Because I was a night owl, I usually didn't sleep in the early hours of the morning, so my friend asked me to help grab the Xiaomi 5s Plus mobile phone in the early morning of September 29th. I'm a bit shameful for grabbing Xiaomi, because I once tried to help other people N times, but I didn't grab it once. There was always a feeling of being played. So grab the millet 5s Plus I did not hold any hope. However, the appeal of Xiaomi’s mobile phone really dropped a lot. This time Xiaomi 5s and 5s Plus are surprisingly good to buy. Jingdong deliberately set up obstacles, obviously the address has long been stored, but the order is always to fill in the address again, because I am lazy, only too lazy to fill, to exchange orders for the millet official website, although the official website does not send millet ear plugs.
According to my guess, Xiaomi still played a monkey, although not many people bought it, but the official website and JD still showed no goods after N minutes, giving people a very sought-after feeling. But then it may not be sold out.
However, it was accidentally hit by Xiaomi's official website and waited for 2 days, but it was not shipped. According to this speed, I fear that the National Day will not necessarily be obtained. Take a glance at Jingdong, and buy enough cash.é‚ Canceling orders from the official website and changing orders from Jingdong to deliver them in half a day. The speed of Jingdong was the most reliable, but also, I got the time for Xiaomi 5s Plus 2 days later.
In summary, my feeling during the purchase process is whether or not monkeys, Xiaomi mobile phone is really a machine is hard to find before. But now, although intermittent monkeys will show that they are out of stock, it is estimated that the machine inventory will not be sold too much and it will be difficult to continue playing. Therefore, Xiaomi 5s and 5s Plus are not only easy to buy, but only a few days are the price reduction. With gifts, such as sending earplugs, official website to buy +1 yuan to send lucky bags and so on.
The reason why Xiaomi 5s and 5s Plus has fallen to this point is that Xiaomi's price/performance advantage has long since disappeared. The configuration of Xiaomi 5 has already spelled a similar price for mobile phones. And now the 5s and 5s plus more prominent, 1999 yuan's low 5s is still the same 3 million years of running memory, to see as early as the week released as long as 1699 yuan Leyi Pro 3GB 4GB memory + Qualcomm 821 processor, 1999 yuan is already 6GB of memory.
Of course not only configuration, millet 5s and 5s Plus's appearance is also slightly worse ugly, cheap sense of explosion of the brushed metal shell, there are black boxes. The advantages of Xiaomi 5s and 5s Plus are estimated to be only MIUI system.
My friend is a loyal miboy, so buy millet 5s Plus is still very firm, I can help to buy just a few days to play on the National Day, and then send an experience to share, earn a gold coin or something, why not. Unfortunately, I too want to write a complete evaluation at a glance without launching a simple out-of-the-box, earning the first sun award
There is a place I really want to Tucao, Xiaomi push 5s and 5s Plus dual version is obviously to learn Apple, but what's what is 5s Plus is not only the 5s big screen version, but a completely different from the 5s mobile phone, it is almost Without the elements of the Xiaomi mobile phone, I feel more like a Red Mi Note phone equipped with Qualcomm 821, so there are rumors on the Internet that Xiaomi 5s Plus is not designed by Xiaomi, but is a branded product, after I touched Xiaomi 5s Plus. I believe it.
Whether it is from the name or price, millet 5s Plus should be better than 5s, but in fact 5s Plus removes a little more memory, CPU frequency is higher, the rest seems to be worse than 5s, for example 5s used some "black technology", such as ultrasonic fingerprinting, 3D Touch pressure screen, better camera, etc. These millet 5s Plus do not have. Therefore, from the functional configuration point of view, 5s and 5s Plus should not come from the same design team, which is also a strong evidence that millet 5s Plus is not a millet design but a brand.
Out of the boxUnbelievable, out of the box, the first batch of millet 5s only silver, millet 5s Plus only the first yellow, one of my most annoying colors, but my friends feel better, I do not care.
