Appearance

The shape of Glory Quad Core has Huawei characteristics, and its recognition is high. A 4.5 inch 720P high-definition IPS screen on the front has outstanding display effect. Overall front layout and (hereinafter referred to as D1Q) Very similar, the touch of the screen is also very good.

The back is made of frosted texture (the black version is in the hands of the author, while the white version is painted with pearlescent bright surface), which has a certain anti-skid effect. There is an 8 million pixel backlight camera and dual led flash lights on the back, and two speakers on the bottom.

Although the width of Glory 2 is slightly wider than that of D1Q (the width of Glory quad core is 67.5mm, and that of D1Q is 64.9mm), it is also good in grip, and can be easily operated with one hand. The power on key is set on the right side of the machine body, so it is easier to press whether the left or right hand hold the machine.

The power on button of the D1Q is on the top of the machine body. It is convenient to operate with the left hand, but slightly awkward with the right hand.

There are many similarities between the two in the fuselage layout, of course, there are many differences between the two. First of all, the D1Q uses a full fit screen, so the screen will appear more transparent. In addition, although both use 4.5 inch 720P IPS screens, the hair color is different, and the Glory quad core is warmer.

The left side is D1Q, and the right side is Glory Quad.

In contrast to the front touch keys, the Glory quad core keyboard light is slightly dazzling, while the D1Q keyboard light is relatively dark. It would be better if the two could be neutralized or the ROM could have adjustment options directly.

Compared with the right side, the switch design of the Glory Quad Core is on the right side. I personally like this design, and it can be easily operated with both left and right hands.

Both rear cameras are 8 million backlit.

For the speaker at the bottom of the back, the Glory quad core is a dual speaker design, while the D1Q is a single speaker. In addition, the Glory quad core does not mark Dolby sound effects, which is actually supported.

There is a small slot in the lower right corner of both, which can be used to open the rear cover. It is very convenient to open the cover.

Different from the D1Q, the Glory quad core can disassemble the battery, but the battery capacity is relatively small (the Glory quad core is 2150mAh, and the D1Q is 2600mAh). As for which design is better, different people have different opinions.

System Details

First of all, when the Glory Quad Core came out of the factory, it used Android 4.0.4 plus Huawei's traditional 2D desktop. The author had participated in the internal test of the Emotion UI before, so the Glory Quad Core was changed to Emotion UI Version 1.5 The following system screenshots are all based on this system.

One of the major changes of the Emotion UI compared with the native Android system is that it omits the program list, and all programs can be found on the desktop.

System information, Emotion UI version 1.5 (11.02), based on Android 4.1.2. In addition, what is tested here is Glory quad core 1G RAM version 。

The emotion UI plug-in is very special. In this large plug-in, you can freely combine several small plug-ins, place them at will, and be full of personality.

The drop-down list supports customization.

Topic switching.

Dialer Interface.

Some built-in tools.

It has its own music playing interface and supports Dolby sound effect.

The versatile camera supports multiple filters and has image processing tools.

Aixiang image sharing software supports the synchronization of Tencent Weibo, Sina Weibo and Renren.

performance testing

Glory quad core adopts HiSilicon K3V2 1.4G processor, whose performance is our previous and I have already seen it in the test of.

Running score test

An Rabbit scored nearly 12000 points in the four core glory test, while the D1Q tested by the author previously scored 12602 points. Does that mean that the four core glory test is slightly slower? In fact, this gap that cannot be distinguished before can be regarded as an error. In addition, when looking at the drawing performance carefully, the D1Q is much higher. The reason is that the D1Q picture is not limited to 60 frames, while the Glory quad core is limited to the maximum of 60 frames. Therefore, the graphics test scores are different. In fact, the performance of the two is basically the same.

For Nenamark 2.4, the previous D1Q test achieved a super high score of 65.3fps, while the Glory Quad "only" 59fps. This difference is also due to the problem of limiting 60fps. The performance of the two is at the same level.

GLBenchmark 2.5.1, this software has enough pressure on the performance of GPU. This time, the difference between Glory Quad and D1Q is very small. There are two tests with the difference of 1fps, which can be regarded as errors. Therefore, it can be concluded that, The performance of D1Q and Glory quad core (1G) is completely consistent 。

This time, the author used a new way to test the performance.

FPS Meter This software can display the real-time frame number of the current picture 30 or more frames are basically smooth lines, and 60 frames are completely smooth lines. In addition, this software requires root permission. Since 4.1.2 of the Glory Quad core cannot be root, you can only swipe back to Android 4.0.4 and then root to use the FPS Meter.

The desktop can slide to full frame.

Game test. The games tested here include the own rapids, live 2013 and N O.V.A 3。 Among them, Fact 2013 and N O. V.A 3 requires a GMS package to run. Please pay attention to the frame number change in the upper right corner of the screen.

The whitewater speedboat, with its own game, is completely smooth.

N. O.V.A 3. If the FPS Meter is turned on at the same time, it will get stuck. After it is turned off, the smoothness will improve a lot.

After adding D1Q and glory quad core We can see that The performance and compatibility of the K3V2 processor are satisfactory 。 Since the speed of the D1Q is almost the same as that of the Glory Quad, you can refer to it for more information“ ”And“ ”These two articles.

Camera live shot

The Glory Quad core uses an 8 million pixel back lit camera. Here are some live pictures (click to view a larger picture).

summary

The four core glory is a good complement to Huawei's product line. D1 and P1 follow the fashion boutique route, while the four core glory is cost-effective. As far as the Glory Quad itself is concerned, its balanced performance, removable large capacity batteries, and excellent screen and camera performance all add color to it. Compared with the D1Q, their positioning is quite different. The compact body, full fit screen and gyroscope of the D1Q are its advantages. Many users think that the Glory Quad Core can completely replace the D1Q, which is impossible. Their positioning and route are different. The reason for this is that most of the hardware parameters of the two products are similar and the price difference is large. The Glory Quad core even has a 2G RAM version, so users feel that this positioning is slightly confused. The author believes that to solve this problem, D1Q can upgrade to 2G RAM and 16G ROM while maintaining the original price, and at the same time add the fashionable white version (D1 white has been welcomed by many young users before), which can improve the competitiveness of D1Q and make the product positioning more clear. D1Q is more suitable for users who pursue the ultimate in all aspects, while the Glory Core is suitable for some users who pursue cost performance. Of course, high-end hardware also needs to work well with the system. At present, the Emotion UI is still in the internal testing stage, and there is still great potential for improvement. I believe that it will become a very excellent deep customization ROM in the future.
