Considering that he hadn't done a flagship mobile phone evaluation for a long time, the Huawei Mate 9 series recently won various awards abroad, and there were no moments in the limelight. However, Mate 9 seems to have been sung by valued friends. I also think Mate 9 does not mean much. If you don't do two or two, then play big and come up with higher-end ones! So today we have brought this Huawei Mate 9 Pro evaluation, take a look at this domestic mobile phone priced at 4699/5299 yuan, how exactly?
Mate 9 Pro is full of packaging design, gold HUAWEI MATE 9 words are very low-key, low-key to not be careful not see, with the box on the delicate CD lines, it is very delicate.
The bright red Leica "Cola" is very eye-catching and even more conspicuous than Huawei's own logo. This is the first time that the Mate series has introduced dual cameras.
As a flagship, Mate 9 Pro accessories are very kind. In addition to the standard three-piece set, there is also a headset, a Type-C interface, and a mobile phone (forget it). Although the cost of the play accessories is not high, it gives the user a feeling of “luxuryâ€.
Mate 9 Pro is equipped with Huawei's newly developed SuperCharge charger, and the matching charging head is not small. Supports 4.5V/5A and 5V/4.5A two-speed charging, the highest power 22.5W, the specific charging effect I will mention later.
On the front design, Mate 9 Pro has a little Samsung's shadow, but it is not the same. Equipped with a 5.5-inch hyperbolic 2K screen, although the curvature is not large, but it is also Huawei's first dual-screen mobile phone. As Mate 9 Pro switched to positive questioning recognition, the corresponding HUAWEI Logo was also moved to the top.
Huawei has always favored screen virtual buttons. This has been a long time. This time Mate 9 Pro used the frontal fingerprint recognition button for the first time, and left and right also matched two capacitive keys. However, this fingerprint recognition button is similar to one plus three and cannot be pressed. In addition, if you look closely, you can see very fine horizontal lines on the front panel of Mate 9 Pro. This makes the front of Mate 9 Pro appear to have a special gloss.
The IDless borderless design that has been used for many years is also a big slot in the Mate series, including Mate 9 which also has "big black borders". Fortunately, the Mate 9 Pro survived and did not use the ID borderless design. The width of the measured black border + border is 3.25mm, which is a step backward from Mate 8 (2.94mm). However, because Mate 9 Pro does not have a large black border design, it is actually much stronger than Mate 8.
On the back, Mate 9 Pro was finally used (has been used by thousands of machines) nano-injection molding process. The metal on the back is a drawing process, which is very characteristic but not necessarily loved by everyone; the touch tends to be creamy and easy to leave fingerprints. The secondary microphone, dual color temperature light, dual camera, and laser focus module are lined up. The back cover has a certain edge design, visually thin, and comfortable to hold.
The Mate 9 Pro's speaker, Type-C, and 3.5mm headphone jacks are located underneath the body. The headphone port is located below the person is more like, so when using the mobile phone to listen to the song and put the pocket, it will be more convenient.
The top of the fuselage has nothing but an infrared emission port, which is very simple. Also from this point of view you can see the Mate 9 Pro's body has a certain degree of curvature, but it is not very large.
The volume and power buttons are located on the right side of the camera. If you look closely, you will find CD lines on the power button. This allows the power button and the volume button to have a subtle difference in touch, to the extent that mistakes are avoided.
The card slot is located on the right side of the fuselage and uses an integral molding process, which is closely combined with the body. Support Netcom dual Nano-SIM card, but does not support memory card expansion. It is worth mentioning that this time Mate 9 series no longer distinguishes between the network version, only the entire network.
Overall, as a member of the Mate series, Mate 9 Pro's face value is quite good throughout the series. Removing the big black border, using frontal fingerprint recognition, and adding the double-curtain screen all make the Mate 9 Pro add a lot of color, but this is limited to the Mate series. If you look at the entire mobile phone market, Mate 9 Pro's design, feel is only quite satisfactory. Perhaps this is the "business style" that Huawei is pursuing?
