I don't know if it is affected by the Impact of the Red Devil 7 series, the iQOO 9 Pro that has just been released has actually reduced the price by 300 yuan, which makes friends who have just purchased mobile phones for more than a month inevitably understand. But from the perspective of product competition, it can also be understood. Take the newly released Red Magic 7 Pro and iQOO 9 Pro, the iQOO 9 Pro was 200 yuan higher than the Red Devil 7 Pro before the price reduction, and after the price reduction, it was 100 yuan less than it. At first glance, it is quite a bit of a tit-for-tat (bushi) flavor. So these two high-performance flagships, for users who is more worthy of choice? Let's take a quick look:
Before starting, we listed the core configuration information that everyone paid attention to in the form of a table, as well as the fast charging scheme and the price, so that everyone could compare. The table can see that the two have their own strengths, so next, we will focus on the core performance tuning of the two mobile phones:
The performance is very strong, the next era flagship is undeniable, and the tuning is different
In terms of core configuration, both mobile phones are equipped with Snapdragon 8+LPDDR 5+UFS 3. Top performance three-piece combination, whether it is running points or game performance is the top existence. But the two are very different in terms of ideas for chip performance development. On the basis of using high-performance hardware, the Red Devil 7 Pro is equipped with an Arc performance enhancement system, which comprehensively improves the magic WRITE fast read and write technology, RAM BOOST memory acceleration technology, and MAGIC GPU image enhancement technology of the core of the mobile phone. The advantage of this optimization is that it can guarantee a stable and powerful output for a long time, and maintain a consistent performance output even after a long time of playing the game.
The iQOO 9 Pro takes a different approach in terms of performance optimization, equipped with a unique chip Pro. However, this chip is mainly designed to improve the display performance of the game, through the interpolation of frames to share the GPU rendering pressure, you can use a high frame rate while slowing down the load of the GPU, thereby reducing power consumption, to ensure the smoothness of the screen.
However, after going to the examination room, the limits of the two are still different, in comparison, the output of the underlying CPU performance, there is no further expansion of the export volume, in the face of the game phone's "big examiner" "Original God", the overall performance is weaker than the Red Devils 7 Pro. The test data of the netizens in the following figure:
According to the above set of data, we can see that the Red Devil 7 Pro has the best comprehensive operation performance among the Snapdragon 8 flagship mobile phones. Compared with the iQOO 9 Pro, the power consumption is only slightly higher, but with this extra power consumption, it is in a leading position in terms of average frame rate, jitter number and temperature control. This also means that in the flagship mobile phones of the same level, the Red Devil 7 Pro has a stronger and more stable game performance performance, and can better grasp various use scenarios. Of course, for friends who do not have the obsession of "Original God", the performance of iQOO 9 Pro is also enough to be used normally in game competitions.
Heat dissipation design is the magic weapon to suppress the dragon chip, and there is a difference between passive heat dissipation and active heat dissipation
In fact, in the final analysis, the difference between the two mobile phones in the operation of the game is inseparable from the difference in the heat dissipation scheme.
In terms of heat dissipation, the Red Devil 7 Pro is equipped with the new ICE Magic Cold Cooling System 9.0. The system has built-in high-speed centrifugal fan, 4124mm² super VC heat dissipation plate, aerospace grade heat dissipation materials, ultra-flexible high thermal conductivity rare earth and other 9 layers of heat dissipation structure, the total heat dissipation material area is as high as 41279mm², increasing the speed of up to 20000 rpm / minute of active cooling fan and canyon air duct, back 45 ° angle opening, air inlet design is reasonable, can greatly improve the ventilation efficiency of mobile phone heat dissipation. The more active heat dissipation, the more you can drop 1 °C more than the opponent, you can get more stable frame rate.
iQOO 9 Pro brings eighteen layers of cascading VC stereoscopic cooling system, which can dissipate heat from the entire phone more efficiently and maintain stable and efficient operation. Even in the heat of battle, players are able to continue to respond steadily. However, compared with the Red Devil 7 Pro, pure passive heat dissipation is slightly at a disadvantage under extreme conditions, which is also a very important reason why the frame rate performance in the above "Original God" test is not as good as that of the Red Devil 7 Pro. But there is a saying that in a number of new Snapdragon 8 new machines, the passive heat dissipation of iQOO 9 Pro can also be regarded as a ceiling level.
