Pine cone processor, surging S1 and Xiaomi 5c are three words with high frequency recently, because this processor is independently developed by Xiaomi Special feelings Of the users, they must like processors like Huawei Kirin and Pengpai S1, because this means that they have certain strength. After all, developing processors is not an easy task. It is more difficult to use them in mobile phones, which is why we（ ： Love to play computer games ）I am so interested in this Xiaomi 5c with the surging S1 processor. After all, Well!
appearance
In fact, the appearance is also a highlight of Xiaomi 5c. When the front 2.5D glass lights up the screen, its frame is very narrow, especially on the black body. The author also believes that black is also one of the three color combinations（ Rose gold and gold ）It's the best looking. I suggest you buy black if you want. Turn the phone over to the back. The material on the back is very interesting. Two small parts are made of glass, while the other parts are made of metal. At first glance, it feels like Google Pixel It's a bit similar. Of course, some people say that the iPhone is also right, but no matter what, the feel is very good. With 135g deadweight and 7.05mm thickness, there is almost no burden to put it in the pocket, and it is very thin.
In terms of key layout, Xiaomi has a power key and volume key on the right side of the fuselage, and a noise reducing microphone, 3.5mm headphone interface and infrared transmitter on the top, which can turn Xiaomi 5c into a universal remote control, which is very good.

At the bottom of the fuselage are microphones, USB Type-C connectors and speakers, and on the left is a SIM card slot. It supports dual cards and dual standby, but only mobile is available. For Unicom users, it is a little bit awkward（ In fact, there are eggs. Enter "* # * # 1 # * # *" in the dial interface, and then click TEL assistant - card waiting ability - access technology - five modes - save. Restart to use Unicom ）At the bottom of the front is a long Home key and fingerprint recognition. Although the speed of fingerprint unlocking is not very fast, it is also enough. However, what needs to be said is the feel of the Home key. Because it is too flush with the screen, it doesn't feel good, and you are not confident when you press it. In many cases, you can't press it, and it is troublesome to use. Compared with other Xiaomi phones, it is a little less interesting.
In general, the appearance of Xiaomi 5c is very beautiful. As a mobile phone of more than 1000 yuan, its workmanship not only meets, but also exceeds the level of this price.
screen
Xiaomi 5c uses a 5.15-inch 1080p IPS display screen, which is just right in size. The most commendable thing is the oil resistance of this screen. It will not leave fingerprints as long as it touches the fingers, as some screens do. Although the reflectivity is slightly high, it is difficult to see the displayed content clearly in the highlighted light environment, but thanks to the high brightness, This does not happen very often.
After testing with professional instruments, the maximum brightness of Xiaomi 5c is 618 nits, and the standard mode color temperature is 7543K（ There are three kinds of stepwise adjustment of the screen, the warm color adjustment temperature is 6500K, the cold color adjustment temperature is 8500K, and the deltaE is the most accurate in the standard mode ）The contrast is 1380:1, the average deltaE 2.6, and the sRGB color gamut is 99.6%. It can be seen that the screen quality of this machine is very high, the brightness is high, the color accuracy is high, and so on. Not only is the data beautiful, but from the actual viewing experience, the Xiaomi 5c can also meet my needs.
performance
It can be said that the surging S1 processor in the Xiaomi 5c is the top priority. It has an eight core 64 bit A53 architecture, a 2.2GHz+1.4GHz main frequency, a four core Mali-T860 GPU, 3GB LPDDR3 memory and 64GB storage space. Unfortunately, it does not support microSD card expansion. From the score data, the CPU is still a little worse than the processors of the same price, but this is the first time after all, so it's understandable. Also, the 28nm process is a little backward today. In contrast, the surging S1 has no advantage. The only good thing is that thanks to the four core Mali-T860, the surging S1 still beats competitors at the same price in terms of graphics performance.
From the practical experience, the system application and lightweight app run without too big a problem. Of course, there will be some problems when playing NBA. In addition, if you open too many applications, the 3GB memory will be a little hard, which will lead to a problem when switching apps. The 5c is generally suitable for light users, and does not pay too much attention to performance.
Endurance&Charging
The Xiaomi 5c is equipped with a battery with a capacity of 2860 mAh. Although it is not very big at present, today's mobile phones are often 3000+mAh, so the first impression may be that the 5c is not very big, but it doesn't matter. The 5.15-inch 1080p screen, coupled with a not very powerful processor, does not perform badly in terms of endurance, and it is standard, After games, 4G/WiFi Internet access and video playback, the remaining power 72% In fact, it is enough to use, not to mention the bonus of fast charging.
The power of the built-in charging head is 9V 2A, which adopts the QC 2.0 standard. The maximum power is 18W. After the 5c is plugged into the charger, it is basically 17W. When you light up the screen, its power will soar to about 19W. The author conducts a charging test when there is still 16% of the battery left in the mobile phone. It takes 70 minutes to fully charge, which may be because it has been tested before Glory Magic Because of the violent fast charging, I feel that these mobile phones are not very fast recently, and the charging speed of Xiaomi 5c is also at a normal level, neither fast nor slow.
photograph
Xiaomi 5c is equipped with a 12 million pixel camera. The sensor model is OV12870, f/2.2 aperture, 1.25 μ m unit pixel area, dual ISP, supports phase focusing and is known as the Eye of the Dark Night, but does not support optical anti shake. The camera interface is still familiar with Xiaomi style.
At the press conference, this camera was also taken out for a long time, and I felt that there were many highlights. Although there was PDAF, the 5c focusing speed was not fast enough. When switching objects, the focusing speed was always a bit behind. Secondly, the imaging speed also needed to be improved. Every time the shutter was pressed, there would be a waiting time of a few tenths of a second, and the photos would appear in the preview box.
Daytime samples generally perform well, with rich details, and are very suitable for sending friends. The main weaknesses are concentrated in night samples. The shutter speed is too low under low light conditions, and there is no optical anti shake. At this time, it is easy to cause hand shake. In addition, the lack of focusing speed and imaging speed makes it difficult to take satisfactory photos,
summary
As the first Xiaomi mobile phone equipped with a self-developed processor, the role played by Xiaomi 5c can be said to be crucial. Throughout history, the first products to taste are not perfect, such as the first generation iPhone, the first generation Android phone, etc, The same is true for 5c and its surging S1. So in the summary part, even though its daily use is not perfect, I will not give 5c too much criticism, because I know that everything is difficult at the beginning.
In fact, the future pineapple processors and the machines equipped with them are the highlights, because after accumulating enough experience, Xiaomi can come up with a real flagship product. Maybe the future Xiaomi 7, Xiaomi 8, etc. will use self-developed processors, just like Huawei, and at that time, it will be exciting.
