Take you into a new era of beauty photography. Gionee S8 is the first to experience.

In the new year of IT 168 evaluation, new products in the mobile phone circle emerge one after another, once again setting off blood shed. As one of the most concerned domestic brands, Gionee has naturally become the target of media crazy tracking after the success of M5 Plus and other products launched last year. On the 22nd of this month, Gionee officially launched its first representative new machine, Gionee S8, at the MWC 20 16 conference in Barcelona, Spain, and we also got the engineering prototype of the machine at the first time and had a first-hand experience.

As we all know, S series is the ultimate design series of Gionee. In that year, the world's thinnest mobile phone Gionee S5. 1 and other star products were launched. Therefore, it is not difficult to foresee that as a new member of the Gionee family, Gionee S8 will inevitably continue the family style in design, which is worth seeing.

One: the ultimate design

The front of Gionee S8 is equipped with a 5.5-inch Samsung AMOLED screen with the narrowest frame in the world, with a resolution of 1920* 1080 pixels. The measured narrow edge is only 0.725mm, and the single-sided narrow frame is only 2.59mm, which is enough to impress the whole industry. This also makes Gionee S8 shrink to 5.2 inches on the premise of a 5.5-inch screen.

The surface of Gionee S8 screen is covered with a layer of 2.5D curved glass, which greatly enhances the impression. On the top of the phone is a traditional distance/light sensor, an earpiece and a front-mounted 800W pixel camera, while the bottom of the screen is equipped with a runway-shaped fingerprint recognition button. The fingerprint module can directly use Alipay for fingerprint payment.

On the other hand, the back adopts the popular integrated metal body design, and the back of the whole machine is made of magnesium-aluminum alloy, which feels very solid. The same mobile phone is made of metal, and the ugly "leucorrhea" design on iPhone 6s and HTC M9 is gone on Gionee S8. Why?

▲ Gionee S8

As we know, because metal materials will block the transmission and reception of mobile phone signals, most all-metal mobile phones need to reserve one or more plastic antenna strips to ensure signal overflow. The reason why Gionee can cancel the leucorrhea under the premise of using the metal fuselage is because it specially designs a loop antenna around the rear fuselage. In this way, its antenna can not only be completely integrated into the color of the fuselage to achieve monochrome effect, but also bring better signal transceiving ability due to the substantial increase in antenna volume. This loop antenna design on the back of Gionee S8 is likely to become the next industry trend.

Two: Beauty video

Since it is the main "beauty photography era", it is inevitable that there will be highlights that girls like. Gionee S8 rear lens is equipped with the world's first RWB sensor, provided by Samsung, and the model is S5K3P3, 1600W pixel RWB sensor. Compared with the photos taken by previous RGB technology models, the noise reduction ability is improved by 80%, the details are better, the sensitivity is improved by 40%, and the area is reduced by 23%, so that you can get more light with a smaller mirror volume of the rear camera, and then match it with a high F/.

Gionee S8 is also the world's first mobile phone equipped with RWB sensor. In order to focus faster, S8 has added PDAF and laser ultrafast dual focusing system, and the focusing speed can reach 2.5 times. In addition, the real-time beauty camera function is added, and the full skin beauty is turned on by default. In other words, it is no longer just polishing and whitening facial skin, but beautifying the whole body skin, which perfectly solves the needs of girls who love selfies.

Thanks to excellent hardware configuration and optimization, Gionee S8 shortened the start-up time of the camera to 700ms and the photographing time to 400ms, much faster than that of the iPhone 6s. This also makes the camera actually open to take pictures, without the obvious sense of hysteresis before, which can be said to be a perfect interpretation of "what you see is what you shoot".

In order to make it easier for girls to take selfies, Gionee S8 also provides functions such as pre-selfie fill light, video real-time beauty, and 8-level beauty photos. At this time, you may be surprised that Gionee S8 is not equipped with a front flash. How to fill the light? It turns out that when you turn on the fill light function and press the shutter button, the screen will instantly turn bright white and flash, and the face will be filled with the light from the screen itself, so that although the brightness is not as high as that of the flash, it is softer and you can take a better-looking selfie.

