Nokia 6 second generation evaluation | do not fight stunt / experience first

Time flies, Nokia's return as HMD As if it was something that happened yesterday, the blink of an eye came in 2018, HMD spent its 1st birthday, released last year, Nokia 6 also ushered in his sequel - Well, the name of the new machine is very simple and rude, called 'Nokia 6 second generation', the model is TA-1054.

If you are a noctillo, you should still remember last year Nokia 6 to Nokia's iconic Founder styling that moment; the design trend of the mobile phone industry this year is the use of glossy materials, to box design, the pursuit of 'pebbles Look & Feel '. By the way, there are two phones refusing to follow the trend in the first half of 2017, one is the Nokia 6 and the other is a hammer nut Nut Pro.

Nuts Pro

However, in the 'paint-cut + cut hands' became the reason behind the scolding of the latter, Lao Luo re-development conference the second half of the year, with a 'walking rivers and lakes by the steady' grass with grass, the new nut Pro 2 On the curved box, curved glass and rounded rectangular screen, no longer dared to toss what little move against the trend.

The courage of the HMD is commendable; the old Luo, who has long been known as 'paranoid' and 'perfectionist', has been defeating himself, seeing in 2018 what no angular phone will ever be available - at this time, Nokia 6 The second generation turned out to be born, it not only in the industrial design continues a generation of square features, and even the details of the fuselage, deliberately emphasized the characteristics of this design.

This time I experienced the second generation of Nokia 6 is a black version of today in the popular color design, it certainly does not appear in the form of pure black; so HMD for its all-metal body joined a number of anodized Colored CNC high-light trimmed embellishment, their color is exactly the same with the Nut Pro dark red, a 'Nokia 6 second-generation fine red line' was born, you do not say, really good looking The whole body is made of matte sand blasting technology, these are around the middle frame, camera and fingerprint recognition module hole 'will shine' red thin line, so that the entire cell phone at once has a noble and Not assertive temperament.

As before, the second generation of Nokia 6 also features a full-wrapped metal mid-frame with a very sharp 2.5D glass on the front of the fuselage - you can even call it a 3D curved glass - suspended above the metal case , With no exposed plastic cladding between the glass and the metal for a brilliant suspension screen design that actually goes back to the Lumia era when many of WP handsets in Nokia had a micro-arc glass cover suspended Body shell shape, to be bright body color, high degree of recognition.

The second generation of Nokia 6 running Android 8.0 system, HMD in the system update has also been outdone.As with other Android models HMD, Nokia 6 second-generation system environment is quite pure, pre-installed third-party APP only Alipay Weibo and WeChat, just unbelievable.

The second generation of Nokia 6 made rapid improvements to the 'low-level errors' of the first generation of products in the app store. Although the app integrates with the contents of Tencent App Store, the HMD sets it to be the system default app install source And then need to manually set the user; background silent installation APP, the application store will automatically delete the downloaded installation package to avoid waste of storage space.

Full screen era, HMD Nokia 6 is not the second generation into a full screen with a 18: 9 phone, which has a 5.5-inch 1080P screen, the panel is made of IPS material. This classic screen specification believe I do not need to Explained more; show performance, I have experienced this second generation of Nokia 6 have a slight colder phenomenon, because the HMD does not provide any color scheme preset or manual adjustment settings, had to accept it silently; it is worth Tucao Is that a generation of Nokia 6 is a color scheme and color temperature adjustment function ...

Although not equipped with a full screen, HMD is very smart for the second generation of Nokia 6 introduced a large number of domestic full-screen mobile phone screen to enhance the available area of ​​the 'full screen gestures' - to put it plainly, that is, the bottom of the virtual navigation screen Column canceled to the bottom of the screen sliding gesture operation.In order to meet the needs of different users, HMD in the settings item provides a virtual key / gesture optional functions, but also allows users to swap back and back key Position, and at the same time applied to the virtual keys and gesture operations.

UI design from the operating system point of view, Nokia 6 is still followed by the second generation of Google's norms, set the interface, sliding applications, drawers, lock screen interface is completely Pixel 2 version; And before the difference is that the new system icon weight Painted by the Material Design style into a flat color, the new negative screen integration is also all in the form of a flat card, but even so, we still hope more Nokia elements will appear in the HMD's system interface.

Camera, Nokia 6 second-generation rear camera with 16 million pixel sensor and F / 2.0 aperture lens, thousands of dollars in the machine is a good specification.For the front camera, 800-megapixel sensor with F / 2.0 Aperture lens, self-made circle of friends is enough. Nokia 6 second generation in the self-timer also added to automatically recognize the portrait and make bokeh, I personally show you to look at the second generation of Nokia 6 background Virtual contrast before and after the opening of the contrast it.

Left: no background blurring right: turning the bokeh on

People look spicy eyes, but the effect of the phone is still possible, around the cutout of the face is not empty-handed, proofs in the background of the flaw than some dual-camera less thousand machines are less. 6 second-generation rear camera proofs performance, after all, post-camera is a positive.

