On July 12, the True Self GT2 Master Discovery Edition was released, Core selling point: simple violence: Snapdragon 8+, starting from 3499 yuan The top price is 3999 yuan.
The True Self GT2 Master Discovery Edition is the first Snapdragon 8+mobile phone of the European and Canadian (Greenfactory) series, and the second non game mobile phone equipped with Snapdragon 8+. LPDDR5x memory and Pixelworks X7 independent display chip are launched for the first time in the new machine, supporting the N28 5G band of radio and television/mobile.
But to be reasonable, the price of 12+256 version is 3999 yuan. This is a three gear mobile phone with a price difference of only 500 yuan.
appearance
The 100W GaN fast charging head of Genuine GT2 master exploration version, model VCBAJACH, has a maximum of 11V 9.1A=100.1W, and the current reaches an exaggerated 9.1A, which is beyond the range of common power testers (the actual peak value can reach 79W, rather than the 71W measured by most media).
The 1m long charging line is therefore upgraded to a robust 10A wire. The biggest regret is that it is still the explosion of the private agreement to change the A port, and only with the cooperation of the thread head can we do our best.

In terms of appearance, the most eye-catching feature of the True GT2 Master Discovery is the straight screen ultra narrow edge. Users who are familiar with the Green Factory are probably already impressed with this screen.
The side is 1.48mm, the chin is 2.37mm, and the "top" is 1.84mm. 94.2% of the screen is really no joke (2.42mm for iPhones with equal width on all sides).
In addition, looking back at the real GT2 Pro, it is narrow enough except for the "top" wide point.

The machine has three colors: hard box · wilderness (plain leather), Iceland (white) and Cangyan (dark green). This one is the most special hard box · wilderness version, The brief is: bold, extremely bold.
Pure leather+four corner metal rivets, and the camera matrix is glass, and even the mobile phone case has added many details accordingly, which is really intentional.
But to be reasonable, not everyone likes retro British style suitcases, so Personal opinion brief is: buy white or dark green. The glass back cover is simple and easy to take care of. The heat dissipation is good.
Texture and feel: The texture and workmanship are both good, and the middle frame in deep bronze color is also very beautiful. However, the plain leather version 195g, the glass version 199g, and the straight edge middle frame, do not expect too much from the opponent.
Short focus fingerprint: Low position, but fast speed.
Hidden pressure sensing shoulder key: The shoulder key is on the right border, which can be customized. There are single key and double key mapping (that is, you can map different operations while releasing and pressing). In common games such as eating chicken and primordial spirit, there are preset mappings that can be used directly.
The pressure sensing shoulder key suffers from poor response speed and blind operation. It is necessary to get familiar with the position, and the experience will definitely not win the physical shoulder key. However, the cost of the hidden scheme is small, which is not bad. It would be better if the system could open the daily function mapping of shoulder keys.
Dolby Panoramic Dual Speakers: The maximum volume has no broken sound, and the quality of the unit is average. Although Dolby Atmos and Hi Res double certification are available, the difference between the double raised volume and the high and low frequency characteristics is large, resulting in a rather ordinary sense of hearing.

Real GT2 Master Discovery Touch Sampling Rate ↑
BOE's 6.7 inch 120Hz 2412x1080 central drilling OLED, similar drill row, local peak 1000 nits, JNCD≈0.4。 The 5th generation gorilla glass, Pixelworks X7 independent display chip (can let the game insert frames from 30fps to 120fps), 360Hz touch sampling, and instantaneous 1000Hz.
The actual daily touch is 120Hz, and 360Hz in the game.
The appearance of this screen is OK. The brightness attenuation control at large angles is relatively good, and the average gray scale deviation control is also good. The peak brightness and color level are lower than those of the same door screen. The main reason is that the gamma values of the three display modes are all around 2.02 (the standard value is 2.2), which makes the dark part brighter and affects the color level performance.
The dimming mode is switched between 60% - 70% of the brightness bar. At this time, the brightness is about 150 nits. Developer Mode DC like dimming , not false DC, can be turned on with 120Hz.
