Vivo, as one of the major brands of domestic mobile phones, has enough highlights to draw attention to each new product. For example, the Xplay3S mobile phone, which focuses on HIFI audio quality, and the Xshot camera, which focuses on photography, have all been recognized by the market. The first mobile phone bought by sister paper with her own money in her life is the Xplay3S bought by thrift in school, It was for the big screen and the best sound quality mobile phone that I went there. After all, I spent more time in my dorm in college days. A mobile phone with a good voice can kill a lot of time. In March this year, vivo launched the third generation product of the flagship series of Xplay at the Beijing Water Cube. The first domestic dual curved screen mobile phone caused a lot of excitement in the market. After two years of waiting, there are still many highlights of Xplay5. In the following content, Li Mei Paper will experience these highlights one by one, and some of them will be attached with videos.

Sister Paper got the standard version. First, let's take a look at the configuration parameters:

• 5.43 inch 2K two-sided curved AMOLED screen

• Standard version is equipped with Snapdragon 652 processor

• 4G RAM and 128G ROM

• Front 800W camera and rear 1600W IMX298 camera

• Back pressing fingerprint identification

• 3600mAh battery

• Integrated forming of aluminum magnesium alloy

• Rose Gold

Double side curved screen

One of the biggest highlights of Xplay5 this time is probably the two-sided curved screen. Since Samsung used the curved screen, domestic mobile phone manufacturers have also been ready to move, but this time Vivo won the first place. There seems to be a lot of controversy about the curved screen. My personal feeling is that the curved screen has first added some beauty to the appearance of the mobile phone, and brought some freshness. There are indeed a lot of ordinary screen phones and 2.5D screen phones, and consumers are not surprised by it, So the arrival of curved screen has also attracted many eyeballs.

The touch experience of the curved screen is completely different from that of the appearance to increase the face value. The most obvious thing is the effect of fingers sliding. Sliding to the edge is more smooth and smooth. It is really not affected by the frame. Some people on the Internet have described it as silky.

In addition, the effect of the curved surface on both sides of the screen can also reduce the thickness of the phone visually. The aluminum magnesium alloy integrated molding process also adds some points to the phone's appearance. There are two options: champagne gold and rose gold. As a sister paper, I definitely don't want to choose rose gold.

The 5.43 inch size is much better for the one handed control of sister paper than my old mobile phone Xplay3S. In addition to the more suitable size, the weight is indeed much lighter than the large screen mobile phone. The curved screen of Xplay5 belongs to YOUM flexible AMOLED panel technology. Compared with the curved screen of Samsung mobile phone, the width of vivo arc edge is narrower, and the angle of arc edge bending is similar. Unfortunately, the "bending" of Xplay5 is not thorough enough, so it may be difficult to increase the function of curved surface application. The screen is embedded in a white border. The whole screen is completely black in the black screen state. When the screen is lit, the white background will still show black borders, but they are on both sides of the curved surface. Therefore, the visual impact is not as obvious as the black border of ordinary mobile phones, and it is not easy to get noticed. The 2560X1440 resolution 2K screen looks fine, and the font is particularly delicate. The brightness of the screen can be seen clearly both indoors and outdoors in the sun. At night, when the screen is in white, the white border around the screen will have some light transmission, and the border will look slightly yellow.

In fact, the online controversy of the curved screen mainly focuses on what functions the curved screen can bring to users and what practical functions it has. At present, the curved screen of Xplay5 is not completely equipped, but has two practical functions. One is that the curved surfaces on both sides of the touch screen under the lock screen interface will have a beautiful glow effect, as shown below:

In addition, when the black screen of the mobile phone is placed on a flat desktop with the screen facing down, when there is an incoming call, the curved surfaces on both sides of the screen will have a wavy dynamic light and shadow effect, which is very beautiful. Sister Paper recorded a video for your reference. I am looking forward to the future that the waves on both sides of this function can display waves of different colors according to different contacts, and further enrich.

Appearance function

On the top of the front of the Xplay5 is the front camera, earpiece and sensor. The front camera is 800W pixels without fill light.

The fuselage is an integrated aluminum magnesium alloy with a delicate surface. The rose gold pink looks natural and lovely. The common three-stage structure ensures that there are two white plastic strips above and below the signal. The rear 1600W pixel IMX298 camera is in the upper left corner, and there are two dual color temperature fill lights beside it. The camera is only slightly protruding from the body, and the thickness is well controlled. The middle of the upper part is a fingerprint identifier, which is small in area. There is a bevel between the corners and the body. It is comfortable to touch and slide with fingers. There is a logo of vivo in the middle of the back.

