Tucao millet, diss glory, tribute to Huawei, Lenovo mobile phone is very busy recently.
After a series of 'touch porcelain' campaigns, Lenovo Mobile finally held a new product launch on October 18th, unveiling the mystery of the 'Idol-level self-timer' S5 Pro. Frankly speaking, the former Lenovo Z5 for the 'new national flagship' The interpretation is really embarrassing, quite bluffing, so for this S5 Pro, I chose to block the official propaganda, less arrogant, look directly at things.
A good Liu Haiping
Following the design trend of recent years, Lenovo S5 Pro also adopted Liu Haiping design, but compared to the 'small bangs' that has evolved into water droplets, the pearl of S5 Pro is somewhat lenient, and the look and feel is very similar to iPhone X.
Of course, the large bangs will also accommodate a wider range of sensors. In addition to accommodating the necessary earpieces, light distance sensors and 20 megapixel cameras, S5 Pro's Liu Haizhong also designed an 8 megapixel infrared camera. In order to capture facial 3D information to assist beauty, on the other hand, it also enhances the face unlocking efficiency under dark light.
On the screen, Lenovo S5 Pro uses a 6.2-inch LCD screen, 19: 9 aspect ratio, resolution of 2246 * 1080, 113% sRGB color gamut performance, the highest brightness up to 600 nits. Entity experience, The color performance of this screen is relatively pleasing to the eye, the perception under the strong light is acceptable, and the overall performance is in the lead in the same price.
As for the width of the chin, it can be seen that the Lenovo S5 Pro also has control, which is medium level in the LCD screen products. Fortunately, the width of the side borders of the S5 Pro is called, and the transition of the large R angle visually weakens the width of the chin, making the whole The sense of view is more harmonious.
See also one-piece body
Unlike the glass body used in mainstream models, the Lenovo S5 Pro features an all-metal integrated body. The line design is more similar to the iPhone 6 series. The back is very flat, with a slight arc transition on both sides, and the surface is 205 zirconium. Sand sanding, the touch is much finer than the original metal, it is not difficult to hold it in your hand.
It should be said that from the signal band injection molding, CNC machining to surface treatment, the metal body of Lenovo S5 Pro has been considered excellent in the thousand yuan machine. After all, there are still many models staying in the three-stage body, or continue to polish. Big plastic.
In order to improve the recognition, Lenovo also printed its own logo in the lower left corner of the fuselage, corresponding to the position of the double camera module above, faintly with the style of the former Lenovo big shot.
How about rear double camera?
On the camera side, the Lenovo S5 Pro uses a mainstream dual-camera configuration with a 12-megapixel wide-angle master, F 1.8 aperture, an extra 20 megapixel telephoto sub-shooting, F 2.6 aperture for optical zoom and Portrait shot, look at the sample.
Lenovo S5 Pro's color is warmer and the details are limited, which basically meets the daily use. However, as a mobile phone with camera-based features, Lenovo S5 Pro has some problems to be solved, such as zoom switching, HDR imaging is slow. And with a composite picture from light to dark, the picture quality still has room for optimization.
20 megapixel beauty selfie
Taking self-timer as the main feature, Lenovo S5 Pro is equipped with a 20-megapixel main camera and an 8-megapixel infrared camera. The former is responsible for self-timer imaging, and supports pixel four-in-one technology to improve night self-timer effect; the latter can assist The main camera performs 3D modeling of the face, providing a basis for more natural beauty, light effects, etc.
The beauty of Lenovo S5 Pro starts from many aspects. In addition to the conventional dermabrasion skin, it also supports facial micro-shaping, such as big eyes, face-lifting, etc., after the actual experience has a more obvious effect.
In addition, Lenovo S5 Pro supports 6 kinds of ambient light effects, providing natural light, stage light, morning light, rainbow light, studio light and other 3D portrait light effects. These light effects are not superimposed by simple filters, relying on double shots for spatial information. Capture to create a 3D stereo model to achieve a more realistic stereo fill effect.
Of course, the specific beauty effect varies from person to person, and you can see the effect through the sample.
骁龙636, basically meet the needs of mobile games
Lenovo S5 Pro uses the Snapdragon 636 mobile platform. As a mid-range SoC that Qualcomm mainly promoted this year, it is like a chicken blood version of Snapdragon 630. But in fact, this is a true and uncompromising Youth version of the dragon 660.
On paper, the Snapdragon 636 is built using the advanced 14nm FinFET process. The Kryo 260 architecture is the same as the Snapdragon 660. The 4+4 core design, the highest frequency of the four large cores is 1.8Ghz, and 4 small cores. For 1.6Ghz, only the main core frequency is slightly lower than the 2.2GHz of the Snapdragon 660.
At the same time, Snapdragon 636 built-in Adreno 509 GPU, Spectra 160 ISP, Hexagon 680 DSP, baseband for Snapdragon X12 LTE Modem, up to 600Mbps downlink speed, support dual card dual standby dual 4G, including 5G WiFi, Bluetooth 5 support, Comprehensive performance is comprehensive, is an affordable option.
In the actual experience, the upgrade of the Snapdragon 636 with 6GB of running memory in the daily experience is very obvious. The mainstream mobile game "Glory of the King" in the high frame rate mode, the intense team battle scene can also be maintained above 30fps, for the requirements High eating of chickens, reducing the quality of the painting is enough.
New ZUI+ sincere charging set
Lenovo S5 Pro runs the latest ZUI 5.0 system. In the actual experience, its fluency and handyness have significantly improved ZUI 3.9 in the early stage of Z5. At the same time, I also noticed that ZUI 5.0 interface has also been modified. For example, cancel the shortcut menu at the bottom and change to the more mainstream drop-down menu.
ZUI 5.0 optimizes the full screen gesture, from the bottom to any position to trigger the return, the bottom left and right edges slide inward to correspond to multitasking, the bottom of any position to slide and hover is to return to the home page, with the dynamic effect, the operation is very easy to get started.
In addition, Lenovo S5 Pro's face unlock has a good speed, due to the existence of infrared cameras, the speed and success rate of night unlocking is significantly improved, which is difficult to experience in the same price model.
It is also worthy of praise. Lenovo S5 Pro is equipped with a Type-C interface, built-in 3500mAh battery, supports QC3.0 fast charge, and comes standard with QC3.0 fast charge, and the battery life is properly adhered to one day, even If you have no power, you can add enough power in a short time.
Starting at 1298 yuan, there is a price/performance ratio, but the advantage is no longer
With the tone of 'national mobile phone, conscience excellent product', the price of Lenovo S5 Pro still follows this line of thought. The 6GB+64GB version is priced at 1398 yuan, and an additional 1298 yuan gold version is also available. Contact its Snapdragon 636. The mainstream bangs screen, front and rear double-shooting and other features, can be called cost-effective.
However, the horizontal contrast is equipped with Xiaolong 660's Xiaomi 8 Youth Edition (from 1399 yuan), Xiaomi 6X, etc. (1199). Similar to the positioning model, Lenovo S5 Pro has no absolute strength in design, technology, configuration, photo taking, etc. The price/performance advantage is not obvious, and the appeal to rational consumers may be limited. Fortunately, Lenovo Mobile also invited the popular Zhu Yilong as a spokesperson, which may affect the purchase of some consumers.