Pure white box, very simple
Millet 5s Plus mobile phone, a charger, a data cable, a protective shell, there are instructions, accessories are very economical.
Millet 5s Plus theoretically supports QC 3.0 fast charging. From the charger's parameters, it does support 5V/2.5A, 9V/2A and 12V/1.5A output specifications, but the measured charging speed is not fast.
Millet 5s Plus's battery capacity is 3800mAh (typ) / 3700mAh (min), probably tested the charging speed, and a few years ago does not support fast-charging mobile phones as slow, 2 hours is only from 56% to 84%. I used one of the 3 mobile phone standard DASH fast charge, less than an hour will be able to charge more than half of electricity. So from the actual use, I feel millet 5s Plus does not fast charge, maybe the poor standard line of millet?
New mobile phone screen, plastic sticker on the back cover, protection sticker on the protective case
Said millet 5s Plus ugly, from the photos I think it is a popular face, there is no ultimate narrow edge, there is no distinctive HOME button, but I think it is not ugly, but no characteristics only.
The front panel of millet 5s Plus uses 2.5D glass, but the curvature is relatively small, and it is easier to estimate the glass film. The key part is 3 touch keys, and the design style is the same as that of the Red Mobile phone, not the physical key of the Xiaomi phone, so I insist that 5s Plus is more suitable for the Red Rice Note 4 Plus.
Earpiece, 400W pixel front camera and sensor
Millet 5s Plus's frame and the back of the metal material, according to the different colors, the back of the treatment of two kinds, of which gold, gray metal brushed, silver and rose gold matte matte. I personally like matte matte, but unfortunately there is only one version of gold.
The back of millet 5s Plus I feel ugly point, first, metal brushed bad street in N years ago, generally used in low-end machines, it is difficult to make temperament, so the use of metal wire drawing machines are generally more ugly, And the bad handling will have a sense of the cottage, cheap sense, millet 5s Plus gold is not escaped this embarrassment. In addition, looking at my pictures may feel pretty good, but remember the millet 5s Plus real machine than the ugly in the photo.
Millet 5s Plus looks one of the more depressing places is a dual camera, feeling more than a single high-end camera 5s, in fact, otherwise, millet 5s Plus's photo significantly worse than 5s a grade. Because millet 5s Plus is using the Sony IMX258 sensor, the foundation is not large, this is a thousand yuan low-end camera, obviously inferior to millet 5s with the high-end model IMX378 outsole camera. So I think Xiaomi 5s Plus's dual camera is a laughing stock, just to look like you are awkward, behind the photos in the real shot display, proofs will further prove my opinion.
From the photo, the texture of the brushed metal on the back of the photo is not bad, but the real thing is quite normal.
Another awkward place is that Xiaomi 5s uses "black technology" ultrasonic fingerprinting, and the fingerprint is on the HOME key at the bottom of the screen. And millet 5s Plus actually does not have this "black technology", but similar to the red rice phone uses ordinary post-fingerprint recognition, Xiaomi is really funny enough.
Millet 5s Plus back an ugly element, it is not a one-piece, but three-stage, both ends of the color, drawing effect is different, so I feel ugly.
Millet 5s Plus uses a USB Type-C interface with speakers on both sides. It should look like a dual-speaker configuration. Millet 5s Plus loud speaker volume is relatively large, but the sound sounds relatively thin, the sound quality is not high.
Millet 5s Plus and millet 5s also have a difference, 5s Plus has infrared remote control, 5s is not. Look at the photo There is a small round hole in the center of the top border of the 5s Plus. It is an infrared remote control transmitter.
Right side power and volume keys
Millet 5s Plus supports dual card dual standby, Cato's two card slots are Nano SIM card.
Power on boot, millet 5s Plus factory system version is MIUI8, after the bright screen you can see the black border around the screen, but the dark side of millet 5s Plus is much narrower than I thought, fully acceptable. In addition, someone else saw the Internet tanned millet 5s out of the box, black border wide and terrible, 5s Plus did not expect to be much better, fortunately.
