I am a person who has a carelessness and carelessness. In the past two years, it is worthwhile to buy. If you don’t want to bring it over, you’ll have to write one week, seven or eight thousand words, and dozens of times. Zhang map, word repeatedly revised. Every time I see the number of big gods who have hundreds of original words, I can't help but admire, but if I have to write for a long time. Two years later, I got another chance to face the test. In the face of high hopes, I had to find ways to increase the speed of the article.

Second, some idle articles
I think it's necessary to talk about my history of playing smart phones because it was the most interesting thing that has accompanied me for many years.
Once, "smartphone" is still a new vocabulary, far less popular than it is today, and my first smart phone is the Nokia 7650, in a sense the world's first mass-produced smartphone, the S60 first. Version, not scalable, less than 10MB of running memory, but a good platform and Nokia's brand appeal should not be underestimated, with alien advertising, s60 hot rapidly swept the world, allowing people to see stronger than java software and games Many s60 software platforms.
Around 2002, with the expansion of Saipan system, another software giant Microsoft is not unwilling to be lonely, launched a pocket-based mobile smart phone operating system based on the traditional pocket PC, and a non-touch smartphone system. Palm os, hit s60, but the problems of Microsoft's system software slag also continued from then until now, Dopod 686,696, until 818,828 ~ ~ ~ ~ C858, etc., I have dabbled, but never used as the only one mobile phone However, reliability and stability have always been difficult to compare with s60.
Palm os, moto-dominated linux, blackberry and so on systems also have their own world because of their own characteristics. At that time, the smart phone industry, each player is very characteristic, but also have fatal flaws, the Warring States Period Lasted for nearly a decade, until Apple, Google and the two giants to wear a sword for ten years, idling out with the ios and android, draw a rule from the river, ironically, when the android is s60 as the imaginary enemy developed, and to the birth, Only in the past nine years has the two rivals become more and more like each other, and they have also become more and more perfect. I, as a veteran from both the G1 and iPhone 4GB generation 4GB models, started to work at that moment. Put other systems behind you.
Android phones have been used for many years. The huge gap between ios and ios in the early years has been continuously bridged by the continuous improvement of hardware capabilities, and in many respects, there has been a lot of go-ahead and crushing. There are many examples, not to mention here.
As the iron powder worthy of purchase for many years, not many people participated in the test, and this time, in the absence of any original mobile phone type, it stood out from more than 2,300 applicants and was fortunate to receive the opportunity to test Huawei Huawei's Meman 5. Inevitably, they feel that they are favored by the lord and are not neglected. They have already prepared for the full sincerity and plan to show their talents.
Third, out of the box, appearance, workmanship
A week's business trip, when the most unhappy, there must be a courier at home waiting for their own time! Originally, it was full of joy that he expected to reach the hand before departure. Unexpectedly, Huawei handed over the mobile phone to buy it too late. When it took off with the SF machine, I just left home. This miss is a week.
The most important task for the returnee busy with the task is to look at my McMans 5, uh, this carton is full of "threshold value", bright and bright! Hurry out of the box, the packaging of the foam bag wrapped on the phone is worth buying, full of test requirements, not the focus, I skipped here.
Tearless open jackets, khaki-colored mobile phone cases are unveiled in a low-key manner. The quasi-kraft-like packaging is the design method used by domestic mobile phone brands in recent years. Xiaomi, Huawei, Lenovo, etc. On the mid-end models.
There are seals on both sides of the box, but there is no film, this means can effectively prevent the dealer secondary packaging.
The top cover is the words of wheatgrass, logo and fearless growth of slogan. The design is quite in line with my taste.
In the four-way diagram, it is worth mentioning that the white stickers relating to the product parameters are all "XX", the engineering machine is no doubt, and it has been meticulously packaged (it should be the same level of retail sales). Foreshadowing.
On the backside, basic information such as Huawei's company address is provided.
Open the packaging, the sense of damping is loose, lift the cover, the box will not be brought up, suitable for quick opening.
