Improvements in configuration, color value regression - hammer M1L high version out of the box comment

May 16, 2023

Not hammer powder or hammer black, this is the first time to buy and use a hammer mobile phone. On the night of the 18th, I watched the live broadcast of the conference on Weibo. The configuration of M1L was more in line with my needs. The large screen, Xiaolong 821 processor, 6G operating memory + 64G storage, plus a good reputation SOS system And in line with the budget price, after the conference ended, it placed orders for Jingdong. Due to the severe overtime of the conference, it was originally sold at 10pm and was delayed until 11pm. I arrived at Jingdong and took orders at 22::59pm. Jingdong and Tmall flagship store were on sale. Only the version of white + matt aluminum alloy (the situation of Suning Tesco and No. 1 shop is unknown). After ordering, they looked at the official website again. At that time, all three colors were sold. It was felt that Coffee Gold was more commercial and white polished stainless steel version was available. Streaked borders are prone to scratches. There is no difference between wearing and matt aluminum alloys. There is no need to spend 300 more, and there are no changes to the order. After a few minutes, the Jingdong, official website and Tmall flagship store are all sold out. It is estimated that the spot price of all platforms on the day of launch will add up to about 5000-8000 units. After the order was placed on the micro-blog there was discussion on the back of the white version of the high-gloss plastic material, this did not explain at the press conference yesterday, the hammer official micro-blog made additional explanations on some questions, also confirmed this point

This time, the M1 series has no black version. It is said that before the IPO, it will open a communication with the electricity supplier. The data shows that golden mobile phones account for 80% of sales (estimated this is last year's data, this year's popular black), plus the high cost of black, so give up Black, made a coffee gold. But black machine engineering phase produced, if the latter is also expected good sales volume production black version of it, the Internet also has some black real machine demo video, you can look and feel better texture black (more like the iPhone).

The Jingdong was not so powerful. It was only on the afternoon of the 20th. The outer box was a big millet phone tray. Is Jingdong's first gift?

It turns out that I want more

One, out of the box

What's wrong with this seal? The first shipment will not buy "used" bars.

The black square box, the uppercase M, the texture of this box is particularly good, it feels very comfortable

Hammer logo and English printed on the side

Remove the cover, the interior is a multi-box design

After opening, packaging design is not bad

This time, the M! series is equipped with a Qualcomm QC3.0 fast charge of up to 12V2A, and supports MediaTek's PE+2.0 fast charge protocol, which is produced by Tianbao Electronics.

The volume of the charger is not large, and it is quite similar to Huawei's 9V2A fast charger.

The data cable of Type-C interface is naturally also indispensable, anti-winding flat wire design, good texture

A small lamp is designed to facilitate blind insertion at night. The rear lamp will be automatically extinguished after the mobile phone is inserted. It is practical and the upper right corner is the effect of the evening. The lighting is soft.

Let's take a look at the M1L real machine. At first glance, it feels very similar to the iPhone. The position of the handset and the front camera is not centered, but it is close to the top of the fuselage. The small screen M1 will be better. Symmetrical side key position also moved upward

Put together with the iPhone6S Plus, it's really like, no wonder friends quipped that this is the most iPhone-like mobile phone in the Eastern Hemisphere, slightly more on the M1L, the front panel is more white than the iPhone.

M1L is equipped with 4080 mAh large capacity battery, the body is not very thin

Round the Home key this controversy is relatively large, the old Luo said that the pre-fingerprint is not round or round waist (in fact, MOTO Z square is not bad ah), eventually the old Luo chose to pay tribute to the apple, before the release of Mito M6 also used a round Home button, it is estimated that there will follow manufacturers follow-up. This Home button integrates the power switch, lock screen, and fingerprint unlock function. Operational logic and Meizu's mBack, touch back to the previous menu, press to return to the main menu, double-click is a multi-tasking interface, before Meizu mobile phone has not been used, a few days down, this operation is really good, as for the patent Meizu It seems to have been looking for Lao Luo to tear open

M1L's Home key outer ring made a decorative ring, so it is not flat, slightly raised, the entire Home key is smaller than the iPhone's one, the actual area of fingerprint unlocked area is also smaller than the iPhone, press feel not as good as iPhone It is crisp and less resilient. The Home button on my desk did not appear to be loose on the Internet and the card key is present. At present, there is no case where the paint is missing in one week.