Millet 5s Plus with a dark theme is better, it will not be easy to see the black side
Change to a light-colored theme black border will be clear at a glance
Screen effect real shotMillet 5s Plus screen is 5.7 inches, 1080p resolution. Since I was already accustomed to the AMOLED screen with one plus three mobile phones, the screen of Xiaomi 5s plus seemed to be relatively elegant at first, but I know that its screen is more correct than the AMOLED screen.
As a result, I also took photos of the screens of millet 5s Plus and one plus 3 mobile phones, and the brightness was adjusted to a similar brightness. It can be seen directly that the AMOLED screen has high saturation and bright colors, while the color of the millet 5s Plus should be accurate.
The maximum brightness, millet 5s Plus slightly lower than the one plus 3, from the parameters to see the brightness than the millet 5s lower 50nit, so remove the size, millet 5s Plus screen parameters and display quality, should be lower than the 5s grade The result is puzzling, as a phone with a Plus suffix.
Contrast, details, I personally think that one plus three is also a slight advantage, although one plus three screen display quality is very general, but through comparison can also know millet 5s Plus screen display is just like the general level.
Compared with a plus 3 appearanceFinally put some comparison photos of millet 5s Plus and one plus 3, I personally think that the appearance of one plus three is obviously good-looking, I think the main one is 3 plus 2.5D screen curvature is relatively large, looks beautiful, and millet 5s Plus The 2.5D screen edge curvature is very small, does not feel it is 2.5D. However, there are obsessive-compulsive disorder, I think 2.5D is not good, there is no suitable glass film stickers, my one plus three to buy a variety of different glass film, paste can not be used, are abolished, a little regret Tear off the original film. Who else said that now the mobile phone screen is hard, streaking is also okay, my one plus three with more than 3 months, the screen has had some minor scratches.
Then on the back, one plus three is more concise, and I think it's more patient. However, the back of one plus three is more likely to lose paint, and my mobile phone already has some paint dropouts. Millet 5s Plus's brushed metal effect photographs can be taken very beautiful, but the real machine is slightly cheap.
There is also feel touched, millet 5s Plus to give mobile phone feel is a thousand-class mobile phone feel. One plus three gets a good touch on the phone, giving a very solid feeling. So someone on the Internet said that millet 5s Plus is using a low-end shell, I believe.
Body thickness, millet 5s Plus and a plus 3 thickness is similar to the weight, I think the screen is slightly smaller, plus a 3 more heavy, the reason should be that it uses a shell metal thickness is much thicker.
MIUI 8 experienceThe last time it was still millet 3, developed to the millet 5s Plus, the system has been MIUI 8 version, for me there is a certain degree of freshness, so here's a brief summary of the feelings of MIUI.
MIUI was used a long time ago. At that time, my feeling was that MIUI had full functionality. Many things did not need to install third-party software. Later, I used the Meizu cell phone and became familiar with Flyme. When I first used Flyme, I felt a little less than MIUI, but it took 2 years to get used to it. In June of this year, I replaced one plus three. One plus hydrogen Os is more simple than Flyme. I just felt bad when I bought it. There are many bugs, but after several months of familiarization, I experienced several upgrades and bug fixes. A lot, but also feel quite easy to use, although some features are still too simple.
So this time back to MIUI 8, it can be said from simple to complex. MIUI's functions and self-contained applications are very rich. Thanks to the Qualcomm 821 processor, the system fluency is very good, and it doesn't feel any difference from the one plus three fluency.
However, the legendary MIUI pop-up ads this time I also see it, for the first time boot, notification bar on a lot of notice, the system comes with the application, Meizu Flyme also have, but MIUI is a good place for these notices are Can be closed manually no longer prompted (flyme system can not turn off), can become very quiet.
Millet MIUI 8 based on droid 6.0.1
With so many applications, music, video and other basic have their own App, this is stronger than one plus hydrogen Os, hydrogen Os makes me wonder is not even their own music, video player, are used It is a third-party app such as NetEase Cloud and LeTV.
