In recent years, the mobile phone industry is the most popular one. When it comes to the relationship between various manufacturers, it can not be expressed by "competition", but by "fighting", which is more appropriate to the current situation of the mobile phone industry. It has become a common way for mobile phone manufacturers to compete for configuration, price and appearance, and it is also the only way to show mobile phones. In this era of mobile phones, new mobile phones want to enter the war. In addition to "three struggles", they must have unique highlights that can attract consumers and attract attention. In the fierce battle of mobile phones, "ZUK", a brand new brand, is also a brand new brand of Lenovo. It has quietly entered the ranks of the battle, and also wants to share in the battle. On August 11, the conference released the "ZUK Z1" mobile phone. The whole conference mobile phone introduction was divided into story segments, and I also participated in the watching of the conference. If I said that the "ZUK Z1" mobile phone is more attractive to me, in addition to the configuration, it is the five in one function of HOME key, which is also rare to see multi-function keys on mobile phones at present, and fingerprint unlocking is also one of them. After watching the whole press conference, I felt that ZUK Z1 still has some characteristics that attract the attention of consumers. Maybe this is a new mobile phone experience. Whether it can occupy a place in the mobile phone industry depends on the overall experience. Briefly introduce the parameters of mobile phones
“ZUK Z1” It is equipped with a 5.5 inch full fit screen, with a resolution of 1920 * 1080. The camera uses an OIS optical shake proof camera with 13 million pixels at the rear, and the front camera is 8 million pixels. The configuration is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, and uses 3GB storage and 64G body storage. It supports dual card dual standby, and supports the current three major operators. It belongs to the All Netcom mobile phone. It supports U-Touch fingerprint identification and has a 4100mAh lithium ion polymer battery built in. It can be seen from the simple configuration that the ZUK Z1 is really attractive. These matching configurations alone cost only 1799 yuan, which still has great advantages in the mobile phone industry. Faced with such a price and configuration, it will really move people. What about the actual experience? Let's find out.
Thanks to Lei Feng.com for providing this opportunity to experience the ZUK Z1 smartphone. More interesting experiences of smart products can be found on Lei Feng.com
ZUK Z1 Unpacking Appearance Details
The outer packaging adopts a simple, small and fresh packaging design. The white packaging box and the pink card sleeve in the middle will feel very girlish packaging. There is only a simple tie knot pattern in the middle, which is also the logo of ZUK. The back of the outer package simply marks the information about the parameters of the mobile phone. From the simple outer package with girlish feelings, you can feel very loving.
At the press conference of "ZUK Z1", the shopkeeper said the most memorable sentence is "for whom is a mobile phone designed to look good". We will directly think of eyes and hands. At present, the biggest impression of the mobile phone industry is that the screen is getting bigger and bigger. Personally, I think the mobile phone should be kept between 5 inches and 5.5 inches, which is an acceptable range. Although "ZUK Z1" is equipped with a 5.5 inch screen, it is just good to hold it with one hand Maybe it's because of my big hand, I feel very suitable.
The accessories are matched with instructions, warranty cards, card pins and chargers, and a game V-coin privilege card worth 240 yuan is presented as a gift. Tens of thousands of games are universal and can be obtained by scanning the QR code. The accessories are quite complete. It would be better if earphones could be added
As a medium and high-end mobile phone, "ZUK Z1" is not as attractive as the popular "Borderless" in terms of publicity. It enters the mobile phone market with a simple appearance. It also responds to the slogan "Let's choose simple". In terms of screen matching, instead of choosing 4.7 inch or 5.0 inch, we directly chose 5.5 inch IPS HD display screen. From the color on the interface, we can see that the color performance is really excellent. The 1920 * 1080 resolution is also a common resolution on high-end mobile phones, but the fineness is still excellent. In terms of other mobile phones promoting 2K resolution, "ZUK Z1" has chosen not to follow the trend. I believe everyone knows that 2K is far more power consuming than IPS high-definition screen. However, under the two resolutions, I don't think there is any difference, but I think power saving is the most important.
In the era of colorful back cover of mobile phones, "ZUK Z1" does not pursue color too much. At present, it provides a choice of white or dark gray. On the contrary, white gives people the feeling of purity. I've seen the Hammer mobile phone, and I know that the earpiece and the distance sensor work together, which is beautiful. "ZUK Z1" also adopts this design, which will make the phone look more comfortable on the white panel. The matched front camera is 8 million pixels with 1.4 μ m pixels, and OmniBSI-2 is used ™ Technology, selfie and beauty are enough to meet the requirements of daily selfie.
