The last nut phone was the Nut Pro 2S released on August 20 last year. It was half happy and unpleasant for me. It was unpleasant because it happened to coincide with my birthday, and the conference was in the evening. I had to give up the idea of ​​having a meal with friends and rushed to the West Fourth Ring to release the venue. The reason for the pleasure is because the nut Pro2S released that day is my favorite nut phone so far.

In the past year alone, last year’s Nut Pro 2S looks like a mobile phone two or three years ago. I can imagine how fast the mobile phone industry has been developing this year. Half-stagnation for more than a year, saying that I am confident in the Nut Pro 3, it must be fake.

The doubts come mainly from two aspects, and it is also very simple, that is, the manufacturing and design level of the new nut mobile phone, whether it has kept up with the times after one year; the design and ideas of Smartisan OS are getting narrower and narrower after one year. Still catching up.

But until the real Pro 3 was taken, this suspicion not only did not dissipate, but became more complicated.

The back is just like the exposure, the middle frame is very nutty

On the design, before the Luo Yonghao microblogging and Carlos’s empty talks have proved that the exposure map is true, so there is already a certain expectation for this point of mind. But the feeling is really different in the hand. This kind of difference is different from the popular arc-faced approach in the market. When you get started, you can recall the tough frame design that the nut phone has passed down from generation to generation.

But this kind of similarity is only reflected in the feel. Starting from Smartisan T1, the team wants to create a feeling of innocent “glass brick”, which also causes most hammer and nut phones to be pure white. . But the nut Pro 3 is no longer a “glass brick”, and its middle frame is replaced with a metallic frosted aluminum alloy.

This middle frame design will be reminiscent of the iPhone, or further reminiscent of the iPhone 4/4S. You know how small it is to see such a “retro” design in 9102.

On the one hand, the nut Pro 3 adheres to the design philosophy of the predecessors, and on the other hand has some concerns about market acceptance.

The middle frame is not smooth enough to be a reason for some people to persuade? It may be, but it is not as serious as the curved design. Moreover, it is said that next year’s iPhone will return to the iPhone 4 design in the middle frame. In fact, this may be an excuse for other aspects of the mobile phone.

The back glass cover is still the same as the previous one. The one I got is white, and there are three versions of black and green. After all, I still think that white is more representative of the essence of Smartisan mobile phones. My Smartisan T1 and Nut Pro 2S are also collections of white models.

The same is white, the three are completely different in terms of the look and feel. T1 is the coldest, Pro 2S is the warmest, and the white color of the Pro 3 is slightly deeper, somewhat similar to the white Samsung Note10. I still think that the colorful back cover is simple, but the hard part is how to be durable and advanced. I bought a lot of pure white mobile phones. The nut Pro 3 can not fall in front of the predecessors and Note10. Points, yes.

There are some thoughtful design elements on the back. Last year, unlocking the Hammer Logo and fingerprints is a godsend. But after abandoning the physical fingerprints this year, perhaps the nut phone is still reluctant to give up the logo. They redesigned the face and made the red hammer logo into a breathing lamp that is extremely rare on today’s mobile phones. It is placed in the lower left corner of the back. The letters next to “SMARTISAN” were replaced with uppercase letters, and the fonts were not the same as in the past.

From the perspective of the placement of the elements, this time the Pro 3 is intended to turn the back side of the landscape into a landscape design. The main reason is to match the rear camera matrix.

Interestingly, the white version is not the same as the black and green versions, with a single row of raised arrays, similar to the vertical arrangement on the back of most phones. The black and green versions are the same double row matrix as the exposure map. According to the nuts, the white version is zero, and the black and green versions are zero.

In order to balance the camera elements on the back, the designer of the nut traverses the visual direction to create an overall design similar to the card machine, which is even reflected in the texture of the supplied water jacket.

Get rid of the physical navigation keys and stuff them into Snapdragon 855 Plus

As for the front design, the nut Pro 3 finally abandoned the entity’s three major diamond keys with gesture navigation. The screen is a common water drop screen. This water droplet is exactly the same as the Xiaomi 9 which is closed to the “Liu Hai Meihua”. It includes the screen size and various parameters. It can basically be determined that it is the same screen. The visual perception is already familiar. The previous step, such as E3 luminescent material and 90Hz, is definitely a cost increase.

Review the parameters, 6.39 inches, 2340×1080 resolution, 19.5:9 ratio AMOLED screen, up to 600nits in the highest brightness sunlight. In addition, the nuts have also made DC dimming. Of course, they also reflect their consistent literary and artistic style. They write “Diret Current dimming” instead of shorthand.

