Glory 10 Review: Truly young technology trends

In today's 'consumer upgrade' environment, smart phones are gradually shifting from a purely technological product to electronic fast-moving consumer products. For many users, smart phones can truly experience other experiences beyond the icy hardware. It has also become crucial. In this era of 'value is justice', the value of a product's color value to a certain extent determines whether it can attract users in the shortest time, especially the glory so positioned in the young The user's brand.

Therefore, on Glory 8, it brings the classic 'enchanting sea blue' color scheme. Then on Glory 9, it creates a 'gull grey' color scheme. In the latest generation, each generation is well deserved to be the honorable value of the mobile phone. The Glory of the Release 10, Glory further challenges the more complex Aurora coating process and the glorious 10 unique 'Phantom' color scheme. Today's review, let's take a look at this 'Glory in the history's most beautiful' mobile phone.

In Sinomax’s newly announced mobile phone sales in the Q1 quarter of 2018, Glory won the No. 1 online sales of all brands and No. 1 in Chinese Internet brand sales, further consolidating the status of the first brand of Internet mobile phones in the Chinese market. Looking at the product line of Glory Mobile, the price of Glory Digital's flagship is also in the range of 2500-3000, and this price segment is just the most sensitive price segment glory has been positioned by the young user groups at the time of purchase. As a mobile phone on the Internet , Its purchasing users are more concerned about the glory of mobile phones, especially a flagship configuration than the average user. In this part of the article, we first look at the glory 10 hardware configuration.

Through the parameter list, we can see that Glory 10 does not ignore the requirements for configuration because of the product's main design. Unicorn 970, 6GB of running memory for the entire system, and 3400mAh high-capacity battery for everyone's concern, guarantees glory 10 daily use. Experience. In terms of photography, Glory 10 is equipped with a dual camera combination of 24 million and 16 million pixels, and Glory upgraded the built-in AI camera engine to 2.0, supports 22 types of tags, and 500+ kinds of scenes are intelligently identified. Style to do targeted tuning. It is worth mentioning that, glory 10 in the audio upgrade to AK4376A Hifi chip. Overall, in the price segment of 2500-3000, glory 10 hardware configuration can be called more sincere.

Design:

Since the beginning of Glory 8, Glory's digital flagship has positioned itself as a fashion trend for young people. From this point onwards, Glory has sought to make breakthroughs in the design of every generation of digital flagships. From Glory to Ocean 8 Glamour 9 Glory to Seagull Grey , to glory 10 phantom discoloration series; from glory 8 to 15 on the composite material process, to glory 9 on further light engraving technology, to glory 10 on the Aurora coating process. In the exterior design, glory' has been imitated, from Not exceeded.

Glory 10 pioneered the color-changing aurora coating, using the principle of optical path difference. When the light is directly on the body, different angles, different light, will show different unique colors. There are many kinds of 'viewing into the side of the peak, near and far. Different levels of feeling.

The hardest part of the whole process is blue, purple can be evenly mixed, more than one point is blue, one point is purple, and behind the glory of the final 10 light color, it is Glory Engineer in Class 100 clean room. , With double the time and cost, the constant adjustment of 36 light color detection surface of the back shell.

Glory 10 uses a 5.84-inch 19:9 full screen, with a body width of 71.2mm and a thickness of 7.7mm. It is the same as the iPhone X. It is still friendly to one-handed gripping.

At the top of the fuselage, Glory 10 uses a 'little face' design. The notch area is smaller than the iphoneX, and has a wider display area. It is centered on the oval receiver, and the front camera and distance sensor are symmetrical.

At the bottom of the fuselage, Glory 10 uses Under Glass's ultrasonic fingerprinting solution to ensure the integrity of the front panel. A dashed line is drawn under the glass cover to easily tell the user the location of fingerprint recognition.

In addition, Glory 10 frontal 2.5D arc glass, back with biaxial curved glass, with a very narrow cnc high light border between the double glass and the metal frame, to ensure a delicate transition on both sides of the fuselage. The moderate curvature of the four corners provides a comfortable, rounded grip.

Photo test:

Glory 10 uses 16 million pixels color and 24 million pixels black and white dual lens, both cameras are f 1.8 large aperture, supports dual-core phase focus. In the photo, when the light is sufficient, the color camera is responsible for imaging, and in the dark In the light environment, the black-and-white camera captures the layers and details, the color camera collects the colors, and the two cooperate to enhance the imaging quality.

On the software side, in the V10 released at the end of last year, the AI ​​was photographed for the first time, and it was able to identify thirteen labels such as blue sky, flowers, and text. In glory 10's AI 2.0, it was further upgraded to recognize 22 types of labels. More than 500 scenes. Also based on the AI ​​intelligence to identify the content of the different areas of the image, the image of the viewfinder interface is accurately segmented, and the images of different areas are individually optimized. What is the actual effect, we use the sample to speak.

In this set of proofs, the picture above shows that glory 10 does not turn on the AI, and the following figure shows the open AI mode. It can be clearly seen that under the AI's 'differential treatment', it is detected that the lower part of the picture is very underexposed, so the AI ​​is automatically Raise the brightness of the lower part of the screen, and only optimize the color of the sky part of the exposure, so that the blue sky exposure is still normal, and the color is more full.