Huawei's first cooperation with Leica on the P9 has won a good harvest of word-of-mouth sales. It is also expected that the Leica Logo will be seen again on Mate 9 Pro. However, the dual camera combination of the Mate 9 series is very interesting, the main camera 12 million pixels, responsible for the color part; vice camera 20 million pixels, can only capture black and white images, and the common symmetrical color + black and white combination is not the same. In addition Mate 9 Pro's main camera has optical image stabilization. Above the lens is a dual color temperature light, below is a laser focus module.
The first scene, green leaves safflower in a well-lit environment. Mate 9 Pro's white balance is slightly cold, causing the green of the leaves to be less "positive"; the exposure is slightly more aggressive and the picture looks brighter. Look closely at the color of the petal edge, slightly pinkish, and brighter, and the rendering control is reasonable. There is no saturation overflow, the color orientation is biased to please the eye.
The second scene, the vision of outdoor contrast. At first glance, Mate 9 Pro's photo looks a bit "dark." But if you look closely, you will find that the contrast is actually low. As you can see, the sky of the LX100 is basically a high-gloss overflow, but Huawei's sky still retains a lot of cloud details. The guess here is that Mate 9 Pro is a dual-camera compositor that acts like HDR. Ultimately, Mate 9 Pro has a better dynamic range in high-contrast scenarios, but the corresponding loss of sense of hierarchy.
The third scene, detail texture test. Photos of Mate 9 Pro feel very sharp when zoomed out, especially when viewed on a mobile phone screen. After zooming in to 100%, you will see that the Mate 9 Pro's lens resolution does not seem particularly good (of course, it may be related to the lower pixel of the photosensitive element), but later sharpening is very "force." Of course, considering that daily use is based on thumbnails, few people will zoom in to 100% viewing. Sharpening such Mate 9 Pro as a whole still outweighs disadvantages.
Then there is a group of nighttime street scenes. It can be seen that the Mate 9 Pro's optical image stabilization has obviously played a role, and the shutter speed is still 1/4s. With dual-camera synthesis, the brightness of the picture is good, and the detail performance is also OK. However, the contrast of the overall picture is low and the saturation is also low, making the picture look less clear. It is worth noting that many yellow color patches appeared on the frame of the yellow yellow car that Mate 9 Pro produced. Here I guess it is because Mate 9 Pro "color + black and white" two lenses in the process of two-shot synthesis, due to the algorithm is not perfect, leading to the loss of this part of the color information / distortion.
Finally, there is a group of darker hands, Mate 9 Pro's picture details, contrast, and color saturation have declined. However, the screen still maintains a very high brightness. It can be seen that Mate 9 Pro's night view optimization idea is very simple and crude: sacrifice other, ensure brightness. The reason may be that in the first half of 2016, the night view of P9 was crushed by S7's strength in all major evaluations. Huawei, which is eager for success, chose this relatively aggressive optimization solution in the Mate 9 series. Of course, this idea has its merits. For most users, dips in dark light are mainly used for recording and sharing purposes. The brighter picture is very favorable.
In summary, the photo effect of Mate 9 Pro, although there are many areas in the details need to be optimized. However, the picture quality of the overall performance is not bad. It is no problem to be ranked in the domestic first echelon. In particular, to get rid of the common problem of domestic mobile phone "night blindness", even under dark light will not be a dark, or full of screen noise. It is worth mentioning that there are already many mobile phones with f/1.7 large aperture cameras, while Mate 9 Pro uses only f/2.2. Achieving this effect with less aperture is even more valuable.
The Huawei Mate 9 Pro is equipped with a 5.5-inch Super AMOLED screen from Samsung. With a resolution of 2K, naturally there will be no problem with large particles. The color temperature of the screen under the default setting is about 6800K, and the look and feel is very good. There is no problem like some domestic A-screen mobile phones are as cold and reddish. However Mate
9 Pro This screen has no color management, so there is also the problem of high saturation and inaccurate colors. The viewing angle is fairly good in the A screen, but it is only slightly yellowish at extreme angles, and there is no serious color cast. The only downside is that the maximum brightness is not enough, just outside the glare is barely able to see.