It is worth mentioning that the automatic brightness function that has been criticized in the past has improved. At present, it is rare for the kind of death to give you the brightness of the screen. There is no problem playing the phone at night.

However, in terms of the border control of the screen, the nut Pro 3 feels a bit like the iPhone, but after careful comparison, it is found that whether it is the “forehead”, “chin” or the left and right sides of the frame. Control is basically the same as Xiaomi 9. It’s just a bit wide in the case of the aluminum alloy frame.

This time, the Pro 3 is also equipped with a screen fingerprint, which is a solution from the top. The actual unlock speed is at the mainstream level, but the unlock success rate needs to be slightly optimized.

If you give a summary of the design of the Nut Pro 3, you can see that it is not the same as the mainstream mobile phone, it can also be seen that it is less paranoid about the previous nut phone.

The surprise is that the Nut Pro 3 is stuffed with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus flagship chip, while the Nut Pro 3 is not a flagship phone. This can be done on a previous nut phone. Said to be unique.

Beyond the processor, the Nut Pro 3 also pushed the specifications of the main configuration to its own new height. The green version reached 12GB+256GB, and Note10+ is just that. There are also 8GB+128GB and 8GB+256GB versions, of which 128GB is UFS2.1 and the rest are UFS 3.0.

There are two advantages to configuring the heap. The first is to be able to look up some pricing. Now the 855 Plus processor has more models, and the pricing also covers a huge price space. Products such as Xiaolong 730G, the price ceiling is suddenly locked.

On the other hand, the flagship processor also leaves more room for the optimization of Smartisan OS, and the fluency can be better guaranteed. For example, multi-tasking capabilities, even the efficiency of TNT, need to rely on this processor. .

But a high-end product in the positioning of the flagship processor and storage specifications, it is necessary to make some compromises in other places. Nuts Pro 3 has no NFC function and no wireless charging. Although the battery has 4000mAh, the maximum power is still 18W of Qualcomm QC. The measured value is from 20% to 71% from 30 minutes, which is about the same level as the iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Additional Nuts The Pro 3 is still a Z-axis motor, and the vibrating feel is close to the nut Pro2S, but the current scene is slightly less than the training.

Photographing has always been the strength of the nut phone, but this time the Pro 3 also used a four-shot lens. The main camera is the mainstream 48 megapixel Sony IMX586, the sub-photograph is 13 megapixels 123° super wide-angle, and a double telephoto head of 8 million pixels, the last one is a 5 megapixel 2cm macro lens.

There are no problems with the parameters in terms of parameters, but you can still experience the nuts in the photo process. Pro 3 is missing a lot of features. For example, there is no smart HDR. There are only two options for switching. For example, the AI ​​scene optimization has the same but no switch is found, and the night scene mode is not pushed to the version of the experience.

But since the software version of the current experience is not very stable, the algorithm has not been finalized, so the whole experience and proofs have only a small reference.

Sample:

The four signature features have been improved, TNT can be screened wirelessly, and more seams are patched

Nuts Pro 3 is equipped with Smartisan OS 7.0, based on Android 9, so let’s put the “wann 4.4” stem today.

From the roots, the things that Smartisan OS pursues are not the same as all the systems on the market. Many of its functions and solutions are very small and even tricky. The essence behind it is the paranoid pursuit of efficiency. This can be seen from the four signature features of Smartisan OS. Whether it’s a flash capsule, a big bang, a step or a TNT, every function is a tool for efficiency.

Smartisan OS 7.0 is still working on these things, and this time there are new features:

Flash Capsule 3.0

Flash capsule is definitely a good tool and a tool that can be easily copied. This time Smartisan OS 7.0 integrates the Capsules with search and voice assistants.

What do you mean? It is still in the case of shorthand, it is still a flash capsule, but it will conduct a web search according to what you say, and will also call the knowledge provided by the headline.Map. You can understand that both voice search and flashing capsule notes are performed at the same time as voice input, and finally the results are selected according to your needs. However, when the input time is long, the web search will be automatically discarded and become a pure flash capsule note.

After the flash capsule will also be added to analyze the user’s semantic function, if it is an imperative statement, such as setting an alarm will become a voice assistant-style function settings. After the flash capsule became a three-in-one function, the paper efficiency was improved, and it was really easy to use it for a long time.

Big Bang 3.0

The main change in the big bang function is the addition of the “Frozen Sound” feature, in short, the ability to transcribe subtitles in real time from the audio being played on the phone. On the ground floor, the technology of Keda Xunfei was adopted.

