First, the preface: a thousand yuan god machine with a long endurance
Looking back at the upcoming 2021 mobile phone market, the three words of crisis can be said to have been hanging over every domestic manufacturer.
In addition to external factors such as the epidemic, consumers are becoming more and more rational, and their tastes are becoming more and more picky, and the previous methods of stacking configuration and piecing together appearances have been difficult to make. If you want to continue to survive, manufacturers must launch products that can fully meet the different needs of the market and users.
On the other hand, with the continuous efforts of chip manufacturers in recent years, the overall performance of mobile phones has come to a bottleneck period, of course, this has also brought new vitality to the previous weak thousand yuan file, and the actual experience can easily rival the previous mid-range or even sub-flagship.
The vivo Y55S we got this time is a very typical new generation of thousand yuan products.
Vivo Y55S does not crazy pile hardware, but the focus on endurance, volume, photography and other aspects, after all, unlike the flagship machine, the positioning of the thousand yuan file is not "performance", but "easy to use", if you can do a good job of use to the top level, it is also a good mobile phone.
The vivo Y55S we got is Mirror Lake Blue, the back of the phone uses a high-light transparent coating process, the look and feel is very transparent, and there will be different colors flowing in direct light.
On the front of the phone is a 6.58-inch waterdrop screen, resolution 2400 * 1080, screen material LCD, support PDC-P3 color gamut, more details display, but also has a 180Hz touch sampling rate, can properly take into account the game experience.
Vivo Y55S also debuted the night reading mode, the minimum brightness can be adjusted to 1nit, compared to the traditional dark mode, the brightness is reduced by 50%, and the phone supports the eye protection mode that can reduce the blue light content, the use at night is more friendly, you can brush the drama before going to bed, read books, chat.
The mobile phone is equipped with a 7nm process of Tianji 700 octa-core processor, running memory of 8GB + 4GB, of which 8GB is physical running memory, the extra 4GB is memory fusion technology, "borrowed" from the hard disk, can be integrated with physical running memory into 12GB running memory, daily use can carry more APP in the background, to avoid repeated cold start.
The battery capacity of 6000mAh is even more outstanding, the actual endurance will definitely surprise you, and the 18W fast charging daily is basically enough.
In addition, the vivo Y55S is equipped with vivo's customized new generation of super speakers, compared with the first generation of super speakers, the equivalent sound cavity volume is about 8% higher than that of the first generation of super speakers, the sound port area is larger, and the sound performance can be softer.
The following are the detailed parameters of the vivo Y55S:
Second, the appearance: high-gloss translucency coating process glass back cover
The front of the vivo Y55S is equipped with a waterdrop screen, and the left and right borders and the upper part are almost equal in width.
We received the Mirror Lake Blue version, which seems to have some bumps at the edges, but is actually just the reflection of the phone's beveled bezel.
The earpiece of the mobile phone is almost combined with the border, and the whole is very hidden, and it is almost impossible to see without looking closely.
The back cover design of the high-gloss translucent coating process makes the vivo Y55S not look like a thousand yuan file, and the transparent color and color flow have a hint of the feeling of the flagship machine.
The rear camera module is surrounded by a circle of stepped sequins, and inside are two huge lenses, of which the main camera pixel is 50 million and the macro lens pixel is 2 million.
Silver, blue, purple in the light of the continuous flow, is also the more popular design at the moment, but because it is a glass back cover, daily use will inevitably be contaminated with fingerprints.
The phone's physical buttons are concentrated in a bezel, from top to bottom are volume keys and power keys with integrated fingerprint function.
Probably for blind exercises in everyday use, the volume keys are slightly higher than the bezel, while the power key fits perfectly with the bezel.
The top bezels of the phone have two noise reduction holes as well as a SIM card slot, which is not in the middle of the bezel, but is relatively close to the screen orientation.
There are more openings in the bottom of the phone, from left to right are 3.5mm headphone holes, noise reduction holes, Type-C interfaces and speakers.
Third, performance: comparable to the Snapdragon 750G daily smooth and stress-free
Tianji 700 is manufactured by TSMC 7nm process, integrating dual-core A76 and six-core A55 CPUs, with the highest frequencies of 2.2GHz and 2.0GHz, respectively, and integrated Mali-G57 MC2 GPU, which also supports 5G, and the maximum download rate can reach 2.77Gbps.
Coupled with 8/12GB of memory, content fusion technology, and 128/256GB of storage, the whole machine configuration has reached the mainstream level, ensuring smooth daily use without any problems.
--Master Lu
In the Lu Master test, the vivo Y55S scored 398500 points, which has surpassed 70% of users, of which the CPU score was 153430 points, the GPU score was 93468 points, the memory score was 66307 points, and the storage performance score was 85295 points.
The evaluation conclusion given by Master Lu is that the processor single-core computing power is medium and advanced, it will certainly not be the short board of the whole machine, the multi-core performance is powerful and unmatched, there is no program that you can't move, and the performance performance of the CPU commonly used projects can be entered.
The GPU review concluded that the 3D performance is very good, enough to control 99.99% of the mobile games on the market.
The storage performance is quite powerful, and the mainstream mid-to-high-end flagship product. The database structure is outstanding, and the solicitation system is correspondingly quite rapid.
——Geekbench
In the Geekbench 5 test, the single-core run score of the Tianji 700 is 508, and the multi-core run is 1668, which is almost the same level as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G.
——AndroBench
In the AndroBench test, the sequential read speed of the vivo Y55S is 945.21MB/s, and the sequential write speed is 229.91MB/s, which is basically the standard speed of UFS 2.1.
Game: "Glory of Kings" 60 frames is very easy
We mentioned earlier that the current mobile phone performance has long been close to the bottleneck, thousands of yuan file can also have a good game experience, and now manufacturers for the game will have special optimization, let's take a look at the performance of vivo Y55S.
