Looking back, Lenovo is not a newcomer in the field of e-sports mobile phones, counting today's protagonist, the "savior" e-sports mobile phone has been three generations in three years and three generations, and it has also made great achievements. Speaking of which, last year's Lenovo Savior E-sports Mobile Phone 2 Pro was called "the hero who came out last" - when the new machines of ERO, Red Devil, Black Shark and other e-sports brands in 2021 were marketed one by one, the rescuers chose to shoot, good food is not afraid of late, but after all, there is some "lost opportunity" taste, to catch up, or quite a bit of "Fermali".
Therefore, this year's rescuers have obviously accelerated the pace, although "first strike is strong" although it is not possible (the Red Devils' movements are faster than in previous years), but it can also be clearly felt that it has reached a more confident level in the pattern of competition, "since it is a good play, it is more pleasing to the public without the finale." In this way, the savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone has a deep competitive underpinning than the previous generation of works in terms of product concept and market positioning, and it is also more relaxed in the timing of release. After all, in recent years, it also has a group of its own loyal fans, in the basic platform computing power has long been not a bottleneck today, how to expand on the experience extension, how to set up a monument in the design of connotation, become the savior e-sports mobile phone needs to practice the core.
Our point of view has not changed, the military is expensive and not much, since Lenovo chose to carry out "precision strikes" in the field of e-sports mobile phones, rather than blindly participating in aircraft naval warfare, it is necessary to adhere to the implementation. Interestingly, this time the rescuer did not continue the naming rules of "e-sports mobile phone Pro", and the reference to "Y90 e-sports mobile phone" also has the intention of "new competition and new atmosphere" from a realistic point of view.
Calm down, keep calm
Previously, the Savior Esports Mobile Phone 2 Pro is equipped with the world's first and currently the industry's only dual turbofan supercharged liquid-cooled active and passive integrated mid-heat dissipation system - professional and rigorous, Lenovo gave this program a name, called "Feng", and hoped for it "mobile phone heat dissipation scheme transition work". Therefore, as a new generation, the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone has naturally maintained a very high level in the heat dissipation component. After all, e-sports mobile phones do not have a strong heat dissipation system to support, can not stand wei.
This time, the Savior Y90 esports phone is equipped with a fully evolved Frost Blade M cooling system. Specifically, its heat dissipation system, in addition to passive heat dissipation system heat such as graphene, liquid-cooled VC vaporized plate and ATA heat source central architecture, frost blade M heat dissipation system also has the active heat dissipation of double fins and double fans, 32 PC-grade heat dissipation fins, the thermal contact area is larger, bringing out more heat. The new Frost Blade M cooling system can increase the power consumption of 4W additionally, inherit the essence of the savior family of heat dissipation, and continue to lead the heat dissipation revolution of e-sports mobile phones.
The Savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone uses a 3520mm super liquid-cooled VC vaporized plate, and the passive total equivalent heat dissipation area is as high as 66849mm (the global heat dissipation area of the Savior Gaming Mobile Phone 2 Pro is 62573.58mm, you can compare it yourself). The rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone follows the previously acclaimed ATA mid-mounted heat dissipation architecture, and the heat source generated in the middle of the mobile phone will be quickly heated through this large area VC.
We noticed that the Rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone for the first time introduced active heat dissipation of double fin dual fan design on the mobile phone, 32 PC-grade heat dissipation fins, the heat exchange area increased by 1600mm, the maximum temperature difference of the air inlet was 25 °C, and the maximum air intake was 180.65cm/s, an increase of 300% compared with the previous generation. An additional 4W performance release can be improved. In addition, the fans of the Rescuer Y90 esports phones support self-cleaning.
In terms of temperature detection, the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone retains the 14 groups of NTC temperature sensors evenly distributed on the front and back of the fuselage of the previous generation, and the NTC temperature sensor can detect the temperature of SoC, camera, screen, hand holding area and other components in different scenarios, so that the whole machine can more accurately perceive the temperature of the fuselage, intelligently adjust the heat dissipation strategy, and reject invalid frequency reduction. At the same time, the NTC temperature sensor can be used with software algorithms to recalibrate the ambient temperature and adjust the power consumption and fan strategy at any time.
Thanks to ATA's excellent architecture design and the powerful cooling efficiency of the Frost Blade M cooling system, the Y90 can concentrate the high temperature area in the middle of the fuselage when playing games, which can ensure that the device is in the comfortable temperature range under the high load state of the game scene.
By the way, the Savior Y90 esports phone has three gear modes of energy saving, balance and beast, and we can choose the right gear according to the needs of the game. The three gears respond to different levels of game performance release and meet the needs of users. Among them, the mobile phone default equalization mode, the system itself matches the appropriate performance scheduling and fan speed, so as to bring the performance and heat dissipation scheduling that best matches the game.
The platform needs no words, full of blood
For the savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone, since it has decided to "fight in the e-sports field", then the "2022 flagship temperament" of its computing platform has no need to talk much. The new generation of Snapdragon 8 platform is unquestionable, LPDDR5 RAM, "full blood version" of UFS3.1 specification ROM, this combination is now the strongest level of Android platform that can be taken out, parameters and details do not need to talk more, you know.