The application of the characteristics, I saw the application of millet purse, rice, remote control, millet roaming. Xiaomi wants to make a payment, so with this Xiaomi wallet, I am only interested in the function of a public transportation card. Using a mobile phone as a bus card will certainly make it much easier to use or recharge. However, I do not know why, I point to show service is temporarily unavailable, do you still have to wait for the system to upgrade it?
Xiaomi is a famous grocery store, and everything is out. Xiaomi also laid out smart appliances long ago. The Mijia application is an app that integrates shopping malls and smart home appliances, similar to JD.com and Ali. I don't have any other things for Xiaomi, so this feature can't be experienced either.
Millet 5s Plus has an infrared remote control function that can turn the phone into a remote control. TVs and air conditioners can be controlled. It is ok to find no model home appliances inside. You can use the remote control of the appliance to aim at the millet 5s Plus phone and create one through the learning function. This feature was already available on tablets and mobile phones many years ago. Although it is not new, it is highly practical and is also a function that most mobile phones do not have.
Millet roams, it seems that going online can be very useful
MIUI 8 practical features, as well as application of double open, mobile phone split, application lock and other functions. The mobile phone is avatar, similar to the owner and guest mode that existed only a few years ago. More simply, it is the multi-user login of Windows. You can create two login accounts. The desktops and settings of different accounts are different. When others are allowed to use their own mobile phones, their private desktops, applications and privacy content cannot be seen by others.
Application of double-opening is very useful, you can open 2 QQ, Wechat, Weibo on a mobile phone, and when you add 3, you can have this function just fine.
Fingerprint recognition, Xiaomi 5s Plus is just ordinary fingerprint recognition, and there is no "black technology" ultrasonic fingerprinting used by Xiaomi 5s. But after testing, I think that fingerprint recognition of Xiaomi 5s Plus is still very fast, and the accuracy is relatively high. Just the size of the phone is too big, and my hand is smaller, the index finger is a bit out of position.
I do not want to say too much configuration, millet 5s Plus Although not the strongest, but also the top distribution, Qualcomm Xiaolong 821 processing, the maximum frequency is 2.35GHz, than the millet 5s that 2.15GHz downgrade version 821 to be slightly stronger, so Millet 5s Plus also has the highest ability to compete for safety.
The final run point of the Bunny I tested is 1,49086 points. If I run several times or the score may be higher with some method, the current level is slightly smaller than the one plus 3 mobile phone with Qualcomm 820 processor. Advantage, but not enough to open a grade, in general, Qualcomm 820 performance improvement compared to 820 is very limited, I think not too tangled is 820 or 821.
Memory, millet 5s Plus low version is 4GB of memory, is the same level of general price. In terms of occupancy, in general use, the remaining running memory is generally more than 1GB. After clearing the background to release memory, the remaining memory is 2GB, which means that the system takes at least 2GB. If it is millet 5s with 3GB of memory, the available running memory is estimated to be only about 1GB, which is really a bit less.
I have given the phone to my friend. After a few days, my friend responded to the NFC 5s Plus NFC can not be used (bus card function), 4G signal is not good (as compared to the red rice Note3), the volume of the call is also small, that is to say The basic functions of network and call are obviously not as good as Redmi Note 3. They are very dissatisfied and want to return goods. For millet 5... I don't know if this millet 5s Plus I bought is not an example. My friend with millet 5s Plus can Tell me soon.
In fact, for the signal problem, I first saw millet 5s Plus shell design probably can guess, the back cover is all metal, only the border has a very short two antenna strips, unlike millet 5s or iPhone and other mobile phones There are long antenna strips on the back, is it enough for Xiaoshi 5s Plus to have such a small antenna strip?