(Motion in the WiFi environment) Mate 9 Pro's "hyperboloid" curvature is very small. Icons and texts are not distorted when they cross the edges of the screen. From this point of view, what Mate 9 Pro uses is supposed to be a so-called “false-curtain screen,†that is, only glass is curved.
Thanks to Super AMOLED's high contrast and wide color gamut, watching videos and playing games with Mate 9 Pro is particularly suitable. It is worth mentioning that the Mate 9 Pro also uses a "dual-speaker" design similar to the iPhone 7, which means that the speaker and handset can be heard at the same time. Say you might not believe that the Mate 9 Pro's external mid-to-low volume (within 8 cells) is close to my favorite Moto Smartboost: the treble is not sharp, the midrange is full, and there is a certain bass. After more than 8 squares, the sound quality began to deteriorate as the volume increased, but no breaks occurred. For a cell phone that is only 7.5mm thick, it is already very valuable.
In summary, in the video entertainment, Mate 9 Pro is good. The bright and fine Super AMOLED screen plus good sound effects, used to watch videos, play games have a good experience. However, as a flagship handset, Huawei should consider adding a color management system to Mate 9 Pro. Otherwise, the color distortion caused by oversaturation will cause great trouble to browse webpages and view pictures.
Like Mate7 and 8, these two generations of mobile phones have excellent endurance, which is also an important reason for the popularity of Huawei's Mate series. The Huawei Mate 9 Pro uses the new Kirin 960 chip. And this time, the Mate series finally bid farewell to the baseband of the plug-in, and for the first time used the full Netcom baseband of Huawei. With 4000mA large battery and more power-saving Super AMOLED screen. From the hardware point of view, Mate 9 Pro should have good endurance.
However, the measured results were quite unexpected. After 4 hours of daily operation, plus 8 hours of standby, only 61% remained. That is, the medium intensity is used for almost one day; if it is used heavily or the game player, it may be less than one day. If you don't know what the concept of 61% is, see the picture below:
In several of my recently tested phones, Mate 9 Pro's endurance capability is as strong as Xplay 5. Even with the glory of the same door 5C (Kirin 650, 3000 mAh battery) there is a big gap. The problem with Mate 9 Pro is that the game consumes an amazing amount of power, and 23% of the electricity is lost in one-hour games (small stand-alone 3D games). In addition to power consumption, the heat of Mate 9 Pro games is exaggerated. At room temperature of 17°C, the game will start warming for 15 minutes, and it will be too hot for 30 minutes. This heat makes it hard for me to believe that this is a mobile phone using a 16nm FinFET+ process chip.
Life is not enough, fast charge to scrape together. Huawei’s flagship generation of Mate 9 gave up its original FCP fast charging protocol and switched to fast charging technology called “SuperChargeâ€. SuperCharge is a bit similar to VOOC/DASH Flash Charger. All of them use low-voltage + high-current mode. They also need a dedicated charging head and charging cable to achieve fast charging. However, Huawei's SuperCharge's charging voltage and current are adjustable, while VOOC/DASH only has a variable current.
In actual charging speed, Mate 9 Pro charges 20% in the first 10 minutes, 58% in 30 minutes, and 100 minutes in full. SuperCharge does not have much advantage in total charging speed. However, in the first half of charging, SuperCharge will charge faster. In addition, during the entire charging process, the body has no obvious heat, which has obvious advantages over other high voltage and fast charging schemes.
In conclusion, the Mate 9 Pro has a good hand in life, but it has hit a flesh. I was shocked by the exaggerated heat and power consumption in the game. Is this really a Huawei mobile phone? I would be more than happy to believe that this is the system's scheduling mechanism is not perfect, I hope to improve the battery life through the firmware update. Fortunately, good SuperCharge fast charge to this phone to restore some face, filling fast and not warm, worthy of recognition!
