When I mention Blue Devil, I think the first thing you think of is the early MP3 brand and the relatively popular tablet brand in recent years. As an old brand electronic digital manufacturer, after half a year's warm-up, on July 13, 2015, the "Nothing to Fear and Do - 2015 Blue Devil Mobile Phone New Product Conference" was held in Beijing, officially releasing its first smartphone MOS1. Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone is the first smart phone launched by Blue Devil and BYD. The biggest highlight of the appearance is the original five sided crystal edge metal middle frame, which breaks the status quo of "straight or arc" of metal middle frame. It is square in the circle, round in the square, rigid and soft, and brings excellent hand experience. At the same time, the front and back sides are equipped with 2.5D curved glass, and the 1.9mm gold narrow frame makes the overall appearance of the phone very high. With the exclusive MOUI1.0 based on Android 5.0 in-depth optimization, it focuses on purity, security, fluency and other features, and claims to implement "zero pre installation", without pre installing any irrelevant third-party software. It is really valuable today when there are more and more pre installed software on mobile phones. The official data is always very attractive, but we have to try it before we know. Today I will take you to carry out an in-depth test of the Blue Devil MOS1, so that you can have a more comprehensive understanding of this phone.
[Unpacking]
▼ The packaging box of Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone is mainly black, and there is a silver "RAMOS" in the middle of the front. The overall design is very simple, and the black packaging box with the silver font is more high-end atmosphere.
▼ There is a white label on the bottom right corner of the back of the packaging box, which introduces the basic configuration parameters of the Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone. This is also a common design method of most mobile phone manufacturers, because it does not allow you to have a simple understanding of the mobile phone in advance.
▼ Open the box and we can see the main body of the Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone inside. The mobile phone occupies the left half of the box, and the right side is marked with the blue Devil logo and mobile phone model in silver font. After taking out the Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone, we can see that the film, instructions, data cable and charging plug are neatly placed at the bottom. Although the free film is very convenient, it would be better to paste it directly.
▼ Blue Magic mobile phone uses BYD 3050mAh large capacity ultra safe lithium battery, which supports QC2.0 fast charging technology, so the packaging box is specially equipped with intelligent charging plug to support fast charging, which allows us to charge the mobile phone more quickly.
▼ Finally, let's take a look at the items in the box. A film, a certificate of conformity, a warranty card, a mobile phone body, a USB data cable, a charging plug and a manual are all the items in the box. Like most mobile phone manufacturers in China, Blue Devil did not equip us with earphones.
[Appearance appreciation]
▼ The overall design of Blue Devil MOS 1 is simple. The front adopts the popular 2.5D arc design, and the third generation glass of Corning Gorilla is used. The edge naturally bends, making the grip feel better.
▼ The front of Blue Magic MOS 1 uses a 5.5 inch 1080p full fitting AHVA true color screen, with a PPI of up to 401, which makes the screen display more delicate, and uses a 1.9mm narrow gold border, which is both beautiful and can better protect the screen.
▼ On the top of the front screen of the body, from left to right, there are sensors, earphones and front camera. The spacing between the three is basically the same, which makes it more beautiful. In addition, there is a hidden LED indicator on the earpiece.
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 does not set special touch keys at the bottom of the screen. Instead, it uses the design method of built-in virtual keys. From left to right, it is followed by the return key, home key and function key. This design makes the front of the phone look cleaner. The two white panels on the top and bottom of the screen are symmetrical.
▼ The back of the phone is also designed with Corning Gorilla third-generation 2.5D curved glass. The glass back cover not only increases the beauty of the phone, but also makes the phone feel more mellow and comfortable. This one in my hand uses champagne gold color matching. It looks like an Apple 6 Plus on the whole, but the glass backplane also has a disadvantage, that is, it has poor fall resistance and is easy to get fingerprints.
▼ The top of the back of the phone is 1300W rear camera, LED flash and noise reduction microphone from left to right. The camera is flush with the back plate and surrounded by a ring of gold metal, which can effectively prevent the lens from being scratched when placed horizontally.
