Hot and cold knowledge: 40% of the time in a mobile phone's life is spent playing videos.
Although our literary youth on Shenzhen Bay One do not want to admit it, video has indeed defeated pictures and texts and captured all mankind. In 2021, video applications will account for 40% of the use time of mobile phones, so Coolpad COOL 20 Pro, the second product of Coolpad returning to the domestic market, has chosen the audio and video direction.

Appearance: coquettish color matching+environmental protection packaging
Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is the first mobile phone with environmental design in the thousand yuan range. It operates like Xiaomi 11, and is divided into the environmental version without charging head and the non environmental version with charging head. Generally, when purchasing online, the charging head will be added at the same price. For offline purchase, the charging head should appear as a gift. Good guy, accurately grasp offline user psychology.
Unlike Xiaomi11, the package of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro has a charging cable. The back of the product card is the warranty card, which is environmentally friendly. In addition, Coolpad COOL 20 Pro may also be the first mobile phone that comes out of the factory with a mobile phone case, and a small paper box will be environmentally-friendly, Surprise！
Cool 20 Pro ↑ in Secret Sea Blue
Coolpad COOL 20 Pro has five color combinations of black/white/blue/orange/starry sky. The "first sunny snow" is white with gold powder reflection, the "secret sea blue" back cover has concentric circles of similar fabrics, and the "Dunhuang gold" is a rare and difficult to control orange (lithography flow texture technology). The "Star Special Edition", as the name implies, the blue black AG glass in the light, the middle area will show the "Milky Way" with the blinking, which is also an extremely rare and provocative design.
Coolpad COOL 20 Pro should be the second mobile phone with the Hongruan logo, and the first one is Coolpad COOL 20. Straight edge design, but the middle frame actually has an arc, which is even too large for the phone to stand on the table.
YYDS AG glass, there is no cheap gasket between the back cover and the middle frame, and the Baby Skin technology is exquisite, comfortable and textured.
The upper and lower frames of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro have axisymmetric dual speaker openings, the largest dual 1318 speakers in service, and an extremely advanced 3.5mm headphone port is reserved at the bottom.
Maybe because the speaker is too large, the sim card slot of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is moved to the lower side of the left frame, and the size of the card slot is smaller than most flagship computers.
Workmanship: The keys have very small gaps and gaps, which is more compact than the new Redmi in the nearby price segment. Except that the connection between the screen washer and the middle frame is not very good, and the bright edges are easily scratched, the workmanship is beyond expectations.
feel: The screen edge washer is high and the edge radian is small, which is the main touch button item. The transition and radian of the middle frame belt are not bad. The core bonus item is the back cover. The AG glass is higher than the middle frame, and the edge has a 2.5D radian, which is much more comfortable than the back cover of the iPhone.
Fingerprint/face recognition: The identification speed of the side fingerprint is actually close to that of Sony, but the engineering machine is slow to light up the screen. I hope that OTA will take place as soon as possible. Face recognition speed is normal.
Vibration: Rotor motor.
1318 dual speakers: dry!
Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is one of the few thousand yuan mobile phones that choose external audio as a selling point, and it should also be the first thousand yuan "music mobile phone" in recent years.
The Coolpad COOL 20 Pro has 1318 speakers at the top and bottom, and the upper and lower frames have large openings. The "1318" of the speaker represents the length and width, which means that there are two 1.3cm x 1.8cm speakers in the body of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro.
What is this concept? In the nearby price segment, the Redmi Note 11 Pro with good external display uses 1115 speakers, and the unit vibration area of 1318 dual speakers is 40% larger than that of 1115 speakers. The commonly recognized "music phone" Xiaomi 10 Pro/Xiaomi 10S, their speakers are "just" 1216 specifications, which is an exaggeration.
The direct effect of 1318 double rising is the external volume of Xiongba. With only one mobile phone, you can become the most beautiful person in the square.
A uniform distance of 10cm was used to play the ancestral test song "We Are All Forgotten". The maximum volume of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro was 93.2 decibels, which was equal to Xiaomi 11 of Harman Katon's double lift, higher than 91.8 decibels of Xiaomi 10 Ultra, and lower than 94.1 decibels of Xiaomi 10 Pro.
Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is equipped with Dirac sound effect. When it is opened, the sound field will become larger. In addition, the phone has its own Coolpad AV mode, which includes four tuning modes: "video, games, music, and listening to books". The video app is to enhance the stereo surround sound, the game app is to highlight the game sound effect, the music app is to enhance the fidelity and virtual bass, and the listening app is to highlight the voice of AGC automatic gain control (don't misunderstand, it is not ACG animation, AGC is automatic gain control).
