the compromised thousand yuan products and has become a plus item for Glory V9 play.

Photo experience

For smart phones, it may be tilted in performance and appearance. As a product that focuses on young users, Glory V9 play definitely needs to take photos. In terms of taking photos, Glory V9 play uses a13 megapixel camera with a unit pixel size of 1. 12um, and is also equipped with PDAF phase focusing. To some extent, the photosensitive area and focusing speed of pixels are guaranteed. And what is the actual photo level? Let's take a look at the proofs.

Let's look at a set of daytime proofs first. It can be seen that the glory V9 play still maintains a good picture brightness in the case of sufficient light during the day, and the picture quality is at a normal level in the thousand yuan machine. As we all know, for people's habit of looking at photos at ordinary times, there is always a feeling of "one white covers all the ugliness", so at this point, glory V9 play is also more popular with users. It is also a good practice to let users have a bright feeling when taking pictures and achieve psychological expectations.

When the picture has more colors, the response ability of Glory V9 play is slightly inferior. The overall color of the photo is a bit messy, and the layering is slightly inappropriate.

In terms of macro, glory V9 play still gave me some surprises. It has a certain outstanding effect on the main body, and the background blur is too natural, which is not bad in the mobile phone of this price segment. In addition, in the performance of picture color, the restoration is more accurate.

In the night scene performance, glory V9 play is not as good as some mid-to high-end flagships in image quality, but the brightness of the theme part of the picture is still good, and the so-called different evaluation criteria have good results. I think for such products, the first is to shoot at night, and the second is to shoot well. Products at this price can be sliced successfully at night, which has already performed well.

Hardware performance:

▲ Single-player combat

▲ small group battle

In the hardware part, Glory V9 play uses eight nuclear processor, focusing on low power consumption, full netcom and 4G+ functions. Therefore, it also brought glory V9 play, covering 2/3/4G network standards of mobile, China Unicom and telecom networks, and supporting dual card dual standby. However, we used the most popular the glory of the king to test, and the frame rate of single-line combat is basically 29-30Fps, while that of small-scale team combat is maintained at 25-26Fps. Generally speaking, there is still a relatively smooth game experience for such products.

As we all know, for Android phones, the fragmentation of the system and the resource scheduling of CPU and memory have always had a huge impact on the normal use of the phone. Therefore, glory V9 play introduces artificial intelligence technology to optimize the rationality of resource scheduling in Android system, so that users can get long-term timely response and smooth experience. Specifically, it is mainly embodied in four corresponding measures: intelligent perceptual learning, intelligent behavior prediction, intelligent resource scheduling, and optimization of core components of Android system.

These four measures work together, deeply combine processors, rationally allocate eight nuclear resources, bind common applications to CPU, and fix some resources to common software, so that users can use them more smoothly. In addition, the artificial intelligence algorithm carried by Glory V9 play enables the mobile phone system to better understand the user's behavior habits, and predict the user's behavior on this basis, so as to schedule the system resources such as CPU, GPU and storage in advance, make the resource allocation more timely and reasonable, and achieve the effect of saving electricity and smoothing.

Summary:

From the product point of view, glory V9 play, as a market segment product, inherits the name of glory V series. Although the hardware parameters have been adjusted, it retains the consistent design style of glory products and inherits the "high face value" gene of the previous work. Through the obvious selling points of products, the strategy of "dimension reduction and impact" on the thousand yuan machine market is implemented. It is undoubtedly good news for fans of some glory products. Why not get a high-value mobile phone at a lower price?

Of course, glory V9 play is not without its shortcomings. For example, the mediocre performance of the processor will inevitably be stretched in large-scale games, but frankly speaking, the products in this price range are definitely "take and give" and it is impossible to cover everything. Glory starts with the functions such as the face value and quality of mobile phones, and launches targeted optimization for the target users of market segmentation. For the audience with clear user portraits, positioning is indeed more accurate.
