preface

Meizu has a large number of new products this year, which has been in the forefront of the domestic market for the time being. However, when Meilan Metal came out, the author was still excited. The Qianyuan machine had such a beautiful appearance and matched the powerful performance. I'm afraid Meilan Meta will certainly be a bright star in the Qianyuan machine market. How did it perform? After reading this article, you will make your own decision.

appearance

The packing box is as simple as ever. The reason why Meilan Metal wants to show the packaging is that after Meilan Metal opened the packaging, the original Meilan style film attached to the surface of the mobile phone has now been pasted on the mobile phone packaging box, which not only makes the mobile phone more stable, but also makes it more upscale.

The front design of Meilan Metal is as simple as ever. However, due to the silver edge design around the body, the front view of the phone is more MX series.

On the right side of the phone, the design style of the Meilan series continues, and the volume key+unlock key are still used. I have to say that with the metal silver edge, the side view of Meilan Metal is more thin and generous. On the left side of the phone, the SIM card+SD card slot design continues. In fact, the design of this card slot follows the simple design style of Meizu, which is very nice!

The bottom of the phone is still the design of speaker+MicroUSB interface, and the overall workmanship is very simple and generous.

What is described above seems to be common in Meilan series product lines. Let's see what different design elements Meilan Metal has added:

First of all, it should be the 2.5D screen, which is beautiful and generous, with a better touch feeling and a better visual perception.

Secondly, Meizu's LOGO moves up. However, the most important thing is the metal back shell. Before touching the mobile phone, the author also thought that Meilan metal was obviously metal, but it was coated with a layer of paint, similar to plastic. However, when I really touch the product, I know that this is a mistake. The texture of the back shell is very good. After I touch it, I will know that it is absolutely metal.

Finally, it is the waist round key that continues the shape, but the function of the waist round key with the built-in fingerprint identification function is more powerful. It can be said that the 2.5D screen+all metal body+fingerprint recognition, Meilan Metal, almost integrates the most mainstream functions at present, and the actual touch feeling is very excellent, which is worth using.

System interaction

This time, Meilan Metal has built in a new Flyme5.1 system. Open the phone, everything is so familiar, flat icons, neat distribution. However, the system icon changes from 4 lines to 5 lines.

Let's take a look, What are the changes of Flyme5.1. First, the most prominent thing is that the navigation bar in the settings is cancelled. In this way, it is more prominent theme.

The status bar is more powerful, and all shortcut settings will be displayed after being pulled down. When the notification information is available, the cancelled "X" number is moved to the bottom of the status bar, which is more convenient for operation.

Multi tasking finally adopts preview style, which is much stronger. What is worth noting here is that some applications can be processed in separate screens. For example, WeChat and QQ can be displayed on the same page at the same time, which is more convenient to use; The use efficiency of the screen is greatly improved.

Meizu will also implement other interfaces concisely. For example, the photographing interface adopts the background virtualization+large icon setting mode; The dialling interface, which is pure black, is very beautiful.

It can be said that Meilan Metal or Flyme5.1 is more humanized and interactive in system design.

Battery

As an old user of Meilan 2, the author has been dissatisfied with the charging time. The charging time of Meilan 2 is about 2.5 hours. However, the performance of Meilan Metal is much better. 15-99% of the power needs only 1 hour and 40 minutes.

In terms of standby, the author believes that daily use is the most frequently used by users. During the test, the author conducted the test from 8:00 to 17:00 during the daily working hours.

The author's usage habits: about 20 phones (about 2 minutes each), WeChat QQ 、 The web page will be refreshed when I think about it. They didn't deliberately use more or less mobile phones. After a normal day of use, the battery still has 52% left, which can fully meet the demand of a day's use.

Camera experience

The photo taking experience of Meilan Metal was also unexpected. It can be said that the focusing speed, photographing speed, and imaging effect are too much higher than that of the Meilan 2, which is almost comparable to mainstream high-end mobile phones.

In terms of perspective and close-up view, we have achieved a clear hierarchy; The color is also very full.

The macro effect is good, and the details are well grasped, and the color is prominent.

In addition, Meilan Metal has a fast focusing and imaging speed, and can quickly capture waves, which is basically applicable to most shooting requirements.

When the indoor light is bright, the color and light saturation are very good, and the overall noise is properly controlled. It seems that Meilan Metal has really achieved both internal and external cultivation.

Under the night view, Magic Blue Metal is not inferior. Although I feel a little warm overall, the overall noise control is quite powerful. I like it!

Meilan Metal's photo experience, far beyond the author's expectations, has also set an example in the 1000 yuan machine market.

fingerprint identification

This time, the biggest surprise is probably fingerprint recognition. In the actual experience, with Meizu's 2nd generation fingerprint identification technology, the recognition rate is very high. In addition, Meizu can encrypt documents and other functions, which is really one of the essential factors for purchasing mobile phones.

summary

Objectively speaking, in the process of using Magic Blue Metal, the author was surprised repeatedly. Thanks to the powerful

Helio X10 processor (the official score exceeds 50000), the author thinks that the mainstream 3D games and 1080P videos that are more than enough for Meilan 2 are not important.

Meilan Metal is much better than the previous generation of products or other products at the same price in terms of body processing technology, fingerprint identification, photography, and system interaction experience.

Of course, there may be some details that can also be seen on the Magic Blue Metal this time. For example, the 5.5 inch screen lacks the pull-down and hover function on the built-in Flyme5.1 system, which has a great impact on single hand operation in the actual experience.

The flaws do not hide the merits. This Meilan Metal has done a meticulous job in details, and has achieved better performance in power consumption processing, photography and other functions that are most often required. It is worth using and experiencing.

Recommended people: people with a budget of about 1000 yuan and with mainstream functions.
