ZTE "Big Q" experience review: 1,000 yuan 4G can also be unique
|
In the increasingly competitive thousand-yuan smartphone market, domestic mobile phone manufacturers are doing their best to find highlights for their products, whether in terms of hardware parameters or system advantages. On March 19, ZTE and China Unicom joined forces to release the "Big Q" Q801U, a thousand-yuan mobile terminal customized based on Unicom's 4G network. So far, thousand-yuan smartphones have also stepped onto the 4G fast lane, and the support for 4G high-speed mobile networks has become a new breakthrough for domestic high-cost-effective mobile phones. The design style is plain, with a finishing touch . From the front, the design of the Big Q is still the mainstream style of the models on sale in the world. The rounded corners of the body and the metal texture bright strips on the side are similar to the Samsung Galaxy S series products to a certain extent, but the advantage of such a rounded design is that the machine is more comfortable to hold in the hand, and it also makes the 5-inch screen Big Q look smaller. The side button design of the machine is also very user-friendly. The power button on the right side is just where the right thumb fingertips hold the phone, and the volume button is on the other side of the body. Whether it is unlocking the screen or taking screenshots of the Android system, this button layout is very easy to operate. Compared with the plain front, the back design of the Big Q is quite brilliant. It adopts the starry sky bright block design of Google's "four princes" Nexus4. From different angles, the back cover of the phone is dotted with stars, which is very unique. However, the removable back cover of the Big Q is not made of glass like the Nexus4, but a relatively low-cost polished plastic. So to be precise, the visual perception of this back is closer to the derivative product of the Nexus4, the LG Optimus G, which also uses a plastic back cover. If combined with the hollow speaker opening at the bottom of the back cover like the traditional Chinese window design, the Big Q expresses a "Chinese style" flavor in design, and it still looks very distinctive. Therefore, from the appearance point of view, based on the positioning of 1,000 yuan, although the design of Big Q cannot completely get rid of the influence of other products and be sufficiently innovative, under the premise of cost considerations, while ensuring that the overall workmanship of the mobile phone meets the standards, it can also inject distinctive design elements into the product in small details. I believe that it can still win the aesthetic favor of some consumers. The system tends to be native, integrating its own characteristics . The system version of Big Q is Android 4.3, and the overall interface style and operation logic are close to native Android. From a certain perspective, for parameter configurations that are not high-level, eliminating redundant UI elements also reduces the burden of system operation on hardware. In daily use, the system shows good operational fluency, and the system has performed secondary beautification operations on most application icons. The square icons with flat design look more integrated, and the increased touch area is also easier to operate. Surprisingly, some of the built-in basic applications in the system have also been improved twice. For example, the system's built-in browser is not much different from third-party browsers in terms of operation mode and loading speed, and it also supports online updates, which fully meets the Internet needs of general users. The video player also adds gesture operation, swiping left and right to change the progress, swiping up and down to adjust the volume, which are also the operations people are used to on third-party players. In addition, the system has also added some unique small features, such as the "Screen Assistant" will generate a floating button above the operation interface, which can be clicked to expand for common operations such as "return" and "multi-task switching". Although it is not very meaningful for mobile phones without virtual buttons, this button of Changan will quickly call out a shortcut menu containing functions such as "restart", "mute", and "screenshot", which is still very useful for daily use. Mainstream hardware performance, 4G network outstanding The 5-inch display screen used by the big Q has a resolution of 854×480, and the PPI of 195 is naturally barely enough in terms of display fineness, but fortunately, the color of the screen is soft, and the non-full-fitting process will only cause a slight color cast when watching in the dead corner at the top of the screen, which will not affect the user's daily use. In addition, it is a bit regrettable that although the touch buttons below the screen have backlight, the backlight will only light up after operation in a dark environment. Although this setting may be for power saving considerations, it also makes the original intention of facilitating user operation meaningless and slightly inconvenient to use. The machine uses a quad-core Cortex-A7 architecture Qualcomm Snapdragon processor with a main frequency of 1.2Ghz, supplemented by 1G capacity running memory and Adreno305 graphics processor, and the hardware level is quite satisfactory. In the test, due to the mature compatibility of Qualcomm processors on the Android platform, there is no problem running some casual 3D games, and 1080P high-definition videos can also be played perfectly, fast forward and rewind without lag. For the positioning of the big Q, such performance can basically meet the daily needs of the target users. In terms of camera imaging, the big Q is equipped with a front 300,000-pixel and rear 5-megapixel lens combination, and the camera interface also adopts the Android native style. The overall experience is not outstanding. Fortunately, the machine does not castrate the LED fill light, and the "flashlight" function is still very useful in daily life. The network standard is a highlight of the Big Q. As a 4G mobile terminal customized with China Unicom, the machine is compatible with TD-LTE and FDD-LTE 4G networks, and supports WCDMA and GSM 3G/2G network standards. It can switch freely in the 3G/4G network environment, ensuring the user's high-speed mobile Internet experience while enhancing the regional coverage of the network. In the future, the machine will also be sold in the form of contracts in combination with Unicom's super-value 4G packages, further lowering the threshold for users to experience 4G networks. Summary There is no doubt that although ZTE has not given the Big Q an impressive hardware level, as a smartphone product focusing on the Internet experience, from this experience, the system operation is smooth, both inside and outside have highlights, and it is still a practical personal terminal product. In the future, the Q series may also become another smartphone product line of ZTE focusing on high-speed Internet experience. With the continuous popularization of 4G networks in the future and the deepening of cooperation with 4G operators such as China Unicom, as a mobile high-speed Internet terminal at the thousand-yuan level, ZTE Big Q still has good market potential. As a winner of Toutiao's Qingyun Plan and Baijiahao's Bai+ Plan, the 2019 Baidu Digital Author of the Year, the Baijiahao's Most Popular Author in the Technology Field, the 2019 Sogou Technology and Culture Author, and the 2021 Baijiahao Quarterly Influential Creator, he has won many awards, including the 2013 Sohu Best Industry Media Person, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Beijing Third Place, the 2015 Guangmang Experience Award, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Finals Third Place, and the 2018 Baidu Dynamic Annual Powerful Celebrity. |