The system is the realm UI 3.0 at the bottom of Android 12, which is just like ColorOS 12. The feature is still smooth and comfortable, but the backstage management is extremely strict In the new version, when adjusting the brightness slider, there will be comfortable vibration feedback. The health code on the negative screen and other life convenient functions are easy to use. The user oriented system and built-in applications have all been 64 bit, and others will not be discussed in detail.
5000mAh dual cell, 200 nit brightness, after 30 minutes of "Peace Elite" (HDR high-definition+limit frames+anti aliasing), 30 minutes of 1080P video playback on station B, 30 minutes of microblog short video, 30 minutes of Wi Fi and 5G surfing, a total of 2.5 hours of endurance test, The remaining power is 77%, and the performance is excellent.
The level of the vivo X80 is much better than that of the GT2 Pro and the 150W fast charging GT Neo3. LPDDR5x has its merits, but conservative CPU scheduling is indispensable.
The first 100W fast charge of the Genuine GT2 Master Discovery Edition of the Green Factory series reached an exaggerated current of 9.1A, exceeding the range of common power testers.
The current is stuck at 8.1A, which leads to the 71W peak measured by most media. In fact, the real GT2 master exploration version The peak value can reach 79W. It is far from 120W fast charging, but this is 5000mAh battery, and it seems that it can not require too much. The actual filling time is 30 minutes, which is consistent with the total time of green factory 80W+4500mAh.
Snapdragon 8+performance
The True GT2 Master Discovery Edition is the second non game mobile phone of Snapdragon 8+(the "first" is Xiaomi 12S/12S Pro/12S Ultra), which to some extent reveals the tuning style of Snapdragon 8+models after the Green Factory series in advance.
Genuine GT2 Master Quest, this dragon 8+, CPU scheduling is quite conservative, especially multi-core scheduling.
The GeekBench score is used to see the peak performance, while the daily performance can refer to the RAR test score. It is an unexpected tool without running score optimization. GeekBench 5.1, single core 1044 and multi-core 3572, who are also not in the white list.
In the RAR test, even in the GT mode (real game mode), the CPU is in the 2.4G+2.1G+1.8G half fishing state most of the time, and there is still much room for improvement.
indicating contrast The GPU is active in scheduling, and can bite the Red Devil 7S Pro In terms of flash memory, Random reading is good, but random writing is weak.
The super core can reach 3.2GHz under high load and some fat apps. However, if Zhonghe is not A710, this is the script of the former Snapdragon 870. In this generation, the Android flagship finally gets closer to Apple in terms of CPU performance, but the single baking power consumption of the CPU and GPU is 10W, so even if you switch to TSMC 4nm, the Snapdragon 8+will be a bit warm with medium and high load for a long time, but it is far better than the Snapdragon 888 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 models.
The first LPDDR5x memory release of True GT2 Master Discovery Edition, but Snapdragon 8+supports up to 6500Mbps LPDDR5 (Tianji 9000 supports 7500Mbps LPDDR5x memory), so the main purpose here is to reduce power consumption. Compared with LPDDR5, the official data of Zhenwo has reduced the comprehensive power consumption by 20%, long videos by 25%, and games by 30%. However, it is actually more due to Snapdragon 8+than memory.
Although the SoC energy efficiency is higher than that of Snapdragon 8 Gen 1's True Self GT2 Pro, the total heat dissipation area (37904mm ²) of the True Self GT2 Master Explorer is more than three times that of the original True Self GT Master Explorer (12387mm ²) of Snapdragon 870. The area of the dual VC soaking plate clamped with the motherboard reaches 4819mm ², which is closely followed by the K50 E-sports version and is obviously different from other normal models (in mm ²):
• Redmi K50 e-sports version, 4860 dual
• True GT2 Master Discovery Edition, 4811 dual pieces
• vivo X80,4285
• Real GT2 Pro/GT Neo3, One Plus Ace, 4129
• Redmi K50/K50 Pro,3950
• iQOO 9,3923
• One plus 10 Pro and Find X5 Pro, 3161
• vivo X80 Pro,2961
• Xiaomi 12 Pro, 2900
If something is wrong, the plain leather version wastes this cooling configuration. Unless we particularly like the design of the plain leather version, we have no idea to recommend the glass version.