Regarding the battery, Xiaomi 5s Plus's battery capacity is 3800mAh, which is not very large in the same-size mobile phones. The battery life is not outstanding, but in the days of use, I just used to look at WeChat, QQ, JD, and Taobao. Brush the strength of today's headline, take a picture, use 1 day is still possible, may be the reason of the new machine, the battery usage time is a little stronger than the 3 plus 3 I used for 3 months.
In addition, I do not play mobile games at all, so the game experience is not, but Qualcomm 821 is already the most powerful program of graphics performance, there will be no game with insufficient performance, but I am not sure about the fever under high load conditions. As far as I use it normally, I don't feel body heat. When running the rabbit bunny test, I did not feel body heat. So without playing a big game, fever should be negligible (in the cool autumn weather).
Photo experienceFinally talk about the camera, this is a place I really want to tweet. Because Xiaomi 5s Plus is currently the most high-end mobile phone of Xiaomi, the actual performance is unsatisfactory. From the comparison of 5s Plus and 5s on the Internet, the price is more expensive, and the use of dual camera 5s Plus is obviously worse than 5s. And the black technology “hypersensitized photography†mentioned by Xiaomi’s conference is the characteristic of Xiaomi 5s, not the 5s Plus, and even the officials all indirectly pointed out that 5s photographing is better, and the 5s Plus’s dual cameras are only superficially imitating iPhone 7 Plus, Xiaomi's practice is really puzzling.
Hardware, millet 5s uses the latest Sony IMX378 sensor, sensor size is 1/2.3, is the outsole in the phone, plus 1200W pixel resolution is not high, it can be said that its single pixel size is large, aperture F2.0, in theory, the picture quality and low light performance should be relatively strong. Of course, I haven't measured it, but I'm sure that the parameters are definitely better than the Xiaomi 5s Plus. But the fly in the ointment is that Xiaomi 5s has designed an optional camera to smooth out the camera, canceled the optical image stabilization function of millet 5, this design of the cart before the horse is once again puzzling, but with the millet 5s large The bottom IMX378 sensor, this disadvantage can be recovered.
And millet 5s Plus is 2 cameras, it seems to be higher end, but in fact the camera is using the Sony IMX258! IMX258 is what it is, from the figures can be seen to be several levels lower than the IMX378, is a camera used on several hundred mobile phones. So even with two cameras, will the picture quality be better? Obviously not, the three heads can't be the last ones. And the two cameras of Xiaomi 5s Plus, one is color, one is black and white, the coordination and optimization of the two did not do a good job.
MIUI 8 camera applications are the same, but millet 5s Plus compared to other millet phones is different with a dual camera, so there is an open dual camera icon. However, I think that the MIUI 8 camera program has not been fitted with dual cameras. There are obvious bugs in the opening of the dual cameras.
Do not say quality, I think the current millet 5s Plus photo experience is relatively bad, the main problem is 2 points. First, millet 5s Plus turns on HDR by default, and takes pictures when the light is weak. It should be a continuous shot of N photos and then a composite, so taking a photo to wait for N seconds, the efficiency is too low, and the process of taking photos The shutter time is not slow, but it is prone to blurring, and the success rate of taking a clear photo in low light is not high. The one-plus-three mobile phones I use are also default Auto HDR, but HDR shooting is as fast as turning off and does not need to wait for N seconds or jitter. Millet 5s Plus If you manually shut down HDR is normal, take a picture very quickly, and it will not be so easy to jitter fuzzy, HDR should have been to improve the picture quality features, but in the millet 5s Plus who is counterproductive, easy to blur, To reduce the chance of success, I think this should be a logical problem of the algorithm.
Millet 5s Plus only has one color camera enabled by default, and the other black and white camera does not work. In black and white mode, the black and white camera is turned on, and the color camera does not work. To use a dual camera requires a small click on the shutter button.
What I want is that the other problem with the first version of the system is that in the dual camera mode, the shutter will often “failâ€. That is, pressing the shutter button will not “take a picture†at all. To take a picture, use the phone to focus the screen. Wait. A camera pattern appears in the focus point, and the camera pattern will be shot again. However, this operation is very troublesome, and it is easy to bring jitters.
