Most people must have a small dream in their childhood, that is, to be a policeman or a soldier, so that they can have a gun like in TV, and they can not be afraid of anyone, punish the evil and promote the good and become a great hero. The pocket money my mother gave me when I was a child was basically not used to buy snacks like other children. Instead, I secretly saved up to buy various toy guns and ran to the street to show off with other children. Therefore, I am really glad to get the trial opportunity of PP GUN mini, and thank you for the valuable trial opportunity provided by the company. Let's listen to my strength blow!

Appearance introduction

The external package of PP GUN mini is packed in a paper box, with a cartoon pattern of PP GUN mini painted on the cover. The logo label for computer trial, and the logo and official website of PP GUN mini are pasted on the upper left corner as usual. The logo of Apple and Android on the lower left corner represents that it can adapt to these two most popular systems. There is a caption "Mobile phone first person shooting game controller" printed beside it. What is worth mentioning on the back of the box is an additional label paper (there is no map here, please forgive me), on which is printed the CDKEY (registration code) of PP GUN mini. This registration code should be the code that needs to be entered when adapting PP GUN mini to jailbreaking Apple devices.

After unpacking, take out the suitcase of PP GUN mini. The design of the suitcase can be said to be full of sincerity, high-end atmosphere, quite a bit like the gun box in the movie. The box should be made of Lycra fabric the same as Xiaomi's VR glasses toy version, with the logo of PP GUN mini printed on it, which is very cool.

The zipper is pulled in two directions, smooth and smooth without any sticking, and also has a logo.

Unpack! All accessories of PP GUN mini are orderly placed in the foam tank. Foam has played a good buffer and protection role for various accessories.

Accessories mainly include PP GUN mini handle host, charging bracket, handle grip, mobile phone bracket, pistol grip, extended guide rail, screwdriver, USB charging cable, screwdriver, spare screw, instructions and battery back cover with different thickness to adapt to players of different sizes and hands. In addition, they also presented magic armbands, key chain pendants and a game gift package of the national gun king. It can be said that everything is dazzling, which shows how considerate the merchants are for the players.

Just after opening the box, we can see that the main body of the pistol is not a conventional gun, but a straight plate. In fact, this is one of its functions: self timer. Although it is a little short, it can be used as a selfie rod for emergency after being equipped with an extended guide rail.

Then we press and hold the key at the position indicated by the red arrow, and rotate it to get the gun type game handle. There is a four-way key and four function keys on the right side of the gun body. Each key can be customized according to its own usage habits.

The front end of the left side is a five way rocker, and the middle is a switch. When the switch is turned to the left, it is on and has its own vibration effect to imitate the sitting force after firing. When it is turned to the middle, it is the vibration mode of closing the pistol, and when it is turned to the right, it is off. When it comes to recoil force, its simulated recoil force system must be mentioned. The white part above the red light simulates the position where the gun exits the cartridge case in reality. The white slider can slide back and forth under the drive of the built-in small motor and make a sound of "click click click click click click click click". At the same time, it drives a slight recoil force feedback of the pistol. This design is ingenious, greatly enhances the user experience, and has a strong sense of practical substitution. There are also three function keys on the right, which can be customized. It is worth mentioning that there is a key without a mark on the handle. The instruction manual says that it is a gyroscope lock key, which needs to be connected to an external gyroscope module. The author has not used this key. The non slip and sweat proof leather pad at the gun handle is comfortable to grip. The perfect arc design at the trigger is as ergonomic as a real gun. It is very comfortable to buckle and rebound, and the pressing of all buttons is very textured, without any feeling of looseness. In addition to the deformed button on the gun butt, the lower part is the photographing button, which is used when the camera is deformed into a selfie stick.

There is a USB output port hidden under the orange rubber leather cover at the front of the pistol, which supports the power supply of devices less than 1W. It may be a little powerless to charge mobile phones, and this USB port also opens CDK to geeks. The upper and lower sides are the legendary Picardini rails. The upper side is mainly used to install the mobile phone bracket, and the lower side can be installed with pistols and handle grips. However, there is an obvious problem with the guide rail, which is also a problem jointly raised by many users. It is obvious in the figure that a piece of black paint on the corner has fallen off, and it can be easily scraped off with nails. This is a headache and slightly affects the beauty.

Here I have to mention the powerful power supply system of pistols. Remove the battery back cover behind the handgun handle with a small screwdriver specially equipped in the gun box, and you can see this powerful 2600 mA Samsung 18650 battery cell, which greatly enhances the handgun's standby and endurance capability. Above the battery is the charging port of the pistol, which uses Micro USB interface. All the micro USB interface data cables of Android phones at home can be used to charge the PP GUN mini, which is convenient and fast.

Mobile phone bracket, extension guide rail, handle and pistol grip are all installed through Picardini guide rail. To tell the truth, the guide rail and various accessories are already tightly connected. Even if the safety buckle is not fastened, it can ensure that various accessories are firmly fixed on the gun, which is quite safe.