The new generation of Snapdragon 8 SoC is designed for the ARMv9 instruction set 1+3+4 architecture and 4nm process process. The new generation of Snapdragon 8 SoC has a large core of Cortex-X2, a large core of Cortex-A710, and a small core of Cortex-A510. Compared with the previous generation, the CPU performance of the new generation of Snapdragon 8 SoC is increased by 20%, and the power consumption is reduced by 30% at the same performance; the new generation of Snapdragon 8 SoC integrates the latest Adreno GPU, which increases graphic rendering performance by 30% and reduces power consumption by 25% at the same performance. In official parlance, the Savior Y90 esports phone, starting from the new generation of Snapdragon 8 SoC, continues to explore the peak of mobile performance.
It is worth mentioning here that the new RAM+ROM architecture of the Rescuer Y90 esports phone is actually worth mentioning. The RAM architecture is designed for LPDDR5+ virtual memory, with a maximum operating memory capacity of 18GB of physical memory + 4GB of virtual memory, and the ROM architecture is a UFS3.1+ SSD RAID 0 disk array with a maximum capacity of 640GB. Compared with the regular UFS3.1, the top rescuer Y90 esports mobile phone's UFS3.1 + SSD RAID 0 disk array increased sequential reads by 40%, sequential writes by 30%, random reads by 11%, and random writes by 50%.
With the support of this powerful computing platform, the Rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone adapts to a variety of high frame rate games of 144 frames/120 frames/90 frames, of which 144 frame games include "Dream New World", "Dragon Fantasy", "New God Demon Continent", etc.; 120 frame games include "Glory of kings", "QQ Flying Car", "Sports Kart", etc.; 90 frame games include "League of Legends Mobile Game", "Tianya Mingyue Knife", "Naruto", etc. There will be more games in the future that will adapt to the high frame rate of the Rescuer Y90 esports phone. On the Savior Y90 esports phone, high frame rate games bring smoother visuals and give us a smoother gaming experience.
Under the actual measurement, in the 60-frame "Original God", a variety of complex environments in the game, the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone have a fine display, with the characters walking, attacking, the screen rendering is also very in place. After one round, the average frame rate is 59.8fps, which is also in the outstanding category of the current new generation of Snapdragon 8 mobile phones. It can be seen that whether it is the hardware configuration at the theoretical level, or the actual tests such as running scores and games, the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone has handed over a good answer sheet.
The world's game, only fast is not broken
You remember the previous Savior Esports Mobile Phone 2 Pro is equipped with the eight-finger control system of the mobile phone - the eight god keys. To put it simply, it turns the mobile phone into a set of handle peripherals at the system level, truly restores the key layout and control mode on the handle on the mobile phone, realizes the multi-dimensional three-dimensional control experience, and lets us abandon the so-called external "chicken eating artifact" bought on a treasure.
In terms of control, the thinking of the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone has not changed, but compared with the previous game, there are still differences. The Y90 has 2 shoulder keys on the right side and up and down, which can be set to 4 shoulder keys, with the 3-stop screen pressure on both sides of the front, a new six god keys are built, which support different operation modes such as individual click, double click and screen pressure, and comprehensively simplify the game operation. Through the setting of the six god keys, we can achieve a more efficient skill release strategy, reduce the cumbersome operation of the finger between different keys, and easily achieve "one-second trigger", which can effectively increase the upper limit of e-sports players.
In actual operation, we found that this set of "handle design integrated with the fuselage" is indeed a bit of an "open and hanging" feeling. With an adaptation period of up to 5 minutes, the average person can find a smooth game winning thrill in the Y90. Of course, several mainstream e-sports mobile phone brands have their own achievements in this regard, but Lenovo's deep skills in game notebooks can still be blessed on mobile phones.
Confident insistence on color aesthetics
Compared to the previous game Savior Esports Phone 2 Pro, the overall size of the Savior Y90 Esports phone is slightly smaller, such as width and thickness, but not obvious. Weight, although it is also a common "half-pound machine" in e-sports mobile phones, is still 10g (252g) lighter than the previous game.
However, the exterior design of the savior Y90 esports mobile phone still has a very familiar familial flavor. This is also what the official symbol of the future, technology, flight and the spirit of exploration. At the same time, the Savior Family Faith Lighting and the Savior Family Titanium Crystal Gray Color Scheme are simultaneously launched, which sets off a rich e-sports atmosphere with other product elements.
We see that the savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone adopts an eight-curved AG glass process, the side of the downward probe 3.12mm, compared with the previous generation of 13% thin; the middle convex 0.8mm, the slope is natural and smooth, the touch feel is comfortable and natural, the smooth curvature line on the back and the finger finger belly fit perfectly, so that users can get the most perfect touch when playing. The rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone adopts aluminum alloy high-strength middle frame, built-in metal middle frame reinforcement, strengthening the rigidity of the fuselage. Super run air outlet design, ultra-low wind resistance, maximum efficiency exhaust.
