2016 is destined to be a year of tablet computer reform. Since Apple shocked the industry with the launch of iPad Pro, and Microsoft launched Surface Book to kill the former, many manufacturers in the industry have started to launch two in one tablet notebook products. Whether it is a major international brand, a major domestic brand, or even a small domestic brand, the two in one tablet notebook has really got a hot development in 2016. But in fact, most of the two in one tablet notebooks are still expensive, and the evaluation subject brought by the author today is indeed a product with high cost performance. What product can stand out? Let's take a look at the following evaluation content!

(This evaluation product comes from the trial run of Lei Feng.com. Thank you for the evaluation opportunity provided by the trial run of Lei Feng.com.)

Appearance: perfect color matching and considerate details

In fact, as can be seen from the above figure, this is a product from Kubi Rubik's Cube. Its specific model is MIX PLUS. The main body of this product is a tablet, and it is a Windows tablet product. Obviously, its main focus is not entertainment.

Although the most important part of the Kubi Rubik's Cube MIX PLUS is only the tablet host, it can form a notebook form with a keyboard that has dramatically improved productivity, and the blessing of Windows attributes can make this Kubi Rubik's Cube MIX PLUS extremely suitable for mobile office, which is why there are as many as three packages in the previous article, one is the tablet, the other is the keyboard, and the third is the stylus.

In an era when metal materials are widely used on mobile devices, the Qobi Cube MIX PLUS is certainly not behind. The metal material of the body is very textured, while the silver is very scientific.

MIX PLUS only has Windows system, and it does not have dual systems like some entertainment oriented tablets. The Microsoft logo at the bottom of the screen is the only identification.

There is a front camera at the top of the screen, but the largest user of this camera believes that it is still used for office video conferencing, because the camera's pixels are really limited, only 2 million pixels, obviously it is difficult to take photos, even self portraits. In fact, the rear camera of MIX PLUS is also relatively ordinary, and the configuration of 5 million pixels can't be used for too many powerful operations.

Similar to most tablets, the MIX PLUS power key and volume increase/decrease key are both located on the same side of the body. However, because the tablet itself is large, it is impossible to operate with one hand. It must be normal to hold the keys with one hand.

The side corresponding to the power key is provided with two magnetic suction ports for connecting the keyboard and the keyboard connection port. It must be admitted that the plug-in magnetic suction port design of MIX PLUS is perfect for the stability of the plate, and some only have two pure non plug-in magnetic suction ports, which makes people worry that the plate will fall.

Most of the interfaces of MIX PLUS are placed on the same side, including the headphone jack and microphone jack, TF card slot, Type-C interface, USB3.0 interface, and DC charging interface. It can be seen that if you do not cooperate with the keyboard, there will be few USB interfaces. Users who are used to various external devices will be in great pain.

However, once the keyboard is equipped, there is a USB interface on both sides of the keyboard, and the scalability of MIX PLUS is greatly improved. If there are not enough, you can also use a USB interface connector to meet the requirements of more USB interfaces.

MIX PLUS is also sparing no effort to create entertainment videos. From the design of double speakers on one side, it can be seen that although this tablet is a business oriented type, it also takes into account some entertainment.

This keyboard of MIX PLUS is designed reasonably, with moderate clearance between keys, almost zero misoperation rate of typing, and very comfortable keys. However, the two buttons on the touch panel seem slightly soft. Of course, the quality of the touch panel itself is quite good.

As far as the appearance is concerned, the design of the MIX PLUS is relatively good. The overall workmanship is of a certain standard. The metal body also has a very good texture. Although the panel itself has fewer interfaces, it can still work well with the keyboard.

Screen: perfect performance under mobile office

As a mobile office product, the screen of MIX PLUS needs to adapt to extremely frequent scene changes. The author tries to place MIX PLUS in different environments, such as indoor, outdoor and dark light. Here are some live pictures.

According to the above live shot test results, the MIX PLUS screen performs well in different scenes, the screen color does not appear very strange color deviation, and in terms of the adaptability of brightness, the adjustment ability of the MIX PLUS screen is also quite timely, and the screen will change rapidly with the change of ambient light.

Hardware: The core of mobile devices can also soar

MIX PLUS uses the seventh generation of Kabylake chip, which increases its computing power by about 20%. However, this is also a chip used for mobile devices. According to Master Lu's score, its score is 63885, which is not so ideal, and it seems that the hardware configuration of the product corresponding to this score is lower. However, the significance of today's run points is more instructive, and it is not strongly related to the actual experience.

In terms of video and audio playback, the author tried to test the classic 4K short film Beauty and Roast Duck. However, even at the highest 60 frames, MIX PLUS was able to cope with the situation without being stuck. It can be seen that MIX PLUS is basically a pass kill state for video playback.

In terms of large-scale games, the author tried Dungeons and Warriors. MIX PLUS is almost smooth in the whole process of operation. Even with fierce battle scenes and various skills, it can perfectly interpret the battle situation.

The MIX PLUS is pre installed with the Win10 system, so the use of the OFFICE software will be very handy, and the MIX PLUS, which focuses on mobile office, must also be equipped, so the office attribute is also the main function of MIX PLUS.

It must be admitted that the hardware performance of MIX PLUS has reached a high level. The author seldom gets stuck when multiple applications are running at the same time. The single application is very smooth. It is very good for mobile office and home.

Heat dissipation: how to volatilize heat without fans?

The MIX PLUS processor is not equipped with a fan. How to solve the problem of heat dissipation? The author also carried out a simple monitoring with Master Lu:

It can be seen from the above figure that when a large game is running, the hardware temperature of MIX PLUS will be higher, up to 70 degrees. In the normal use state, the hardware temperature is well controlled, about 50 degrees, which is very close to the level of ordinary desktop computers. It must be mentioned that even though the hardware displayed by Master Lu reaches 70 degrees, the touch of the MIX PLUS fuselage is not so high. It can be inferred that the metal material of the fuselage and the design of the internal space structure are of great help to heat dissipation, otherwise it will not be possible to achieve extremely rapid heat dissipation. According to other netizens' disassembly, MIX PLUS added a large copper plate on the back plate of the fuselage to help heat dissipation.

Endurance and charging: can "wave" for a long time

In terms of endurance, the author tests that it can take about 7 hours to surf the web, 5 hours to play large games, and 8-9 hours to use them comprehensively. As a result, it is quite good.

The standard configuration of MIX PLUS is a 12V/2A DC charging head, which is slightly different from many Type-C devices. However, the charging indicator lights up when the Type-C interface is used for charging, but it actually shows that it is not charging, which is a strange situation. The whole charging process of MIX PLUS takes about 3 hours, which is acceptable for the tablet.

Summary: a new tool for mobile office

In general, the performance of Kubi Rubik's Cube MIX PLUS has reached a good level, with outstanding office performance and entertainment ability. The 2K+price obviously exceeds the entertainment tablet of about 1K, and even has the momentum to challenge the office 2-in-1 tablet notebook. Although its ability is not up to the level of Surface Book, it is enough to deal with general mobile office. Therefore, users who travel frequently and have low requirements for computer performance will be potential users of this product.
