111: Red Star 3 Released

"red star 3rd generation not only boasts an extremely technologically aesthetic appearance, but its hardware will naturally not lag behind other manufacturers."

"The front panel of the red star 3rd generation is a 5.2-inch IPS fully laminated screen, covered with second-generation Corning Gorilla Glass, making it more robust and wear-resistant."

Chen Chen didn't go into detail about his company's screen this time, as it was the same old story as on the Kunpeng mobile phone 1; the only upgrade was a slight improvement in color gamut and brightness.

After two iterations, the technology and craftsmanship of this screen had basically been pushed to their limits. Although it was a flagship screen from last year, it was still not outdated on this year's red star 3.

"This time, our red star 3 uses our latest independently developed Lingxiao S3 processor chip, which is also our company's third-generation processor chip."

When introducing a phone, the processor is definitely a key point that cannot be forgotten. After all, ever since Lei Jun held his first press conference, processor performance has become an important indicator for measuring phone performance.

Taiwan Novel Website is super practical, choose whatever you want.

"At last month's kunpeng phone 2 press conference, I already explained the performance parameters of this processor. Today, I'll briefly go over them again."

"Our Lingxiao S3 processor is a 4-core processor, manufactured using TSMC's 28-nanometer process technology, which is the latest HPM process, capable of achieving lower power consumption and less heat generation.

Our Lingxiao Architecture is an asynchronous symmetric multi-processing architecture. It provides dynamic power awareness and control for the peak performance of each core of the processor. Coupled with our Red Star's performance scheduling for this processor, there's no need for a '4+1 power-saving core' to effectively control the phone's power consumption."

"This technology utilizes our special processor architecture to dynamically adjust processor power in real-time. For low-load tasks, our Lingxiao S3 can call only one core, and in high-load scenarios, it can release its full performance to meet your needs for gaming and other applications."

"In short, it's an excellent processor that balances power consumption and performance!"

"Similarly, to avoid the overheating issues seen in some Rival Company products, we have also incorporated new heat dissipation materials into the phone. Compared to Rival Company models, our heat dissipation area has increased by over 90%, and our heat dissipation level has improved by more than 200% over Rival Company!"

Compared to extreme phone performance, more users still pursue phone stability. Chen Chen knew that his Lingxiao S3, compared to the previous generation, only adopted TSMC's HPM process and increased the main core and ISP clock speed.

When the phone processor enters a high-load scenario, the core temperature of the processor can basically reach over 60 degrees Celsius. Even when transmitted to the phone's mid-frame and screen, the temperature is still around 40 degrees Celsius. If this Lingxiao S3 doesn't have a more powerful cooling system, it will definitely affect user experience.

At the same time, prolonged high temperatures in the processor can also cause some irreversible effects on the hardware on the phone's motherboard, the most direct manifestation of which is the xiaomi 11's Wi-Fi burning issue.

If it weren't for these reasons, Chen Chen would definitely not have introduced cooling technology at this time, because according to normal development, the processors Qualcomm would release next would basically be 'Fiery Dragons'.

The 8974AC, which is the snapdragon 801, followed by the 808, 810, 820, and 821, are all well-known 'Fiery Dragons'.

If those manufacturers had all chosen the same cooling method as Red Star, it might have been possible to suppress these 'Fiery Dragons'. But now there was no other way, Chen Chen could only bring out this cooling solution first.

In any case, Red Star has applied for patents for this cooling method and some variants, and the suppliers capable of providing this cooling module were also nurtured by Red Star, so there's no fear in using it.

"The red star 3rd generation camera has also been upgraded to 13 million pixels, equipped with a Sony stacked CMOS, a Tianguang Optical Instruments TG28mm lens, and an aperture of f2.2. With the support of our Red Star algorithm, it can support 2x digital zoom, as well as autofocus, continuous shooting, and 1080p60fps video recording."

Overall, this camera module performs well in terms of hardware. Unlike the kunpeng phone 2's entirely Sony lens module, the red star 3rd generation features Red Star's own lens for the first time. Of course, the sensor still comes from Sony.

Tianguang can currently only produce sensors for budget phones. Red Star already had a foundation in lens groups, and after acquiring Tianguang, they jointly developed this 28mm wide-angle lens. Coupled with Red Star's camera algorithm and processor IPS computing, the photo performance is better than the previous generation.

"Tianguang Optical Instruments? Have you heard of this company?"

"I have some impression, it seems to be a small manufacturer in Shenzhen, but it is rumored that they were acquired by Red Star."

Shen Wei nodded thoughtfully. His own products focused on the offline market, with thinness and selfies as the main selling points. Red Star's acquisition of a sensor company reminded him that he could also support a domestic lens sensor manufacturer, which would make future adaptation and customization easier.

"In terms of battery, the red star 3rd generation, like the Kunpeng mobile phone, uses our Red Star's Yangtze River Battery. Its capacity has reached 4200mAh, and charging has been upgraded from last year's 27W fast charging to 33W."

Chen Chen confidently introduced the red star 3's battery and charging to the audience, shouting with a smile in his eyes, "For charging and battery, we are far ahead!"

The audience at the scene had fully reacted by now, erupting in cheers and enthusiastic applause.

Since Red Star's press conference last month introducing the Yangtze River Battery, many people had been discussing whether the red star 3 would use this battery, as the cost of new technology was a factor. Some also speculated that the red star 3's delayed release was due to the battery.

Now Chen Chen revealed the mystery: the red star 3 indeed uses the Yangtze River Battery, although the capacity was slightly reduced.

In terms of charging, Red Star also did not disappoint the consumers waiting for the red star 3, indeed upgrading it, dispelling all worries and doubts of those waiting to purchase this product.

Judging from the hardware Chen Chen has announced so far, the red star 3rd generation's configuration can be said to be very, very good for a mid-range phone; calling it the best thousand-yuan phone would not be an exaggeration.

"I believe everyone knows that the cost of our Red Star's Yangtze River Battery is very high, and coupled with the extremely complex craftsmanship of our Grating Pattern back cover, this time the price may also exceed everyone's expectations, and there might be a small increase."