The Wheatman 5 mobile phone is wrapped in a plastic case and lies quietly in the groove on the right side of the box. The left side is blank.
Continue to open, ear plugs, data lines, charging head lying in the small box below, and the right rectangular box is doing it?
Can you imagine? Its only purpose is to carry the phone card card pin!
Accessories details map:
The data line is very solid, and it feels better than the iPhone. The banding method is very similar.
Earplugs look like earpods.
Charging head, standard Huawei 5V2A charging head, no surprises.
Host:
Peel off the coat, let us look at wheatman 5 body
2.5D glass covers the upper and lower golden edges. Soft touch and strong consistency
On the back, from top to bottom are: camera and flash, fingerprint identification device, Huawei logo, wheat logo, product model.
Side to take the body, look at a circle, the metal cutting process is good, continuing the good workmanship level of mate8.
The border of the camera is prominent, and the border will inevitably wear out after a long time. The single camera lens will be protected.
Fourth, the system basic experience
1. Boot, can't wait!
For the first time, the two-minute long google icon screen almost made me think it crashed.
The first time feels that the black effect of the screen is good.
Google is Android, this is not so long, it is half a minute.
Huawei ancestral EMUI startup screen
There are two ways to choose a language. Traditional Chinese is a kind of meaning that applies to Hong Kong and Taiwan.
If you choose Simplified Chinese, the applicable areas are Mainland China and Singapore. I think this design is a bit embarrassing. What if I want to use Simplified Chinese overseas?
Wifi link selection, only support WiFi 802.11 b/g/n 2.4GHZ, slightly less.
Accept various product agreements, registered members, cloud services, etc.
Graphic, password unlock settings.
Fingerprint lock settings, here to focus on that, although the wheatman 5 fingerprint device is on the back, but it is very easy, the index finger is very natural to touch on the above, but also because it is on the back, if you use the thumb, it will be very awkward. Recognition speed, high success rate.
At this point, the basic initial boot setting is completed.
2. There are 3GB+32GB standard version and 4GB+64GB high version version of the wheatman 5, in the public test, it is worth buying to also specify that the participating in the test is the standard version. After getting it, you must urgently confirm it again. As a result, it was found that the machine was an engineering version that was not visible on the outside. After booting, I went straight to the local machine and saw such amazing information:
Hardware information is processor only 1.2GHZ, ram only 2GB, rom actually only 8GB, a look at the phone model is ANT-AL10, this is not right, ah, 5 models should be considered MMA-AL10 ah. Scared to death baby, is it at hand this is an antique cell phone wearing a McMans 5 coat? Is Huawei and Worth buying wrong?
Then God, I think, this is a engineering machine. Will this information be a disguise?
Quickly try to download Master Lu and Ann Bunny. After several failed attempts including the official software market, I have determined that this engineering machine has been restricted by Huawei from installing the popular running software. It is estimated that it was during the period of internal testing. Confidentiality. Unfortunately, after the official listing, these remaining engineering machines have not been lifted.
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Here, we emphasize that the limit of the engineering version of the machine has been solved, and it is called a standard high-distribution retail version. The specific method and results of the run test are shown at the end of this article!
! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Speaking of configuration, it is interesting that this is not actually a standard version. What I got was actually a high version.
We can see from the system's storage device information, the total external storage space is 53.13GB, ram 3.4GB, no doubt with high identification. I was still quite surprised, but unfortunately Master Lu and An Bunny could not run.
In addition, this engineering machine rom is also customized, the retail version of Emmanuel 5 is emui 4.1 version, and this engineering machine is still 3.1, and not ota upgrade (should and Huawei renamed him from MLA-AL10 ANT- AL10-related), the current version of the original factory rom not found online, it is estimated that the future line brush can become an ordinary retail version.
