Asus FonePad is a 7-inch tablet phone that can support inserting cards to make calls. It is a cross-border product. And how does it feel to use such a tablet phone equipped with Intel Atom Z2420 1.6GHz upgraded processor? Let's experience it together.
Note: This is an upgraded version of Asus FonePad on the small editor's hand, specifically the processor frequency has been upgraded.
Let's take a look at the main parameters of this tablet:
System: Android 4.1
CPU: Intel Atom Z2460 (1.6GHz) single core, GPU：PowerVR SGX 540
RAM：1GB，ROM：16GB。 Support TF card expansion, up to 32GB.
Screen: 7 inches, resolution: 1280 * 800.
Front 1.2 megapixel camera, rear 3 megapixel camera. The rear part supports auto focus and can capture 720P video.
Battery: 4270 mA.

screen
As for the visual angle of the screen, this tablet is really not very good, and the screen brightness is also very low, but it does not affect daily use:
(Note: This is a screen shot in dark environment with light off.)
The front view angle is of course the best.
After a little sideways, the display effect is fairly good, there won't be too much problems.
The visual effect on the other side shows that the screen is relatively gray.
In case of dead focus line, the graying will be more obvious.
The ASUS tablet also has an outdoor mode, which can enhance the brightness of the screen after being turned on. The effect is quite obvious. When you can't see clearly outdoors, you can turn on the outdoor mode to improve the viewing effect, but it will also consume more power.
The screen color temperature can be adjusted as you like.
Running points
You are most familiar with the score run of Anthare. Finally, 8723 points were measured. Of course, this value is only approximate, and the scores around this value are normal.
The number of frames for the 3D special run of Anthare is very low, the average frame number is 7.9, and the maximum frame number is only 11.
NenaMark2 is a very old GPU test software with only 39 frames.
Use the native browser to test the score of the sunspider web page. The final test result is 532ms (the lower the value, the better). This score is quite good.
Because the tablet is not ROOT at present, it cannot be tested in many places. However, from the above data, we probably know that the performance of this tablet is relatively ordinary.
system
Screen unlocking screen.
This tablet of ASUS is based on Android 4.1, with a little change of its own, adding humanized settings. This is the default desktop screenshot of ASUS FonePad upgrade.
Multi task menu, native style.
In the bottom key bar, in addition to the three iconic King Kong, there is also a function key on the right. This function key is to call out the suspended window plug-in specially added to ASUS tablet.
Suspended plug-in demonstration.
Asus tablet still has a secondary menu, which is consistent with the original system.
The setting interface is basically native, but a little improvement has also been made.
In wireless and network, cell alarm is also added.
ASUS has added personalized settings, including outdoor mode (the one mentioned above on the screen), whether screenshots can be edited and other settings.
As for the dialing interface, contact interface, call interface, and SMS interface, it is good to put them together directly.
Drop down menu.
The folder is also featured, and there are some shortcuts that can jump to the folder.
The machine comes with 16GB of memory, and the available memory is about 11GB.
As for RAM, there is about 470MB of free memory left at boot time.
System featured application
Asus has also added some interesting built-in applications while maintaining its native features. Now let's get to know about them.
One feature: large study.
The system's own "big study" is a good e-book reader, which can search for key words on the page.
You can also mark the fields you want on the e-book. The color and brush size can be customized.
For example.
It looks like an e-book on the hand. In fact, a 7-inch tablet is quite good for e-books. It is not heavy and is relatively suitable in size.
Demonstration mark field.
If your e-book has a typesetting sequence, you can also directly select chapters to read.
What's more intimate is that you can directly read the whole page by clicking the microphone. The voice we use is that we are familiar with iFLYTEK.
However, it is very uncomfortable that at present, the whole page of reading aloud only supports English, and Chinese cannot be read aloud.
Night mode.
The system has a built-in dictionary, but this is not the key point. The real key is the real-time dictionary.
Feature 2: real-time dictionary.
After opening, there will be a small plug-in like a dictionary next to it (you can move to the left and right edges as you like). Click once, the dictionary turns blue to enable real-time translation. Click the word you want to translate to enable real-time translation.
You can even choose the translation language.
You can also translate the whole paragraph, but you need to connect to the Internet to translate the whole paragraph.