Turn on game mode during testing.
- "Glory of Kings"
In "Glory of Kings", we turn on high frame rate, high resolution, the frame rate fluctuations during the game process are around 2 frames, the highest 61 frames, the lowest 59 frames, there is no difference between the line period team battle.
—— League of Legends Mobile Edition
In the game "League of Legends Mobile Game Edition", we opened the performance mode, that is, high quality, high frame rate, the test results are still not too many accidents, the lowest frame is 57 frames, the highest frame is 61 frames, and there is no problem with smooth gameplay.
- "Sports Karting Mobile Game Edition"
Due to the large number of people and the fast pace of the game, this game is a great test of mobile phone hardware.
We set it to high image quality, high frame rate, the lowest frame 55 frames and the highest frame 61 frames throughout the game, even if it is a go-kart, it can be difficult to defeat the vivo Y55S.
- "Peace Elite"
In Peace Elite, we set it to HD quality and high frame rate, but due to game limitations, the vivo Y55S can only run to 30 frames, which is a very stable frame rate.
5. Take pictures: 50 million pixel main camera imaging
The rear camera module of the vivo Y55S has two lenses, which are the 50-megapixel main camera and the 2-megapixel macro.
For the thousand yuan file, the imaging brightness speed can meet the needs of many people, let's look at the sample.
The shooting time was around 4:30 p.m., and since the shooting location was in the north, this time in winter was close to evening, and the sun was close to setting.
From the imaging effect point of view, the performance of vivo Y55S is slightly unexpected, the lines on the stone pillars are fully expressed, the overall tone of the picture reveals a desolate beauty, and the distant afterglow reflects the high-rise building with the obvious bokeh effect, so that the main and secondary of the picture are very clear.
If you zoom in a little, you can still clearly see the texture on the stone pillar, and the branches on the background of the picture have slight smear marks, but you can't see it at all.
Manually setting the focus to the background, the overall brightness and tone of the picture do not change strongly.
The imaging of vivo Y55S does not deliberately turn up the brightness, but the original picture is completely retained, and the picture layering performance is excellent, but it is inevitable that there will be excessive performance of bokeh after enlargement, which is also in line with the positioning of the thousand yuan file.
The phone's control over the tone of the picture is quite good, even if the focus point is manually adjusted many times, there is no color distortion.
In macro mode, excessive contrast increases cause the color to begin to distort, and the surrounding wood chips even begin to glow turquoise.
The image below is when macro mode is not turned on, and it is obvious that the color difference between the two modes can be seen.
For the thousand yuan file, the night beat can not ask for too much, although the performance of vivo Y55S is not amazing, but the daily recording of night scenes is not much of a problem, the overall basic restoration of the night scene, but the strong light suppression is slightly difficult.
In the environment with slightly weaker light, the imaging effect of vivo Y55S began to appear faint, the details were blurred, it can be clearly seen that vivo Y55S deliberately increased the exposure when responding to the night shooting environment, of course, this practice is also a common practice in the current thousand yuan file, vivo Y55S chose the most secure imaging method.
6. Battery life and others: can be used continuously for one day
- Battery life
The battery capacity of vivo Y55S has reached an extremely rare 6000mAh, and due to the built-in intelligent power saving function, the battery life will be much better than the same price mobile phone, let's take a look at the actual performance.
We use the battery dog APP produced by Fast Technology, which can simulate the daily use of users, including browsing the web, watching videos and playing games at full capacity, which is basically equivalent to medium and high-intensity continuous use of mobile phones.
In our actual test, continuous use of 16 hours, 39 minutes and 44 seconds, a total of 80% of the power consumption, converted to full power can last about 20 hours.
Such a long battery life, to be honest, a bit of a refresh of cognition, daily intermittent use, two days a charge without pressure, mild use can even adhere to almost three days.
- Volume
As a mobile phone that can turn on the volume to 200%, the vivo Y55S has built-in exclusive customized super speakers, and also has a flagship super amplitude, let's take a look at the specific effect.
In our test, the volume is fast to 100% time decibel test data of 56dB, and when the volume is turned on to 200%, the data reaches 71dB, which has greatly exceeded the volume range of ordinary mobile phones 50dB.
VII. Summary: The distinctive characteristics of the thousand-yuan strong aircraft The endurance is too exaggerated
Overall, vivo Y55S is a very distinctive mobile phone, the overall configuration in the thousand yuan grade in the middle of the upward level, and Snapdragon 750G the same level of Tianji 700 processor plus the maximum 8G + 4G running memory, can make vivo Y55S show a smooth experience beyond the price.
In the game test, whether it is "Glory of the King" or "Run Kart Mobile Game Version", it has not been able to defeat vivo Y55S, and during the testing process, the frame rate fluctuation of the game is extremely small, in most cases, the fluctuation frame rate is within 4 frames, and the common game cannot create any pressure for vivo Y55S.
As a thousand yuan file, vivo Y55S daytime photography performance can be said to be quite amazing, the color control is in place, even if the focus is changed many times, it is difficult to overexpose and color distortion problems, which can be liked.
Although the night performance is not as good as the daytime experience, after all, vivo Y55S is a thousand yuan file, worthy of its own value.
The most profound thing about vivo Y55S is naturally the 6000mAh super capacity battery and super battery life. Today, in 2021, it is difficult to imagine that a mobile phone can do continuous high-load testing for 16 hours and 30 minutes with 20% of the power left, and the whole process is expected to even last for 20 hours, but the vivo Y55S has done it.
On the whole, vivo Y55S is a thousand yuan file with balanced overall configuration and quite outstanding advantages, if you also have battery anxiety, the next mobile phone knows how to choose it.
