Amigo2.0 evaluates the lightest and thinnest new machine S5.5

IT 168 evaluation ELIFE S5.5 is the thinnest mobile phone in the world released a few days ago, and it has won a lot of praise in both hardware and appearance. So is the amigo system it is equipped with as screaming as its appearance? I was lucky enough to get the S5.5 machine at the first time, and immediately brushed the latest amigoOS 2.0 version, tried it in detail and shared my feelings with you.

First, lock screen, desktop and multitasking

I saw a very refreshing lock screen at first sight. There is no cover except the time plug-in below, and the wallpaper is displayed clearly and completely. This is really a good place to enjoy Mito. For the lock screen, any design that shows time to a person's face is a crime.

Amigo uses a single-level desktop, and the special place is the seamless switching between the screen lock and the desktop, which is a clever combination. Slide out the desktop from the lock screen and slide down from the desktop to return to the lock screen. It can be seen that this is a combination of certain ideas, and subtraction is done to make the desktop function more pure. After the slide-up is successfully unlocked, the small plug-in of time will flip to the local weather, and the small animation is very emotional.

After unlocking, the wallpaper of the screen lock interface is switched to the desktop, which automatically presents the hazy effect of Gaussian blur and creates a sense of depth of field. This way, the wallpaper will not interfere with the icons on the upper layer, and the icons will be easier to identify. Moreover, there will never be a scene where the girlfriend's face is full of icons.

I also found a small detail on the desktop. Icons are arranged from bottom to top, which is different from other Roms. This arrangement is very practical for large-screen mobile phones, and it is definitely better to press it below when there are few icons. Desktop is the core and facade of Android system. As can be seen from the Amigo desktop, the customization of the whole system is quite careful.

Come back and look at the lock screen. The lock screen on the right is some quick functions, such as camera, flashlight, recording and so on. , can be directly operated without unlocking, which is very practical in an emergency. On the left screen is a reading plug-in that can subscribe to content channels. You can come and see when you are bored to kill time. It seems that amigo locks the screen in both urgent and boring situations.

When it comes to multitasking, amigo's card design is the most distinctive in Android phones. The card screenshots of recent tasks occupy more than half of the screen, which is clear at a glance, sliding left and right to switch, sliding up to clear, and one-handed operation is very smooth. My personal favorite point is that the home button is pressed lightly, and the recently run program comes out without pressing it. More subtly, when I switched to multitasking, I found that the card of the last application was displayed in the middle. I don't need to swipe to find it, just click on it, which is very convenient when switching between applications. After using amigo's multitasking for a few days, I'm a little unaccustomed to using other mobile phones.

These functions, including card multitasking, seamless switching between screen locking and desktop, Gaussian blur effect and so on, were already available in amigo 1.0 as early as last July. However, the desktop was obviously stuck. I tried amigo2.0 this time and found that the fluency was greatly improved. The core of the desktop is fast, and the latest version of amigo can be said to be up to standard.

Of course, amigo desktop also needs some improvements, such as not supporting third-party plug-ins, which is a pity.

Second, the communication module

Communication function is always the core of mobile phone. Amigo's special calling function is very grounded. Needless to say, the card animation of naughty jumping during the call, the convenient gesture operation of sliding up and down to hang up and down to answer, speaking of the elements of the calling card, is very clever:

▲amigo's calling card and answering gestures

Why do you think it's smart? Because amigo can flip the card left and right, it can skillfully integrate practical functions such as weather information, communication history, ignoring incoming calls, SMS reply and so on. At the same time, people will not feel that the information content of this interface is too dense:

▲amigo calling card skillfully integrates call records, call weather and other information.

Not only that, I can directly click on the caller's avatar on the incoming call card, and even further check the short message records I sent with the other party before. Combined with the known weather information of the other party, I can predict what I want to say next by combining these effective information before answering the phone, thus making communication more active and thinking more clear:

▲ Click amigo calling card avatar to view SMS history.

Amigo's calling function is of course more than just a phone card. For example, its virtual calling function is also quite practical. Don't say that sometimes it comes in handy for personal freedom:

▲amigo's virtual incoming call function can virtual incoming calls with any name and phone number.

The mobile phone also has a voice dialing function, which can be started by long pressing the dialing key on the dialing keyboard, and you can directly dial the phone by saying the name of the contact you want to dial, which is very practical when driving or riding a bike:

▲amigo can dial the name of the contact directly.

If the telephone function is amigo's dragon slaying way, then the short message function can be described as its eternal sword, because amigo's phone gives me the feeling of grounding gas, while its short message gives me the feeling of being more intimate.

Why do you say that? Usually, the short messages in mobile phones are mixed, most of them are service-oriented short messages, and only a few are really important private short messages. Amigo is not, by default? Information? The tab is just a private letter from the user, which looks very refreshing. Of course, it's easy to see the service information. Just click again? Service? You can see the panorama of service information on the tab, and the world is quiet from then on:

▲amigo can intelligently and automatically classify and archive private information and service information.