1 / 158s F / 2.0 ISO100
1 / 477s F / 2.0 ISO100

The first is the general scene of the day, Nokia 6 second-generation imaging white balance and pre-as cold, the degree of deviation has not how to improve; 16 million pixel resolution remarkable, more dynamic range of color, the dark part of the screen Details retained in the same price model is called very place; post-processing also tend to be true, but the sub-saturation and contrast, completely back to the fare.

During the daytime high-contrast scene, we set the HDR to off and on and on, each for imaging. What's shocking is that the second generation of Nokia 6's outstanding dynamic range makes it very imaging-ready with the HDR turned off High latitude to ensure the darkness of the brightness and detail at the same time the sky is not too overexposed; open HDR, the proofs but a certain degree of color under-saturation problems.Therefore, for high-contrast scenes using Nokia 6 second-generation camera, My suggestion is that HDR should be free from non-major backlighting.

1 / 14s F / 2.0 ISO1000

After all, not equipped with dual camera, want to use the second generation of Nokia 6 to shoot shallow depth of field effect can only rely on F / 2.0 physical aperture itself blur the ability to take the macro .Although this is not impossible to shoot, but the sensor area Small F / 2.0 shots did not provide any great background blurring, and the dual atmosphere of today's still-life and portraiture ambiance has become the shortcomings of the second-generation Nokia 6 camera.

1 / 25s F / 2.0 ISO800
1 / 14s F / 2.0 ISO1250

The second generation of Nokia 6 demonstrated acceptable color reproduction compared to the same scene proofs in daytime (1 pm) and darkroom (7 pm) - although the latter's color brightness and contrast Should be slightly lower, but the ISO value of 1250 to have such a performance, has gone beyond the vast majority of models with the same price.

1 / 14s F / 2.0 ISO2000

Night shots, Nokia 6 second-generation noise cancellation algorithm works well, can remove most of the noise at the same time, try to retain the details of the screen.This makes proofs did not appear in the 'brutal smear' traces, the impression of good ; But in terms of purity, Nokia 6 second-generation night shot proofs from time to time there will be some color noise, be a little regrettable.

Hardware platform, the second generation of Nokia 6 equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 platform, which is recognized as the industry's second half of 2017 thousand machine best hardware platform, the use of 14nm LPP process it is even more cool.After the Snapdragon 630 in Nokia 7 And 360 N6 series also showed a good performance experience, 360 N6 Lite also with this hardware platform has become the first to support the "king glory" high frame rate mode hundred machine.

In the GeekBench 4 test, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 on the second generation of Nokia 6 achieved CPU Benchmark scores of single-core 852 / multi-core 4061 and Compute Benchmark scores of 3241. After comparison, Nokia 6 The second generation of the body of the Xiaolong 630 GPU performance compared to the Snapdragon 626 increased 33%, has been able to run smoothly "Cross Fire - Island Training", "Terminator 2" and other hardware requirements of lower eating In addition, Nokia 6 second-generation 4GB LPDDR4 shipped, lower power consumption, higher operating efficiency.

Nokia 6 second-generation battery capacity of 3000mAh, and the same as before.The terrible is that the hardware performance has been greatly improved under the circumstances, Nokia 6 second-generation endurance rose or fall, after we simulate a full day of high strength With a 5-hour, overweight endurance test, the remaining charge is up to 40%, almost double the number of the Nokia 6 generation (21%).

In addition, Nokia 6 second-generation standard with QC 3.0 charging head, which is its predecessor for a big upgrade point.Although the head of the fast-sized larger, but the charging efficiency is indeed very high.Through measured, Nokia 6 The second generation of fast charge power can be stable at 16W up and down, about 90 minutes to complete the cycle of charging.

On the basis of the first generation of Nokia 6, the second generation of products from the hardware performance, camera quality, battery life and many other aspects to achieve a leapfrog upgrade, and to maintain the advantages of pure system, can be said is a comprehensive experience is very good product.

Perhaps, you will complain that it is not equipped with a full screen; maybe, you will also be dissatisfied with the lack of dual camera; but the second generation of Nokia 6 actually revealed this message with the actual performance: thousand strong machine 18: 9 screen In other parts of the province cost, it is better not to use; but with the double photo in the imaging quality cut corners, it is better not to use.Now the market a lot of new gimmicks over the strength of the Nokia 6 second-generation such products absolutely 堪称A clean stream - it is too honest, but it is honest and honest, reliable.

During the daytime high-contrast scene, we set the HDR to off and on and on for imaging, and it was shocking that the second generation of Nokia 6's excellent dynamic range allowed it to have very close imaging in closed HDR High latitude to ensure the darkness of the brightness and detail at the same time the sky is not too overexposed; open HDR, the proofs but a certain degree of color under-saturation problems.Therefore, for high-contrast scenes using Nokia 6 second-generation camera, My suggestion is that HDR should be free from non-major backlighting.