3. Endurance performance
The endurance performance is a major selling point of Huawei's effort to publicize when it is listed. Xiaolong 625, 4GB+64GB, 5.5-inch 1080p screen, relatively thin body, does not seem to be able to support a non-ordinary endurance performance, even if the 3340mah battery capacity is not an exaggeration, did not expect the actual performance is greatly out of my expectation.
This Maimeng 5 completed the first charge after I arrived. In the past week, I have just used JD.com mobile phone cards that have just upgraded Unicom's 4G network. Basically, there are no telephones and text messages, but data communication is open throughout the entire time. Indiscriminate use, more than a week, there are still 24
% of electricity. Of course, my main mobile phone is not him, but my other mobile phone is pure standby and it is far from this ability! !
4. Network performance
The multi-frequency band of the whole network is the standard of the current mid-range and above mobile phones. Maiman 5 is no exception. The supported network system is as follows:
TD-LTE/FDD-LTE/TD-SCDMA/WCDMA/CDMA1X&EVDO/GSM, supporting China Mobile 4G/3G/2G, China Unicom 4G/3G/2G, and China Telecom 4G/3G/2G.
The two mobile phone cards of the McMans 5 are all use nano cards, placed in the same strip sim' card slot, using the pin exchange.
The highlight of the network is that Maiman 5 supports double-card blind insertion, that is, it does not need to identify which card is placed in a different card slot, and supports any mashup method other than “telecom+telecomâ€. The significance of the deputy card is that for many years we have only supported gsm 2G for the second card in dual-card dual standby. We have already supported wcdma 3G.
In actual use, I tested the speed test of the card used by Jingdong Communication (China Unicom's 4G system) in the bustling area. The actual speed is not bad, but the slowness of Unicom's 4G uplink is still upsetting. Let's take a look at the telecommunication at the same location. Upward speed.
5. Screen performance
Hardware information shows that the effective range of the Makram 5's resolution is. This is a 5.5-inch high-definition LCD screen with high contrast and accurate color reproduction.
The personal experience seems to be more comfortable and acceptable than the amoled screen. Let's look at a group of pictures, the comparison object is the same 5.5-inch LCD screen, 2.5D glass iPhone6s plus. By the way, don't bother with the dark side of Meman 5 and look at the iPhone's borders. You will think the world is wonderful.
The actual experience to see, wheatman 5's color style and iPhone6splus are relatively close, both of them are more focused on restoring accuracy, but in gorgeous, will not be pale yellow.
Maybe because the system's own wallpaper can better play the characteristics of Meman 5, looks more delicate than ip6sp.
6. Photography and video performance
Well, this one is believed to be the most desired by everyone, and it is also the most proud part of Huawei's propaganda process.
Sony IMX298 sensor, 8 million +16 million pixels, support 4K photography, support for three-axis optical image stabilization, these parameters are a great bright spot on any cell phone, Huawei's mobile phone in the past is not good at image features, not like Oppo, vivo-like efforts, this time, is there a better performance?
Our comparison object is still iPhone6splus, on Maiman 5, under the iPhone6s plus
From the above comparison charts, the automatic white balance effect of the McMans 5 is good, the focus speed is not any problem during the day, the color saturation and the iPhone6s plus are very close, are relatively light type. Just as a model that uses optical image stabilization as a point of purchase, there is clearly a bit of ambiguity in the two.
Night shot contrast
Both mobile phones are not good at patting, iPhone's night shot effect is a sufficient range, here feels a little more than a little bit of Memphon's sample early, but the night shot focus faster than the iPhone.
Macro comparison
Both can be positioned accurately with focus, the closest focusing distance is close, and the detailed data is unknown. From the proofs, Maiman 5's tolerance is slightly better than that of the iPhone.
Other featured shooting functions
Maiman 5 as an Android phone, all aspects of the function must be more fancy than the iPhone, such as the popular beauty camera function is directly integrated in the camera app, beauty level 10 adjustable
In addition there is a streamer camera, in fact, is programmed to set a series of aperture, shutter, iso combination fool features, users can use directly without a brain.
