Nubia Z17 mini the most detailed review: the low price performance king -part 3

As mentioned earlier, the back of the Z17 mini has a sleek curved curve, and the four corners of the phone also use a rounded design with a larger curvature, so that the Z17 mini's appearance does not look so blunt. In the aspect of frame processing, the two oblique and edging designs are positive and negative, but they add a bit of hardness to their smoothness. The design of the entire back of the phone is very simple, the top left is the flash and dual cameras, in order to protect the camera, it deliberately made a metal bulge in the edge, using the iconic red circle for visual embellishment; fingerprint recognition this time also returned to the back, echoing the nubia Logo below.

The Nubia Z17 mini uses a 5.2-inch, 1080P in-cell full-fitting screen, and a layer of 2.5D curved glass on the surface of the screen, which ensures that the entire phone front becomes more rounded while ensuring excellent feel. More importantly, Nubia added a thoughtful design to prevent this from happening on the Z17 mini, as mobile phones often break the screen. A rubber shock belt is added between the screen glass and the metal middle frame. Because the rubber helps buffer the force, it can effectively reduce the occurrence of broken screens.

Dual Photo: Make the most fun camera more professional

Nubia is the main mobile phone camera, the camera's functionality has been unique. Nubia Z17 mini is equipped with a set of dual 13 megapixels IMX258 Sony custom dual camera combination, go even further this time.

The dual camera on the Nubia Z17 mini uses the current mainstream dual-camera solution - a color camera with a black and white camera. This setting can simulate the out-of-focus blur function of the SLR camera. In addition to the conventional blur, it also supports a special portrait mode that enables real-time depth calculations. It is convenient to preview the depth of field of the sample in real time by adjusting the aperture size. Although there is a certain gap between the imaging effect and the SLR, the degree of usability is still good.

Unpacking: Familiar taste

The nubia Z17 mini's packaging box continues Nubia's consistent simplicity: a pure white double box with a nubia logo on the front and an iconic red circle. In addition to the phone inside the box, there are power adapters, data lines, mobile phone manuals and so on. The Z17 mini has launched four color combinations: Champagne Gold, Black Gold, Elegant Black and Hyun Red.

Appearance: Simple and smooth, feeling good

It has always been believed that small things are often more refined. Nubia's mini series has always done well in appearance. This time, the Z17 mini inherited Nubia's Z11 mini design language in terms of appearance. Under the premise of a very convenient and comfortable user, a more minimalist design language was used to build the entire metal body. Nubia Z17 mini uses a complete metal plate processing to create, and in order to maintain the integrity of the metal integration, is to use a one-size-fits-all nano-injection antenna signal band technology, making the entire Z17 mini body metal material ratio reached a staggering 97%.

In terms of size, Nubia controlled the Z17 mini's measurements within 146.65 x 72.5 x 7.45 mm, and in particular, the body thickness of 7.45 mm was thinner than the previous one by 0.15 mm. After the sharp drop in thickness, thanks to the curvature of the back of the body design, so that the grip of the phone in the hand does not have any discomfort. In addition, the entire back metal surface uses a very fine sandblasting process, which highlights the texture of the metal and gives a skin-like touch, further strengthening the Z17 mini's excellent feel. The main thing is that on the back of the Nubia Z17 mini, a layer of oleophobic was added. Compared with other manufacturers' metal mobile phones, the Z17 mini is more resistant to fingerprints and grease in the hands.

Nubia Z17 mini the most detailed review: the low price performance king -part 1

The development of mobile phones has gone from simple hardware upgrades to experience upgrades. It is no longer simply a matter of performance, but more about the soft strength of appearance, cameras, and so on. Nubia's mini series, as its flagship small screen smartphones, has been very popular with the market. The nubia Z17 mini also closely follows the trend of the times. Under the sufficient performance guarantee of Qualcomm Snapdragon 652/653 with 4G/6G, it brought an all-metal body and dual camera upgrades, making it look better on the basis of its appearance. The camera of Nubia has always been a model of many fun, and on the basis of the dual-camera upgrade, not only more in line with the mainstream needs, but also make it more comprehensive and balanced, but also make me have more expectations.

