Ten years ago, when the functional machine was still dominated by the world, the most direct bridge between the user and the mobile phone was the keyboard of each phone, so people made the phone keyboard into a T9 shape, a full keyboard or even a handheld-like shape ; Ten years later today, the era of smart phones, the screen has become the most direct bridge between the user and mobile phone communication. Therefore, we have experienced from small screen to large screen, curved screen, to a full screen evolution. Technology advances and then continue to meet and Challenge people to imagine the form of mobile phones. As the traditional brand of silence for nearly two years, the beginning of the year, ZTE launched a folding smartphone in China: the ZTE secret Axon M, the most we can see on the concept of the machine to become a reality .And for a Volkswagen Products, innovation must be connected with the use, in order to truly call it innovative, otherwise it can only be regarded as the manufacturer of Hyun technology and our evaluation today to see this ZTE secret Axon M, in the end is' innovation 'or' Hyun technology '. Why double screen folding? When the smartphone started to popularize, there was a "screen wind" blowing up and the screen grew bigger and bigger: from 4 inches to 4.2, 4.7, 5.5 and even above 6 inches, many users were using After the large-screen mobile phones have all said 'can not go back' However, the screen size and portability is always a pair can not really reconcile the contradiction.People ask for convenience, but also enjoy the big screen immersion. And in the present era of information explosion, the big screen for the improvement of the content display efficiency is also obvious, such as multi-task information switching. However, when the screen size reaches a certain point, everyone relies on advances in technology to achieve the screen size through curved surfaces, narrow edges and other means, while maintaining the overall size of the machine is still an acceptable range.But whether the surface, the narrow side or even Is a full screen, can only be optimized within a fixed screen size as much as possible, but can not be extended so that we naturally think of large and small folding screen and folding dual-screen ZTE secret Axon M, It is in the future to explore the form of a cell phone.
Axon M appearance of interpretation ZTE secret Axon M is composed of two 5.2-inch IPS screen connected through the shaft, is divided into A screen / B screen. Normal state, the two screens back to back together, A screen integrated camera , LED fill light, handset and indicator light. The whole product looks more Founder, a bit similar to 'sleek and sharp era.' In normal mode, both Axon M screens are exposed, so Axon M did not design a back camera, the entire phone has only one camera. When turned on the default is the front camera, by switching to the rear camera in the camera APP, and then Flip the screen to complete the work of the main camera.Although the use of sacrificed some convenience, but it also improves the front camera imaging quality, is a pros and cons. Two screens connected by a screen hinge, and for this shaft, we are most concerned about is its durability. And ZTE official also gives 40,000 times 3 years of quality assurance, and for a smart machine , Taking into account its audience, this durability is also more acceptable.The entire opening and closing of a sense of damping a little stiff, this shaft in the opening and closing, there will be a similar snap fixed 'Kaka' sound. The fuselage hinge occupies 90% of the right side of the A screen, so Axon M will SIM card slot, volume keys, power keys, independently designed on the left side of A. This design will inevitably be for most right-handed people will not habit. In the usual double-screen closed, the body is the front and back both sides of the screen, so this product is the sense of the fuselage back was hidden in the middle of the two screens will expand the two screens, you will see the back of the screen. See, because usually rarely have the opportunity to reveal, so the back of the Axon M ZTE has a more primitive sense of industry. The double-fold design does bring a morphological innovation to the phone, but such a design also allows Axon M to make some compromises: the thickness of the body, the location of the fingerprint module, and the design of the two back-to-back screens Axon M heatsink does have some problems. Innovation always comes at a price, and the focus is on whether Axon M is a real innovation or a gimmick, and then we look at reviews.