▼ At the bottom left of the back is the speaker. The speaker adopts a long strip design with built-in dust screen, and there are two small plastic bulges on the left and right ends of the speaker, so that even when you place the phone horizontally, you can maintain the maximum output of sound. This small design is also user-friendly.
▼ There is a 3.5mm headphone jack on the top of the phone, a Micro USB jack in the middle of the bottom, a microphone jack beside the USB jack, and two white plastic partitions on the upper and lower ends of the phone frame to ensure the signal reception of the phone.
▼ From the side view, we can see that the original "five sided crystal edge metal middle frame" of Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone is still very unique. For people who are used to seeing the "non straight arc" frame, there is finally another choice.
▼ On one side of the five edged border is the SIM card slot and switch key. The Blue Devil MOS1 only supports a single card, which is slightly inhumane. Now it is basically the age of one person with multiple cards, and the single card design has obviously failed to keep up with the trend.
▼ On the other side of the five edged frame is a separate volume key. The edge of the volume key has also been polished. The surface of the key has the same frosting texture as the frame, and the details are well treated.
▼ In general, the appearance design of Blue Devil MOS1 did not bring us much surprise, but with years of hardware manufacturing experience, Blue Devil MOS1 still has much to praise in terms of workmanship.
[MOUI1.0 Experience]
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 uses MOUI1.0, which is deeply customized based on Android 5.0. It focuses on purity, security, smoothness and other features, and claims that it will implement "zero pre installation" and will not pre install any irrelevant third-party software. Now let's have a personal experience. Entering the main page of the system, no matter the icon style or interface style, it will give you a very simple feeling. The application icons have been redesigned, and the Blue Devil MOUI has indeed achieved "zero pre installation". There is no third-party application pre installed in the mobile phone system, which is really commendable.
▼ The overall design of MOUI1.0 is somewhat IOS style, which is the same as most Android computers in use. You won't feel very strange. There are also some relatively convenient small functions, such as the notification details interface can be accessed from the top of the screen, and the shortcut function interface can be accessed from the bottom of the screen.
▼ Although Blue Devil MOS1 uses the design of built-in virtual keys, the virtual keys can be hidden by clicking the small arrow at the bottom left of the screen, and can be called out only by drawing on the bottom of the screen. This design is very convenient, and it uses a transparent design, which can be better integrated with the background wallpaper.
▼ Press in the blank section of the main page to quickly enter the desktop editing interface, where you can change wallpaper and add desktop widgets.
▼ Since there is no pre installed application software in MOUI1.0, we can download it separately as needed, and the system has also preset an "app store" for everyone to download applications. In the "app store", in addition to downloading applications, we can also download games and wallpapers. All the content in the app store comes from the pea pod, So the resources are rich enough. You can basically find the application games you want to download here.
▼ The overall design style of MOUI1.0 is simple and practical, so you can't see many fancy functions in the MOUI system. Most of the functions are practical, and support the functions of "double click on the screen" and "double click on the screen". However, the sensitivity should be strengthened. The function of "double click on the screen" still occasionally fails. At present, "double click on the screen" It seems that the function only supports operation on the lock screen interface. After testing, clicking on the main interface has no response, and double clicking on the lock screen interface can kill the screen. However, if it can only be used on the lock screen interface, it seems to have no practical effect.
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 uses BYD 3050mAh ultra safe battery, which is basically the same as the battery capacity of most flagship models at present, and supports the latest Qualcomm QC2.0 fast charging technology, which can charge mobile phones by about 15% in 10 minutes. The system comes with a power-saving assistant. The interface is very simple. It only supports opening and closing operations. After opening, the phone will turn orange up and down. The performance of the phone will be reduced, and the corresponding endurance time will be greatly increased. Emergency use is very good.
▼ Finally, let's share a small method that can improve the smoothness of system operation. Of course, many kids have known this for a long time. First, click the "version number" five times in a row in the "About Mobile Phone" interface, open the "Developer Options", and then enter the "Developer Options" to adjust the animation zoom value to "0.5x".
