In fact, the Windows Phone system is quite suitable for middle and low-end machines. Anyway, their audiences pay more attention to the basic functions of mobile phones. The low requirements for hardware are also conducive to further reducing the price of mobile phones. The Lumia 735 is the latest work of the camera factory on this basis.
In terms of naming, it is easy to see that Lumia 735 and Lumia 730 are two derivatives of the same machine. Their debut means that Lumia 720 has officially completed its mission and retired. The difference between 735 and 730 is that the 735 supports LTE while the 730 is a dual card model. In addition, there is no difference in other specifications.
Main specifications:
4.7 inch 720p ClearBlack AMOLED display;
Windows Phone 8.1 operating system, Lumia Denim;
Snapdragon 400 (quad core 1.2GHz Cortex-A7 processor, Adreno 305 GPU),1GB RAM;
6.7 megapixel 1/3.4 inch CMOS, supporting 1080p video recording, 5 megapixel 24 mm wide-angle lens in front;
8GB built-in storage, supporting maximum 128GB expansion;
LTE Cat. 4 (only supported by 735) WI-FI a/b/g/n、GPS、 Bluetooth 4.0 NFC;
Active noise reduction function;
2200mAh removable battery, wireless charging.
Appearance design:
Nokia seems to have fired all the designers since it designed the N9, and then bought a copier and found several college students to design their mobile phones with PS. As for the shell material, Nokia is the only one that can always use the plastic back without being scolded (Samsung: I'm so disappointed...).
To get to the point, the 735's body is very solid. The conservative body design is not outstanding, but it can also meet the aesthetic needs of most users. As a mid-range mobile phone, the 735 does not have any sense of cheapness. We would like to praise Nokia for this. The 130g weight also makes users feel that the 735 is not a burden in their pockets.
The side of the fuselage is designed in an arc shape, which makes the 735 feel very good. The bottom and top are designed in plane.
The entire plastic shell of the 735 can be replaced. After the plastic shell is removed, the SIM card, SD card and battery can be replaced. You can even buy different color shells to match clothes.
On the 735, Windows Phone 8.1 also uses the virtual button on the screen, but this virtual button is the same as that on Android 4.0, occupying a black line on the screen. I hope there will be an immersion mode in the future.
On the top of the front is a 5 megapixel front camera, and the Nokia logo is about to disappear. Nuo Fen doesn't cry.
There are power button and volume button on the right side of the fuselage, but nothing on the left side.
The flat top and bottom are the headphone connector and USB connector.
The design style of the back is very simple. The standard three piece set: camera LED、 The horn and camera protrude slightly.
In terms of appearance design and material workmanship, the 735 has maintained Nokia's consistent high level. It is true that the 735 is not a high-end mobile phone, but thanks to its excellent hand feel and workmanship, the 735 is definitely not cheap. And as one of the thinnest machines in the Lumia product line, the 735's proper body weight gives consideration to both hand feel and portability, The only problem is that the screen proportion of the fuselage is a little low.
Screen performance:
The resolution of the 735's screen is only 720p, and the diamond shaped sub pixels mean that the 735's screen is not as delicate as the ordinary LCD screen under the same ppi. However, Nokia generously equipped its 735 with its own screen pleasing technology, and this screen also has a glove mode, which is also a conscience.
In terms of screen color, the 735 also has a built-in color temperature and saturation adjustment function, which is also very generous for mid-range computers.
Thanks to the characteristics of the AMOLED screen, Nokia has also added Nokia Glance function to the 735, which can light up some screen pixels to display time and notifications after the screen goes out. Users can also choose to display time or always display or not display after the screen stops. The color used to display time can also be freely selected.
In terms of screen brightness, Lumia 735's maximum screen brightness is 363 nits, which is normal for AMOLED screens. In terms of visual angle and contrast, the 735 performs well.
In the sunshine, thanks to Nokia's happy screen technology and the high contrast of AMOLED, the 735 is the best in the same class of mobile phones, and can even compete with more expensive flagship mobile phones, which is commendable.
Battery life:
With a 2200 mAh battery, the 735 can sustain 17 hours and 30 minutes of 3G calls, 8 hours and 20 minutes of web browsing, or 10 hours and 20 minutes of video playback, with a comprehensive endurance of 59 hours. That is to say, under moderate intensity of use, the power of the 735 can guarantee users' two-day endurance.
System:
The 735 system is the latest Windows Phone 8.1, and the 735 is one of the first Lumia phones equipped with the Lumia Denim update, which mainly improves the use experience of Lumia camera applications and adds some new functions.
8.1 The system can set wallpaper. Transparent blocks greatly improve the beauty of the interface, but unfortunately not all blocks support transparent effects.
After the update, the home page can create folders, which is impressive.
8.1 There is also a design similar to Android's notification center. You can pull down the status bar to open it. It's OK to view notifications or use the switch to open Bluetooth and other things. The official name of the notification center on WP is Action Center. The switches in the notification center can be edited by themselves. However, this experience needs to be improved. For example, pressing the wi fi button can access WI-FI settings, while double clicking the Bluetooth button cannot.
Performance:
The 735 is built with an old Snapdragon 400 SoC. The quad core 1.2GHz Cortex-A7 and Adreno 305 GPU are common for mid-range mobile phones. However, with many competitors using Snapdragon 410 processors, the 400 seems to be powerless.
In general, the performance of the 735 is very average among the products of the same level, and the score is not very good. However, the system runs very smoothly regardless of the score of the Windows Phone. For most users who buy phones of this level, the 735 is not critical.
photograph:
The 6.7 million pixel sensor, plus the ZEISS certified lens, sounds good, but you can't use all the pixels on this sensor when taking photos. The photo at 16:9 is only 5.3 million pixels, while the photo resolution at 4:3 mode is only 6.1 million pixels.
We are familiar with the interface of Lumia camera APP, which provides white balance, focusing, ISO, Options such as shutter speed.
However, in terms of the samples, the 735's performance is average, with more noise, but fortunately, the details of the picture are well preserved, the tolerance is average, and the white balance is slightly off track. In our shooting, the samples with more accurate white balance account for only about one-third of the total, However, the photo of 735 is not all groove points. When the white balance is accurate, the color performance of 735 sample is very good, the saturation is moderate, and the light and shade are appropriate.
The panoramic photos taken by 735 are not very wide, but the color performance is good.
In terms of other photographing functions, the 735 can download APP to expand its photographing function, and the panoramic photo function is also not absent. In short, it is sufficient.
In terms of video recording, the performance of 735 recording is average, white balance deviates, and dynamic range is insufficient. Fortunately, the performance of video details is good. In addition, when recording 735 video, you can choose to filter out low-frequency noise. When you choose Strong, you can even record good background sound in concert or club environment.
Sound quality performance:
The audio playback performance of the 735 is good, and various indicators are commendable. Although the advantages of the frequency response curve deteriorate after the headset is inserted, the overall performance of the 735 is excellent among mobile phones of the same level.
Summary:
Compared with the previous generation 720735 (730), the upgrade in all aspects is satisfactory, such as LTE network, 5 megapixel front camera The AMOLED screen and 1080p video are popular among the people, and the 735 also continues the excellent workmanship of the Lumia family. It feels very good. Although the integrated body design has been abandoned, for most people, the case and battery that users can replace by themselves are more practical.
In addition, the AMOLED screen of the 735 also impressed us deeply, with vivid and bright colors, outstanding contrast and visual angle, and resolution of the mainstream mid-range mobile phone. The 4.7 inch screen also found an excellent balance between the large screen and single hand operation.
