This year, Xiaomi has spent a lot of time on the Hongmi series. It has hired a spokesperson to help advertise. The model is updated much faster than Xiaomi's product line. In July, the Hongmi Pro was just released, and in August, it brought the Hongmi Note 4. Let's see what's special about Note 4.
Appearance packaging
The packaging is the same as the current Xiaomi products. The only difference is the model below. It is worth mentioning that the packaging of the Hongmi Note 4 is really "very fit". Just right is the width of a machine. Even in today's popular simple packaging, the Hongmi Note 4 can be considered "small and exquisite".
The back routinely shows the details of the model, such as MediaTek's X20 processor, 5.5 inch screen, 4100mAh battery, etc. We Love to play computer games This time, we got the high configuration full Netcom version, 3GB RAM+64GB ROM.
At a glance, there are only instructions, pins, data cables and chargers for all accessories. Unfortunately, when Meizu has released the castration version of fast charging to Meilan, all Hongmi products currently do not support fast charging, and the charger is still 5V/2A output specification.
The dark gray version of the red rice note 4 uses the black front panel. The three touch buttons below have a weak sense of existence. Without turning on the button light, it can almost be integrated with the front panel. The red rice note 4 is the best one in all colors in my opinion.
Turning to the back, the metal three-stage design similar to other brands and the layout pattern of double circles and coaxial lines will make people feel a bit aesthetic fatigue, but this conservative design is the most stable and not aggressive, which is more important for red rice that needs to be measured.
Workmanship details
After looking at the packaging and overall appearance, let's take a closer look at the details of the red rice Note 4. All physical keys are arranged on the left side, including power key and volume key. It is no longer Xiaomi, a new manufacturer. The handling of physical keys is very old. The physical keys are very good in both hand feel and texture.
On the left is only the SIM and microSD card slot. The two pictures show that although the red rice Note 4 uses 2.5D glass, the washer surrounding the screen is slightly higher, and the smooth feel of the 2.5D glass arc is offset, which is a bit more than the cost. In addition, the injection antenna mentioned in the publicity is easy to get dirty, and it will be stained with other colors accidentally.
At the top are noise reduction microphones, infrared and 3.5mm headphone holes in turn. Until today, Xiaomi still has infrared functions in its models, which can really be praised. The two CNC polishing and trimming edges are very obvious, but the edge treatment of the back is not smooth enough. When it is crossed, it will feel like cutting hands but not like cutting hands.
The bottom is designed symmetrically, the middle is a microUSB interface, and the two sides are microphones and speakers. Obviously, the microphone is designed to be beautiful and symmetrical, not to arrange double speakers.
Multi computer comparison
When it comes to Hongmi Note 4, I have to mention its predecessor Hongmi Pro. The front panel of Hongmi Pro is different because of the front fingerprint identification. On the mold, Hongmi Note 4 and Hongmi Pro are almost twins. The same body line, the same injection antenna, and the treatment of holes in the back of Hongmi Pro, if not because the back of Hongmi Pro does not use ordinary sandblasting, These two models are difficult to distinguish.
But at present, the trend of domestic manufacturers in appearance is "the world is the same". If we simply pull out two models without telling the brand, can we easily tell which model they are?
Another one on the upper part of the front. Can you tell me I'm male or female?
It may be much easier to identify when turning to the back, but Xiaomi is still not hot enough in process treatment. With the same three-stage design, injection antenna and sandblasting process, the texture and feel of Miracle E are much better than those of Red Rice Note 4. As a metaphor, Melanie E is like a girl with smooth skin, while the red rice Note 4 is closer to a man who doesn't often take care of her. It seems that the 400 yuan of Melanie E is spent on it.
Different processing methods of the Home key lead to different results. There are three camps: the long bar Home key, the round waist Home key, and the touch/virtual key. Although Google's specification for Android is virtual keys, the opening of Android brings about a hundred flowers blooming.
The three cameras are in a row. There is a way to watch the evolution of elves. From single camera to camera+fingerprint recognition, the final destination is dual camera. Of course, this is just a joke. For the time being, dual camera imaging can't compete with single camera.
Perhaps the "coincidence" in these subtle points is the "love" between Meizu and Xiaomi. For more information about Red Rice Note 4, please pay attention to the detailed evaluation later.
