This article is the original article on the evaluation of black cats. The pollen
who defected
was first published in Toutiao. Thanks to Huawei nova6 5G provided by Toutiao. After a week of experience, I wrote this evaluation report for consumers' reference.
The first mobile phone in my life was the Honor V8 I bought in my freshman year, and then I used the iPhone 5S, only to realize that the smart phone can be so smooth. Many people say that almost everyone of the older generation of digital enthusiasts is a fan, and they are full of prejudice against Android phones. There is nothing wrong with
. The iPhone has been ahead of Android phones for so many years. We just respect the facts. Don't forget , iPhone gives consumers a smooth system, but it also has many disadvantages: battery life, fast charging is not satisfactory, single card and single standby.
Huawei is smart in that it avoids the shortcomings of the Android system, and uses a differentiated strategy to start with cameras, battery life, fast charging, and network signals to win the favor of consumers who hate iPhones. . Times have changed, and several years have passed, and the fundamental logic behind Huawei’s product creation has not changed- has turned the iPhone’s shortcomings into its own strengths.
This is the biggest difference between Huawei and other domestic manufacturers. Other manufacturers are just going back to Apple's old road, and Huawei was looking for another angle from the beginning to surpass Apple. Looking back, every change in the Huawei mobile phone in the past few years has actually been very specific-such as dual card dual standby dual communication, dual camera, large battery, camera, fast charging, artificial intelligence, etc... With OPPO as its opponent,
can only become the next Vivo at most; with Xiaomi as its opponent, at most it can only become the next Redmi; Huawei with Apple as its opponent, the worst result can at least knock down Samsung. Vivo X30 and OPPO Reno3 Pro can only be called competing products. Only the iPhone is Huawei's only imaginary enemy. I only understand the truth of
now.
Strategic transformation of Huawei's nova series
Huawei's nova series is the main offline model. In just one year, its strategic transformation is extremely huge. I will help you recall.
Huawei nova4, released in December 2018, uses a single punch screen, Kirin 970, 3750 mAh battery, 18W fast charge, and starts at 3099 yuan.
The Huawei nova5, released in June 2019, uses a water drop screen, Kirin 810, up to 40W fast charge, 3500 mAh battery, and starts at 2799 yuan. The enhanced version of Huawei nova5 Pro uses the Kirin 980 chip, and other configurations are exactly the same. One mid-to-high-end and one high-end.
By December 2019, Huawei's nova6 directly used the Kirin 990 flagship chip, without a "mid-range phone", and the 4G version started at 3199 yuan. Huawei nova6 5G is equipped with Kirin 990+ external Barong 5000 baseband, dual-perforated LCD screen, 40W fast charge + 4200 mAh, rear IMX600 Sony sensor, up to 40 million pixels, and the front camera DXO score is the world's first.
In the case of little price changes, Huawei's nova series was the "old flagship" that cleared inventory a year ago, and it was upgraded to "mid-to-high-end" in mid-2019. Today, Huawei's nova6 series has completely transformed into a 5G flagship that can stand alone. It is positioned second only to Huawei's true machine king Mate and P series, and there is no mid-range machine.
The pricing of Huawei's nova6 series is relatively reasonable. With the catalyst of 5G baseband, it can be sold even through e-commerce channels. It is foreseeable that as information becomes more and more transparent on , mobile phone manufacturers will have to find a delicate balance between cost-effectiveness and brand premium-the phenomenon of online and offline price inversions will no longer exist in the future .
Huawei's nova6 5G product, although it has not been on sale yet, I have experienced it for a week. From the perspective of the 3500 yuan gear position, it can be said responsibly that its overall performance meets my expectations.
double perforated screen + side fingerprint, there is a small regret
byDue to the external Baron 5000 baseband, the body thickness of Huawei nova 6 5G is as high as 8.98 mm and weighs about 212 grams, which is thicker and heavier than the 4G regular version. Its screen size is 6.57 inches, the screen ratio is 20:9, and it is slender to hold.
This is where the industrial design is tested. 212 grams sounds heavy, but due to the frame of the Huawei nova6 5G, a "flat-like" design is made instead of the popular hyperboloid arc. This design makes the fingertips have a larger area of force, and it will not be too tiring to hold.