When it comes to "ZUK Z1", one of the highlights is the HOME key. The appearance of this key is not strange. It is also the key design seen in several mobile phones on the market. However, the same key hides different functions. The "ZUK Z1" HOME key combines three common virtual keyboards of mobile phones to achieve multi-functional interactive operations. For example, press it to return to the home page, tap it to return to the upper interface, switch left and right to open applications, and double-click it to call up the task manager directly. Officially named "U-Touch", another popular function of mobile phones is "fingerprint unlocking". "ZUK Z1" also integrates fingerprint unlocking into the HOME key, and uses capacitive fingerprint sensors to increase fingerprint recognition rate. From the HOME key of the multi interaction design, we can see that a new design is displayed in front of us, which also facilitates our operation of the mobile phone. The five in one key design is really a great highlight.
"ZUK Z1" is quite careful about details. For example, the frame is designed with aviation aluminum grade metal middle frame. The size of the frame is 8.9mm, which is slightly thicker than that of high-end mobile phones, but it feels very good. According to the official information, the metal frame adopts the nano film injection technology, which can keep the metal frame more solid. The volume increase/decrease button and power button are directly designed in the middle of the frame, especially the power button. This is really convenient for lighting the screen with one hand. No matter the border or the material, you can see how carefully the Zuk team pays attention to each detail.
The other side of the metal frame is designed for the SIM card slot, which supports dual card dual standby dual 4G, and also supports three major operators. It belongs to the all network communication frequency band, and supports 7-mode 18 frequency 4G. It can be automatically recognized and used after insertion, which makes every step simple
There are two antennas and 3.5mm audio interface on the metal frame. Everything is simple and comfortable. The arc design of the frame provides a comfortable feel
At the bottom of the metal frame are microphones, Type-c connectors and six round speakers. When it comes to Type-c connectors, they can be inserted in the front and back, but it is also a personal dissatisfaction. Now basic mobile phones use the Volkswagen Micro USB interface, which is more popular. Even if the mobile phone has no power, it is also convenient to borrow the charger It is troublesome to use Type-c interface. It seems that it is not easy to find similar charging lines. There can be innovations and changes, but such changes in the interface should not be made.
The rear camera adopts Sony's 13 million effective pixel camera, which has the optical anti shake function, so as to prevent the image effect from being affected by the shake when taking pictures. Although the number of pixels is only 13 million, after taking photos, I found that the image effect of the photos is relatively clear, and the saturation is also very satisfactory. The focusing speed is also very fast, and the performance of taking photos at night is also excellent. The photos taken by myself will be provided below. In general, the camera is commendable
The back of the "ZUK Z1" mobile phone is very simple. There is only a simple word "ZUK" at the bottom. The back cover adopts a high-density multi-layer coating process to ensure the toughness of the back cover. In terms of battery, 4100mAh lithium ion polymer battery is used. In the actual test standby, two to three days is possible. In fact, it depends on the frequency of use. Overall, the battery life is relatively strong.
The charger is matched with a USB3.0 charger, and the input power is 5.3V 2.5A, which is quite good in fast charging performance. In this way, the mini USB charging head, with its flat design, can be directly inserted into the patch board without occupying another interface, which is very considerate. The Type-c interface UBS cable, in addition to charging with a charger, can be connected to a computer through the Type-c interface for file transmission, which can achieve 500M data transmission. It is much stronger than our traditional data cable
ZUK Z1 system experience
“ZUK Z1” The operating system is customized based on Android 5.1.1, maintaining a simple and beautiful system, and every picture is redrawn. In fact, I really like this customized system, especially the design of the lock screen, which gives a new feeling. Moreover, the desktop wallpaper does not have too complex patterns, but chooses a solid background. For such a desktop, On the contrary, it is my favorite. Careful discovery provides a lot of details and direct praise in terms of its own applications. You can see the difference in calendar and weather.
The lock screen interface adopts a photo frame like capture, which is very simple and comfortable. In addition, on the lock screen and desktop, the notification bar can be called up by drawing up. I always think that the notification is the most correct position to put down. This is really much more convenient in operation than pulling down from above, especially when it is operated by one hand, Pull up the notice bar is the most suitable call out notice bar
When it comes to details, it belongs to the weather and calendar. The weather is displayed dynamically and changes dynamically according to the state of the weather. It's a very interesting weather application. In general, the calendars we often see basically display the date directly with white shading. In order to increase the interest, the calendar of ZUK Z1 has added a beautiful design background under the calendar. Although it feels nothing, we can pay attention to such small details. It can be seen that every place is perfectly presented.
The security center basically covers the functions we need, such as memory acceleration, space cleaning, traffic monitoring and auto start management, and basically adds the functions we need daily.
