Only a few days after CES ended, ASUS brought us another new mobile phone, the Pegasus 3s. At this time, only half a year has passed since the release of Pegasus 3. From the perspective of hardware parameters, this machine still has many highlights.
Screen: 5.2 inch 1080p IPS screen
Processor: MediaTek MT6750 (4 x 1.5GHz+4 x 1.0GHz eight core A53 architecture)
Memory: 3GB
Storage space: 32GB/64GB, up to 2TB expansion
Camera: 13 million pixels, f/2.0 aperture, IMX258， Phase focusing
Battery capacity: 5000mAh
System version: "Easy 3.1" UI based on Android 7.0
Others: fingerprint identification, 2.5D front panel glass, dual color temperature flash lamp
level of appearance
At first glance, the most impressive thing about the Pegasus 3s is its beautiful appearance. It is not a very amazing feeling, but the more you look at it, the better it looks. The black metal combined with 2.5D glass, coupled with the iconic ASUS logo with a game performance notebook embedded in the body, it feels like you are holding a ROG series laptop.
In addition, Pegasus 3s also adopts a special antenna design. The upper part of the antenna is integrated with the frame. In addition, this is a black version, so there is no sense of disobedience from the back. Asustek officially calls it the dome antenna design, but the back of the aircraft is not a whole piece of metal, and there is a small piece of plastic underneath, In addition, a certain color difference will be formed under the irradiation of strong light, but this will not have any impact on the appearance.
In addition to looking good, the touch is also excellent. The small and light metal body, together with the curved front glass, makes every slide very pleasant. It also has more than 90% metal, but the workmanship of the keys is slightly ordinary, Love to play computer games （ WeChat official account: I love computer/computer ）The volume key and power key of the Pegasus 3s are loose. It is not clear whether this is a case or a large area, The feel of the Home key is also a bit hard, the pressure is too strong, and the feedback is too soft. This is something that needs to be improved. However, this is an engineering machine after all, and it should not occur when the machine is officially launched. In addition, the speed of fingerprint recognition can be said to be superior, not only fast, but also accurate.

system
Like Pegasus 3, the Pegasus 3s is equipped with the Android 7.0 based painless 3.1 system. Like the naming, the overall feeling of the whole system is that it will be easy in many aspects. For example, you can scroll left under the home screen to view various convenient subscription information, such as ordering a takeout when working overtime, charging a phone bill when your mobile phone runs out of money, etc., and you can also browse various real-time news.
Another feature of the trouble free system is "earn+". You can do tasks in the personal center to earn Zen coins, and these virtual currencies are genuine. You can exchange call fees, traffic, red envelopes, etc. in the Zen coin mall, which is very interesting. SMS+is to transform ordinary SMS into graphic cards, which is somewhat similar to that of hydrogen OS. The overall use experience is good, and the important content is clear at a glance.
More importantly, this system is based on Android 7.0, so it naturally has some new features of native Android, such as supporting split screen multitasking, double clicking the task key to switch apps, etc. It is also very easy to use. Like most domestic customized systems, there is no secondary menu. Although there is a button similar to the secondary menu on the main screen, it is actually just an application store after clicking.
Screen and performance
The 5.2 inch 1080p IPS display screen, no matter in terms of ppi or screen size, is quite adequate. In the actual use process, the relatively low reflectivity makes it very visible outdoors. Another small advantage is that the display screen of Pegasus 3s will not easily be stained with fingerprints, which is worth affirming, Next, let's look at the data tested by professional instruments.
The color temperature is 6543K, the contrast is 1194:1, and covers 87% of the color gamut. The average deltaE is 4.4, and the maximum deltaE is 8.8. From the test data, there is still room for improvement on this screen, especially in the color level. But in fact, the viewing experience is good, and the visual angle and brightness are satisfactory. In addition, this tester does not show light leakage.
Inside the fuselage is a MT6750 eight core processor of MediaTek, with an eight core A53 architecture of 4 x 1.5GHz+4 x 1.0GHz, The GPU is Mali-T860, with 3GB of memory and 32GB of storage space. Combined with the positioning and price, the processing performance is enough to meet the needs of daily use. Small apps and games are also familiar with running, but it will be a little difficult to run large games such as the NBA 2K series, but it is also expected.
photograph
The Pegasus 3s is equipped with a 13 million pixel camera, Sony IMX258 sensor, f/2.0 aperture, 1/3.06 inch, 1.12 μ m, dual color temperature flash, and support phase focusing. The camera interface is very simple, but it does not lose functionality. In addition to a variety of photographing modes, it also supports manual mode, with a wealth of adjustment options, such as ISO, white balance, shutter speed, etc., which is highly playable and suitable for users who like to set parameters by themselves. Next, let's look at a group of its shooting samples.
In general, the imaging quality of the Pegasus 3s in the daytime is good, the brightness and purity are satisfactory, and the camera will automatically trigger the night view mode when the light is insufficient. This function usually only appears on the flagship machine, and I like it. But also when the light is insufficient, the Pegasus 3s will be difficult to find the focus, It is believed that this situation will be corrected after the official launch.
Endurance
After Love Computer（ WeChat official account: I love computer/computer ）After the endurance test of, the remaining power of the Pegasus 3s is 84%, which can be said to be very good. Thanks to the 5000mAh battery, 1080p screen and MT6750 processor, it is fully enough to reach the level of charging once every two days. You don't need to worry when you are out.
summary
From the perspective of the positioning of the Pegasus 3s, its performance is remarkable. It not only has a very good appearance at first glance, but also has a very good grip. Compared with products of the same level and price, the metal materials used are not inferior, if not inferior. What's more, in terms of endurance, it has a 5000 mAh battery capacity. With the 1080p screen and the MT6750 processor of MediaTek, even if it is used in high intensity for a whole day, there is no need to worry about a sudden low power shutdown. It is very confident. Looking at the small body, it is impossible to imagine that such a large battery can be inserted.
1999 yuan（ 64GB version ）The official price also makes it quite competitive. The Pegasus 3s combines a good appearance and several pain points that can hit users. At the same time, it is also equipped with some hardware that is not available in the same level, such as dual color temperature flash light, 5000 mAh battery and Sony sensor, which can be said to be a step up performance. Although there are some small problems of one kind or another, But it does not affect the overall strength of Pegasus 3s.