Video is also a major highlight, directly supporting 4K (38402160) resolution, and time-lapse photography supports 720P
7. Other features
Capacitive touch technology continues to advance, in the early years can distinguish between single and multiple fingers, and now can distinguish between different parts of the fingers, wheatman 5 has a bit of fun, on the screen using the back of the finger across the joints, you can activate the split screen, and The ratio of split screens and closing methods are also very convenient. This is very good. In addition, the screen capture function can also be achieved by drawing a closed circle on the back of the knuckles.
The use of eye protection mode is also a good small function. Similar to the current principle of blue light protection eyewear, the eye protection mode of Maiman 5 can reduce the damage to the eyes by reducing the color of blue light on the screen.
V. Summary:
advantage:
Appearance is good, work continued Huawei's high-end models in the metal feel more than capable, remarkable.
Photo function is rich, really rich
4GB+64GB storage space is very advanced
Life is good, really good!
Disadvantages:
Although the performance is sufficient, Xiaolong 625 I think is very good, but there are many Android enthusiasts only hardware theory, this processor may not look in their eyes.
In general, it is not clear whether it is a software algorithm problem or a processing capability problem. Hope is the former, the official version of the machine has the opportunity to improve in the subsequent upgrade.
A word comment:
As the precise positioning product of Huawei in the face of the youth market, Maiman 5 has the characteristics of strong personality, long battery life, and rich camera functions. It also can be considered as a requirement for the mainstream consumer groups, but the price of 2399-2599 makes it competitive at the same price level. It is a middle-upper level. However, it is believed that under the strong appeal of Huawei brand and reliable follow-up service support, we can achieve notable success. At the same time, as an evaluator, my purchase suggestions for this phone are:
You may have!
Ps. In the middle of the night after I had submitted a complete test report, I had a whim and I thought of the easiest way to unlock the engineering machine:
The hardware of the final engineering version of the machine before listing is exactly the same as the retail version, except that the limited firmware is used to distinguish the difference from the retail version. In other words, as long as you can flash into the retail version of the firmware, this machine is a Outstanding retail version of the machine!
I quickly searched the Internet to find the official rom of the McMans 5, the new machine, and most of the brushing sites and software platforms had not even had time to establish a section of the McMans 5, and even the official pollen club did not. Finally, in the corner of a certain position, I paid for the B113 version of the brush for official after-sales maintenance. The system is also applicable to both the standard version and the high version.
Rom is very large
There are Huawei official documents in the brush package, guide the brush machine, excerpts are as follows:
Step 1: Prepare a MICROSD card with a capacity of 6G or more. Use Sandisk, Kingstone, or Kingmax.
Step 2: Format the SD card (optional).
Step 3: Unzip SDupdate_Package.tar.gz and copy the entire dload folder to the root directory of the SD card.
Step 4: Check if there is a complete directory and file in the root directory of the SD card.
Step 5: When the phone is in the off state, insert the SD card, press the volume up button + volume down button + switch button, the phone automatically enters the upgrade mode, and then start the upgrade.
In addition, there are two other strong brushing methods, but none are as simple as brushing, and we will not repeat them here.
After the brushing operations of the above steps, the wheatman 5 finally became a retail machine after 15 minutes. Let's take a closer look.
System information, model number has been updated from ANT-AL10 to MLA-AL10. There is no doubt high configuration information, with emui4.1, the latest version of the system.
The fashionable test software such as the Ann Bunny family and Master Lu has also been installed.
The following is the security Bunny test process and results:
The total score is more than 66,000. Because it is a brand-new brush machine, it may be that I have not optimized the system enough, and I have been operating screen shots during the test, so it certainly affects the actual test score of the machine to some extent. Believe that I honestly test again, the score will be a lot higher.
Next is Master Lu
Unexpectedly, people's creativity at the end of the night was the best, so that the mobile phone's spirit can finally be united, but also let us finally understand the true content of the wheatman 5 high version.
thank you all!