In addition to optimizing the feel, the second function of the plane-like middle frame is to have enough width to put down side fingerprints. The capacitive fingerprint and the power button are combined into one, located in the middle frame on the right side of the fuselage, below the volume button, and relatively recessed in. When I picked up the phone, my thumb touched the fingerprint on the side naturally, very smoothly. Of course,
also has shortcomings. The shortcut command of "power button + volume button" that we used to be used to becomes inapplicable on Huawei nova6 5G. However, as a remedy, I found in the system settings that the three-finger screenshot is checked by default, which can be used as a substitute and does not affect normal use. The side fingerprints of
are obvious. The recognition rate of capacitive fingerprints is still more reliable and faster than that of under-screen fingerprints. After using fingerprints under the screen for more than a year, the most annoying thing is that the screen needs to be turned on first when unlocking at night. In case the recognition fails, the face recognition is triggered to stimulate the screen brightness, which directly brightens the eyes.
In the 5G era, side fingerprints may become a popular choice. First of all, there are too few high-quality suppliers for the A-screen, and mobile phone manufacturers are afraid of being cut off; secondly, the number of Lcd holdings is not enough, and it is not unusable; third, the fingerprints under the screen are not perfect and occupy space; most importantly That is, with the iterative upgrade of the algorithm, face unlocking (even 2D) becomes more and more reliable, and fingerprint unlocking is not used frequently.
Huawei nova6 5G uses a Tianma LCD screen with double holes in the upper left corner and extremely narrow upper and lower jaws. Thanks to the LCD screen material, its resolution is real 1080P. This screen has passed the German Rheinland Low Blu-ray certification, but the refresh rate above 90Hz is not used. Maybe Huawei is out of battery life considerations.
I played a dozen of Glory of the Kings. With the original protective film, I played a dozen of difficult-to-operate heroes such as Diaochan, Yuange, and Guan Yu. I can feel the touch of this Tianma screen. Sensitivity is very good, just like iPhone11.
The front face of Huawei nova6 5G is very high, and the side of the fuselage is also unique, and the design of the back shell is a bit "splendid". In addition to the conventional three-shot design, the bottom layer of the coating can also vaguely see the faint watermark of "nova", which is a fashion trend brand route.
To be honest, I don't particularly like the back shell design of Huawei nova6 5G, I think it is too enchanting. But after my girlfriend watched it, she said that she liked it...
Kirin 990 and 5G
Redmi K30 press conference, Lu Weibing called the Redmi K30 Pro equipped with Snapdragon 765G as the "second generation 5G mobile phone", a pair of foreigners A proud look. But as far as I know, although the Redmi K30 is the first to launch the Snapdragon 765G, the 5G version is not even available for media players. In the most optimistic situation, it will not go on sale until January (suspect).
Anyway, Kirin 990+Barong 5000 baseband, or Kirin 990 5G chip, are still the only 5G mobile phones that have been mass-produced, and the only dual-mode 5G solution that supports both NSA and SA networking. This is Huawei nova6 5G. biggest advantage. In other words, Huawei nova6 5G is a 5G phone that you don’t have to worry about being eliminated.
has one thing to say, this generation of Kirin 990 is a more conventional upgrade, not as large as the upgrade of Kirin 980, it is still 7nm process, A76 core. When the performance mode is turned on, the Antutu running score is 484862 points, which is comparable to the Snapdragon 855Plus. The CPU and AI performance are leading, but the game performance is relatively behind.
someone summed it up like this: play games to buyI buy Huawei for daily use and Snapdragon for assembly machines. This sentence is not unreasonable. Huawei's emphasis on mobile phone battery life may be the highest priority among all mobile phone manufacturers. Kirin 990 did not use the A77 core, but also for battery life considerations. When
was first activated, I found that Huawei nova6 5G defaults to "standard mode", and the King of Glory is pre-installed software. When the phone was first activated, the King of Glory was not recognized by the phone. When playing, the frame rate was bounced back and forth between 35fps and 55fps. This is also confirmed from the side. The standard mode of Huawei nova6 5G is down-frequency.
I re-verified it and re-downloaded a large-scale mobile game "Peace Elite". After installation, the system immediately recognized it and automatically added it to the game space. This leads to a conclusion that although the system defaults to frequency reduction, as long as it recognizes that it is a game, it will automatically turn on "Various Turbo" to ensure full firepower and full frame operation during the game.
Another thing I have to mention is the fluency of UFS3.0+Huawei Super File System. I did a comparative test with OnePlus 7T. With the same UFS3.0 flash memory, Huawei nova6 5G can open large games and small apps almost 0.5s faster than OnePlus 7T, which is indeed faster.
EMUI10: Wisdom and restraint
First, let’s talk about the desktop of EMUI10. Sliding up at the bottom of the lock screen is not to unlock the screen, but to call out the multi-function bar. At the beginning, it’s a bit uncomfortable; the UI design is no longer "elderly disco". What is different is that, Huawei is not a set of official themes, it takes all models, but a separate theme for a certain model. The Nova series also has its own exclusive themes, and the design is more lively; the negative screen is the place that best reflects wisdom , It uses AI to determine the functions required by the user, thereby automatically recommending the card that appears.