Open video APP such as Station B, Tiaoyin Family Bucket, Tencent Video, and Fasthand, and there will be video mode prompt ↑
When the games such as "Peace Elite" and "King Glory" are started, there will also be a prompt for opening the video mode ↑
But the most interesting thing is the "psychological virtual bass" effect produced by adding high-frequency harmonics with Fourier transform.
Let's welcome Aunt Cai Qin, the speaker of flowing water, and the iron hit Ferry. With the sound field opened by Dirac sound effect, the separation of left and right channels can clearly distinguish the drum/guitar position conversion of "Ferry" and "Hotel California". Listening to "One Last Kiss", you can also hear English and Japanese mixed singing in different channels. Human voice songs such as "We Are Forgotten" and "Praise" are also good.
But the most special thing is the virtual low frequency, which makes the original low frequency drum sound obviously float. The "psychological virtual low frequency" creates another sense of "low frequency", which is as unreal as real, and has a very recognizable sense of hearing. In the "Daughter of Dabancheng" with eight eyes and four male voices, the bass part seems to float up, which is very magical. The guitar sound of Scarborough Fair makes Scarborough Fair feel ethereal. In Mahler's symphony bucket, even the golden hall in Vienna has another taste.
The sound tuning of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro, like its screen, is not for absolute restoration, but for absolute pleasing to the eye/ear. The physical sound quality is not as good as the flagship music phone, but it is hard to compete at the 1000 yuan level.
In addition, after the volume exceeds 70%, the "sound wave" causes body resonance, which is not felt by the earphone. Put YYDS outside!! Just like in a racing game, the huge volume and virtual low-frequency will make you feel as if you are in the car, holding the steering wheel of the race track version of Ferrari LaFerrari, and the roar of the V12 engine penetrates your soul. When you listen with normal earphones, you will only feel a bang. If it is asymmetric double lift, you may feel that this Rafah is genuine only on the right side. The bad single lift is like a fake 3-cylinder Rafah, and the exhaust pipe is blocked.
System: very fresh settings
Negative screen, desktop, multi task interface
Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is equipped with the new COOLOS 2.0 system. Its distinctive feature is simplicity, which is even more concise than the hydrogen OS that died in 2020. Most of the setting pages will not exceed one page, and there is no need to scroll additional pages. The system retains the necessary functions of domestic ROMs such as notification bar flow display and call recording, and also has popular memory expansion.
Double click the power key to leave the payment code, offline users may be more useful ↑
Store, Calendar, Weather
The function of the system application is restrained, the UI button boundary is clear, there is a large size of minimalist weather (ink weather cooperation model), and the font is very striking calendar (Chinese perpetual calendar cooperation model). The whole system, except for the negative screen and browser, has no advertising, which is cleaner than most domestic ROMs.
The most unexpected thing is that COOLOS 2.0 makes the notice folding function of the notice bar into a "message box" and integrates it into the browser, which is deeply integrated with information/short video. As a 10 year old geek, I am so stupid that I can still play like this?
Whether on the desktop, in the browser, or in the message box, you can quickly switch between information and short videos at any time, and never miss the opportunity to brush videos and articles. Time is a master.
For third-party APPs such as Toutiao, Tiao Yin, Baidu, Taobao, etc., notification push will be folded in the "message box" by default, making Coolpad COOL 20 Pro the cleanest domestic mobile phone in the notification bar when it leaves the factory.
The system's own "anti telecom fraud" insurance
When installing APK in a third-party store/file manager, there will be two pop-up reminders ↑
The same fresh "good civilization" is the "account insurance" provided by Coolpad COOL 20 Pro, which has its own anti telecom fraud insurance. If Coolpad is defrauded by telecom in security mode, it will be compensated up to 50000 yuan once a case is filed.
In order to improve the safety level, In order to prevent the anti fraud insurance from paying ， COOLOS 2.0 is probably the Android system with the strictest application security management. When installing an application in a third-party store/file manager, there will be two 5 second countdown reminders (MIUI calls the expert directly). If it is a popular application such as Toutiao, Tiao Yin, Station B, UC, etc., it will be forced to jump to the official app store for installation, or even cannot install the old version of APK, let alone the self modified installation package. Although it is unfriendly to computer users, it has greatly reduced the security risks of a large number of hooligans and Trojan APK.