(Please look at the picture in the WiFi environment.) Although this is Huawei's first use of pre-fingerprint recognition, the efficiency and speed of recognition is not bad at all. After eliminating the cutscenes, it was basically "on the fly." It was very refreshing. Moreover, the success rate of recognition is also very high, and there are rare cases of failure. As for fingerprint payment, the Mate 9 series also only supports Alipay and does not support WeChat.
Mate 9 Pro is equipped with EMUI 5.0 based on Android 7.0. The change in this new system is still quite obvious, it is said that former Apple designer Abigail Brody participated in the design of EMUI. But IMHO, I think there is a big problem in the design of EMUI 5.0, mainly reflected in the inconsistency of its style. For example, most of the EMUI 5.0 interface uses a flat design, but the desktop icons are not compatible with the system. The icon of the rounded rectangle is also added to the meaning of the unknown, shading similar to the oil painting, very redundant. There are also many system applications that lack a unified style and operational logic and are not listed here. However, considering that EMUI 5.0 has just been launched soon, we hope that the follow-up can continue to improve!
Although the design style is almost meaningless, the function of EMUI 5.0 is still very complete. Based on the EMUI 4.1, the new system has added many useful and fun functions. Such as directional recording, smart screen captures, student mode, etc., making Mate 9 Pro's playability greatly increased
Huawei is one of the few manufacturers in China that attaches great importance to NFC applications. After Xiaomi, Huawei also launched a mobile bus card function, which currently supports four cities. With the Huawei Pay Pay feature, Huawei's NFC application has been perfected.
In addition, EMUI 5.0 still continues the fine tradition of EMUI. Many non-core applications that come with the system can be uninstalled. For example, apps such as compass and game center can be uninstalled freely. Give the user the right to choose the application, it is worth affirming
In summary, although EMUI 5.0 has been greatly changed from 4.1, there is still much room for improvement in design style. However, the function is very rich, especially the mobile phone bus card and powerful recording function is very novel and practical.
advantage:
Pre-fingerprint, double-curved design, Mate series face value
Headphones, mobile phone shells, adapters, comes with a wide range of accessories
Unicorn 960 with EMUI 5.0, running very smooth
The screen display effect is good, may be the best A screen domestic machine
"Dual-speaker" design delivers superior playback
Fingerprint recognition is highly efficient and has additional features
Support Huawei Pay, electronic bus card, NFC function is perfect.
EMUI 5.0 brings many useful new features
Very good photo effect, dark light performance
SuperCharge charging speed is good, the heat is very low
Disadvantages:
The fuselage easy to leave fingerprints, the screen curvature is small, the metal wire drawing beauty ugly sees
When the game heat, life is not ideal
The lack of color management screen; brightness, low outdoor visibility is poor
Camera exposure orientation is more aggressive and dual camera synthesis needs to be optimized
The price is higher, almost equal to foreign brands competing products (4699/5299 yuan)
Recently touched so many mobile phones, Mate 9 Pro is probably the mobile phone that made me feel the most pros and cons. If it is not a big fever and it is fatal, I may prefer this phone. The performance in all aspects is excellent, and it can fully represent the highest level of domestic mobile phones.
But practically speaking, Mate 9 Pro's pricing is not low, and S7 edge, iPhone 7 in the same price. After disregarding various psychological factors, how attractive can Mate 9 Pro be to these top international competitors? At least from my point of view, Huawei's appearance, system, screen, and photographing are still very different from the "world-class." In terms of strength alone, I think Mate 9 Pro cannot afford to support its pricing.
For purchase advice, if you have special business needs or want to support domestic products, Mate 9 Pro may be the best choice in the 5000 yuan file. However, if you are just a regular user and want to buy a flagship mobile phone, you can use it happily. It's easy to handle. Samsung's Apples are picking on the spot. It's probably a better choice.
Well, today's evaluation is here. Regarding Huawei Mate 9 Pro, if you want to know anything, welcome to communicate with me in the comments. Like my article, don't forget to like it + collect it! With better results, we will see you in the next period
