Nokia7 white version experience: probably the most special white double-sided glass phone _ Nokia Nokia7 Reviews

The unique 3D curved frosted glass back cover makes the Nokia7 a "heterogeneous" in white phones.

On December 1, HMD held its first birthday celebration in Beijing. Unknowingly, the owner of the Nokia mobile phone brand passed its first 365 days.

During the year, HMD released as many as 11 Nokia-branded mobile phones (including function machines and smart phones), including the familiar returning Nokia6, a full-fledged replica of the Nokia3310, using the Snapdragon 835. And re-branded the "ZEISS" logo of Nokia8 (not listed in the mainland).

Nokia7 is the model that HMD released in China at the end of October, and it is also the model that HMD is currently pushing.

Nokia7 is available in two versions, priced at 2,499 yuan (4GB + 64GB) and 2,699 yuan (6GB + 64GB), the body color is black and white. However, due to the mass production process, the first batch of Nokia7 was only available in black, and the white version was only recently released.

What is special about this white version of Nokia7? Let's take a look together. 3D curved frosted glass back cover

The Nokia7 white version features a "meat" design with a metal mid frame and front and rear glass.

The front glass cover is made of 2.5D glass, and the oleophobic layer on the surface is very sparse. It feels good when touched. The middle frame part is made of 7000 series aluminum alloy (the same as iPhone6s, iPhone7, Xiaomi Note3, etc.). Compared with the 6000 series aluminum alloy used in most metal mid-frame phones, it has higher hardness, and the middle frame has a curved surface treatment, which also helps to improve the grip feeling.

The most special part of the Nokia7 white version is its back cover glass.

The left and right sides of the glass were subjected to 3D hot bending, and the upper and lower sides were polished by 2.5D. These processes are not unusual, but in particular, the glass on the back cover of the Nokia7 is not a smooth mirror and is frosted.

Impression, before the Nokia7 white version, it seems that only the back cover of the Sony Xperia Z5 has been frosted glass in the mainstream mobile phone products (if there are other models, you can help point out in the comments). However, the Z5 glass is a 2D plane, made of 3D frosted glass, and the Nokia7 white version may be the first.

The use of frosted glass makes the back cover of the Nokia7 white version look very special. At first glance, the back cover of the Nokia7 white version is a bit like plastic (of course, more advanced), but in the hand, this delicate matte feels a bit like plastic, but reminds me of ceramic Feeling, very special.

Another common problem in mobile phones with metal frame and double-sided glass design is the connection between the metal middle frame and the back cover. Since there are obvious differences between the two materials of glass and metal (usually aluminum alloy), it is often difficult to put two kinds of materials. The material is perfectly connected, which is more noticeable on 3D hot-bending glass models with more obvious tolerances.

Nokia7 has done a good job in this respect. Although the glass has been subjected to 3D hot bending, there is no obvious deviation between the left and right glass and the metal middle frame. The feel of the joint is smoother.

5.2 inch 16:9 screen

The Nokia 7 features a 5.2-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 1920x1080 and an aspect ratio of 16:9. It must be said that in the recent 6-inch 18:9 full-screen mobile phones, Nokia7's screen is somewhat different.

But the advantage is that the Nokia 5.2-inch screen is significantly smaller than the 6-inch 18:9 full screen or the most popular 5.5-inch 16:9 screen, even if its border width is not too extreme. The overall size is still significantly smaller than these 6-inch, 5.5-inch models. If you are a "small screen control", Nokia7 is one of the few new machines on the market that meets this requirement.

The display effect, Nokia7 performance is not bad. Although it is LCD material, HMD has adjusted the color of this screen to be more beautiful. At first glance, some Samsung AMOLEDs feel, but the screen color temperature is not as deliberately adjusted as many domestic machines. Gorgeous but not particularly overwhelming.

Need to be reminded that although the space below the screen is not narrow, Nokia7 does not integrate touch button function on this "chin", it is still a virtual button design. At a screen size of 16:9, the virtual button's squeeze on the screen space is still relatively easy to detect.

Snapdragon 630, close to the native system

Let's take a look at the hardware of Nokia7.

In the SoC part, the Nokia7 is powered by Qualcomm's Opteron 630, which is one of the first mobile phones to adopt the Snapdragon 630.

The Snapdragon 630 is an upgraded version of the Snapdragon 625/626, which has a good reputation. It continues the excellent 14-nanometer process. It also has excellent power consumption and low heat, but it has obvious performance in ISP and GPU. The improvement (in the GPU-related running points, the increase range is between 20% and 30%), in those games that do not have high performance requirements (don't think about eating chicken hands), Xiaolong 630 can Get a more stable frame rate than the Snapdragon 625/626.

On the storage, our Nokia7 is 4GB (LPDDR4) + 64GB (eMMC) version, which is the only storage version of the white version of Nokia7 (black version also has 6GB + 64GB), support for MicroSD card expansion.

With the Snapdragon 630 and almost the original Android's light customization system, Nokia7's fluency is still guaranteed, daily app and multi-tasking switching are no problem, compared to the Nokia6 at the beginning of the year, but it is much better.

Here we will say a few more Nokia7 systems.

Everyone should know that the Nokia7 system is in a native style. In addition to adding mobile phone butlers, switching to domestic app stores, removing application drawers, etc., in order to "survive" in the country, the Nokia7 system is basically native Android (currently version 7.1.1), even in the system settings You can also see Google's options.

In the face of such a system, the evaluation of polarization is naturally inevitable. I personally prefer this kind of native and clean style, but for many users who are used to the "iOS-like" domestic custom ROM, Nokia7's system is getting up. There may be some incompatibility.

