After all, Meitu only needs to do one thing well - self taking+Meitu, which is also the core competitiveness of Meitu.

Appearance and details

In terms of appearance design, Meitu T9 can be said to be the same line with Meitu series mobile phones. Although there are some adjustments in details, the overall appearance can still make people recognize the mobile phones produced by Meitu at a glance.

At the press conference of Meitu T9, Meitu launched Meiyan 3.0. Lv Yan, special effects design director of MTlab, said that through research, beauty has gradually transited from pure skin abrasion and snake face beauty to the direction of true nature, body beautification and personalized customization. Beauty 3.0 will focus on retaining the "non skin abrasion beauty" of the skin texture and reducing the traces of beauty.

Meitu T9 is also the first model equipped with a 3D profile of the face. It scans the face through AI to generate a 3D profile file. Then users can customize their own personalized beauty scheme for their own facial profile, and will use this record for targeted beauty in future self portraits.

In addition to beauty, Meitu T9 also carries a full body beauty camera based on human bone recognition technology. According to each special bone point, intelligent trimming is carried out according to the golden ratio, claiming that it will be more natural than simply lengthening legs.

It is rare that the front camera has optical anti shake. In addition to the eye-catching dual camera, two fill lights are also equipped on both sides of the forehead. Compared with the single flash, the double flash fill light effect is more uniform. The large earpiece has speakers, which together with the bottom speaker holes form a dual speaker system, and the AKM4376 independent Hi Fi chip is built in.

In terms of configuration, the machine adopts Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor, combined with 4GB+64GB or 6GB+128GB memory storage combination, built-in 3100mAh lithium battery, support up to 18W QC3.0 fast charge, USB Type-C interface.

The bottom of the body is a USB Type-C interface, and there are speaker openings on both sides, in which the call microphone is hidden. The Meitu T9 follows the trend of the times and removes the 3.5mm headphone jack.

The middle part of the left side of the fuselage is the volume button. The frame and back cover are designed as a whole, with a certain arc design, which fits the palm.

The top of the right side of the fuselage is a SIM card slot, which supports dual cards and dual standby. In the middle is the power button, which is also a common layout strategy. Near the bottom is a special button for taking photos, which is also a user-friendly design to make it easier for users to take photos when holding the phone in their right hand.

Screen appearance and quality

The machine is equipped with a 6.01-inch Samsung AMOLED screen with a ratio of 18:9 and a resolution of 2160 * 1080. Different from various popular full screen models, Metu still maintains its iconic shape, and the iconic oversize camera on its forehead is still the main character.

Score, performance and game experience

In terms of configuration, Meitu used to use MediaTek's SoC. Although there was no problem in taking selfies, the game performance was not good. Many girls took selfies with Meitu's mobile phones, but chose other mobile phones as the main players. This time, Meitu T9 chose a Qualcomm processor. With Snapdragon 660, Meitu can finally show its strength in the game.

Graphics Performance

Storage performance

In terms of performance, the Midu T9 still reaches the normal level of the Snapdragon 660 model. Whether in terms of processor, graphics performance or storage, it is at the same level as the model with the same configuration. There is no need to worry about performance.

King glory demonstration

Although it is not said how strong the performance of the Snapdragon 660 is, compared with the MediaTek processor that has been used by Meitu before, the performance is relatively guaranteed. Several models have verified that the Snapdragon 660 is a stable and easy-to-use midrange processor. If properly optimized, games such as King Glory and Stimulating Battlefield can run smoothly. Metu T9 has built-in MTclean4.0 anti-aging technology and MTgame2.0 game optimization application. It cooperates with Tencent officials to optimize the fluency of King Glory, claiming that the fluency will be improved by 20% and the stability of high frame rate will be improved by 25.5%. Targeted multi-core and multi-threaded optimization, which is also one of the important reasons why Metu T9 is very stable in the glory of the king.

Photography and imaging

The camera configuration of Meitu T9 can be said to be unambiguous. Both front and rear cameras are dual cameras, and the main camera is equipped with optical anti shake IMX36312 million pixels; The sub pictures are all 4E85 million pixels of Samsung. The rear camera is equipped with a huge two-color ring flash lamp, and the front camera is equipped with two intelligent fill lights. I have tried my best to take a selfie.

