The S series is a mobile phone series that Jinli pursues the ultimate design. After the record of thinnest mobile phone was set by Jinli S5.1 in 2014, the S series also began to find breakthrough points in other aspects. The Jinli S6 launched this year added a micro arc back cover to the 6.9 mm ultra-thin body, and used USB 2.0 Type-C interface and 3G large memory. Now let's see its performance.

Appearance and workmanship
Jinli gave a new definition to the metal body in the press conference. The original so-called "metal mobile phone" was dominated by metal decorative parts, injection molding in the metal film, metal CNC plus plastic and other semi metal and semi plastic products. S6 is a whole piece of aluminum alloy through CNC processing, nano injection molding, anodization and more than 100 processes, which is a truly integrated metal mobile phone without stamping and forging, The purpose of this is to get a perfect, solid and pure metal shell. The final result is that the metal proportion of the whole machine reaches 89%.
In addition to the common platinum and glittering gold colors, the official also provided the very popular rose gold this year, and this time we got the platinum version. The front of the fuselage is a piece of protective glass, which adopts the ID frameless design that is very popular now. It is very simple, and the screen accounts for 77.8%.
The camera, earpiece and light/distance sensor on the forehead are symmetrically arranged, and a status indicator is hidden right above the earpiece.
There is no backlight for the three major diamond keys of Android on the chin, but there is a hot silver treatment, which will have different reflective effects at different angles.
The back of the fuselage processed by CNC is a concentrated reflection of the "Shining" feature of Jinli S6. Plastic covers are reserved for the antenna at the top and bottom, and the rest are made of a whole piece of aluminum alloy, which is highly integrated. The surface of the fuselage has been sandblasted and anodized, and the feel is very delicate.
The joints between the plastic and metal body of the rear cover are well controlled, and the color difference is not obvious. The top camera has a slight bulge, and the middle is a noise reduction microphone placed in the middle.
At the transition between the upper and lower edges, two diamond cut 45 degree CNC chamfers are added to improve the grip feel. The width of the bright edge reaches 1.5mm, and the wide bright surface will have bright reflection of the bling bling in the light, which adds a lot of points to the appearance of the machine, which is very consistent with the official slogan of shiny metal.
The volume key and power key on the right are also made of metal, with concentric circles on them. The keys are exquisite, the empty position is small, the feedback is clear, and the feel is good.
In order to reduce the demand for machining accuracy, manufacturers generally make the slot cover and the card holder into two parts, so that the slot can be safely closed even if there is tolerance. However, the all-metal integrated design is rarely used in the pallet of Jinli S6, which makes processing and assembly more difficult than other models.
You can choose to insert a Nano SIM card and a Micro SIM card, or a Micro SIM card+TF card into the card slot.
There is only one headphone connector on the top of the fuselage, and the fuselage gradually changes from 6.9 mm of the central axis to 4 mm of the edge, forming a very low-key micro arc.
The USB 2.0 Type-C interface, which does not need to distinguish the front from the back, is placed in the middle of the bottom, which is convenient to use at ordinary times. Both sides are symmetrically placed microphone openings and speakers. The injection molding of the antenna partition strip is good, and it fits smoothly with the metal body.
Arc corners, micro arc back cover and shiny CNC chamfer make the machine hold well.
screen
The Jinli S6 uses a 5.5 inch 720P Samsung AMOLED screen (PPI 294). Many slim models will choose AMOLED screens, but they tend to be oversaturated in color.
The machine's AMOLED screen covers 100% sRGB and 97% Adobe RGB color gamut. The default color temperature is around 8800K, which is commonly known as the cold screen. The maximum white dot brightness of the screen can reach 312 nits, and the brightness distribution of the screen is relatively uniform, with an average △ E of 4.52.
In general, Jinli S6 uses an excellent AMOLED screen with high color saturation, and the default color temperature is cold, which is flattering.
system
Jinli S6 runs amigoOS 3.1 based on Android 5.1. Its UI is simple and lively, with many bright color blocks, and its design style is more suitable for young people's aesthetics. The application function of the system is very restrained, the tendency of lightweight is obvious, and the smoothness and purity of the system are very high.