As long as the interface of the dictionary plug-in is available, you can use translation. For example, when you encounter words or statements you don't know in the web page, it can help a lot.
Feature 3: Sketchpad
There are different brushes, brush thickness and color to choose from, which is good for coaxing children.
Feature 4: Magic Album.
The Magic Album is used to set up your own photos or screenshots according to your preference, and has a good degree of freedom to edit.
Feature 5: App backup
Just look at the picture. No more explanations.
Here are just some built-in applications that I don't think are superfluous or even useful. As for more functions, I don't want to introduce them. I can experience them myself when I have the opportunity.
game
In terms of the game, three large games and two small games are also used for testing. Similarly, because ROOT cannot test the number of frames, the fluency can only be achieved through dictation.
Iron Man 3, the picture effect is the lowest. The sun doesn't even flicker, and the texture is very poor.
In terms of fluency, you can play. It's just that you get stuck at the beginning. It will be better if you play for a while, but it's not very smooth.
The picture of "Top Speed Car 17" is also not the highest effect.
The light effect has no reflection on the car body, but fortunately it is smooth and can play smoothly.
The picture of Real Racing 3 is just low effect.
Fairly smooth, slightly stuck, but not serious, can play normally.
"Temple Escape 2" enables high effect, but when I first entered, I encountered a bug, and a large black shadow with wrong mapping moved along the screen. It will be solved after restarting.
Fairly smooth, sometimes a bit inexplicably stuck, but the situation is relatively rare.
"Crazy Taxi" is a game... but it's very serious.
Visually, it is no more than 15 frames.
temperature
After playing Real Racing 3 for half an hour, the temperature on the left side of the lower part of the screen is the highest, reaching 39.6 degrees Celsius.
The back, however, is very calm. The hottest direction is also the right side of the center, 35.6 degrees Celsius.
one
Video test
My sister is not so cute 720P, MKV format, cannot be played with the system's own player. After the MX player is replaced, it can be played, but the frame number is low and not smooth.
My sister is so cute 720P, MP4 format, can be played normally with the system player, and the picture is smooth.
"Iron Man 3" 720P, RMVB format, system player can not play, using MX player is also very stuck.
Hard decoding cannot play video.
Battlefield 3, 1080P, MP4 format, can be played with the system player, but the picture is very stuck.
"Assassin's Creed" 1080P, MP4 format, this can be played normally. The 1080P MP4 video above is not supported because the video bit rate is too large.
shot
Rear 3 megapixel shooting sample:
Alas... The sample of the tablet, just feel it, don't take it seriously.
Sample shot with front 1.2 megapixel camera (female demo):
Just feel the same.
Endurance
When I got it, there was 50% of the power left. After connecting to the company's WIFI, I didn't pay much attention to it. From time to time, I turned on the screen to check the power. After a day and 17 hours of standby with WIFI, 18% of the power was lost. After all, there was a 4270 mA battery. The standby condition was ideal.
After playing "Top Speed Car 17" for one and a half hours, 31% of the power was used up, and the endurance was good.
summary
The appearance design of this tablet is relatively simple. You can insert a SIM card and a TF card by removing the gray parts on the upper back. The frame is also very wide. Of course, on the other hand, the wide frame is also convenient for holding. I like it. The screen is not very good, the display effect is a little poor. In terms of the system, it is based on the original, but has added ASUS's own humanized settings. In addition, there are many useful built-in applications, which are very considerate. The performance is relatively weak, and the processor frequency is relatively low, but there is no major problem in daily use. The game experience is not weak. Most large games can be played smoothly, and some may be stuck due to poor compatibility. As for the video decoding ability... this aspect is relatively weak. As you can see from the video test above, the common MKV format is not smooth. As for the photo taking of this tablet phone, you should feel that it is only for decoration when you look at the sample above. In terms of battery life and standby, the battery life is very good because there are 4270 large batteries. Two days of normal use is not a problem. The ones with high use intensity can basically last for one day. In general, the cost performance ratio is not very high, but it is acceptable (the upgraded ASUS FonePad sells for about 2200 yuan). As for whether you use this product as a mobile phone to make phone calls... It's up to you. But it's a good choice to plug this product into a 3G card for Internet access or use this tablet as a hotspot. After all, the battery is large enough, the battery life is long, and the available time for hotspot is long enough.
