107: Chapter 107 Little White Unboxing and Testing Again

He tapped on the back panel, which produced a hollow sound.

"Is it empty? No, it's just that the battery is a bit thin, and there's a resonance chamber in the back."

"As everyone knows, CEO Yu said at the press conference that they only had two months, so this is essentially a modified version of the mate series.

It's understandable that there are some minor issues!"

The camera cut to the details of the back once again.

The camera was changed to a single-lens setup, and there was only that one on the back, still with 3 megapixels.

"These specs sound like a Nokia from three years ago, but does everyone know what other brands are offering at this price point?

Let's first take a look at the pride of domestic Smartphones, the Meizu M8."

He took out another phone.

As the first domestic Smartphone and the only choice at this price point, the Meizu M8's specs were naturally displayed on the screen.

3.2 megapixels, no autofocus, no algorithms.

"Although the algorithms on the honor play 1 have been somewhat cut down compared to the mate series, beating this Meizu... is still very simple."

Many viewers seeing this immediately skipped the progress bar to the performance section.

After all, regarding imaging algorithms, other companies, including Apple, were running bare, and only Transsion and Huawei were working on this aspect.

"Far ahead" is exactly right.

"Regarding core configuration, I'll give you the conclusion directly: no cuts."

He placed the honor play 1 and Mate 1 side by side on the table, simultaneously opening Taobao, Weibo, plants vs. zombies, and fruit ninja, all of which were equally smooth.

If you cover the chin of the phone, it's even hard to tell the difference in details.

"MTK6573 can, of course, also be called 6575. The frequency is 845MHz...

It is confirmed to be the same processor.

However, the storage for the honor play has been changed to start at 4GB. There might be some gap compared to the mate during long-term use, but fortunately, it supports memory cards, so everyone can purchase according to their needs."

He swiped both screens simultaneously; there were also some subtle differences.

"Based on the blogger's extreme testing, there are indeed some adaptation issues with the system.

For example, when browsing pictures on Weibo, the Honor loads 0.3 seconds slower, and when entering the game plants vs. zombies, the Honor is 0.5 seconds slower.

But this is all within the expected range of perception; if you aren't specifically comparing them, you wouldn't notice it at all.

Of course, this could also be a small bug in the system; you can wait for an official response.

Regardless, Big Mouth Yu didn't lie; it's 80% of the mate experience.

There should be applause here."

The top of the video was filled with "haha..."

"Looking at it this way, the 'knife skills' are still decent."

"With the mate sitting there, I suddenly feel that this Huawei press conference was so awkward, selling misery the whole time. Is it really possible they will lose that much money?"

"To the person above! Looking at the supply chain alone, it would definitely lose money. Smartphone hardware is really expensive..."

"Then what about Meizu..."

"Don't use that for 'porcelain bumping'. They've already started clearing inventory. If you want to experience the Windows system, buy a lesson... you're welcome to try."

The review session quickly reached the important upgrade point: "Battery life and charging—this is the biggest upgrade, and also what I personally consider the biggest point of criticism."

He picked up the honor play charger.

"10 watts, while the Mate is 5 watts.

The little brother has beaten the big brother; this is the part I don't understand the most.

I really don't know what their project team was thinking...

Our main task today is the review, so let's not talk about those things for now. Let's first see how the fast-charging technology actually performs.

First is data accuracy. The official data says it takes 58 minutes to fully charge. I personally tested it, and from 3% to 100%, it took a total of 1 hour and 05 minutes."

He showed the charger cable and the official data; there was indeed an error, but the gap was actually very small.

Compared to before, there has been a huge improvement.

"In the first 30 minutes, it charged to 63%. The subsequent 30 minutes were much slower. I asked customer service, and they said this is trickle charging to ensure battery life.

But I feel this strategy is very aggressive, and the battery cycle life might be affected.

However, there is currently no research on this aspect... Everyone can wait for my long-term review after three months. But replacing a battery costs 49 yuan, so I think it shouldn't matter."

At this moment, a pile of copy-paste comments floated across the top of the screen: "Trash technology, definitely ruins the battery."

"Exactly, fast charging is definitely traded for battery life. This technology will definitely be played by Huawei itself in the short term. Regardless of how much the battery costs, this is just increasing costs."

"If it were really good stuff, would the mate series not use it? Would it be the turn of the honor play... The battery life will definitely be cut in half in half a year. Rest assured, Apple won't use this kind of trash technology."

"I can only say that this phone is purely a clown. At the press conference, they were 'porcelain bumping' and selling misery; they're actually just selling nostalgia."

But Xiaobai Unboxing paused for a moment: "Regardless of everyone's opinion of it, the era of charging all night is truly over, and I really like this feeling."

He picked up another primary phone, a flagship from an international brand. Besides the small battery, it also adopted a non-removable design.

This is very anti-human.

"This phone takes over four hours to charge. I've used it for a long time and have been forced to form a habit: I must plug it in before going to sleep and unplug it in the morning.

Once I forget one day, I'm in a state of being disconnected the next day. Since the release of the mate, it has gradually fallen out of favor."

He lifted the honor play again: "This phone can charge 40% or 50% while I wash up and eat in the morning. If that's not enough, I can even change the battery.

If it were you, which one would you choose?"

A multiple-choice question appeared on the screen again: honor play, Huawei mate, iphone 3gs...

"Of course, I still have to mention the shortcomings."

A series of configurations appeared on the top of the video again.

The screen does not use full lamination.

In the screen-off state, there is a clear color difference between the glass and the display layer. Lighting up the screen doesn't affect the viewing experience, but screen-off aesthetics do not exist.

The GPS only supports the United States' GPS and does not support Russia's GLONASS. Positioning in the city is no problem, but in mountainous areas or densely packed high-rise areas, satellite acquisition will be a bit slower...

In the last ten seconds of the video, he placed the honor play and that international flagship side by side.

"As this international friendly competitor opened up the Smartphone market and started the inaugural year, choices have become more and more numerous.

We need to remember the pioneers, but please be careful not to treat the pioneers as myths.

It also has major shortcomings, especially the domestic version. Because of hardware issues, it doesn't even support WiFi... The experience is very average.

And the domestic Honor only needs 1999, and the experience is about the same.

I believe many people's needs are just a phone that can access the internet, chat, take photos, and has sufficient battery life, so the Honor is enough; there's no need to spend money to suffer."

He once again performed his classic segment, throwing the phone into the trash can, but this time the object was changed to Apple.

"Is this a 'dimensional reduction strike', or is it called inclusive technology, or is it malicious 'porcelain bumping'? What do you think?"