In order to be open and unbound, all the built-in programs can be uninstalled. Of course, some of the necessary programs can not be uninstalled, such as phone calls, SMS messages, etc., but others, such as weather, calendar, etc., can be uninstalled by themselves. This is the first time to see such an open way. I believe that many users will like this way. In terms of plug-ins, there are a little less. They are basically the plug-ins that come with the application. You can add some plug-ins in this regard. In terms of document management, it is relatively simple, and it also adopts the classification method to classify them respectively, so that we can find the documents we need easily.
In mobile phone settings, we basically see some common function settings. "ZUK Z1" has the fingerprint unlocking function, and the fingerprint is taken on the U-Touch, which is a bit slow in the process. Click to take a little bit, but this can achieve very high fingerprint recognition. Fingerprint unlocking must be done after setting our common unlocking methods, such as pattern and password settings. Just press the fingerprint to enter the desktop without entering the password. The good thing about this unlocking method is that when our fingerprint identification is not successful, we can unlock by other unlocking methods. I think this is a good way
Some wallpaper options are provided on the built-in wallpaper, and every wallpaper change will be matched with desktop solid wallpaper of the same color. I have to say that this unified lockscreen desktop wallpaper is very beautiful, and I also like this matching method
ZUK Z1 Running Score Photography Performance Experience
Although the score does not represent the overall performance of the mobile phone, it is good to simply understand the basic performance of the mobile phone. Almost all mobile phones will simply check the score. "ZUK Z1" is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, and uses 3GB transport storage and 64G body storage. In terms of configuration, it is not bad. It is the high end of mobile phones, especially the price, which has won the attention of consumers. In running points, I used different tests by Rabbit and Master Lu.
The score of 45645 points reached after Anthuru ran the points, far exceeding that of ONE, Xiaomi 4 and Huawei Mate 7. The overall performance was good. The test of Master Lu scored 98.40 points, exceeding HTC 626 and Meizu Meilan 2. This is just a simple and interesting score test. How about really understanding the performance of mobile phones? You still have to experience before you know. In the actual experience process, I think the smoothness and reaction of the system are very good, at least there is no crash or jam, and the system optimization is still very good
The rear of the ZUK Z1 is equipped with a 13 million pixel Sony camera, which takes pictures without any settings. The clarity and color reproduction are very natural, and the details are very satisfactory. Another thing to say is that the focus is relatively fast, which is also my personal satisfaction. The camera only has simple photography and video recording, and does not see the existence of any functions, such as filters. I hope to add these functions later to make photography more interesting, rather than let a third party replace them
At present, taking pictures at night with mobile phones has always been a pain point, and almost can not meet the requirements of taking pictures at night. After taking pictures at night with Zuk Z1, it is much better than the mobile phones I have experienced before. Especially when taking pictures from a distance, the buildings with lights on in the distance are still clear. When I pull it to 100%, the obvious noise comes out, Because the building is shot from a distance, but this kind of imaging is relatively satisfactory.
"ZUK Z1" is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor and uses 3GB storage. It is relatively smooth in running large games, and 3D images are also excellent. With 64G storage space, there is no need to worry because there are many pictures and videos or the installation of large games occupies storage space. 64G is enough to meet our daily storage requirements
The battery life of mobile phones has always been a concern of many people. In particular, the large screen mobile phones have never given us a good impression in terms of battery life. Almost all of them are charged once a day or twice a day. The battery life is far from meeting our needs. The "ZUK Z1" official said very well in terms of the endurance, but in the actual experience, I carefully found that the endurance of the 5.5 inch screen is really satisfactory. On the polymer lithium battery equipped with 4100mAh, I tried to chat and play large games with QQ for one hour, and read for two hours. After watching a movie for two hours, the power consumption was 48%, and the total consumption was 52%. The performance in terms of endurance was commendable, especially under the 5.5 inch large screen, it can save power. Look carefully at the power consumption. Generally, the screen consumes a lot of power, while the hardware consumes a lot of power in mobile network standby, which shows that the system optimization has been done very well. However, in terms of charging, the test charge lasted for ten minutes, but only 8% of the charge was charged, which belongs to fast charging. The overall endurance performance is very satisfactory. Of course, I hope that the power can be saved more in the future
“ZUK Z1” As a medium and high-end mobile phone, it may not be attractive in appearance, or even feel like the combination of the appearance of a certain brand. However, in the process of using the phone, you will find that there are still many attractions. We usually look directly at the appearance of the phone, then the configuration, and finally the experience, but the configuration is relatively high, I really can't choose the configuration within this price. In terms of system experience, simple and comfortable design will leave a good impression. If you ask me what you like about the Zuk Z1, I will simply tell you that the five in one HOME key, simple desktop design and super endurance are enough to motivate us to buy a handheld device. If you are appearance oriented, maybe the ZUK Z1 can't satisfy your purchase desire, but when it comes to functions and experience, I think this phone is worth choosing.