This is the PP GUN mini with almost all the pistol accessories installed, plus the pistol grip and extended guide rail. Does it feel like the future pistol in the science fiction film, which is used to fight aliens, so handsome that it flies!

In addition, PP GUN mini is also equipped with a pistol bracket. There is also a Micro USB interface behind the bracket, which can put the pistol on the bracket for charging. When not playing, it can also be placed on the bracket and placed at home as a craft decoration. Black and white matching and exquisite craftsmanship will make the home particularly high-end and grand, full of science and technology, It can be said that the design of the bracket is also very creative and sincere.

Pistol trial

First, we will introduce the connection method between the pistol and the mobile phone, which must be mentioned again here. PP GUN mini and mobile phone are mainly connected through Bluetooth. The model used by the author is iPhone 5s. For different operating systems and different game modes, the opening mode of the pistol is slightly different, so I will not repeat it here. Please refer to the manual for other system phones. The iOS system is a little simpler. First, scan the QR code in the manual, download a PP GUN application, and trust it in the system settings. Then you don't need to press other keys to directly turn the pistol power on key to the left or middle, and then you must pay attention here when you switch the mobile phone input method to the English input mode of Apple's own input method. Because I didn't see this prompt, I didn't understand why the keys didn't respond when I connected the pistol for a long time. Finally, in the PP GUN application just launched, open the mobile phone Bluetooth search to find the device, and then directly click Connect.

After the connection is successful, a prompt will appear to pull the trigger for pattern recognition. After the trigger is pulled, the next page will appear, which is basically OK, indicating that the phone has been successfully connected to PP GUN mini, and then you can click the next step to test the keys. The corresponding key on the key screen will turn green, indicating that the key is OK. If the next page does not appear after pulling the trigger, it means that PP GUN mini has not been successfully connected, then there is a problem in the step, so please check again from the beginning. Note that when your Bluetooth is connected to PP GUN mini, your third-party input method may not be available, so it is best to switch the input method to the English state before connecting. After all the connections are correct, you can enter the game. The following is an example of the official cooperation game "The Gun King of All".

After entering the game, click the upper left corner to enter the setting page. After selecting the external device tab, select PP GUN mini, and open it as on. You can also click in to customize the key positions and change the key functions according to your own operating habits. Then click the operation tab, turn the gyro aiming on, place the mobile phone flat on the desktop, click the gyro calibration, and it is recommended to calibrate more times to prevent the collimator from drifting. The rest of the sensitivity adjustment can be adjusted according to personal operating habits. Then you can start the game and kill all sides!

After a period of trial play, the total weight of the pistol plus the mobile phone and other accessories is not very heavy, and you don't feel tired after playing for a long time. The feedback force of pulling the trigger is just right. The constant rotation and movement of the gyroscope aiming and the function of the recoil simulation system make the game feel very strong, as if you are in the battlefield. After user-defined keys, basic operations such as changing guns, changing bullets and throwing thunder become more convenient. With more practice and smart positioning, the head popping rate will be greatly increased, which is a real weapon! The author originally wanted to shoot a video and paste it, but the plan ran aground due to limited time.

As for other games, there are few iOS devices that directly support them at present. Most of them need to escape from prison to play.

summary

As the mini pistol version of the world's first mobile gun game controller PP GUN, its functions are not inferior to those of the rifle PP GUN, and even richer than PP GUN in some functions. Moreover, the PP GUN mini is very small, weighing only 200 grams, half of the weight of a bottle of mineral water, and can be deformed, making it easy for players to carry and play wherever they go. On the other hand, the official price of PP GUN mini is only 359 yuan. Compared with the price of more than 1000 yuan, the price of PP GUN mini is more affordable. For many FPS fans, the price of PP GUN mini should be acceptable. After all, PP GUN mini performs very well in terms of gameplay and sense of game substitution.

On the other hand, I want to share a few questions. One is whether left-handed players can easily control this pistol? Will you feel awkward if you use it. Then is it possible to consider developing the application of PP GUN mini on PC platform and other game device platforms, such as Xbox and PS4. This part of the market should also have application potential. After all, there is still a big gap between the small screen of mobile phones and the large screen of TV computers in terms of gameplay and immersive experience. On the other hand, I am more optimistic about the application of VR devices. At present, virtual reality devices are in a hot stage, and most of Lei Jun has begun to test the water on VR. It can be seen that the future of VR should be unlimited. If PP GUN mini can be combined with VR games, it will be a leap forward, Or Simeng Technology can develop its own supporting VR devices and games, which will bring great opportunities and challenges.

ok， Finally, I would like to thank you again for the computer trial and the trial opportunities provided by Simao Technology, and then I would like to thank the amateur photographer, Mr. Li, who helped me take photos. Ha ha... Thanks！
