If you see the engine oil of the press conference, it is estimated that the most heard words in the whole press conference are "customization", customized water drop module, customized Samsung GM1 MOD version, customized black and white photography, customized rear finger print recognition.

appearance
When I first saw the appearance of Meizu Note9, I was still slightly disappointed because I felt that the design of Meizu Note9 was really similar to that of Hongmi Note7. The back side was vertically double shot, the camera was convex, the flash was below the camera, and the back side was in the middle of fingerprint identification, which was really not very bright. Officially, the fingerprint identification area is customized, which is one circle smaller than the general post fingerprint identification. The actual unlocking speed is OK, and it was pressed 16 times in total when inputting fingerprints.
However, after actually using it, I found that there are still some differences. The first and most obvious thing is the weight. The weight of 169.7g is much lighter than the 186g of red rice Note7. In addition, the back cover of Meizu Note9 has a radian, which is more suitable for the palm of the hand and feels more comfortable. Although the official claims that the back cover uses the "high gloss porcelain stack process", But straight white dots are plastic to the touch, and the phantom black version on our hands is very easy to get fingerprints. More to say, there is no protective shell in the packaging box.
The body connectors are assembled at the bottom of the body, speakers, USB Type-C connectors, microphones, and 3.5mm headphone holes.
The body key is on the right side of the phone, the volume key and power key are on the left, and the card slot is on the left. Dual nano SIM cards are supported, and dual cards are available for full network access. Memory card expansion is not supported.
The front is a 6.2 inch LCD customized water drop screen with a resolution of 2244 * 1080403PPI, accounting for 89.23%.
The hidden earpiece design is adopted, and the actual call sound is good. There is no major problem. There is an LED indicator on the left of the earpiece, which will flash when charging and notification.
screen
Meizu Note9's screen has no other mode to choose, and only the screen color temperature can be adjusted.
Color temperature 7563K
P3 color gamut covers 82.1%, average color deviation 5.8, maximum color deviation 9.9
SRGB color gamut covers 99.5%, the average color deviation is 3.8, and the maximum color deviation is 7.7
after Love to play computer games As measured, Meizu Note9's screen uses a Truly panel, driven by Himax, with a manual maximum brightness of 400nit. The touch delay is a bit obvious. In general, the performance of this screen is in order, and there will be no major problems in daily use. In addition, the LCD screen should cause a lot of trouble in the heart of "LCD will never be a slave party".
performance
Meizu Note9 launched Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 for the first time in China. Snapdragon 675 is a mid-range chip launched by Qualcomm in October 2018, with an 11nm process technology, Qualcomm's new fourth generation Kryo 460 architecture, eight core design, "two A76 cores, main frequency 2.0GHz+six A55 cores, main frequency 1.7GHz", and the GPU is Adreno 612.
CPU
The comparison models are: Xiaomi 9 (Snapdragon 855), Huawei Mate20Pro (Kirin 980), One Plus 6T (Snapdragon 845), Xiaomi 8 SE (Snapdragon 710), and Hongmi Note7 (Snapdragon 660 full blood version).
It can be seen that the Geekbench 4 of Meizu note9 easily surpasses the Snapdragon 660 and 710 in its single core performance, and even surpasses the Snapdragon 845. It can be seen that the performance of the Snapdragon 675 can not be underestimated this time, but it is left behind by the Snapdragon 845 in its multi-core performance, which is equal to the Snapdragon 660.
GPU
Meizu Note9's GPU is Adreno 612, which is lower than Xiaomi 8SE (Adreno 616) in the GFXBench run. Meizu Note9 and Hongmi Note7 (Adreno 512) are competing.
Memory
Flash Memory
It should be noted that the file system of Meizu Note9 uses f2fs.
Game measurement
Meizu Note9's game performance is commendable. Although the GPU is slightly weak, it is optimized by Meizu's "Hyper Gaming", so there is no problem in dealing with current mainstream games.
fever
After running for 15 minutes to stimulate the battlefield, the maximum temperature of the front of the fuselage is 42.7 °, and the maximum temperature of the back is 43.3 °.
photograph
Main camera: Samsung GM1 MOD customized version (S5KGM1), 48 million pixels, aperture F1.7, 1.6 μ M unit pixel area, 1/2 inch sensor.
Black and white sub camera (S5K5E9), 5 megapixel, aperture F1.9, 1.12 μ M unit pixel area, 1/5-inch sensor.
Front lens (S5K3T1), 20 megapixel, aperture F2.0, 0.9 μ M unit pixel area, 1/3.1 sensor.
12 million vs. 48 million
The first impressions of the photos taken by 12 million and 48 million are very similar, with the same exposure, saturation and white balance.
After zooming in and comparing, there is no doubt that the resolution of the photos taken under the 48 million mode has improved, but it can be said that the text in the photos is also clearer than that of the 12 million model, and the lines of the buildings are also clearer. But if you do not compare carefully, it is really difficult to see any difference. If you take photos at ordinary times, It is recommended to shoot in the 12 million mode.