Gionee S8 has also added the function of slow-motion photography, which can show the slow process of high-speed motion by shooting movies at high frame rate. Corresponding to this function, a time-lapse photography function is added, and the shot picture is accelerated by video frame extraction. S8 also developed a video editing function. Theme video provides six sets of one-click theme video templates, and users can directly and automatically generate personalized short videos by simply adding the captured videos. Professional editors provide more custom fun, such as cutting and transition animation. , and meet the needs of users for video clips in a personalized way.

Gionee S8 takes beautiful photos of girls through powerful and sophisticated algorithms, but unlike other brands of mobile phones, it can be said that it has won the hearts of women. In addition, Gionee S8 also supports fun video shooting, professional video editing, slow-motion and time-lapse photography, which greatly enhances the playability and plasticity of the shooting function. Let's take a look at several samples of construction machines to feel it:

Three: 3D touch is more practical.

As a New Year's masterpiece, Gionee S8 also uses the same 3D touch screen as iPhone 6s, which is different from Huawei Mate S's gimmick function. It is a solution that can redefine the human-computer interaction experience of Android phones. Practical use, including tapping preview, re-pressing to open, sliding up and quickly operating gallery, SMS and contacts; Press the desktop application with your finger to pop up a shortcut menu; Press the side of the phone to quickly open commonly used custom applications; The dynamic combination of pressure and wallpaper realizes the matching of pressure and action speed, which is very natural and obvious, and it is very emotional to use.

The driving force of all this comes from Gionee's latest amigoOS 3.2 based on Android 6.0, application service layer optimization 1039, system interface layer optimization 156, and system management layer optimization 97. The overall system performance is more stable and smooth. AmigoOS 3.2 perfectly inherits the features of Android 6.0, which is more power-saving, smoother, and can automatically clean up memory garbage and alleviate system jam. Speaking of amigoOS 3.2, there is another function that interests me, that is, supporting WeChat double opening. Simply tap the WeChat icon to open the WeChat avatar. This means that there will be a better solution to the problem that two WeChat accounts have to log in with two devices in the past, and with Gionee S8, it will be faster, more accurate and more embarrassing to double-open the micro-signal to grab the red envelope in the future.

Four: the ultra-low price of going abroad to surf the Internet.

In addition, Gionee S8 has inherited the functions of overseas assistants and positive fingerprint recognition, which is recognized as the best experience, and will also be carried on the S8. The former can support users to quickly purchase call and traffic packages of overseas destinations, which can greatly reduce travel costs and troubles. Since then, the flagship mobile phone that wants high value has finally got the perfect choice.

In addition, it has to be mentioned that Gionee S8 has dual main cards and dual 4G network system functions, supports VoLTE high-definition calling and Cat.6 standard carrier aggregation technology, and can bring 40% higher voice quality than 2G and 3G, close to zero dropped call rate and up to 300Mb/s downlink rate. It supports the networks of 50 major communication operators in the world, such as mobile/telecom/China Unicom, and has 16 domestic and foreign frequency bands. You can also switch card slot and memory card expansion freely, which is absolutely humanized and quite popular with people who go abroad in the editorial department.

Five: Top Hardware Blessing

In addition to excellent design and software experience, Gionee S8 is also the flagship configuration in terms of hardware. CPU adopts MediaTek Helio P 10 processor, which is the main model introduced by MediaTek this year. It has eight A53 cores and the main frequency is as high as 2GHz. With such strong performance and up to 4GB of running memory, Gionee S8 is excellent at playing large games and multitasking.

Gionee S8 also inherited Gionee's consistent "super endurance" capability, equipped with a large battery of 3000mAh, and supported 9V/2A high-current fast charging technology. With system-level power control such as "green background", "extreme power saving" and "GPU animation optimization", Gionee S8 can definitely be called the industry leader in battery life. In actual use, Gionee S8 can be used moderately for 2 days.

Summary:

It is difficult to find innovation highlights in the current mobile phone industry. Upgrading other brands is a bit like changing medicine. However, only S8 can make people feel the long-lost expectation, which is already a success in itself. Whether it is the unique design of loop antenna or the addition of 3D Touch, we intuitively feel the intention of Jinli, a product manufacturer. Generally speaking, Gionee S8 is a flagship mobile phone with both internal and external repairs, so we should pay more attention to it.
