On April 6, the seventh generation of "Maverick" Z17mini was released, which not only surprised everyone in terms of product naming, but also in terms of product enhancement points. The Z17mini jumped from the previous generation Snapdragon 625 to the Snapdragon 653 in one breath with 6G memory, while the traditional photography part was changed to Sony's dual 13 million pixel dual photography scheme. We Love to play computer games Now let's take a look at the new machine:

Configuration and parameter comparison

Performance part, Z17mini Compared with the previous generation, the performance increases significantly, It is divided into high configuration and low configuration versions, the high configuration is Snapdragon 653+6G memory+64G storage, and the standard configuration version is Snapdragon 652+4G memory+64G storage. The former CPU is composed of 4 * 1.95GHz A72+4 * 1.44GHz A53 (652 dominant frequencies are 1.8 and 1.4GHz respectively), and the GPU part is 600MHz Adreno510. Snapdragon 653 is Qualcomm's strongest midrange product, with CPU performance close to Snapdragon 810.

And the dragon 653 OPPO R9s Plus (first release), vivo X9 Plus and It has appeared on the 360 mobile phone N5. The performance price ratio of Z17mini is between vivo/OPPO and 360. After the price of 1699 is found, the Z17mini is not superior to the old flagship like Xiaomi 5. However, in the tide of overall price rise in the industry, all midrange products are facing the attack of the old flagship, and the positioning is slightly awkward.

Z17mini follows the design language of Z11 miniS. The body contour and arc are relatively close, but no arc antenna is used. The camera is upgraded to double camera, providing elegant black, champagne gold, black gold and recently popular red (the official website is only black gold and gold for the time being).

Black and black gold are both "pure black", and the color depth is close to the frosted black version of iPhone. The biggest difference between them is that the logo and polished bright part of the latter have gold.

The anodized aluminum body adopts finer sanding particle size and has AF anti fingerprint coating, which makes the surface appearance and feel more exquisite than the previous generation. The anti fingerprint coating on the metal fuselage is more important because it is easy to clean, and even if it is contaminated with fingerprints, it can be easily wiped off. The red version uses a bright red color similar to that of the iPhone. The red color on the body of the anodized aluminum is really pleasing and exquisite.

The front of Z17mini is a 5.2 inch 1080P IPS screen, 2.5D glass, the sensor on the forehead is well hidden, the bottom is Nubia's landmark small red circle, and its two sides are the set and return keys (Nubia is one of the few manufacturers that still use the set button). In addition to the white front panel used in the gold version, the other three colors are black panels, which are much more pleasing to match with red than the red and white colors of the iPhone.

The top of the fuselage is a headphone connector and a noise reducing microphone, and the bottom is a symmetrically placed speaker and microphone opening, as well as a Type-C connector. The card slot on the left, volume and power buttons on the right are familiar layouts.

The back antenna partition strip is arranged around the dual camera and flash lamp, and the following is fingerprint identification and logo. The overall design of the machine is harmonious, especially the red version, which has a high face value.

In the system part, the engineering machine is equipped with Nubia UI V4.0 based on Android 6.0.1. The default theme of our red Z17mini is also red. The system style is more concise than the previous generation, Icons become more flattened, On the left side of the desktop is the shortcut entrance for various photo functions that Nubia is proud of,

In addition to the application avatar/red envelope assistant, it refers to screen capture/switching applications and screen splitting. These advanced functions are available. The edge touch function (edge sliding to switch applications, etc.) is inherited from the frameless flagship Z9 of the year, and only Nubia's system has this function for the time being.

For camera, Z17mini is equipped with two 13 million pixel Sony IMX258 sensors (color+black and white), a closed-loop motor and phase focusing support, while the front end is upgraded to 16 million pixels. The software part is the NeoVision6 Z17mini customized image engine, and three new cameras with functions of "black and white, three-dimensional, and time" have been added. What is more special is that both the new dual camera virtualization and the front video call have their own beauty function, which is expected to be more suitable for female users.

Here are some simple on-site samples (in the PC version of Iookie official website, click the picture to view the original picture):

NeoAir VR panoramic camera

Also released was Nubia's NeoAir VR panoramic camera, which costs 699 yuan, has dual 210 degree wide-angle lenses, weighs 26.5g, has a diameter of 38.5mm, and uses Type-C interface. Since the Type-C interface of almost all mobile phones is at the bottom, NeoAir, like similar products, reverses the view of mobile phones.

There is a VR module in the Z17mini camera, which can automatically prompt you to connect the VR camera when you open it. It supports real-time splicing effect preview. The shooting is smooth, better than expected.
