In the previous core evaluation of 360 N4 , enthusiastic friend @DD7115 said to me in the comments:
The relative enthusiasm of this enthusiastic friend is certainly moving . Familiar with my friends all know that I am a good old man who has received numerous good cards . So rushed to bring everyone the glory of the 5C core function evaluation. Not much to say, go straight away!
Glory 5C uses a blue package exclusive to the Glory series . The silver glory/honor logo is simple and eye-catching.
The glory 5C I got this time is the full version of Netcom . In fact, glory 5C was released as early as the end of April, but only mobile 4G, dual 4G version. The entire Netcom version arrived late in June . This is not Netcom, Huawei's first all mobile phones, but it has a different milestone. We will talk about this later.
There is no suspense in the four-piece machine: fuselage , charger , data cable , card pin . In addition to the three accessories, there is a hidden surprise: 5C factory has been posted a plastic film . The practice of owning the film at the factory is more common in offline brands such as OPPO and vivo. It is rare to see Internet brands.
Just saw the glory 5C charger, I feel this little head is very beautiful . The results of a look at the power: 5V/1A , my heart was cold and half.
Glory 5C is equipped with a 5.2-inch 1080P screen , between the current most popular 5 inch and 5.5 inch. Although there is no 2.5D glass that is very popular among thousands of machines, it is a good thing for friends who like to wear a film. The arrangement of the components on the forehead is relatively arbitrary , there is no integration like a hammer, and there is no symmetry like the charm blue.
The appearance of smartphones is becoming more and more homogenous, and the front of mobile phones is the hardest hit area. In order to solve the problem of low recognition, the Glory Series has added a “honor†mark to the chin (here @HTC) starting from V8. The degree of recognition is improved. As for the U.S. and U.S., it is a matter of opinion.
Few thousand Yuan machine narrow border, 5C glory was not spared. The white panel is clear at a glance: there is a rather pronounced black border on the edge of the screen, plus no narrow white borders . So that the body width reached 73.8mm , quickly catch up with the 5.5-inch mobile phone.
Thousands of machines are now blowing up the tide of metal, glory 5C also caught up with the trend. However, 5C is only one piece in the middle of the back cover . It is a stamped metal material. The top and bottom ends of the frame and back cover are still plastic . It can only be described as a "metal back cover" rather than a "metallic body . " According to the teardown situation, 5C is re-embedded with a layer of metal on a complete plastic back cover, a bit of metal and metal. Fortunately, the transition between metal and plastic is fairly flat.
The camera, fingerprint identification, and flash are located on the back cover. The camera is prominent , and the silver around the camera is not metal, but chrome plastic . Used for a long time, wear paint can not be avoided .
5C's three buttons are located on the right side of the fuselage, and the frame is the same plastic material . The touch and feel of the keys are just fine. Fortunately, the location of the key setting is reasonable . It is easily accessible with one-handed operation and is comfortable to operate .
The glory 5C card slot is located on the left side of the fuselage. The slot is not formed in one piece , but it does a good job. It is tight and flat after installation. 5C is also the most popular "and or card slot." Dual card and expansion can only choose one .
The 5C's speaker and microphone are located at the bottom of the phone . The benefits are obvious: It's not easy to cover the phone when you lay it flat (squinting on the red phone). There is a Micro USB interface in the middle, it seems that the popularity of Type-C has not yet reached the thousand Yuan machine. It's a pity.
As for the handle, 5C's "metal back cover" is a stamping and drawing process . Less delicate and supple than the more popular sandblasting process. The plastic part has an inexplicable greasy feel . Fortunately, the position of metal and plastic splicing is relatively smooth, and the border has a certain degree of curvature. In general, although the 5C feel is not excellent , there is no problem .
In the video, the glory 5C is equipped with a 13 million pixel sensor, support phase focus , the specific model is unknown. Aperture value f/2.0 . With a monochrome fill light. Such parameters are very common in thousands of machines, and nothing can be seen from these parameters alone.
Although the glory 5C is a thousand-yuan machine, the functions of the camera are very rich , such as manual mode , long exposure, etc. are not lacking. The very useful functions of document correction and photo translation are also integrated into the photo application. APP entire camera design is reasonable to arrange a variety of functions are very handy
The first is the first scene, the outdoor safflower in the sun. Glory 5C color performance is a little bit aggressive . The color of the big red flower is a little oversaturated , and the color is also biased towards magenta . There is no big problem with green.
The second scene is an outdoor panorama. Glory 5C also does not have much problem. However, careful observation will reveal that 5C's white balance in the sun is slightly warmer . This leaves the leaves looking less green and less blue.
Finally, there is a still life in the dark under the room. It is the easiest place to open the gap when there is insufficient light. Since there is no optical image stabilization, the glory 5C ISO is raised to 1250. The picture shows a more pronounced loss of saturation (note the eyes and feet of the robot). However, 5C's noise reduction algorithm is good, there is no ugly smear marks . In the case of thumbnails, the screen is relatively clean, and it is not a problem for social sharing. This is more difficult in thousands of machines.
Focusing on 5C is worth mentioning separately. Thousand Yuan machines now generally support hybrid focus. However, few people can use the PDAF, and the 5C can be considered as one. The 5C's focus is very crisp and decisive . Which is basically what, there is no obvious pull bellows . In a large contrast environment, linked metering is very fast . (The above GIF diagram due to screen recording, the picture is a bit stuck, the actual focus experience is more smooth than the motion picture display)
In summary, as a thousand Yuan machine, the overall picture quality of Glory 5C still performed well . Coupled with a powerful and easy-to-use camera app and decisive focus , the glory 5C's photo experience is satisfactory. If you can further improve the performance of white balance and color, it is even more ideal.