The black border of the screen is larger than that of the iPhone, but it is much better than that of the ID borderless model.

The handset continued the classical design of the hammer, integrated distance and light sensors, and the visual effect was good, but it was very general. When the screen brightness is turned on automatically, the response of the light sensor is a little nervous. When the room light is not changing, sometimes the screen will flicker and then enter the room where the light is not on. Sometimes the screen brightness does not decrease, sometimes the screen brightness. Lowered, but the naked eye can obviously feel the darkening of the screen at the primary level, which is unnatural and linear. Check the Internet, from T1 to T2 to nuts have always had this problem, has not been resolved. There is a hidden light to the right of the handset

The front 2.5D glass arc is very small, and there is no plastic edging between the transitions to the metal frame. Fortunately, the seams are uniform. No breakpoints border work is good. In addition, after I unpacked the M1L, I noticed that there were black marks on the plastic rim of the earphone hole and the charging port, which can be seen on the chart. I do not know whether it was a factory inspection. In the actual experience, M1L sound quality is still good, open the Hifi sound effects after inserting the headphones, the sound is clearly transparent, and found M1L is incompatible with the State Bank version of the Apple EarPods headset (three black plug) Go to no sound, Hong Kong version EarPods headphones can be used normally (three white circle plug)

If it is a mirror stainless steel version, the entire metal frame is polished and bright, there will be no CNC polishing and frosting combined visual effects, the edge of the frame does not seem to be more rounded rounded corners, hand sensing will be better (picture from the network Unpacking

The bottom layout is similar to that of the nuts. The openings of the speaker and microphone are polished. The mesh cover inside the hole is metal, and the texture is good. The headphone hole and the charging port are all made of plastic edging (small-screen M1 microphone and speaker resolution is 3 Hole and 4 holes), the figure can be seen slightly higher than the front panel Home button

Noise reduction mic in the top left corner of the fuselage

The button on the right side of the fuselage is relatively loose, there will be audible sounds, as reflected in the online, not an example, hope that the batch behind the production can improve it, many people back out for this reason

This M1 supports dual card dual standby, the left button slot is not loose and tight, but the keys on both sides are very short, and the feedback is not strong.

The work of the slot button is still very exquisite, the green dot represents the positive, there is a dumb plug design

The back of this time is different from the previous hammer mobile phone, changes are relatively large, the overall layout and Meizu MX3, ZUK Z1 more like, if you remove the back of the logo, the recognition is very low. The black spot below the camera is a laser focusing unit. The rear shell is made of high-gloss plastic similar to millet 4 and has a certain degree of curvature. It looks like glass. The visual effect is still good, but the touch and texture on the hand is general, slightly cheaper, and it is easy to get fingerprints. Wear resistance is also generally estimated, if you can later out some shell stickers just fine. The seam between the back shell and the metal frame is not uniform, and the gap between the top and bottom right corners is slightly larger.

The camera has four-axis optical image stabilization function, slightly raised, metal lens protection ring made a circle of concentric circles of texture, it will feel a bit cut hands. The following laser focus parts and flash do not feel smooth

The new shape of the back is no longer suitable for the original huge hammer logo, was reduced to the lower body

Out of the box, M1L's shape design is quite satisfactory, and it feels good to hold it in the hand. It has a kind of thick feeling and it will take a little time for a long time. Workmanship and materials are not in line with the pricing, especially the plastic back cover, now a lot of thousands of machines are metal back cover, the overall lack of T1, T2 kind of exquisite feeling, the entire ID design makes me feel M1 series may and nuts mobile phone The same is an ODM product. From the standpoint of cost and yield, the biggest output should be the white matt aluminum alloy version.

Second, camera performance

The M1 series sensor is the Sony IMX318, 22.5 million pixels, f2.0 aperture, built-in three-axis electronic image stabilization, hammer added an additional four-axis optical image stabilization (the same Nubian Z11 miniS and millet Note2 using IMX318 sensor There is no optical image stabilization, laser, phase, contrast 3 focus modes, single-pixel size 1 micron, the actual performance, see the next proofs comparison. Comparing Huawei P9 models, the samples were automatically taken in automatic mode (the picture quality is the highest, P9 color mode is standard), the watermark is Huawei P9, and there is no watermark for the hammer M1L. The rain in Nanjing these days, I just took some pictures on the way to the food on the market for your reference.

