Light-sensing aesthetics, discover more beauty, vivo X23 mobile phone is more than just a little bit better

On September 6, 2018, vivo released the new generation flagship phone of the X series, vivo X23, at the Beijing Yanqi Lake International Convention and Exhibition Center. Compared with the vivo NEX, which is also the flagship phone of this year with ultra-high configuration and powerful performance, the performance of X23 is not as good as that of NEX, but both the appearance and system optimization are presented with great care. If NEX is vivo's muscle, then X23 is vivo's masterpiece! To be honest, before I got the X23, I didn't think it would have such a brilliant performance, but the final facts really gave me a loud slap in the face. What did X23 conquer me? You can come and see!

Light aesthetics, creating colors with light

This time, the vivo X23 has a brand new body color, with two new colors, Phantom Purple and Phantom Night Blue. According to the official description, the vivo X23 uses a new 3D Phantom Aurora texture material, whether it is the mysterious Phantom Blue or the passionate Phantom Purple. When you hold the X23 in your hands, you will clearly feel that the back of the body will show different colors from different angles. The flowing halo changes with the change of light angle, which increases the playability of the phone. Even if you don’t use the phone, just appreciating the flow of the phone’s halo is enough to play for a long time. No matter at any angle or any position, the halo is definitely different from the last time, and the silky halo lines make people linger. The vivo X23 also uses a gradient color design this time, but the gradient design of the X23 is different from other gradient color designs on the market. The color gradient of the X23 changes with the change of the body position, and there is no obvious fixed color dividing line. This means that as long as the light changes, the X23 has unlimited body colors, which greatly avoids the problem of aesthetic fatigue of the appearance of the phone. With halo and gradient, the phone seems to be a flowing palette. Different effects can be seen when tilting or rotating it. The gradient color makes the phone diverse, and the flowing halo brings vitality to the phone. The diversity and vitality fully realize the youthful attitude and goal pursuit of X23.

Light perception aesthetics, beautiful and practical

The vivo X23 uses a water drop screen design instead of the notch screen that is popular in the market. This move allows the vivo X23 to have a larger screen display area on the front panel, thus having an extremely high screen-to-body ratio. The vivo X23 has a screen-to-body ratio of up to 91.2%. The high screen-to-body ratio allows a smaller body to "cram" a larger screen, providing a more shocking viewing experience while having a comfortable grip. The function of the water drop screen is not just this. The screen adopts the water drop screen technology, and the cutting process of the water drop screen presents a natural and elegant smart beauty. The ultra-high screen-to-body ratio and the water drop screen complement each other to achieve an unprecedented visual impact experience. How can you describe it in one word when you really use it? It seems that the machine in your hand is no longer a mobile phone, but a pure glass screen! Under this water drop screen, the X23 also hides a high-tech technology - screen fingerprint technology. According to the official introduction, the screen fingerprint technology used by vivo X23 this time is the fourth-generation photoelectric screen fingerprint technology. Compared with the previous generation of screen fingerprint technology, the fourth-generation screen fingerprint technology has a faster and more accurate recognition rate. When unlocking, it will produce a breathing effect and feel the changing light. In the subsequent actual use and experience, the recognition speed of fingerprint unlocking is very fast, and the accuracy is also quite satisfactory. It is almost comparable to the comprehensive ability of "traditional" fingerprint technology. The whole use process is very smooth! As soon as the finger touches the screen, it is unlocked immediately. This fingerprint module keeps its attention at all times. The author has tried to unlock it many times when it is "not paying attention", and the result is that it can be unlocked in seconds. At the same time, when using fingerprint payment, it is also completed instantly by touching the screen. The speed is really touch and go.

Light aesthetics, recording the beauty of life

The vivo X23 uses a rear dual-camera combination, with the main camera being a 12-megapixel IMX363 CMOS, dual-core 12-megapixel (24-megapixel photosensitive unit), equipped with Dual PD full-pixel dual-core focusing technology, and fast capture speed. The single pixel is increased to 1.4μm, which is currently only available in high-end flagship phones of various brands. This choice makes the final imaging performance of the vivo X23 very satisfactory!

Here comes the point! Pay attention! The 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera on the vivo X23 has a wide-angle field of view of up to 125°. What does 125 degrees mean? The wide-angle field of view of an ordinary camera is about 80 degrees, while the 125° wide-angle can accommodate nearly three times the content of an 80° wide-angle! The ultra-wide angle brings a new photography experience and more shooting possibilities. It can really make the content of the photo richer. In the past, mobile phones could not achieve tasks due to insufficient wide-angle field of view when taking photos. Now, with vivo's substantial improvement, it can be easily achieved.