In addition, the full-screen gestures on EMUI10 are a bit like MIUI11, and the animation of sliding back is more "smart". The disadvantage is that the sensitivity of gestures is not enough. A very important indicator is that when you open the APP in an instant, and when you close it by sliding up in an instant, you can feel that the UI response speed cannot keep up with the touch, which makes it appear a bit blunt. Not as easy as MIUI11.
is the most frequently used daily operation. The importance of full-screen gestures is self-evident. We look forward to subsequent improvements.
In the last evaluation, I experienced MIUI11 of Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro in depth, and finally gave up on "one-click advertising". It is impossible to play cost-effective without advertising. On the premise that there is no profit support, it is an anti-human thing to expect mobile phone manufacturers not to have bad money.
EMUI10 gives me the feeling that I am very restrained in advertising. I have basically experienced the system-level APP. I have not found any advertising spots with third-party advertisements. The only flaw is that a news module is inserted in the negative screen. .
But if you say that EMUI10 has achieved 100% restraint, it is not necessarily because EMUI10 is pre-installed with a lot of system-level software, many of which are useless, but fortunately, you can uninstall it. Its logic is this. Huawei basically takes into account the functions it should have, and then relies on its own ecological services to make money (such as video information flow, novel resources, cloud services, introduction of music copyright, etc.) instead of relying on planting. Earn money from third-party advertising.
users can accept and like to use, then leave this APP, and uninstall the APP if you can’t accept it. This is a business you wish. What I hate most is that certain Internet mobile phone manufacturers always want to make some money that is not their own. As a hardware manufacturer, since it doesn't provide any services, why should we squeeze consumers' wool for free? We won’t name names here, because the situation is too common.
comes back again, not to abuse the placement of advertising, to ensure a green APP ecology, this is what a large manufacturer of Huawei should do. In the Huawei App Market, I also saw the apps pushed on the homepage, most of which have a "Software Green Alliance Certification" label.
Popular science, the original name of "Software Green Alliance Certification" is Android Green Alliance, certified apps must comply with green development specifications, which forces developers to completely solve Android ARogue behaviors such as PP background self-starting and secretly occupying CPU resources can effectively reduce the freezing phenomenon of domestic Android phones.
I am very happy that Huawei is doing this and spare no effort. There is also news that the domestic Android unified push alliance will soon become popular. If this continues, domestic mobile phones may not have no hope of surpassing the iPhone, wait and see.
camera experience, with some proofs
Huawei nova6 5G's front camera is Sony IMX616, with up to 32 million pixels, it has won the title of DXO world's number one, it is the world's strongest selfie camera and supports 4K 30 fps recording of small videos. There is also an 8-megapixel 105° ultra-wide-angle camera, which can trigger multi-person selfies, multi-person beauty...
Emmm, maybe girls are more concerned about these, I will not repeat it as a straight man. The main camera of
still uses RYYB super-sensitive sensor, Sony IMX600 sensor, 1/1.7-inch outsole; the secondary camera is an 8-megapixel telephoto lens that supports 3x optical zoom and 30x digital zoom; the second camera is 800 The megapixel wide-angle lens supports 120-degree super wide-angle.
In addition, the Huawei nova6 5G camera has another advantage. When shooting videos, the anti-shake effect is very outstanding. I take photos while walking. The image's anti-shake effect is the same as a handheld stabilizer. There is no jitter in the whole process. It is a Vlog artifact. Below
are samples of engineering machines. The pictures are compressed by the platform and do not represent the original image quality, but can reflect the color adjustment effect (automatic mode).
Brand value
Many people compare Honor V30 and Huawei nova6 5G. Let me tell you the truth. Huawei's nova series is positioned as an offline model. It is cost-effective to talk about the price without the brand value. If you compare it with the Honor V30, it is tantamount to playing rogue.
A 32GB memory stick for 1000 yuan, Apple affixed a brand, called the official certification memory stick, dare to sell it at a premium of 4 times, which is called "brand value."
The popularity of Huawei mobile phones, the restraint of the EMUI10 system, and the after-sales service outlets that can be seen everywhere offline are also called brand value.