However, the proximity to the native system also has its advantages. In a recent system update, Nokia7's Android security patch level has been updated to December 1, 2017. This speed is similar to the GooglePixel series, which allows almost all domestic mobile phones to be shaped. See you. In addition, HMD also said that Nokia7 will soon receive an update for Android8.0Oreo, which is also a "welfare" for Nokia7 close to the native Android system.

Zeiss Jiacheng's photo, fast charging

In the era of Microsoft Lumia and the previous Nokia mobile phone, many high-end products will be equipped with ZEISS certified lenses. Although this is only a certification, it does not mean that Zeiss will personally design and manufacture the lens, but the ZEISS certification usually means that the mobile phone has excellent quality. The lens module and excellent imaging quality.

As Windows Phone fades out of sight, Microsoft's Lumia's Zeiss certification has gradually become a distant memory. Interestingly, on July 6 this year, HMD and Zeiss reached a cooperation agreement, and ZEISSlogo was able to "return the rivers and lakes" on the Nokia mobile phone. The first one to carry ZEISSlogo is Nokia8. On the slightly lower positioning Nokia7, ZEISSlogo is also absent.

Nokia7 uses a 16 megapixel CMOS (the specific model is unclear), the single pixel size is 1.12 micron in the middle, and the aperture f/1.8 is relatively large.

Compared with the Nokia6 at the beginning of the year, Nokia7 has made significant progress in terms of focus, filming rate and image quality, especially in the case of sufficient daylight, Nokia7 can capture a wealth of details. However, compared with the domestic products of 3,000 and above, Nokia7 still has a certain distance. This gap will be more obvious in low light. You can refer to our Nokia7 black version experience article.

Nokia7 also provides a function called "Double-View Camera Mode". The principle is that the front and rear cameras take photos or videos at the same time, and then take a photo or video with a dual camera (50% of each of the front and rear camera screens) or picture-in-picture. It is a More special fun features.

Nokia7's battery capacity is 3000 mAh, considering its compact size, this capacity is still considerable (the same as 5.2 inches, the size of the Sony XperiaXZ1 battery is only 2700 mAh) . With the power-saving Snapdragon 630, Nokia7's battery life is not bad.

In addition, Nokia7 also supports Qualcomm QC3.0 fast charging, the maximum power of the charging head is 18W, and the measured half hour can be from zero to 45%.

Life & Charging

Nokia7 equipped with 3000mAh battery, after 30 minutes of large games (NBA2K15), 30 minutes of wifi and 4G Internet and 30 minutes of local video playback, after a total of 2 hours of battery life test, the remaining power 81%, performance for only 3000mAh battery The mobile phone is already very good.

Charging power

Charging curve

Nokia7 white version experience: probably the most special white double-sided glass phone _ Nokia Nokia7 Reviews

Nokia7 supports 5V/2.5A, 9V/2A, 12V/1.5A output specifications up to 18W. The actual maximum charging power is only about 15.2W, 5%-100% charging, charging to 18% in 10 minutes, 44% in 30 minutes, and 1 hour and 54 minutes in total consumption. After conversion with the battery capacity, the speed of the pre-charging period is slightly lower than that of the millet MIX2. After 50% of the power, the speed drops, and after 90%, the turbulence enters, the limit speed is moderate, and the speed is too early, resulting in an overall length of time.

Gradually reasonable price we wrote in the Nokia7 black version of the evaluation:

Compared with the disappointing return of Nokia6 at the beginning of the year, Nokia7 has greatly improved its appearance, configuration, and photography. These advances may not make Nokia7 immediately become a mainstream hot-selling "explosive", but the market performance It should also be enough for HMD to continue to launch better follow-up products for this huge fan base.

After the back cover was replaced with a more special 3D white frosted glass, the Nokia7 white version is worthy of a better evaluation than the black version. At the same time, two months after the listing, HMD has gradually lowered the price of Nokia7. At present, the white version of Nokia7 on Jingdong is trading at 1799 yuan (1999-200).

Nokia7 white version experience: probably the most special white double-sided glass phone _ Nokia Nokia7 Reviews

This price is still not comparable to several domestic Internet brands with a price/performance ratio. The absence of the 18:9 full screen also makes Nokia7 look less "fashionable", but if you are not so concerned about the full screen, the Nokia7 white version still has a certain purchase. Value.

After all, the white double-sided glass mobile phone on the market is not much, and there is only one one for using 3D frosted glass.

Even if you leave the logo aside, Nokia7 is a good mid-range machine. With solid and exquisite performance, good performance and good endurance, you can see the sincerity of the producer. But the price of 2499/2699 yuan, Nokia7 is inevitably going to be caught and Xiaomi 6 / glory V9 / nubiaZ17 / one plus 5, and even Meizu PRO6Plus contrast.

Well, yes, in front of these flagships, Nokia7 is simply vulnerable, which is why the author has repeatedly mentioned "belief." The Nokia7 now requires faith support than the previous hammer. However, even if many people doubt HMD and the current pedigree of Nokia, this is the Nokia we can buy in 2017.

Silicon Window

Monocrystalline silicon is an infrared material with excellent comprehensive cost performance. It can be divided into transmission grade and mirror grade. As a transmission grade material, optical grade Czochralski silicon (OCZ SI) is widely used in the mid infrared (1-6um) band, with an infrared transmittance of more than 50%. Zone fused monocrystalline silicon can be used in wider band (1-14um), and high-purity zone fused monocrystalline silicon (hpfz SI) can even be used in far-infrared band (greater than 30um).

Silicon single crystal is also an excellent laser mirror material. Compared with other mirror materials such as copper and molybdenum, silicon single crystal is the preferred substrate material for CO2 laser mirror because of its good thermal conductivity, excellent thermal stability, low coefficient of thermal expansion, relatively low density, low cost and easy precision processing.