Glory 5C equipped with a 5.2-inch 1080P screen , GFF full fit program . The default screen color temperature is about 7400K, slightly cooler . The screen is colorful and there is no noticeable color shift. And the viewing angle is excellent ! Both horizontal and vertical viewing angles exceed 170°. Only a slight drop in contrast occurs at certain extreme locations (such as the diagonal). The brightness is also good and it is clearly visible in the sun .
Glory 5C's screen adjustment is very powerful . Not only can you adjust the color temperature , you can also adjust the tone within a certain range. This program can meet different people's preference for screen tone and is a good choice.
The glory of the 5C's screen is very good , watching video on such a screen is indeed a pleasure. In terms of audio, the Glory 5C is also equipped with a smartPA power amplifier and BOX integrated sound cavity. The loud sound is loud and loud , and there is no obvious break in the maximum volume. In general, the glory 5C audio and video works well, very rare in thousands of machine!
What is the most attractive thing to say about glory 5C? It is definitely the unicorn 650 chip. After all, this is the only 16nm process SoC in (currently) thousands of machines. And for the first time, the glory 5C used Huawei's self-developed full Netcom baseband (retrospection of the glory of the 7 generation of the baseband's black history). Can glory 5C's life endure Huawei's fight?
Glory 5C after 4 hours of daily operation and 8 hours of standby . The remaining electricity is 69%. Mild use can be approached for two days, and heavy use can be used for the entire day . This performance is very good for a 3000mAh battery. In fact, the biggest highlight of glory 5C should be in game power consumption . 1 hour consumes only 16% of electricity. And playing games for a long time is only slightly warm and not hot . The 16nm FinFET+ Process Makes a Success!
When I just saw the small charger out of the box, I had an ominous feeling . As a result, 5C actually turned over in the ditch. 5C from 1% to full time-consuming 3.5 hours , is the slowest of many mobile phones I tested, and for the first time in more than 3 hours. In order to avoid mistakes, I also used several chargers with different power, respectively charging in the case of on and off. Multiple test results are consistent . It can be seen that the charging current of the 5C board is limited to 1A . This charging speed, I can only say: 5C no iPhone's life, but got the iPhone's disease!
Glory 5C has a good battery life and amazing charging speed . I can't summarize this part, everyone can figure it out
Huawei/Glory currently uses post-fingerprint recognition across the board. Glory 5C is no exception. 5.2 inches under the fuselage, this button is still relatively easy to press. There is a slight delay to unlock under a black screen, about 0.5 seconds . Not very fast, but it reached the average level of thousand machines .
In addition to fingerprint unlocking, 5C's fingerprint recognition also has many fun features, such as fingerprint payment (Alipay only), as well as a variety of fingerprint gestures , such as the fingerprint call out Alipay scan code interface, fingerprint gesture notification notification center and so on.
The glory 5C is equipped with EMUI 4.1 based on Android 6.0. My first contact with EMUI was in Glory 6. At the time, EMUI gave me the feeling of rough design + messy logic. Two generations later , EMUI 4.1 made me greatly improved . The design style has slightly followed the times, and the logic of more systems has also been optimized.
The progress of EMUI 4.1 is obvious, for example , the arrangement of the arrangement is much more reasonable than before. More importantly, EMUI is very open on pre-installed applications, including "game center", "life service", and "healthy" systems that can be uninstalled . "Prepare for the user, choose for the user" is the best. This alone is worth EMUI to praise, worthy of other manufacturers to learn
In theory, the performance of this SoC of the Unicorn 650 is between the Helio P10 and the Snapdragon 650 . Specifications are not much high-end . But with EMUI 4.1 it is very smooth . Especially when the task is switched, the kind of refreshing feeling is unspeakable , even close to some flagship models. It seems that Huawei is more familiar with its own SoC and is more capable of optimization.
In conclusion, the overall experience of Glory 5C is very good . Fun, feature-rich fingerprint recognition, a greatly improved EMUI 4.1, and a smooth operating experience are all very impressive .
advantage:
Thousand Yuan machine rare screen display effect
EMUI 4.1 progress is obvious, perfect function, smooth operation
16nm process brings good battery life and heat performance
The camera focuses quickly and the photo is good
Out loud, good audio and video experience
Fingerprint recognition feature rich, support for fingerprint payment
Disadvantages:
Strange "metal back cover" design with wider frame
Photo white balance, color performance has a small problem
Lack of dual color temperature flash
Unbearably slow charging speed (3.5 hours full)
Although the progress of the thousand Yuan machine in these two years is very large, the "compromise" is the main theme of the thousand Yuan machine : In order to be outstanding in one aspect, it is bound to give up in another aspect. The Glory 5C did not choose such a compromise . Although it does not have a particularly prominent place , every aspect is doing a good job (at least it is qualified). The "balance" pursued by Glory 5C is my favorite. However, 5C, which was supposed to be "perfect," turned over in the gutter of charging speed . It's a pity that it's awkward.
Buying advice: If you don't have a lot of budget, like a mobile phone with a well-balanced power and no obvious short board; and you just don't care about charging speed. That glory 5C is the best choice for a thousand dollar machine