Another intimate function of amigo SMS is its SMS encryption function. In this era when privacy is becoming more and more important, of course, some short messages are invisible. Fortunately, amigo SMS encryption is very convenient:

▲amigo long press any contact in the SMS and click? Encryption? SMS encryption can be realized.

Encrypted SMS will have a lock sign under the contact name, but even so, it is not always the safest. What if you are found by the examiner? What's even cooler is to do a pinch operation with two fingers, so that the encrypted message will not be displayed at all, and you can rest easy from now on:

▲ Double-finger enlarged SMS interface can completely hide encrypted SMS.

In addition to paying special attention to privacy, I am actually an obsessive-compulsive disorder patient. When I received a short message, I felt uncomfortable when I saw the unread bubbles, and I couldn't wait to get rid of them in one breath. Fortunately, amigo has taken this into consideration. Just click the bubble on the right side of unread email to mark it as read:

▲amigo's function of clicking on the bubble to mark the read is? Obsessive compulsive disorder designed for patients

Not only that, but when a large number of unread text messages come in, you can even use the menu button to bring them up? Set all as read? Command to sweep away the SMS bubble. With this function, I don't need to click on most short messages to read.

▲ There are a lot of unread text messages that need to be marked, so don't worry. Everyone can read it.

Speaking of this person, once he is old, he sometimes finds some small words difficult to read. Amigo also took this into account in his short message. When reading short messages, the old man can shrink and enlarge the font with a pinch and an open finger, which is very convenient:

▲amigo SMS supports two fingers to pinch the font, so that the burden of the eyes can say goodbye.

During the trial of these days, I found that the practical functions of amigo SMS are far more than these. For example, if you suddenly want to meet a friend, or get lost when you go out, can you go there? Geographical location? The function of sending the current location directly to friends:

▲amigo SMS supports geographic location sending, which can accurately tell friends the current location.

For example, the timed SMS function can write the SMS content in advance, set the specified time, and then the SMS can be automatically sent to the designated contact:

▲ The scheduled sending function of ▲amigo SMS is of great benefit to SMS scheduling.

As luck would have it, just as I was experimenting with mobile phones, a friend sent me a short message asking me to change my phone number. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the new number mentioned in the original long press message can also be added to my contacts with one click, and I accidentally discovered a intimate detail of amigo SMS:

▲amigo SMS supports the function of adding new numbers to contacts with one click.

Thirdly, there are some other noteworthy designs in Amigo system.

The weather interface design is great, the animation is gorgeous, and the key is realistic sound effect, which simulates all kinds of wind, rain, cicadas and birds, and makes you feel immersive. In addition, when adding cities, you found one? Cities that you might be interested in? . . ? Dongguan? . . Friend, do you know too much?

The clock is also a function that I think is very good. It incorporates many ideas: 1, which takes the earth as the background, giving people the feeling that the light and shadow of the horizon are gone. The background color changes with time, with delicate effect and simple color transition. Switch animation between 2.2. Tab is very smart and seamlessly connected. 3. Set the alarm clock quickly. You can dial the time directly to enter the interface of setting the alarm clock, and even the new one is omitted.

The UI design of some gadgets is also very good, especially the audio track map of the tape recorder is so cute.

▲ recorder interface

The pointer of a compass is like a boat, floating on the vast sea, pointing out the direction for people.

The function of the camera surprised me the most, especially the professional mode of the camera. Although I have seen the renderings before, it was quite shocking when I actually got it. The whole setup interface simulates the feeling of a SLR camera, and the mode switching is a roller design, which makes me feel like a professional camera with a mobile phone.

However, I also found a small flaw. When the camera is in landscape, the number displayed by countdown shooting is not landscape.

▲ shooting interface

There is also a fun shooting function in amigo system, which seems to separate professional photos from fun photos. There are many special shooting modes in the fun camera, such as skin care, beauty, continuous shooting, pedestrian gap, watermark and so on. I think the most bunker is the sliding mode. As long as you take a ppt with your mobile phone in the meeting, it will automatically rotate to correct the scale and generate a pdf file. Business users should like this function very much.

The default font of Amigo system is changed from Microsoft elegant black font 1.0 to Founder Lanting fine black font 2.0, which is slimmer and looks comfortable, and there are more fonts to choose from in the system settings.

▲ SMS interface

Desktop icons have been redesigned and adopted a flat style, which makes the overall vision thinner and lighter, and the icons and words feel more harmonious together.

abstract

Amigo2.0 tends to be light and flat in style, just like its light and thin hardware design, which is more in line with the current design trend; The system adds a lot of humanized design, which is more in line with the user's usage habits. The overall feeling is thin, intimate and emotional, which complements the thinnest new machine S5.5 Of course, there are many small details, including the unity of various applications of the system, which needs to be further strengthened by the Amigo team. In short, during the trial of S5.5, amigo2.0 gave me a lot of surprises, which made me have more expectations for its future ~ I wonder when amigo can launch a third-party brush machine?