The vivo X23 will also be equipped with a feature that is very popular among female users - the beauty camera. As the name suggests, the beauty camera allows you to "adjust your body proportions at will" during the initial photo shooting process without the need for post-production PS. If you want a beautiful figure, why bother? Just "swipe" to do it! The vivo X23 beauty camera will make you look like a star in any photo! Long legs, slim waist, golden ratio, one photo will dominate the circle of friends!

vivo's photography continues to lead in one area, that is backlit photography! And this time, vivo X23 has upgraded its backlit photography! X23's super backlight technology will automatically identify indoor or outdoor scenes based on the surrounding ambient light. When indoors, X23 will automatically detect and identify the best amount of light, overcome the shadows caused by the backlight as much as possible, improve the brightness of details, and restore everything in the shooting environment to the greatest extent. In outdoor environments with severe backlighting, super backlighting technology will automatically retain the highlights and shadows in the picture, restore more details, and make the final image richer and more realistic. Super backlighting technology will pay special attention to the backlighting of the face, which is not only clearly visible, but can even restore the facial gloss to the greatest extent, so that you will be beautiful at all times!

Finally, let's talk about system applications. Vivo has invested a lot in mobile phone research and development in recent years, both in hardware and software. On the vivo X23, vivo has created the vivo Dual Turbo dual-turbo engine that fully stimulates the performance of software and hardware! In conjunction with vivo's global R&D center, it took two years to modify the real Android underlying core module by nearly 20%! This is something that ordinary manufacturers cannot do, and finally got the first turbine of the vivo Dual-Turbo dual-turbo acceleration engine-vivo System Turbo. With the support of System Turbo, the speed of grabbing red envelopes on WeChat has increased by 40%! The fluency of mainstream applications (such as WeChat, news, browsers, etc.) has increased by an astonishing 100%! The anti-frame drop capability of mainstream games (Glory of the King, Chicken Eating, etc.) has also increased by 100%! Under strong stress testing, the game's anti-slow jamming ability has increased by 300%! In the actual experience of the game, we can clearly feel that with extremely high picture effects, vivo X23 can still run the game perfectly and smoothly, and the gaming experience is excellent! When I was playing with my best friend, X23 seemed to have occupied other people's internet speed. Even when the network conditions were relatively unstable, the system could still make adjustments to prioritize stabilizing the smoothness of the game, without frame drops or freezes. Between each shot, I could enjoy the excitement of the game.

vivo became the first mobile phone manufacturer in China to cooperate with the game engine Unreal Engine, and worked together with Tencent Game Lab and NetEase Game Lab to obtain the second turbo of vivo Dual-Turbo - vivo Game turbo. This technology can help vivo X23 schedule resources in advance, greatly speed up the loading and running speed of games, while reducing the performance diversion caused by other background software, giving gamers a comfortable competitive experience. The author started the Stimulating Battlegrounds at the same time on several mobile phones with the same background application. Not only was the loading speed the fastest, but it was also the most stable during game operation and had the highest average frame rate. With such a satisfactory system adjustment and a smooth experience, wouldn't it be easy to get the final outcome of eating chicken!

In fact, before I got the vivo X23, I was not very confident about it. After all, the performance of the vivo NEX was too strong, and I was worried that vivo would overdo it on the NEX, which would lead to the lack of stamina of the X23. As it turns out, I really thought too much. The comprehensive upgrade and innovation of vivo in the X23 really made users, including me, shine. Whether it is the upgrade breakthrough of the appearance, the use of the water drop screen, or the rapid improvement of the camera level, it shows the efforts vivo has put into this X23. The installation of the vivo Dual Turbo dual-turbo engine has largely made up for the performance gap between the X23 and the NEX, and the system optimization is excellent! Coupled with the large storage space of the standard 8GB RAM + 128 GB ROM, the performance of the vivo Dual Turbo dual-turbo engine is completely released. The vivo X23 is a work with both attitude and grace. It will be available for reservation on the vivo official website and offline experience stores, or online platforms such as JD.com, Suning.com, and Tmall. It will be officially released at 0:00 on September 14. As for the price issue of vivo X23 that everyone is most concerned about, the 8+128GB version is priced at 3,498 yuan.