1, the first set of photos two mobile phones to shoot the effect of the difference is quite large, the actual color of flowers and green leaves is the color of the right Huawei P9 shot, M1L color photographed out of white balance is not accurate, more serious color cast , shot a few times is this effect

2, the second group M1L is still a serious cast color

3. The effect of the third group of two mobile phones is very similar. The white balance and color are basically the same as the naked eye.

4, the fourth group M1L continue metering is not allowed, color cast

The paint on the wall of the fifth group M1L was closer to the actual color, but the sky was overexposure. It was raining at the time. The sky was the grey of the right Huawei.

The sixth group of photos M1L white balance and color performance is relatively normal, the walls and green leaves are closer to the real scene, the upper right corner of the building's exposure control is slightly better than the P9

After the seventh group enters the farm, the metering performance of the M1L seems to be a little more stable, the color cast is no longer so serious, and the color is cooler than the P9.

The eighth group in the more complex light environment, M1L photo brightness is lower than the P9, the color is also cold

The eighth group has similar performance, P9 is better in glare control

Ninth group M1L metering underexposure, cooler colors, P9 more real

The tenth group this M1L performance is more real, P9 some overexposed

The imaging effect of the 11th machine is very similar

The twelfth group M1L is still cold

The thirteenth group is similar in color, and the M1L blur is better

The fourteenth group of dim light scenes, the first one is the M1L automatic mode shooting, because the sensor's single pixel size is only 1 micron, before the film is estimated that the dark light performance will not be too good, indeed, noise is also more. The second one is the P9 automatic mode shooting, which is brighter than the actual light environment actually seen by the naked eye. The noise control is good, the picture is relatively clean, the details of the bicycle can be seen, and the performance is still very good. The third shot is the M1L night scene, close to the real light, but still a lot of noise

Because it's not convenient to go out and shoot the night scene in the rain and night, more sample comparisons are given to the valued friends who participated in the test. M1L's camera operation is still relatively convenient, but also provides a professional mode, in actual use, the screen brightness will automatically become the brightest when taking pictures, the screen brightness is dark when you finish browsing photos, giving a kind of see The feeling of non-acquisition, M1L focus speed is not bad, faster than the P9, but not very fast, pull the bellows situation is still some, in dark light is more obvious. Through the comparison of proofs, we can also find that the white balance, metering and color reproduction of the M1L camera are erratic, good or bad, and the parameters are all good. However, the actual performance is not so stable, and the colors are also cooler. This may be a hammer. The camera adjustment is not done well, I hope the latter can be optimized. After zooming in, the details are still good. After all, the pixels are there. The size of the photos taken at the highest quality is between 10mb and 12mb. The performance of the dark light is somewhat unsatisfactory. This may be related to the inherent deficiency of the IMX318 sensor. After all, the single pixel size is too small, this year's mainstream flagship model of the camera pixels in the 1200W-1600W, are not pursuing high pixels, more is the choice of single-pixel size sensor, if M1L this time with the millet 5S IMX378 just fine, just released millet Note2 is also using the IMX318 sensor, with the future use of this sensor more manufacturers, the late dark performance may be a little better, hope that is the case.

Third , the system

The M1L is equipped with the latest Smartisan OS 3.0 system. After a few simple settings, the phone can be activated.

Supports quick replacement of other models of hammers, providing accident insurance and extended warranty. Two warranty service products, I did not buy

Fingerprint input about 12 times, up to support five groups of fingerprints, and support information screen through fingerprints quickly open Alipay and WeChat payment page (do not set the usual unlocked fingerprint). The default fingerprint unlocking logic is the same as the iPhone 6/6S. After pressing the Home button, the screen is unlocked and unlocked. You can also choose to touch the Home button to unlock it. After you turn on this function, the body will be shaken and the vibration feedback will not be very good. Can not be closed, the unlocking speed is still very fast, the recognition rate is also very high, also need to verify the fingerprint or enter the password when shutting down

The factory version is version V3.0.0. The three major features of the conference will appear after the system is updated: XFee voice input, bigbang and one-step.

After the system is updated, the input method can be used to select the signal input method.

The voice recognition rate is still very high, the default is "Putonghua", also provides more than a dozen dialect input, I also tried to use Nanjing dialect, select "Putonghua" than "Nanjing dialect" recognition rate is higher and more accurate, the video is as follows