Sliding left and right on the lock screen interface can switch between different wallpapers. Click on the text introduction to view the relevant introduction. The lock screen interface is highly ornamental and interesting.
The system has introduced a pull-up bar, in which all shortcut buttons are placed, which is much more friendly for single handed use. In the multitask interface, you can clear the background with one key, and press and hold to lock tasks and other common functions.
The system steward integrates the necessary practical functions of domestic ROM, such as security center, auto start, traffic, power saving management, etc.
In order to deal with the serious problem of background auto start of domestic applications, almost all domestic systems are equipped with their own auto start control functions, and the power saving mode has begun to be introduced by many domestic systems.
The function of the green background is similar to the famous green daemon. It can clean the background services and processes when the screen is off for 2 minutes or the memory is less than 20%, so as to ensure the smoothness and power saving of the mobile phone. What is more special is that amigoOS 3.1 can even green the system application, with a high degree of freedom.
More specifically, there is even the application freezing function, which is an advanced function that can only be achieved by third-party applications such as titanium backup after root. Systems and third-party applications that do not need to be used temporarily will "disappear" in the system after freezing, and will not be displayed on the desktop or automatically started in the background.
In addition to the core applications at the bottom of the system, amigoOS 3.1 has spent a lot of effort on daily tool applications. The bottom layer of the system integrates the black screen capture function. When the letter C is drawn in the black screen state, the camera will automatically turn on and automatically capture 5 photos, which will be very practical in the situation where capturing is required.
The system has its own private space function, which can encrypt the call records, contacts, SMS messages, pictures and files that are not convenient for people to see. In the corresponding application, long press and select the content to be encrypted to see the encryption options. Because it is the encryption function of the system, its security and stability are much higher than those of third-party applications.
In addition, the special and humanized feature is that the encrypted files will be subject to "two-level protection". First, they will be automatically hidden and can only be seen after two fingers are unfolded into the private space in the application. Ordinary people will not see the encrypted file even if they rummage through the file. Even if someone with ulterior motives enters the private space, the encrypted file can only be opened through the user's preset password.
The child model is an independent space for children. When you give your mobile phone to children to play with, if you don't want to open applications or delete files, you can turn on Children Mode. In the function, the default camera and image library are available. Users can add games, teaching and other applications by themselves. It can even set time limits for children to use. The design is very considerate.
Its own ami notepad is the most fully functional notes the author has ever encountered. Notepad adopts light kraft paper style background by default, supports tag classification function, can insert pictures in the text, and can generate microblogs. The application itself has a high face value.
photograph
Jinli S6 uses a front 5 million+rear 13 million pixel camera. The rear camera has a large aperture of f2.0 and supports phase focusing. Officially, it can focus in 0.1 second at the fastest.
The government does not provide the sensor model of the rear camera, but the 13 million pixel sensor that supports phase focusing on the market is only Samsung's S5K3M2 and Sony's IMX258 for the time being. They are all 1/3.06 inch, and the unit pixel size is 1.12 μ m. They are also used in Xiaomi 4c, One Plus X and other models. Judging from the performance of previous models, these two sensors have good foundation.
The photographing interface is also a simple style familiar to amigo system. The buttons for photographing and recording are separated. All the advanced functions of the official "IMAGE+4.0" platform of Jinli are concentrated in the buttons on the upper left corner, including the familiar beauty HDR、 Lossless zoom, super pixel, text correction, pedestrian removal and other advanced functions.
Phase focusing is added to the machine, and the focusing speed is good in the daytime, and the focusing success rate of weak light scenes is in line. The imaging speed is fast. The HDR and night scene camera modes that require longer algorithm synthesis adopt the background synthesis scheme, without having to hold the mobile phone all the time. The use experience is good.
The photo style of the machine is more realistic and restored, the color is more elegant, the red is relatively bright, and the green saturation is not high, but it is better than the contrast of the film, which is more pleasing to the eye. Automatic white balance and metering are accurate in most cases.
