Huawei P50 is 4G, so I don't want to buy it, so I play with Mate40 Pro. HarmonyOS system 2.0 is still a bit difficult.

I am a service worker in Genshin Impact. Now I am a 56-level veteran, planting grass for a long time. I spend half an hour cleaning resin every day, doing daily tasks, and throwing all my activities to the weekend. This game is very Buddhist.

The transformation took place some time ago, when Genshin Impact ushered in version 2.0 and opened a new country-Mi Wife. I don't want to be decadent because of the temptation of the original stone and the beautiful scenery of my wife, so I decided to explore it in depth.

Friends who play Genshin Impact know that the PC side and the mobile side of this game are interoperable, so a service only needs one account. I play official clothes, and I use PC-side games most of the time, but it is not convenient to play games on the computer during office hours, so the task of exploration naturally falls on my Huawei Mate 40 Pro.

There are many newer things in Genshin Impact 2.0, so the memory space occupied reaches 1 1.38GB, while in the version of 1.6, the space occupied is just over 9GB. For a mobile phone with only 8GB of storage, the pressure has increased a lot. The good news is that my Mate 40 Pro has just been upgraded to HarmonyOS System 2.0. It is said that all aspects of the game have been improved after this update.

Now the author has spent two days with his wife, and the exploration degree of the three islands maps that have been opened is above 90%, so these two days are completely heavy games. During the game, except for the frame rate of 60 frames, other settings are the default settings.

People who don't know much about this game may. Why don't I turn all the options to the highest level? From a real gamer's point of view, playing a game with a mobile terminal (not for a certain device, but for all devices) doesn't dare to open all special effects at all. Those so-called full special effects are not the frame rate curve of Genshin Impact, but a set of beautiful data, which is difficult to maintain in real games.

Next, I will share with you the experience of playing games under Wi-Fi with Huawei Mate40 Pro in the past two days.

temperature

Because it is a new screen, it is easy to trigger various interactions with NPC during the game. During the interaction, the frame rate will drop according to the system settings, so we will play alone for two hours to test the temperature.

The game has been cleared for two hours. Unlock the seven-day gods and the transmission anchor points everywhere, and then pick up the treasure boxes scattered in the land of rice wives. Of course, there are all kinds of fighting and decryption.

Because of the intensity of the game and the long time, you can feel obviously stuck after a period of time, and with the new content of "lightning disaster", you have suffered a lot and feel very bad. Besides, I'm not sweaty. After playing for a while, my fingers are slightly wet and my fingertips have obvious burning sensation. As far as my body is concerned, I can't stand the temperature during the game.

The specific monitored temperature value is also very scary. After six times of monitoring, the front temperature was above 45 for five times, and the back temperature was relatively low, but the overall temperature was above 44.

Some friends may have no idea about this value, so let's take the bath water temperature as an example. From a medical point of view, the most suitable water temperature for bathing is between 35 and 40. Some people will raise it to about 42 because of their habits, but if the water temperature is 45, taking a bath is a bit outrageous. The author played for 2 hours, and most of the time it was an unacceptable temperature for bathing. The degree of this affliction can be imagined.

Transmission frames per second

When testing the temperature, I mentioned the feeling of fluency, but that feeling is subjective and may be influenced by the temperature of the fuselage, leading to misjudgment. In addition, normal games can't be so "liver" at ordinary times, so we still follow the principle of evaluation, "let the subjective return to the subjective and the objective return to the objective". After making a reasonable model, we will monitor it with the monitoring software PerfDog.

Because Protogod is a highly open game, different game modes depend on different resources, so we divide the frame rate test into three sections-running the map, fighting in the big world and challenging the Boss.

run chart

The location of the map is the transmission anchor point of the outlying island wharf, and it reaches the end point along the arrow route. Originally, I wanted to enter Tianshouge, but because of the plot, I was wanted, which easily triggered interaction with NPC, so I could only shorten the distance.

To tell the truth, the rendering of this line is not as good as many places in Li Yue. I thought it was easier to handle, but the test results were rather poor. In less than 4 minutes, the average frame rate is only 40.8, which is a full frame of 60. The key to seeing an image is not frame locking, but range fluctuation, which means that the loading time of a single frame is extremely uneven, so this feeling is quite uncomfortable.

World War

After running the map, he was sent to "hoe the ground" near Jiutiao Array House. PerfDog recorded the course of the battle.

The monitoring duration is 4 minutes and 7 seconds, and the average frame rate is 36.9. Even if the frame rate does not drop from a high level during monitoring, the variance is still 10.4, which also shows that its fluctuation is exaggerated.

Challenge Boss

Boss chose the new boss-the magic puppet sword ghost, which is open to the rice wife. Because the role in the account is practiced relatively high, it was hammered out in more than a minute, and PerfDog recorded the data during this time.

Full frame 60, average frame rate 37.5, barely passed. In the end, the notes were shocked by Boss because of improper positioning, and they ate a set of serial controls. During this time, the skills and special effects of Boss were loaded, and the frame rate was not very good. The lowest time is only about 25.

Other feelings

After two days of "live broadcast", we found that Huawei Mate40 Pro was not suitable for playing Genshin Impact for a long time. Playing for half an hour in a row, not only the frame rate shakes badly, the temperature is ridiculously high, but also the screen touch will be slow to respond.

For example, click on the map, open the backpack, and click on NPC to trigger interaction. It takes about 1~2 seconds to react after the operation. The gif diagram above shows this process. I put a stopwatch next to Huawei Mate40 Pro when I was shooting, because I was worried that some readers would say that the gif picture I made was deliberately slowed down.

Because the screen response is slow, it also affects the combat experience. Take the Wolf of the North Wind as an example. Boss's mechanism is that after half blood, he will quickly circle the field and then collide quickly when the player is unprepared. Therefore, in the course of the competition, it is necessary to drag the field of vision in a wide range, and the position of the Boss running lap can be observed at any time.

At this time, it is very inconvenient for Huawei Mate40 Pro to drag the field of vision. Fingers exert great force and slip out for a long distance, but the actual rotation angle is only a little. This is definitely not a matter of setting the screen sensitivity. Playing Boss at the beginning of the game will not happen.

Write it at the end

Originally, I wanted to buy a new machine of Huawei P50 series, but I didn't know that the whole P50 series was a 4G mobile phone until it was released, so I gave up this idea and hoped that HarmonyOS System 2.0 would upgrade the game experience of Huawei Mate40 Pro as soon as possible, because it was said everywhere on the Internet that HarmonyOS System 2.0 had greatly improved the game.

However, judging from the actual game experience, Huawei Mate40 Pro under HarmonyOS system 2.0 can't meet the needs of real Genshin Impact players at all. During the game, not only the temperature is high, the frame rate is unstable, but also the touch is slow. I regret not waiting a little longer to buy Mate40 Pro+. At least it has 12gb of running memory. The digital level is higher than that of Genshin Impact, occupying 1 1.38 GB memory space. It's definitely better than Huawei Mate40 Pro with only 8 GB storage, but this mobile phone is not easy to buy now.

Finally, when will Huawei launch the 5G flagship? Huawei Mate40 Pro has been unable to hold back.