The volume button and power button are concentrated on the right side. The key range is obvious and the feedback is good. There is a slight looseness between the key and the body, but it is not serious and belongs to the normal range.

The headphone jack and one of the dual noise canceling microphones are on the top.

The external speaker is a single speaker designed on the side of the body, with six small round holes on the right side, so the flat desktop will not affect the volume of answering calls. The three small round holes on the left are lower microphones, and the small round holes on the bottom are not symmetrical.

The location of the card slot is different from that of many mobile phones. At the lower left side, the card slot is a side-by-side dual card slot design. The Xplay5 supports all Netcom, both dual cards support 4G, and both are nano card slots. Because the body has 128G of memory, the card slot does not support TF card expansion. (128G should be enough for playing small videos~~~

Funtouch OS

Sister Paper is an old user of Vivo. She bought an Xplay3S mobile phone in college, so she is very familiar with the Funtouch OS of Vivo and has witnessed every update and improvement. The version number of the Funtouch OS of Xplay5 during this experience is 2.5.1. The core of Android 5.1.1 is that in addition to maintaining the previous convenient bottom sliding menu mode, it also adds many functions, making the system more convenient.

The functions of intelligent body sense, intelligent light screen and smart wake are reserved.

The HIFI sound effect when the headset is plugged in supports not only the iMusic player and video player provided by the system, but also Netease Cloud Music, QQ Music and other online players. Vivo also pays more attention to the low delay ear return technology and professional reverberation effect in karaoke. It provides many mainstream mobile karaoke software, such as Tianlai karaoke, Singing Bar, and National karaoke, for direct download.

In the system, we can see that the standard version of the mobile phone has its own storage capacity of 4G and memory of 128G. In the promotion of vivo Xplay5, there is a "smart engine" that has attracted the attention of sister paper, which seems to be very magical. In fact, a simple smart engine is to optimize the system, make the system more smooth, more durable, and intelligent distribution management.

In addition to the frequently used super screenshot function, the quick slide up menu at the bottom also adds the frequently used WeChat scanning function.

The super screenshot function has always been a favorite of sister paper. There are long screenshots, graphic screenshots, sleeve lock screenshots, graffiti screenshots, and rectangular screenshots. You can take screenshots in a fixed way, or you can customize the screenshot area to take screenshots, such as drawing your own hearts, fonts, and so on.

Xplay5 also supports dual carrier aggregation 4G+network technology, which can achieve greater download rate.

In the current era of enormous information, many people have several WeChat or QQ accounts. Usually, one account is difficult to meet the requirements, and it is troublesome to switch back and forth between multiple accounts. Xplay5's application separation function can be said to be an excellent function like the curved screen, which can simultaneously integrate WeChat QQ、 Taobao opens two accounts and logs in to use them at the same time, so you don't need to switch between multiple accounts frequently.

After the application separation is enabled in the system settings, the supported applications will display a+sign in the lower right corner of their icon. Click it to open the desktop icon of the second application for use.

The multi screen and multi task function is also a good function. When messages come from the full screen interface, there will be a hover icon on the screen. For example, when I watch videos, when there is any message from QQ, the penguin icon will be displayed. Click it to display information and open QQ information. You can adjust the screen size of dual applications when splitting screens. Look, my husband Song Zhongji is so handsome~

Fingerprint function

Fingerprint identification has become one of the indispensable hardware configuration functions on mobile phones. Xplay5 uses a rear press fingerprint identification module. The fingerprint identification device is located at the back of the body, and the square area of the identification device is small. There is an inclined transition between the identification device and the back aluminum magnesium alloy body, so the touch control feels good. The fingerprint identification official of Xplay5 said that the unlocking time in the on screen state was 0.2 seconds, and the unlocking time in the off screen state was 0.4 seconds. In fact, the unlocking speed of Xplay5 was really fast, and it was relatively sensitive. Both the finger tip and the fingertip touch response were very fast.

A total of 5 fingerprints can be entered. The method of entry is finger touch fingerprint recognition. The efficiency and speed of entry are still very fast.

Meizhi made a fingerprint identification input and unlocking video for your reference:

At present, Xplay5's fingerprint recognition has practical expansion of other functions besides unlocking, such as self taking with touch fingerprint recognition.