This technology looks a bit familiar, similar to the real-time transcription of Google Pixel 4 a few days ago. The difference is that Google’s recognition model only recognizes English and is local, while Nut Pro 3 needs to be networked, but can support both Chinese and English.

From the actual experience, this function is more suitable for daily conversations that do not involve proper nouns. The TV drama can roughly translate the plot with an accuracy of about 90%. The most useful part of this feature is that he can directly translate the transcribed text directly into the big bang, and it is also very useful as a recording analysis tool.

“Fishing Screen” is another interesting little function. Specifically, when playing a video, it will record at the same time, and then split it into a picture display. The short video is split in five seconds, and the long video is one second. Zhang. This feature is aimed at “pause success”, which requires extracting one or several pictures from a video.

Step 3.0

One-step function This upgrade does not lie in the data exchange between cross-platform applications, but instead turns to the improvement of the split-screen function. At present, most mobile phones are not satisfactory for the implementation of the split-screen function. The main reason is that the screen size of the mobile phone is not enough to display the two applications at the same time.

What is the step 3.0? In fact, it becomes a multitasking window for the foreground activity. The main application occupies one side, and the split screen application is placed in the sidebar. It looks a bit like Galaxy Fold. Screen mode, but the difference is that any application that clicks on the foreground will be switched to the location of the main application.

At present, this split-screen mode supports up to four applications running at the same time, but the number is not critical. The significance is that some interfaces that need to be displayed in the foreground can be closed, such as WeChat migration or some OTA upgrades. Silly waiting, you will continue to play with you.

TNT

TNT… Well, a fateful feature. Today, mobile phone built-in TNT may be the best destination for this feature. This time, Smartisan OS has also added a very useful wireless TNT connection and TNT sharing mode.

Wireless TNT connection means you can follow the screen with electricityDepending on whether or not the display device is connected without having to pull a line, the practicality immediately soars. From the actual experience, this function is not particularly stable. Sometimes there will be no TV search. The wireless TNT also has only one switch that does not refresh the scan button, but once the connection is successful, it is stable.

From the actual experience, the 1080p 30fps of Miracast and the 1080p 60fps of the cast screen are still good, and the connection is very smooth. But whether it is more useful or not depends on whether TNT itself can meet the needs of light office and some mobile screen projections.

For me personally, the main function of using this function is to cast the screen of the mobile phone to the TV, because the direct projection is not the barrage, it is completely worth the soul, and the TNT mode can be retained. In the case of the barrage, there is also a case where the mirror mode cannot be full-screen due to the proportional limitation, but the video is played and the picture and the sound are slightly out of sync, and it is not known whether the follow-up can be solved.

As for the TNT sharing mode, it is suitable for displaying content such as pictures, videos or PPTs, and there are some targeted small screen optimizations compared to the desktop mode.

In addition to these efficiency tools, the most exciting part of Smartisan OS 7.0 is finally starting to see more of the user’s mass needs, such as the full-screen gestures that are better used after entering the full screen era, such as playing games. The dedicated mode and user-friendly features, as well as the addition of a negative screen and new custom fonts and so on.

These functions are already standard in other homes, and have even been further improved to new heights. The nut phone is in a semi-stop state due to team turmoil and headline acquisition. There are many ideas on Smartisan OS 7.0 that you want to catch up with, but in many details, such as this year’s very popular non-linear animation, there is still not enough time to think and polish.

Alive is success

The time is the most cruel. After losing more than a year, it is not easy to catch up with the mainstream development, especially for the nut mobile phone, which has always been a slow-working team. There are too many things. Need to sew the seams.

For nuts Pro 3 doesn’t really have any grand vision. In the second half of this year, this market has been difficult to have a stable place for such a small mobile phone. In the case of both OPPO and vivo have been playing the price-performance ratio, this is the standard judgment, even the iPhone can not escape the end of the price reduction.

Smartisan OS is still the most maverick mobile operating system on the market. Some of the efficiency tools it has produced are now on the domestic mobile phone system. The efficiency solution it pursues is still on the market. The most unique thinking of demand.

People who love will still love Smartisan OS, and people who don’t love still don’t love it. From Smartisan OS to Nut Pro 3 itself is still niche and cannot satisfy everyone. But from the bottom of my heart, I hope that there will be a corner in the market, and the experience and design tolerance of this “non-mainstream aesthetic”.

After all, being able to continue to live is already the greatest success.