The proof has not undergone too much sharpening, and the discrimination is at the normal level of 13 million pixels made in China. The edge of the picture has a certain degree of edge degradation.
In terms of night scene, the safety shutter was set at 1/10 second, with a high film completion rate. Basically, you can take usable samples as long as you can focus on them. The highest ISO is set at 2808, and the brightness of the picture is excellent. Under ultra weak light, you can take a brighter sample than the naked eye can see, and also ensure acceptable details. Although the lens controls glare in a regular way, its performance at night is more brilliant than that at daytime.
Original left, HDR right
Like other sensors at the same level, its tolerance is satisfactory. HDR mode has a fast processing speed, relatively harmonious effect and no ghost phenomenon.
Automatic mode on the left, night view mode on the right
The processing time of night scene mode is relatively short, and the effect is quite obvious. Smearing algorithm can wipe out a large part of noise, which can effectively improve the brightness of the picture, and even the level of the night vision camera.
Comparison of sample size between automatic mode and ultra clear mode
In the ultra clear mode, several 13 million pixel samples are taken in succession for algorithm synthesis, which takes about 7-8 seconds to generate, and finally 6500 pixel (9312 * 6976) ultra high definition samples are generated.
The left is the automatic mode, and the right is the ultra clear mode
The sample of this mode has not undergone obvious sharpening, so the sharpness seems not high, but after being magnified, the details are rich and natural, the effect is obvious, and the usability is high.
The panoramic mode of the machine can generate 5.5 million pixel samples (4624 * 1200). The resolution is not high, the stitching trace is light, and there is slight scene distortion. However, the panoramic angle is close to 270 degrees, which is much larger than most domestic models.
In general, the performance of the 13 million pixel camera of Jinli S6 is in line with its price expectations, and the daytime discrimination is OK, while the night weak light performance is relatively brilliant. The night view, panoramic and other functional modes also have good usability, which adds a lot of points to their cameras.
performance
CPU computing ability test
GPU graphics performance test
Flash memory read/write speed test
The machine adopts MediaTek's eight core 1.3GHz processor, with 3G memory and 32G ROM, and can support up to 128G memory card expansion. Its actual running score is close to that of Snapdragon 615, but the Jinli S6 is equipped with 3G memory, and its overall performance is relatively balanced, without obvious shortcomings. In addition, with large memory and lightweight system bonus, the system has high response speed.
Endurance and fever
The 3150mAh large battery, which is rare in the ultra-thin model, together with the MediaTek processor with excellent power consumption control, and the naturally power-saving AMOLED screen, the final endurance performance of the machine is quite good, even catching up with the R7 Plus with 4100mAh battery, and the endurance performance is far away from that of Xiaomi Note and Note5 with 3000mAh battery capacity.
In actual use, the power down of the machine is very slow. The power down is 3% after 8 hours of online standby. It is estimated that it is also one of the best slim mobile phones.
In addition, the system has integrated the emergency power saving mode, which only retains the four functions of dialing, contact, information and clock after opening, which can greatly reduce the power consumption of the mobile phone. This function will be very practical if you forget to charge before going out or cannot charge nearby.
Heat control is the traditional advantage of MTK equipment. During daily use and even running, the machine rarely reaches the temperature of warm hands. Under the ambient temperature of 29.2 degrees, after running NBA2K15 for half an hour, the highest temperature at the front of the fuselage appeared at the lower right side of the receiver, 41.2 degrees; The highest temperature on the back of the fuselage appears on the right side of the camera, which is 38.9 degrees. The heat control is excellent.
summary
The important feature of Jinli S6 is its shiny metal body and workmanship, which has good appearance and workmanship. AMOLED screen has excellent color saturation and visual angle, 3G memory and lightweight system addition, and its smoothness has even exceeded many flagship computers.
What's more impressive is that the machine has 3150mAh battery inserted into the 6.9 mm ultra-thin body, which has excellent actual endurance performance. Everyone has the impression that ultra-thin fuselage is always contradictory to performance and endurance. Jinli S6 is one of the few machines that can balance thickness and endurance. This alone deserves reflection from many other manufacturers.