If the full score is 100 points, I would give Apple a score of 90, Huawei’s score of 80, and Xiaomi’s score of 65. The hardware configuration determines the comprehensive experience of a product, but the brand value determines its "carrying capacity".
is cost-effective and easy to obtain, but the brand value needs a long time to precipitate, and it also has a well-known reputation and self-developed technology. If the Xiaomi Mi 9Pro 5G was made by Huawei, Huawei would dare to mass-produce it immediately and open the spot for purchase because it can definitely be sold.
Some chili sauce is just chili sauce, and some chili sauce is called "Laoganma". Huawei's achievements in the field of 5G communications are obvious to all, and no one will doubt Huawei's 5G strength.
The core selling point of Huawei's nova6 5G is not just 5G at all, but the "triple authority certification" of Huawei+5G+ offline physical stores. This credibility is the most difficult to shake.
Before writing this article, I specially asked my relatives around me. They are generally waiting for 5G mobile phones, and as long as they are new 5G mobile phones from Huawei, they are willing to buy them if the price is not too expensive-the general feedback is such.
Please note that I am located in a small second-tier city, where there are few young people, and mobile phone sales are basically based on offline physical stores. Like my parents’ generation, those born in the 60s and 70s who don’t trust online shopping are mainstream consumers. .
So, I think even though the Redmi K30 5G has smashed the price to 1999 yuan, the offline market will not help. To be honest, many consumers will not care whether you are plug-in 5G baseband or 5G integrated baseband, and the download speed. 5G is like an exquisite packaging box, but it allows consumers to spend money more comfortably. When will
5G come? This is not important, sooner or later.
But now who dares to buyWhat about 4G phones? This is the biggest problem.
I can only say that Huawei nova6 5G, which has captured all the pain points of target customers, is destined to be a generation of offline explosions, and there is no suspense.
High Energy Evaluation Group | Questions and Answers about Fans
Q: Will you get it soon? Where did your machine come from.
Answer: Thanks again for the public test activity from Toutiao Digital Channel today.
asked: The 5G mobile phones on the market are generally above 200 grams, I am worried that it will not be acceptable.
Answer: After the actual experience, I personally think this is a hand feel that can be used to, because the frame of the fuselage is not a hyperboloid, and the finger contact area is relatively large, so it will not be difficult to pick up.
Q: I saw the slide gesture of Huawei nova6 when I saw it in the offline experience store. I felt that the reaction was slow. Is it a system problem?
Answer: It is not a system problem. The gestures will respond only after the finger leaves the screen. This is the first time you use Huawei and you are not used to gesture operations.
Q: The battery capacity is 4200 mAh. Is it enough for heavy use once a day? Will the external 5000 baseband be affected?
Answer: In performance mode, after three hours of partial discharge test of "Geek Run Points 4", 26% of the power was lost. In standard mode, battery life will be better, and one charge per day is enough. In addition, the external baseband has a negligible impact on power consumption. Apple has been an external baseband for many years.
Q: Is the flash memory of Huawei nova6 5G UFS3.0?
Answer: Yes, the continuous reading speed is 1451.72MB/s, and the random reading speed is 213.25MB/s, which is a proper UFS3.0 level.
Q: Are there stereo speakers? How is the sound effect when watching the video?
Answer: I confirmed that there is only a single speaker.
asked: Should I buy the 4G version now, or the Huawei nova6 5G? Hope to give a purchase suggestion.
Answer: First-tier and new first-tier cities give priority to buying Huawei nova6 5G. After all, 5G will be commercialized soon. Girls who have demanding hand feelings, third-tier cities and other places where 5G is not popularized so quickly, can buy the 4G version, which weighs only 197 grams.
asked: Is there a protective case for the phone?
A: The package comes with a clear water shell, but it feels very ordinary, and it is a bit greasy after two days... It is recommended to purchase
separately. Q: Does the support support reverse charging?
Answer: Huawei nova6 series does not have a wireless charging coil, only the Honor V30 supports it.
Q: Will the perforated screen affect playing games?
Answer: No. Goose Factory’s game has made a lot of optimizations for digging screen phones. Now the game interface will not be blocked by digging, such as the glory of the king.
Q: How big is the difference between Honor V30 Pro and Huawei nova6 5G?
Answer: I just took the Honor V30 Pro. Objectively speaking, the difference is really big. First of all, the coating of the fuselage is not at the same level. The gloss of the back shell of Huawei nova6 5G is dreamlike, and the aesthetics of the Honor V30 may still stay in 2018. year.
In addition, Huawei mobile phone wallpapers are specially customized, the pre-installed themes are different, and they are not universal between models, please see the picture. On the left is Huawei nova6 5G. It can be seen that even the quality of the wallpaper is different from the world. If you have more questions about
, you can leave a message in the comment area and I will answer when you see it.