Both photos taken in the 12 million or 48 million modes are the same, and the appearance is also very similar. The difference is that the saturation of red rice Note7 is sometimes higher than that of Meizu Note9, and the white balance of red rice Note7 is often red. After zooming in and comparing, Meizu Note9 retains more details than red rice Note7, and red rice Note7 has obvious smearing marks, The purity is not as good as Meizu Note9. Meizu Note9 is also better at dark details and tolerance.
Nightscape
Meizu Note9 12 million vs. 48 million at night
Amplification contrast
In the night shooting environment, the performance of 12 million mode and 48 million mode is almost the same, and even 12 million photos will be clearer than 48 million photos. Because when 48 million photos are taken, the phone takes longer to process, and the hands will inevitably shake sometimes. In the night shooting environment, the phone should be as stable as possible to shoot clearly, otherwise it is easy to paste the film, Therefore, 48 million mode will not improve the ability of night scene shooting under night shooting.
Meizu Note9 ordinary 12 million mode vs. super night scene mode type
After the super night view mode is turned on, the photo quality has been greatly improved. The more obvious thing is that the photo looks more sharp and clear, the highlight area has not been exposed, the font of the billboard in the photo can also be seen clearly, and the overall brightness of the picture is more uniform.

(Enlarge and contrast)
In general, the super night view of Meizu Note9 is better than that of Hongmi Note7, mainly because the brightness of the picture is higher, the saturation is normal, the saturation of Hongmi Note7 is lower than the actual situation, the white balance is still red, and the highlight suppression is also better for Meizu Note9. In addition, Meizu Note9 uses a new generation of ISP250L, so when shooting super night scenes, the processing speed is a little faster than that of Hongmi Note7.
Stand mode
After the tripod mode is turned on, as the name implies, you must go to the tripod. If you hold the photo, you must paste it. The most obvious improvement of the photo taken in the tripod mode is that the picture is brighter, the dark details are clearer, and the tolerance of the photo is also improved. Although the brightness and highlight of the photo are well controlled, the sharpening is a little heavy, and the sense of smearing is also strong.
videotape
(Left: Meizu Note9 Right: Hongmi Note7)
Meizu Note9 has four resolutions to choose from in the video mode, but unfortunately there is no 1080P 60 frame, instead, there is a red rice Note7, but red rice Note7 does not have 4K.
Summary:
Meizu Note9, as a 1000 yuan machine, its photography is already very good. It is enough for daily photography. The 1/2 inch sensor+f1.7 aperture also makes it perform well at night.
Compared with Hongmi Note7, there is really no big gap between the two. After all, the foundation is the same. Therefore, compared with the GM1 on Hongmi Note7, the Samsung GM1 MOD version of Meizu Note9, a customized version, does not show much advantage, and both belong to the same horizontal line.
system
Meizu Note9 is equipped with Flyme7.2 based on Android 9. The UI interface is still Meizu's small and fresh style. The version we have is 6GB+64GB. In the past few days of use, there has not been any stuttering. The only thing to complain about is that there are too many advertisements. Although it can be turned off, it will still affect the user experience.
In terms of functionality, Flyme is still good. The navigation mode provides users with four modes to choose from, as well as SOS emergency rescue function. Among the laboratory functions, the more interesting is the night mode. After the system is turned on, it will automatically switch all interfaces to dark themes. It is not so dazzling when looking at mobile phones at night. The system applications are all adapted, like WeChat, These commonly used software like microblog are well adapted.
Meizu Note9 also supports face unlocking (2D face unlocking) in addition to fingerprint unlocking. According to the actual measurement, the face unlocking speed is very fast under sufficient light, and it can be unlocked normally when blocking the mouth, but not when blocking the eyes. In the dark environment, the recognition rate is relatively low. The recognition rate will improve after the screen fill light is turned on, but it is often blind, so I chose to turn it off. I usually open the double click screen to unlock the face.
After the game mode is turned on, each time the game is turned on, a panda shrinks to the inside of the screen. After clicking on it, you can see messages and notifications. During the game, if someone sends a message, there will be a small floating window for the first reminder, and the message content will fly past in the form of a pop-up screen. If you need to reply, you can reply in the small window.
Summary:
The overall use of Flyme7.2 is very satisfactory (the premise is to turn off advertising). There is no problem with the smoothness of the system. The software response speed and switching between various software are also very smooth. Flyme7.2's transition animation is also very comfortable. In general, Flyme7.2 is the first tier in the domestic UI.
Charging and endurance
The battery capacity of Meizu Note9 is 4000mAh, and the whole system is equipped with 18W mCharge fast charge as standard.
According to the two-hour endurance test of Iooki standard, the remaining power is 78%.
Charging time: use Meizu original charging head, start charging from 5%, half an hour to 46%, one hour to 70%, one and a half hours to 93%, and it takes two hours to fully charge.
