Strike while the iron is hot. Recently, Lenovo Mobile signed a contract with Zhu Yilong as its spokesperson, and held a new product launch conference on June 5438+1October 65438+August. Lenovo S5 Pro featuring "idol-level selfie" was officially unveiled and launched a new round of offensive to the thousand yuan market.

Following the design trend in recent years, Lenovo S5 Pro also adopted the bangs screen design, but compared with the "small bangs" that have evolved into water droplets and pearls, the bangs of S5 Pro are somewhat generous, and the look and feel are very similar to those of iPhone X.
Of course, the wide bangs are bound to accommodate more sensors. The Liu Haizhong of S5 Pro not only accommodates the necessary receiver, light distance sensor and 20-megapixel camera, but also designs an additional 8-megapixel infrared camera. On the one hand, it is used to capture 3D information of the face to assist beauty, on the other hand, it also improves the efficiency of face unlocking in dark light.
On the screen, Lenovo S5 Pro adopts a 6.2-inch LCD screen with an aspect ratio of 19: 9, a resolution of 2246* 1080,1/3% sRGB color gamut, and the highest brightness can reach 600 nits. In terms of physical experience, the color performance of this screen is pleasing to the eye, and the perception under strong light is acceptable, and the overall performance is in a leading position in the same price.
As for the width of the chin, it can be seen that Lenovo S5 Pro is also controlled, which belongs to the medium level in LCD products. Fortunately, the widths of the borders on both sides of S5 Pro are symmetrical. The transition of large R angle weakens the width of chin visually, and the overall look and feel is more harmonious.
See also integrated fuselage.
Different from the glass body used by mainstream models, Lenovo S5 Pro adopts an all-metal integrated body, and its line design is more similar to that of iPhone 6 series, with a very flat back and a slight arc-closing transition on both sides. The surface is polished with 205 zirconium sand, which feels much more delicate than the original metal and is not difficult to hold in your hand.
It should be said that from signal tape injection molding, CNC machining to surface treatment, the metal body of Lenovo S5 Pro has been regarded as an excellent level in the thousand yuan machine. After all, there are still many models that stay in the three-stage fuselage or continue to polish large plastics.
In order to improve the recognition, Lenovo also printed its own logo on the lower left corner of the fuselage, which corresponds to the position of the dual camera module above, vaguely showing the style of Lenovo's big shot that year.
How about taking a rear double camera?
In terms of camera, Lenovo S5 Pro adopts mainstream dual camera configuration, equipped with12 megapixel wide-angle main camera, F 1.8 aperture, and 20 megapixel telephoto auxiliary camera, F 2.6 aperture, which is used for optical zoom and portrait shooting. Please look at the following example.
Lenovo S5 Pro is warm in color and limited in details, which basically meets daily use. However, as a mobile phone featuring taking photos, Lenovo S5 Pro still has some problems to be solved urgently, such as the zoom switching jam, the slow HDR imaging, and the room for optimization of image quality with the composite picture from bright to dark.
20 megapixel beauty selfie
Lenovo S5 Pro features self-timer, with a 20-megapixel main camera and an 8-megapixel infrared camera. The former is responsible for self-portrait imaging, supports four-in-one pixel technology, and improves the self-portrait effect at night; The latter can assist the main camera in 3D face modeling, which provides a foundation for more natural beauty and light effect.
The beauty of Lenovo S5 Pro starts from many aspects. In addition to regular dermabrasion, it also supports face micro-shaping, such as big eyes and thin face, which has obvious effects after actual experience.
In addition, Lenovo S5 Pro supports six kinds of ambience lighting effects, providing 3D portrait lighting effects such as natural light, stage light, morning light, rainbow light and studio light. These light effects are by no means the superposition of simple filters. Based on the capture of spatial information by dual cameras, a 3D stereo model is established to achieve a more realistic stereo lighting effect.
Of course, the specific beauty effect varies from person to person, and you can see the effect through the proofs.
Snapdragon 636 basically meets the needs of mobile games.
Lenovo S5 Pro adopts Snapdragon 636 mobile platform. As a mid-range SoC promoted by Qualcomm this year, it looks like a chicken blood version of Xiaolong 630 from the name, but it is actually an out-and-out youth version of Snapdragon 660.
Nominally, Snapdragon 636 adopts advanced 14nm FinFET process, Kryo 260 architecture and 4+4 core design consistent with Snapdragon 660. The highest frequency of four large cores is 1.8Ghz, and four small cores are 1.6Ghz, and only the main frequency of the large core is slightly lower than that of Snapdragon 660.
At the same time, Snapdragon 636 has built-in Adreno 509 GPU, Spectra 160 ISP and Hexagon 680 DSP, and its baseband is Snapdragon X 12 LTE modem, with the highest downlink rate of 600Mbps. Support dual card dual standby and dual 4G, including 5G WiFi and Bluetooth 5. Comprehensive performance and affordable price.
In the actual experience, the daily experience of Snapdragon 636 running 6GB is obviously improved. In the high frame rate mode, the fierce team battle scene of the mainstream mobile game "the glory of the king" can also be maintained above 30fps. For the demanding chicken-eating mobile game, it is enough to reduce the picture quality.
Brand-new ZUI+ sincerity charging set
Lenovo S5 Pro runs the latest ZUI 5.0 system. In the actual experience, its fluency is obviously improved compared with the ZUI 3.9 equipped in the early stage of Z5. At the same time, the author also noticed that the interface of ZUI 5.0 has also changed, such as canceling the shortcut menu at the bottom and changing it into a more mainstream drop-down menu.
ZUI 5.0 optimizes the full-screen gesture, which is easy to operate and has a dynamic effect by sliding upward from any position at the bottom to trigger the return, sliding inward from the left and right edges of the bottom to correspond to multi-tasks, and sliding upward to hover at any position at the bottom to return to the home page.
In addition, Lenovo S5 Pro's face unlocking speed is also good. Because of the existence of infrared camera, the speed and success rate of unlocking at night are obviously improved, which is difficult to experience for the same price model.
It is also commendable that Lenovo S5 Pro is equipped with Type-C interface, built-in 3500mAh battery, supports QC3.0 fast charging, and comes standard with QC3.0 fast charging head, which can be used normally for one day, and can be replenished in a short time even if there is no power.
Price 1298 yuan, high cost performance, but the advantage is no longer.
With "national mobile phone, good conscience" as the keynote, the price of Lenovo S5 Pro still follows this idea. The price of 6GB+64GB version is 1398 yuan, and the gold version of 1298 yuan is provided additionally, which is cost-effective.
However, comparing Xiaomi 8 Youth Edition (from 1399 yuan) and Xiaomi 6x equipped with Snapdragon 660 (from1199 yuan) horizontally, Lenovo S5 Pro has no absolute strength in design, technology, configuration and photographing. And the cost-effective advantage is not obvious, so the appeal to rational consumers is probably limited. Fortunately, Lenovo Mobile also invited Zhu Yilong, a very popular spokesperson, which may affect the purchase of some consumers.