True GT2 Master Discovery Although CPU scheduling is conservative, GT mode temperature control is extremely fierce Meizu nods straight.
In the 20 minute 3DMark Wild Life Extreme stability test, the front and back sides can break 50 degrees. The frame is hot, but the plain leather back cover still feels comfortable.
Fierce temperature control brings fierce 3DMark Wild Life stability. The brightness of 200 nites and the room temperature of 25 degrees, the stability of the True Self GT2 Master Exploration Edition in non extreme and extreme scenes (20 consecutive runs) is about 92%, far better than Xiaomi 12S Ultra.
True GT2 Master Discovery Edition The original spirit does not reduce the resolution. It is 720P rendering 。
200 nits, room temperature 24.8 degrees, 63% humidity, WiFi, High quality 60 frames, turn off dynamic blur, and go back and forth on the direct road of Liyue Port for 20 minutes.
Primordial temperature
The average frame rate of Real GT2 Master Discovery is 59 frames, the average power consumption of the whole machine is 4.97W, and the maximum temperature is 42.3 degrees, The performance far exceeded expectations and exceeded the vivo X80 of Tianji 9000 TSMC Powerful! You know, we still have a plain skin debuff (although our X80 is also).
Because the air conditioner is turned on violently, the test environment temperature is low, and the really conservative CPU scheduling, this Snapdragon 8+still has spare power. The average CPU utilization rate is only about 64%. It seems that the test temperature will have to be increased in the future.
In addition, it is hoped that the later scheduling can release the CPU. Although the average frame rate of the Android platform has gone up, the accidental stuttering caused by sudden loading is still very obvious.
Photographing: Inspirational algorithm improvement
True GT2 Master Discovery Camera Log Information ↑
Except that the aperture of ultra wide angle is reduced from F2.2 to F2.4, the camera hardware of the True Self GT2 Master Discovery Edition basically reproduces the True Self GT2 Pr: the IMX766 with OIS is equipped with a 150 degree ultra wide angle of 5000W JN1, plus the unique microscope macro.
Originally, the same factory was close to the camera, but the camera hardware was not comparable. But this time, the algorithm was changed, It's a very special sample, so I specially compare it in detail.

The multi frame synthesis of the True Self GT2 Master Discovery is much more active than that of the True Self GT2 Pro, especially the super wide angle. Now the night view mode is to press the shutter to display the countdown immediately, which is more natural than the GT2 Pro that delays the countdown display.
The dark part of the True Self GT2 Master Exploration Edition is pressed harder, and the black part is darker. The metaphysical point is that the tone is more like Find X5 Pro. The highlight suppression has made great progress, reaching the top flagship level, and the nightscape details and noise reduction have been improved to a certain extent.
On the ultra wide angle side, the effect of reducing the aperture from F2.2 to F2.4 is obvious. The noise control and details of non weak light scenes are not as good as those of GT2 Pro, and the white balance is unstable. But also because of the improvement of night scene algorithm, it is stronger than GT2 Pro in dark light.
For the rest, even the 8-in-1 2x zoom and AI 50 megapixel mode, the performance of the True GT2 Master Explorer is slightly better than that of the GT2 Pro. I would like to call the True Self GT2 Master Discovery Edition "The Best Photography of True Self".
summary
In addition to the screen, the True Self GT2 Master Discovery Edition has made small improvements in photography and charging. The Xiaolong 8+with 4nm on TSMC can be regarded as inspirational, with stronger performance and lower power consumption. Qualcomm! Arm! Do you know how we have come over these two years? The rest are like heat dissipation and pressure sensing shoulder keys, which are considered as gifts for mobile game players.
The top configuration of the True Self GT2 Master Discovery Edition is the same price as the Xiaomi 12S Beggar Edition. The difference between the entry version and the high configuration is 500 yuan, 700 yuan, and 1200 yuan less than the Xiaomi 12S Pro.
Sense told me that the music screen, 120W fast charge and IMX707 cost a lot, but I was changed by 3499 after all.