Dual camera is the standard of this year's mainstream, as the main camera smartphones manufacturers, Nubia naturally will not miss everyone's favorite. After launching its first dual-camera model M2, it also upgraded its mini series to the Nubia Z17 mini with dual camera. In fact, since the birth of this series of nubia mini, it has become much loved by consumers. After all, everyone wants their mobile phone to have a more appropriate feel, not so big, but the configuration should be as good as the big screen flagship. In today's 6-inch big screen times, Nubia also raised the screen size of the mini series to 5.2 inches.

In fact, I can be considered as a fan of the mini series. From the Z5 mini, I have been concerned about this series of models. Especially when it comes to the Z11 mini, the light, simple feel really gave me a surprise. Z17 mini has a total of two versions, one is the 4G+64G version, priced at 1,699 yuan; the other is a 6G+64G version, priced at 2,000 yuan, I got myself the high version, let us have a look together!

With violence, OnePlus 6 VS Black Shark -part 2

I believe that everyone will find that OnePlus 6 to enter the APP is faster than the Black Shark. In addition to the reasons for the cutscenes, the system optimization is also very helpful. On the network side, OnePlus 6 has advantages in obtaining network data. It can be seen that its reflections will be faster than Black Shark when reading articles on the Internet, indicating that the quality of its network connections is better. The quality of the network can be very important to players. In terms of game read speed, the Xiaomi Black Shark phone is winning with a slight advantage.

The second is the application resident, because both are equipped with 8GB of large storage, plus the inevitable switching application in the game process, and the game must be resident in the background in order to give the user a smoother experience. I found that the Black Shark's background clean-up strategy is quite aggressive. On the contrary, OnePlus 6 seems relatively conservative, but for the player, perhaps OnePlus 6 memory resident forms are more in line with the needs of gamers.

Game measured data

In this session, we use the Gamebench APP to record the utilization of the two products during the game and the actual number of frames. At the same time, in order to further release the performance of the two products, all games involved in the test are enabled game mode. All picture quality is highest and all effects are turned on.

From the actual comparison point of view, under the blessing of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, the actual performance of OnePlus 6 and Black Shark mobile phones can meet the current demand for performance of mobile games. In terms of game optimization, OnePlus 6 can be said even in some important aspects of the game there are some advantages, such as network connection and game optimization, OnePlus 6 performance are quite out of expectation. In short, under the premise of having the same level of performance, the two products do not actually have a large gap in the game.

With violence, OnePlus 6 VS Black Shark -part 1

Some time ago, OnePlus 6 was officially released as the flagship product with the most interesting aspects in the first half of the year. OnePlus 6 has greatly improved in all aspects. Especially in terms of performance, under the support of Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, the performance of OnePlus 6 can be said to be quite eye-catching. Speaking of performance, I believe that many of you will think of the game phone, after all, the game for the performance of the phone is still very high. Looking at several gaming phones currently on the market, the overall configuration of OnePlus 6 is very similar to the Black Shark gaming mobile phone. Having said this, I believe that everyone will have doubts. Under the premise of carrying the same hardware, will there be a gap between the game phone and ordinary mobile phone?

Top performance duel

From the configuration point of view, both products are equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. At the same time, both of the products are versions of the 8GB+128GB storage portfolio, and the LPDDR4X+UDS2.1 portfolio is standard. It can be said that in addition to the screen and battery capacity, the two products of the OnePlus 6 and Xiaomi Black Shark mobile phones can be said to be highly consistent in their core configurations, and are therefore more comparable.

Game open speed test

Before releasing the measured data, we first tested the speed of the two products in the open game app. In this test we have selected 8 large-scale games that are currently the hottest on the market. At the same time, we have unified all the variables (the same WIFI environment, unified restart and kill the process at the same time off the game mode of the two products), in this section, we mainly tested the system optimization of the two products, the background resident optimized and built-in stored read speeds.