▼ Although we have already passed the stage of running points, the running points can reflect some performance of the mobile phone to some extent. Here we choose two popular test software: Antu Rabbit Evaluation and Master Lu. After the restart, the score of using Anthare to evaluate the score was 33734 points, and Master Lu's score was 32266 points. In general, it should be above the average level. Of course, the score is just a reference. What's the performance of the mobile phone? Let's enter into the in-depth test phase.
▲ Performance score of rabbit
▲ Master Lu's performance score
[In depth experience]
『 Screen test 』
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 uses a 5.5 inch 1080p full fitting AHVA true color screen, which has transparent and natural color transition, and is more eye friendly than ordinary IPS screens. After a simple test, the screen has bright colors and a large viewing angle. When viewed from a nearly parallel angle with the screen, the screen is still clearly visible, except for the slightly white surrounding the screen.
『 Video playback 』
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 has its own player, but we can't find it on the desktop. Only when playing video will there be options. In addition to the player provided by the system, there is also a Baidu player to choose from, but it seems that the default player built in the system supports limited formats, 2K and 4K videos cannot be played. Many videos are not supported by Anthare video player for simple test.
▼ After testing, the player provided by the system can play a limited file format, but after switching to Baidu player, you can play most formats of video, and after testing, you can play 2K video, but it is not very smooth.
Game Experience
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone uses a powerful and efficient Snapdragon 615 eight core 64 bit processor, which can adjust the working state according to the task intelligence to reduce power consumption to a greater extent. It can run large tasks, and the eight cores are fully powered to ensure efficiency and smoothness. With 2GB operation memory and 32GBEMCP mass storage, the game loading speed is faster and more stable.
▼ Here we have selected two popular large-scale 3D games, "Fantastic Flying Car: The Most Wanted" and "NBA 2K15", for the next test. We can see that the game picture of Fantastic Flying Car is clear and exquisite, and the white smoke emitted by Fantastic Flying Car when it drifts is also very real. After more than ten minutes, there is no jam in the middle; Then I tested NBA 2K15, and the picture of the game was very clear, and the expressions of the characters in the game were also very real. However, during the more than ten minutes of running of the game, there would be occasional Carton, but it was not very obvious. During the whole game, the hot area is concentrated in an area at the bottom left of the camera, and the palm will obviously feel hot, but not very hot.
Performance Test
▼ The following is a simple test of the performance of Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone through some professional test software. NenaMark2 is a hardware accelerated benchmark test program for Android devices. It tests the graphics capabilities of mobile phones by demonstrating a real-time rendered image, including reflection, dynamic shadows, surface parameters, complex light modes, etc. The test result of NenaMark2 is 59.1 fps. From this score, we can see that the graphics processing ability of Qualcomm 615 is good.
▼ Vellamo is a benchmark application developed by Qualcomm. It can measure the performance and stability of machine browsers, including Java script performance, rendering, networking and user interface. Of course, the higher the score, the better the performance of the browser provided by the system, and the better the web browsing experience. From the score, the browser provided by the system is not optimized very well, and it seems that some third-party browsers need to be used to make up for it.
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 uses a metal frame. Since the RF signal cannot pass through the metal, this is why there are two plastic partitions at the upper and lower ends of the metal frame. Let's see if the network signal will be affected. In terms of value, the WiFi signal is basically not affected, while the network signal has some impact. The value is basically maintained between - 94dBm and - 105dBm when tested at home in all directions. It is slightly better when tested outdoors, but the number of full cases is relatively small, which is also an unavoidable problem for most metal framed mobile phones.
▼ Experience evaluation is a new function of Master Lu, which can let users intuitively understand the fluency of mobile phones through a series of tests. It enables more non professional ordinary mobile phone users to clearly understand the mobile phone experience from the aspects of desktop usage, APP experience, web content loading and sliding, photo viewing and operation, file copy and startup. Of course, this is still a new function. There is no maximum score. The higher the score, the better the fluency. The score of Blue Devil MOS1 is 98.23, indicating that the fluency of mobile phones should still be at the upper middle level.