Double-screen folding, innovation or gimmick? ZTE Axon M equipped with two 5.2-inch Full HD screen, and through the hinge connected to achieve the maximum 180 degrees of folding.This setting makes the phone more like the old popular NDS handheld, effective way to fold the collapse of compression Volume, providing greater portability, while showing a larger display area, and bring more new games. Specifically, ZTE Axon M offers four different display modes based on different folding styles and screen calling modes: classic mode, large screen mode, split screen mode, and mirror mode. To facilitate switching, ZTE Axon M M navigation bar is designed with a M icon at the far right, click to enter from the four modes can be arbitrarily selected. ZTE also humanely attached icons to these four modes, such as A / A, Extend A, A / B, and Classic. Mirror mode (A / A) Mirror mode that the two screens display the same content, and can be synchronized instantly, through the hinge folding, ZTE Axon M can stand on the desktop like a tent for face-to-face sharing scenarios, to resolve the embarrassment of many people share the same phone screen. At the same time, ZTE Axon M also comes bundled in the package in particular, a two 3.5mm headphone cable, it is easy to watch video in the video mode two audio sharing. Large screen mode (Extend A) The ZTE Axon M two 180-degree screen flip stitching, you can form a 6.75-inch large screen, with a larger field of vision, to achieve close to the tablet operating experience. Coupled with Axon M just the size of the Kindle and electronics like Pretty book, text reading has a good experience. In addition the game is actually a major advantage of the big screen, with the help of the shape of the NDS handheld, ZTE Axon M a piece of the screen can be avatar game handle, "King glory" such popular hand docking, bringing the handheld gaming experience , More interesting. Dual screen mode (A / B) ZTE's Axon M dual-screen mode is equivalent to the Android system split screen operation of the hardware upgrade version, you can simultaneously in two different applications on the screen, the two operations do not interfere with each other. Efficiency, to give a simple example, the shopping process will inevitably have to shop around, using ordinary cell phone is inevitable to shuttle in multiple shopping App, but with Axon M's dual-screen mode, we can open in two different screens Of the shopping app, contrast directly, without the need to switch back and forth.For most investors, time is money, often need to stare at the broader market, while ready to order.If in peacetime, two lines at the same time you need to use Two phones, or a large screen phone with software screen, while the use of Axon M, you can one screen staring at the market, a screen ready to trade. Since it is dual-screen, A / B mode of use experience must be the most concerned about each part, we will be more long-winded a few words: In the actual experience, dual-screen can effectively improve the user's operating efficiency in some scenarios. And ZTE But also for the individual WeChat, Weibo, Jingdong, IQIYI, Tencent software optimized separately, you can double open the software (other software can only open one screen), for some dual WeChat users or more friendly experience, but still hope that The future of other software can be further official optimization, so that innovation can seamlessly docking life. Classic mode (A) The so-called classic model, refers to the two-screen Axon M folded, only open a screen mode of operation, the mode of operation and the mainstream mobile phone no difference. Summary: Overall, Axon M of ZTE is indeed innovating down to reality, not just embroidered pillows. Whether it is the "king of glory", "Jedi survival," nowadays the most popular mobile games alone optimized, or full of feelings NDS games, or double-ply double-pocketed operation for high-frequency applications, Axon M proved that the cost of its design was made up for practicality.
Photo experience: Double folding screen set, making ZTE secret Axon M can not be the same as the traditional form of intelligent machine structure, divided into front and rear camera, but the two screens can be opened at the same time, ZTE come up with a very interesting way: before and after Share the same camera, self-timer when only open A screen; need to be when the rear camera, turn the phone, with the B screen display and use the function of the rear camera, A / B screen at the same time, shooting Or the photographer can see the picture at the same time, so that the photographer can also see the picture in the viewfinder in real time through the A-screen, to a certain extent, avoid the problem of 'a boyfriend who can not take pictures.' In actual performance, the overall camera compared to the now frequently double the flagship, or how much to eat a little deficit.Frame exposure is not enough for the environment more accurate white balance, but the color of the subject is relatively flat, micro From the three-dimensional screen still need to be further strengthened. In the night, glare control is not bad, but the screen purity is lacking.
Overall, ZTE's Axon M's camera function is not as powerful as it is, but it is enough for normal recording of life, especially the dual-screen mode is really cleverly designed and the A / B screen displays the same mode for many first time It's fun to get to Axon M's buddies and also to avoid the embarrassment of having a 'boyfriend who can not photograph'.
Hardware Configuration: ZTE Axon M Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processor, I believe everyone on the processor has also been very familiar with the Bunny, ZTE Axon M ran out of 170,000 results, Geekbench4 single-core 1741, multi-core 4392 results, Although such performance is not top-notch today, it is not a problem for everyday use. In the actual test, open the "king glory" high frame rate mode, in small-scale battles, the frame rate can be maintained at 50Fps up and down, you can run smoothly. to sum up: For Android phones, 'homogeneity' is one of the biggest problems that all high-end handsets face today, so you'll see many brands making what they call 'differentiation' on their flagship, such as' Eye tracking. "But for a line of industrial products, innovation must be connected with the practical, otherwise it will be topped the paper, it is only a hyun from the hi-tech manufacturers. Through the evaluation we can see that the use of folding screen, although there are some effects Axon M: for example, to increase the thickness of the phone, the location of fingerprint recognition, fuselage cooling, etc., but in the innovation has never been a one-way innovation is often accompanied by controversy, There is no doubt that there will be growth.We can not be denied that ZTE Axon M is not perfect, but also undeniably, in the homogenization of today, it has a unique wonderful.