In addition, the reason why the above “failures†and “cannot shoot photos†are quoted is because they are not really malfunctioning and cannot be photographed. Just after pressing the shutter, we have to wait for a long time (more than N seconds). Generate photos. However, when you press the shutter button for a long time, you can't see the picture. You will definitely think that you didn't take it. Even if I found it, I'm sure I'll worry about not taking it! This should be a bug that will make the dual camera model a fundamentally unusable bug.
However, from the picture quality, the use of dual cameras, the photos taken out generally larger than a single camera photo file, the quality does have a certain increase, you can improve some latitude, you can record more details of the shadows. In addition, in the proofs shot, it can be seen that the current dual camera of Xiaomi 5s Plus does not increase the focus, increase the blur effect and other functions.
Put some photo proofs taken during the day. Because during the National Day, the emperor was not hazy or rainy, there was no blue sky, and the weather was not very good. Therefore, the photos I shot were not as beautiful as the normal blue sky.
Single camera shooting
Dual camera shooting
Vibrant filter
Shift filter (The effect is not good, just remove the center and use the blur effect)
Color mode
Black and white mode
Color mode
Black and white mode
Color mode
Black and white mode
On the proofs, the wide angle of millet 5s Plus is relatively wide, but the quality of the picture is realistic and the color is still bright. The black-and-white photos are actually better than the black-and-white photos with the software filters. However, the pixels of the Xiaomi 5s Plus camera are not high, only 1300W, so after zooming in the details is not good, and there are obvious smear marks. Compared with the one plus three I use, the picture quality is obviously worse. So I think the image quality of Xiaomi 5s Plus does not meet the 2,000 yuan price.
The shooting experience during the day is fairly good, the focus speed is normal, and the default HDR is basically normal. Basically, it will not wait for N seconds, but the white balance occasionally fluctuates.
Then put a group of photos taken at night to see the low light performance of Xiaomi 5s Plus.
When I came home to work, I suddenly felt the coldness behind me. I turned to look up and saw that a comet staring at me was terrible!
From the exif of the photos, the safety shutter time of Xiaomi 5s Plus is 1/14 second, and the problem of handheld shooting is basically small. From my proofs above, if there is no jitter, millet 5s Plus low light shooting is still quite good, although the background is small, the aperture is only F2.2, but can not see the obvious noise, the picture is relatively pure.
But as I mentioned earlier, when HDR is turned on by default, taking a picture may take a few seconds, which may cause confusion. In fact, when I opened HDR, I took several pictures of the same picture. Most of them were blurred. I would not It shows that this is a place that needs repair and improvement.
to sum up:The end of the experience, personally, I am not satisfied with Xiaomi 5s Plus, because I will summarize the following sub-section. The owner of the machine also expressed dissatisfaction in the days of use, not because of performance, functionality, and appearance, but because the call quality and network signal strength were not ideal. The performance was not as good as that of the Redmi Note 3 phone.
Here's a summary of the advantages and disadvantages:
1, Qualcomm Xiao Long 821 processor performance is strong, running points higher than Xiao Long 820, the system is smooth.
2, MIUI 8 rich features.
3, slightly ugly appearance, workmanship and texture should be better.
4, 4G signal is not stable, call volume is relatively small.
5, although it is a dual camera, but the camera specifications are too low, resulting in poor overall picture quality, can not reach the standard level of domestic flagship mobile phones, and the dual camera with the need to improve and improve the function to be continued development.
6, millet 5s Plus "Plus" suffix name is not true, many features and specifications are not as good as millet 5s, wonderful!
Finally stressed: millet 5s and millet 5s Plus are clearly two different designs of mobile phones, so the advantages and disadvantages of millet 5s Plus mentioned in this article may not apply to millet 5s, and vice versa. So do not use millet 5s Plus performance to judge millet 5s, do not use millet 5s performance to judge millet 5s Plus