Setup Page
What surprised us most was the memory optimization of the COOLOS 2.0 system. Although the system is very compact and has the EROFS file system (Huawei claimed to improve random read performance by 20% and save storage space), it still breaks our impression of an Android machine with 6GB of memory.
We have this 6GB entry version with 3GB memory integration. We can open and log in to King Glory and Peace Elite, and then open NetEase Cloud, Station B, Weibo, Tiao Yin and Ku'an, and then switch back to the game. Although the switchover has obviously stuck, it didn't kill the backstage. I'm dumbfounded.
As a new system, it is certainly not perfect. For example, the function is too simple, the power percentage will not be displayed after the notification bar is pulled down, and there is no long screenshot. All these need to be updated later, but this is really a very new system.
COOLOS 2.0 system has rice like notice bar, application management page and reminder pop-up window. It uses MIUI operation logic, but has no familiar stutters and bugs, and even has a bit of native system like lightness. Fate is wonderful.
Screen: LCD is never slave!
Cool 20 Pro pixel arrangement, standard RGB arrangement, no stroboscopic ↑
Touch sampling rate test ↑
106nit, close movie color gamut, sRGB color standard ↑

Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is a 6.58 inch 120Hz water drop LCD screen, 2408x1080, Yili touch IC, and the overall frequency is 180Hz. Noble LCD, non PWM dimming, no strobe. Standard RGB arrangement, ppi is not discounted, comfortable! LCD will never be a slave!
The full white and local maximum brightness is 476nit. At this time, the four corner brightness is 431, 427, 445, 438nit respectively. The brightness and uniformity are normal LCD screen levels in this price range, and can no longer win the mainstream OLED. 106nit, the contrast is 1664:1, which is better than the normal LCD screen.
The Coolpad COOL 20 Pro has a movie level color gamut switch. The color temperature before and after the switch is around 9150K, which is obviously cold. After the movie level gamut is turned on, it covers 98.9% of the DCI-P3 gamut. The average gray scale deviates from 6.2, and the gamma value is 2.01, which is lower than the standard value of 2.2. The dark part has a slightly brightening effect.
Open the movie color gamut. Under the P3 color gamut, the average color deviation is 4.9, and the maximum is 11.6; Under sRGB color gamut, the average color deviation is 6.3, and the maximum is 10.9. After closing the movie color gamut, the color accuracy performance slightly improved. Under the P3 color gamut, the average color deviation was 4.4, with a maximum of 10.2; Under sRGB color gamut, the average color deviation is 5.5, and the maximum is 9.2.
No matter which mode, Coolpad COOL 20 Pro's color accuracy performance is quite wild, and the overall hair color is very bright, which is a typical eye pleasing setting. The lower gamma value and higher contrast than conventional LCDs make the screen of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro more transparent and pleasing to the naked eye than most LCDs of 2000 yuan.
Camera: still has a soft logo
For the photo taking part, Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is 50 million pixels, 0.64 μ m, 1.28 μ m after 4in1, 1/2.76 inch, F1.8 aperture. The secondary camera is 800W landscape (F2.0)+200W macro, and the front is also 8 million pixels, F2.0。
In the camera, the scenery lens has a separate button (the second one on the right), and the ultra wide camera can also do 2x zoom. Are you surprised? Are you surprised?

The COOL 20 released by Coolpad at the beginning of the year may be the first mobile phone with the Hongruan logo, while the Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is the second. By the way, the people who like to use the iris algorithm most are vivo and Samsung.
Coolpad COOL 20 Pro has automatic HDR, but the trigger is not active. In extremely weak light, the film forming speed is also very fast, while the night scene mode requires 5 or 6 seconds to synthesize, but the improvement is not obvious, and it can be used in the full automatic mode. Maybe because it is the first batch of engineering machines, the performance of the scenery lens is relatively ordinary. However, Coolpad COOL 20 Pro is featured with the iris algorithm, which is totally different from the CMOS of this specification, reaching the normal level of the same price model.
summary
Coolpad has been out of the mainstream of the aircraft circle for a long time. If we use two words to summarize the impression of Coolpad COOL 20 Pro, it must be "fresh".
The most important large-scale 1318 double jack+special tuning system, with fraud prevention account insurance, and the "90 day replacement 2-year warranty" that has not been followed up by manufacturers, are highly homogeneous in the mobile phone market today, Cool 20 Pro is so special and rare.
Finally, I don't know whether Coolpad COOL 20 Pro can grab a piece of cake offline, but this is really a mobile phone that has been carefully optimized for the sinking market in terms of software and hardware, and it is also an interesting mobile phone.