The choice of screen has become a choice of more complete or more vivid
Screens are the window of information interaction that faces us the longest. In order to enhance the gamer's sense of game competition, the Red Devil 7 Pro is directly equipped with a UDC full screen, a complete screen without openings, which effectively takes into account the dual needs of mobile phone users for display and shooting. Whether it is a game screen, or a TV series, images, etc., it can be fully displayed. This is the first time that professional mobile phones use the off-screen camera solution, bringing a real full screen, I personally feel that this idea is right, gamers who would want their game screen to lack a piece? Whether it affects the operation or not.
The idea of iQOO 9 Pro is not the same, from the perspective of screen form, it is not "really comprehensive", but the center of the hole screen. But in terms of screen material, it has achieved the top in the industry, equipped with a ceiling-level E5 super retina screen, with a resolution of 2K, the display effect is also very good, although there is a hole in the game, but in the scene of watching videos, browsing pictures and other scenes, the color performance of pleasing the eyeballs can be said to be unparalleled.
A little more difference: the Red Devil 7 Pro uses a straight screen, which is obviously a gesture to hardcore gamers, while the micro-curved screen of the iQOO 9 Pro is more stylish, but friends who stink the game seem to love the straight screen more.
Multiple optimizations beyond the chip are the icing on the cake to make the game better
Now a mobile phone to say that it is a game phone, it is not enough to have powerful hardware, but also to see how much "customization" it has done for the game.
The Red Devils game phone has always had a shoulder button, this time the Red Devil 7 Pro will double independent IC shoulder key touch sampling rate increased to 500Hz, and directly equipped with a self-developed chip that can efficiently handle game control calculation tasks and adapt to learn players' game habits - Red Core No. 1. The chip is a mobile phone with a unique RGB lighting effect and DTS Ultra X surround sound effect, which can realize a fully immersive interactive game experience of sound, light, vibration and touch, allowing players to enjoy the immersive pleasure in the game. After the brand positioning transformation, iQOO began to weaken the concept of "game phone", and the shoulder button quietly disappeared a few generations ago, which is slightly regrettable. Although there is no shoulder button, but the innovative addition of "double pressure feeling under the screen", pressing the screen with different forces can stimulate more operations than "point" and "stroke", and the shock experience brought by the dual X-axis linear motor is the same as that of the Red Devil 7 Pro. It's just that I personally feel that the double pressure feeling under the screen needs to be learned and adapted, and the false trigger rate is quite large, really not as direct and natural as the independent shoulder button.
Under the same top-of-the-line hardware, different design orientations correspond to different groups of people
In fact, it is not difficult to see here that we do not necessarily have to divide the Red Devils 7 Pro and iQOO 9 Pro into wins and losses, because the design orientation of the two can be said to be not on the same track, and their only similarity is that they both use the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, with a powerful performance output.
The Red Devils 7 Pro is a player who goes all the way to the black in the game, and even in terms of e-sports, all the design or compromise is to strive for higher game performance, even if it is a few frames of improvement, such as the active fan can cool down better, but there will be some vibration and noise. It's a lot like a professional car that can get off the track or run a rally, it's all about speed, and the results are what it's all about.
The iQOO 9 Pro, using the car metaphor, it is also a high-performance car that can run very fast, but in terms of design orientation, it will take into account luxury and comfort, such as the E5-level curved screen, the look and feel is first-class, but competitive gamers are not suitable. It's more about balance.
So the conclusion is obvious: if you are a hardcore gamer and need the tools in your hands to the extreme, then the Red Devil 7 Pro, which constantly pursues the limits of competition, is your Heavenly Sword Dragon Slayer; and if you only want a high-performance flagship, the game is only occasional leisure entertainment, iQOO 9 Pro is such an all-round player.
Do not rule out the strength of friends, daily use of balanced flagship mobile phones, and prepare an e-sports-level game phone to play. For example, me.