It is much more convenient to use fingerprint for online banking payment, Alipay transfer and shopping on Taobao.

photograph

To experience Vivo mobile phones, you must talk about the photography part. After all, since the advent of the camera Xshot, Vivo mobile phones have always performed well in photography. It can also be seen that Vivo has always attached great importance to the photography effect of its own products. The rear camera of the Xplay5 is a 1600W pixel IMX298 camera with a F2.0 aperture and a PDAF phase detection auto focusing system. However, the lack of optical anti shake makes Meizhi a little disappointed.

The camera of the system comes with normal shooting mode and professional mode. I believe many friends are familiar with it. The Xshot professional mode in those days has won many praises. Of course, some people say that the interface is a mimic of Nokia. No matter what, this full screen operation mode is very convenient.

The operation interface of the camera is relatively simple. Clicking on the three white dots in the upper right corner is the mode selection, including HDR, panorama, night view, ultra clear image quality, document correction, motion anti shake, professional photography, slow lens and fast lens. Below you can control the camera's detail settings, such as shutter sound, voice shutter, touch shutter, delayed photographing, gender detection, photo proportion and video size.

The filter mode is also rich.

The auto focusing system of PDAF phase detection focuses quickly and accurately, almost unconsciously, and it is especially obvious in the daily life of sister paper. Focus can also be adjusted manually. There is a progress bar beside the focus center when focusing to adjust the exposure. It is familiar with many mobile phones on the market.

The following are some samples of the Xplay5 mobile phone, including shooting in dark light and in various weather conditions during the day. All samples are original pictures without any post production for your reference.

Charging and endurance

Xplay5 supports dual engine flash charging. We learned from the Internet that Vivo has developed a fast charging technology on the premise of compatibility with international mainstream fast charging protocols. The dual engine flash charging technology uses the parallel charging mode of dual charging chips. During the fast charging process, two charging chips work at the same time. Through the dual chip architecture, the charging efficiency of each IC can be effectively improved, It enables the charging chip to safely and efficiently continuously convert energy to the battery, and the income and efficiency of each charging chip are improved. The overall temperature rise of the mobile phone terminal is also better. The vertical design of the power adapter does not take up space on the plug-in board, and supports 5V and 9V outputs. I think the concept is too abstract, so let's use the actual charging test data!

The battery capacity of the Xplay5 is 3600mAh, which is basically the mainstream capacity of the current high-end mobile phones. It starts to charge from the remaining 10% of the mobile phone, records every 10 minutes, charges 54% in half an hour, and charges 89% in one hour. It takes 1 hour and 24 minutes to fully charge the battery, and the speed is very fast. In ordinary life, the emergency charge can basically charge about 15% of the power in 10 minutes, The dual engine flash charge effect is still obvious.

In the endurance test, it is not from 100% power, but from 70% or 80% random power for many times, which is closer to the real use in daily life. The screen brightness is turned on to 50%, the volume is adjusted to 50%, and the music, video, microblog, and game are tested for half an hour respectively. During the test, the music is online music listening, the video is Youku online video, and the game is tribal conflict royal war. The test results show that the power consumption of music is 2%, that of video is 7%, that of microblogging is 6%, and that of game is 10%.

music

The HiFi of Xplay5 uses the CS4398 DAC+AD45257 scheme. Sister Paper is not a headphone enthusiast, but has always liked listening to music. When I bought the Xplay3S in college, I was aiming at the HIFI sound quality. Photography and sound quality have always been the strengths of vivo mobile phones. At present, the most commonly used earphone is the XE800 earphone attached to the Xplay3S. Although it is not a special high-end earphone, the sound quality is still good, and the small size is also suitable for use on the road. When using Netease Cloud Music to play songs online, the voice is smaller and the sound field is narrower without turning on HIFI. After turning on HIFI, the voice appears more transparent, the volume is larger, the resolution is better, and the sound field is wider. Listening to popular songs will feel more relaxed. It works well with the XE800. Generally, the volume needs to be turned to less than 50% to be loud enough. The high-frequency sound is very bright without any burr. It has a light and delicate feeling. The voice features a young style, and has a little fresh taste.

Well, the test experience of Sister Paper is here for the time being. On the whole, Xplay5 is a phone with good appearance and workmanship, and its overall performance is very balanced. The highlights are mainly focused on the curved screen Funtouch OS、 Fingerprint, photography and music, among which the sound quality of photography has always been the traditional advantage of vivo mobile phones, and some other new highlights have been added, which is more diligent and sincere. Many detailed functions of the Funtouch OS system are well done. After years of accumulation, the Funtouch OS has become very mature and easy to use.