In our most commonly used food delicacies, the AI ​​of Glory 10 has identified the current subject as a gourmet, and therefore intelligently optimizes the color of the food. Red peppers and golden grilled fish are more full of food. In contrast, iPhone X looks bland.

In addition, for the large aperture or portrait mode, this is a test of the strength of the combination of hardware and software of the mobile phone camera. In this sample comparison, Glory 10 is based on AI 2.0 separation of the human view, more accurate for object edge recognition, and even for Reflective highlights on the edge of the helmet can also be accurately identified. The iPhone X is overturned in this complex environment.

At night, Glory 10 has good control of the highlights, and the purity of the sky performs well. However, compared with the iPhone X, the brightness of the screen is somewhat conservative. But the bright iPhone X also brings glare and noise.

Of course, Glory 10 can still be improved with regard to the brightness of the screen. In this set of proofs, after turning on the AI ​​(below), the darkness of the children's paradise has obviously improved the brightness of the screen, bringing some details of the shadows. The light board at the place is completely reserved, embodying the precise control of glory 10 AI on the semantic segmentation of the screen.

On the whole, Glory 10 further strengthens its imaging capabilities by introducing AI technology based on powerful hardware. However, what is important is:

Glory believes that in the flagship mobile phone, the hardware configuration is generally sufficient, and for ordinary users, the real pain point when taking pictures is that 'it will not shoot.' Because ordinary users are not photographers, they cannot make up for the powerful hardware. The lack of shooting skills. When taking pictures, how to set the scene, how to optimize the camera parameters, all reflect the glory of thinking about taking pictures. And glory 10 AI camera 2.0 brought about for landscape photographers, human photographers, etc. The machine learning of different categories of photographer works can effectively shorten the gap between the white user and the photographer, and can also take good photos conveniently.

EMUI 8.1

Glory 10 is equipped with EMUI 8.1 version, based on Andriod 8.1 version. This is also the third-party OS system supports the fastest version of the Android version. This point should be liked for the EMUI team. Because after Android 7.0, Google is actually on the Android system. The AOSP source code specification is getting more and more tighter. Therefore, in updating the system version (most importantly, new features and security patches), third-party vendors must comply with the AOSP specification. In today, timely follow-up Android native version, for the user experience And security has a very important role.

Glory 10 has created an exclusive 'Aurora' theme for aurora products. The design inspiration comes from the mysterious Aurora 'Aurora', with its own aurora wallpaper, and the font has been modified to be more refined.

For Liu Haiping of Glory 10, Glory also presented a solution in EMUI: The option of having display area control in the settings can be set as the default Liu Haiping, or it can be set to hide the display area and set to normal 18: 9 Full Screen. Return the selected rights to the user.

In addition, EMUI 8.1 also adds one-button navigation gesture operation. The user can touch, long press, slide left and right, and click the left and right icons to realize the function of virtual home button.

In addition, Glory 10 also supports AI Smart Screen. In any scene, two fingers press the picture you want to identify, the phone will automatically identify the image, jump to Taobao for quick purchase.

Hardware performance:

Glory 10 uses the Unicorn 970 processor, TSMC 10nm process, 4*Cortex A73@2.36Ghz+4*Cortex A53@1.8Ghz, and forms the BigLITTLE architecture with performance and performance. The GPU part is the Mali-G72, MP12. Kirin 960, Kirin 970 has a 20% increase in performance, and an energy efficiency improvement of 50%.

Kirin 970 also has a built-in independent NPU unit, which has 25 times the performance of traditional CPU in machine learning, 6.25 times the performance of GPU, and has the advantage of ultra-low power consumption. For example, in the calculation of image recognition, the NPU is equipped with NPU. The Unicorn 970 can process 2005 photos per minute, and the CPU operation can only reach a speed of 95 sheets per minute. On Master Lu's AI running points, the score is 60% higher than that of the Xiaolong 835 in the same period.

Charging:

Glory 10 is equipped with a 5V 4.5A fast charge kit, which can achieve a peak power of nearly 21W under actual testing. In the half hour test, Glory 10 also rushes from 0 to 60%. This speed is currently in the Android flagship. It still belongs to a very good standard.

Ultrasound fingerprint:

Compared with many of the current flagships, the biggest difference in the hardware of the Glory 10 is the ultrasonic fingerprinting. Because the ultrasonic wave is penetrating, the ultrasonic wave is scanned by a finger at a specific frequency emitted by the fingerprint module, and the reflected ultrasonic wave is reflected by different pairs of fingerprints. Differently, 3D fingerprints can be created. So for glory 10, you want to create a one-piece ID design. Ultra fingerprint identification under glass is undoubtedly a good choice at this stage.

However, ultrasonic fingerprinting has rarely been used by manufacturers because of its speed and accuracy. And after the author's actual test, glory 10's ultrasonic fingerprint recognition and capacitance are almost the same, and support for wet hands to unlock.

to sum up:

Since Glory 8, Glory's digital flagship has been regarded as the honorable value of mobile phones. It is positioned to create glory for the young people of technology, and the grasp of market segments also promotes Glory to reach the status of the number one brand on the Internet today. From the point of view of the product, Glory 10 has a superior appearance design, a good hardware configuration, and a right pricing strategy. From whatever aspect, he will show you the best way to accept it.