『 Battery test 』
▼ Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone uses BYD 3050mAh ultra safe battery, and supports the latest Qualcomm QC2.0 fast charging technology, which can charge the mobile phone about 15% in 10 minutes. Of course, the above is the official data. Let's go to the actual test. The original smart charging plug and USB cable of Blue Devil MOS1 are used here to reduce the error caused by external factors as much as possible.
▼ After a 10 minute charging test, due to the operation of the power screen during the period, the charging power is about 10%, which is still different from the official 15% charging power. Using the same charging plug to charge mobile phones that do not support Qualcomm QC2.0 fast charging for 10 minutes, the power is basically about 6%, which is significantly higher than that of ordinary mobile phones, It can be fully charged from 0 in about one hour and 40 minutes. Previously, 3000mAh batteries generally took more than 2 hours.
▼ The standby time was simply tested. Since it was not noticed at that time, it was the test result when QQ was hung in the background, so it is only for reference. QQ is hung up in the background, and there is no other operation. After about 7 hours of standby time, the power drops from 99% to 94%, and the power consumption is 5%. The result is not very good, but it is also a good result.
[Camera experience]
▼ The Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone uses a 1300W pixel stack type rear camera to achieve 0.3 second fast focusing. With sapphire filter lenses, it can restore a more realistic scene. With a 2.0 aperture, the amount of light can be guaranteed under dark light conditions. The operation interface of the camera is very simple. There are three buttons at the bottom of the interface, from left to right: camera/video switch, capture button, more options, without adding filters, manual mode, etc. Generally, you only need to click the capture button. In fact, the functions can be improved.
▼ Let's take a look at the sample sheet. It basically keeps the original sheet style and only carries out size compression, so some details may be slightly different from the original sheet. First of all, let's take a look at the outdoor shooting effect. The photo has a high degree of restoration to the scenery. Basically, what you take is what you see. Since you failed to travel successfully, you can only find some scenery around and take photos.
▼ Let's see how the indoor shooting is going. Similarly, the degree of restoration of the scene taken indoors is also very high, which can be said to retain the original appearance of the object to the greatest extent. However, such photos are not very pleasing to people's eyes. Due to the limited level of shooting, they are all casual photos, It's mainly to show you the shooting effect of MOS1.
▼ The next part is the night view, which is actually the weakest link of the mobile camera. Most of the mobile phone night shots are not so satisfactory. Of course, the Blue Devil MOS1 is also not immune. In addition, there is no special night view mode adjustment, so it is needless to say that the noise is still needed to be optimized.
Summary
After several weeks of personal experience, the Blue Devil MOS1 is generally very good. The original five sided crystal edge metal middle frame is very innovative, allowing users to have an additional choice. Years of experience in tablet manufacturing has also laid a good foundation for the Blue Devil mobile phone. The workmanship is very meticulous, and the details are handled well. From the perspective of appearance, This is indeed a phone with high appearance. In addition, the Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone is equipped with the MOUI1.0 system, which is deeply customized based on Android 5.0. It focuses on purity, security, fluency and other features. It is really good at "purity". It has no pre installed third-party applications and is equipped with an application store, from which users can directly download, which is very convenient; "Smoothness" is also good, because the system does not have a large number of third-party applications pre installed, so it also lays a good foundation for the smooth operation of the system; but in terms of "security", at least there should be a security center of its own, and its own security should not be handed over to third-party security protection software. I hope this can be added in the future. In addition, the camera still needs to be optimized. The outdoor shooting effect is good in sunny days, but the effect will be greatly reduced in the indoor or evening. At least there should be a manual mode or price night view mode. Of course, this is only the first mobile phone of Blue Devil, and the MOUI system is also the first generation. There is still a long way to go. I hope Blue Devil can bring us more surprises. But I have to say that the workmanship of the Blue Devil MOS1 mobile phone is really good, and some details are also in place, which is commendable.