In terms of post proof, thanks to Sony's IMX363 and optical anti shake, the performance of the proof also reached the average level of sensors of this level. Needless to say during the day, the availability at night is OK, but the noise control is general. Users who are worried about noise can try the built-in night camera APP of Meitu T9. After logging in, the photos taken will be uploaded to the cloud for noise processing using AI. However, the photographing experience still needs to be improved. Some functions are not designed intuitively enough, such as backlight/HDR mode, which can only be opened by entering the design menu. HDR's shooting speed is also too long. But overall, the rear camera has made considerable progress compared with the previous generation of products.

It is worth mentioning that Meitu's rear camera has almost the same function as the front camera, which means that it has a complete beauty function and can provide the same beauty effect as the front camera. In addition, the rear camera also needs to take full body or half body photos in many scenes, so it also adds full body beauty, which can adjust the proportion of long legs, slimming, head, etc., which can be said to have carried out the beautiful picture to the end, but to a certain extent, it also shows that compared with landscape photos, the camera of Meitu T9 is more tuned for portrait shooting.

Next, we will focus on taking selfies. Although Meitu has also added beauty and leg beautification functions to the rear camera, it is believed that many Meitu users still focus on taking selfies, so this part is the focus of our test.

The new version of the beauty camera can only be described as breathtaking in terms of functionality. The beauty, thin face, cheekbones, chin, big eyes, nose, everything can be adjusted by the user.

Users can also enter their own facial contour information, and then customize the beauty according to their own needs. In the future, the camera will automatically call the preset when taking a selfie, so there is no need to make tedious adjustments every time.

Now let's take a look at the comparison of the self timer samples with other models. We selected the Samsung S9 Plus and iPhone X for comparison. The former has the beauty function, while the latter's self timer is still the true style of the iPhone.

From left to right, there are Meitu T9, Samsung S9 Plus and iPhone X. It is said that only when there is contrast, there is harm. You can compare them one by one. Yes, if the iPhone records the true state, Samsung is the beautified version, and Meitu is the super beautified version. Everyone has a love of beauty. Who wouldn't like such a beautiful self portrait?

Endurance&Charging

In terms of batteries, the Meitu T9 has a built-in 3100mAh lithium battery. Compared with the size of the body, the capacity is slightly small, but fortunately it supports 18w QC3.0 fast charging. In the endurance test, we continue to use the two-hour high-intensity endurance test, that is, half an hour WiFi Internet access, half an hour 4G Internet access, half an hour video and half an hour game test.

After two hours of endurance test, the remaining power of Meitu T9 is 79%, which is normal performance, basically at the same level as the products of the same level, and the endurance level is better than expected.

System&Experience

In terms of system, MEIOS 4.3 operating system is installed in the factory and customized based on Android 8.1.

The UI has been greatly adjusted, but the overall style is still the usual style of Meitu. Most of the application icons have been adapted or forced to be cut, such as WeChat and QQ. The style is relatively uniform and won't kill obsessive-compulsive disorder.

As a domestic transformation system, there are still corresponding strategies in dealing with rogue applications, such as application permission management and self startup management. In the domestic Android application ecosystem, these precautions really have to be done.

As a mobile phone produced by Meitu, Meitu T9 is pre installed with a lot of beauty related applications. Meitu Xiuxiu, Meipai, light effect camera, night view camera, beauty camera, beauty camera, fashion self timer, Meitu beauty camera, etc., which can be said to spare no effort to achieve the ultimate beauty. In addition, it also launched a traffic free mapping service with unlimited number of images, and launched iOS client to meet the needs of dual users.

summary

As the beauty upgrade of Meitu mobile phone in 2018, Meitu mobile phone T9 has greatly upgraded its beauty and body, especially the "targeted" beauty that can be modeled according to the facial contour. Users can adjust one by one according to their face shape and beauty preferences, and everything can be "customized" in terms of muscle beauty, thin face, cheekbones, chin, big eyes and nose In terms of beauty effect, it is no exaggeration to say that if T9 calls itself second, no one dares to call itself first.

In addition to being the most powerful beauty camera in the history of Meitu, Meitu T9 has also made some improvements in other aspects, such as the SoC. After many years, it finally used Qualcomm. Although the Snapdragon 660 is slightly weaker than the same price model (T9 64GB version 3399 yuan, 128GB version 4199), as a classic mid tier SoC, the performance of the Snapdragon 660 has been seen by all. On the whole, the nut T9 is a model with distinctive features and outstanding advantages, but there are no obvious shortcomings. For girls who like taking selfies, it is still the first choice without hesitation.