Therefore, our point of view is still the same, the savior has indeed achieved the perfect combination of strong inner performance and highly recognizable appearance, reshaping the "functional aesthetics", and truly realizing the internal and external repair of the product, so that function and aesthetics complement each other, and achieve the harmonious beauty between function and form. Oh, and this time it's only a color-matching version, titanium crystal gray.
Experience "good things in pairs" again
We remember that the Savior Esports 2 Pro was powered by the industry's only and strongest dual X-axis linear motor solution at the time. At the same time, the Savior Esports Mobile Phone 2 Pro also cooperated with AAC Technologies to launch the Richtap Touch Ecology in the world. Whether it is games, videos or music, it can be integrated into the Richtap touch ecology, bringing us a full range of unparalleled touch experience. In terms of audio hardware, the Savior Esports Phone 2 Pro still uses a dual positive sound design to ensure that our hands will not be obscured when playing. At the same time, the volume of the cavity has been increased by 30%, reaching a double equivalent of 1.60cc, which can bring better bass, with a positive sound structure design, and the powerful bass is coming to the face without fear of obstruction. All these "good things come in pairs" configuration, which is basically reflected in the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone.
The Savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone continues to be equipped with the industry's top dual X-axis linear motor solution, compared with ordinary single-axis linear motors, the steady-state vibration is increased by 65%, the transient vibration is increased by 120%, and the effective bandwidth is increased by 100%. On the basis of the dual X-axis linear motor, the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone further added the sense of presence vibration, in the "Glory of the King", "Peace Elite", "QQ Flying Car" and other games, we can experience a more realistic vibration feeling.
In terms of speakers, the Savior Y90 gaming phone uses a 0.8mm amplitude ultralinear dual speaker with dual positive sound, which increases the amplitude by 20% and is equivalent to a sound cavity of 1.48cc. In addition, the Savior Y90 esports phone supports DOLBY ATOMS DAX 3.7, which achieves full link optimization from content to decoding to sound effects.
Screen, standard esports style
The screen configuration of the Savior Y90 is actually similar to the Rescuer Esports Mobile Phone 2 Pro. Using Samsung's custom non-porous gaming screen (note, no cutouts, no cutouts), the 6.92-inch size uses the latest E4 material and diamond arrangement. While achieving high brushing, it also ensures excellent display quality.
The screen is screen certified for HDR10+ while supporting game display enhancements, delta E
At the same time, this top Samsung custom esports supports a 144Hz refresh rate, whether playing games or watching movies, the picture is more coherent, smooth, and the tactile feedback is faster. Support 720Hz multi-finger sampling rate (which is a very interesting indicator of the current "game console"), screen touch latency as low as 3.8ms, low latency, high smoothness, so that the operation is more follow-up.
Charging, a safe mainstream standard
Although it is a bit of a "trick", Lenovo has indeed achieved "90W fast charging" on the savior e-sports mobile phone before, and it has indeed marketized it. We say that its 90W is a bit "clever", but it is not a pejorative meaning, but quite intelligent. Either way, solving problems is a good cat. Therefore, the Savior Esports mobile phone 2 Pro also basically continues this "90W" battery solution.
However, this time the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone has chosen a relatively mainstream solution. In simple terms, the Y90 is equipped with a 5600mAh large-capacity battery, which is matched by a 68W super flash charge, and the time to fill 5600mAh is 35min, which realizes the optimal solution of fast charging and endurance.
The 68W super flash charger of the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone is compatible with mainstream public fast charging protocols, such as PD, PPS, QC, etc. The 68W Super Flash Charger can charge laptops, Switches and other devices. Travel, business trip, one charger is all done.
For the scene of charging while playing, the rescuer Y90 e-sports mobile phone continues the bypass charging function: after plugging in the charger, bypassing the battery to directly power other components, avoiding the heating that may be brought about by charging from the source, and users no longer have to worry about the game frequency reduction due to the high temperature of the mobile phone.
New ZUI operating system
The savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone adopts the latest ZUI 13 system, adheres to the concept of "stability, speed and intelligence", and is more youthful and fashionable in UI design. In terms of system experience optimization, ZUI 13 supports the "one horizon" function, which can comprehensively and effectively improve the efficiency of daily use.
ZUI 13 also supports the application of the floating window function, which can make the game hang in the form of a floating window in the screen, and can also reply to the information when playing the game; ZUI 13 supports the free split screen function, which can open an application on both sides of the screen, run two applications at the same time, improve efficiency, and make the screen more fully and efficiently used; ZUI 13's super interconnection function is more practical, through the Lenovo One savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone can be real-time projection to lenovo computer, To achieve real-time operation of the computer to the mobile terminal; ZUI 13 also supports cross-end dragging and mutual transfer of files, sharing the clipboard function, etc., and the overall system operation experience is very good.
Image characteristics, practical mainly
Compared to the Savior Esports mobile phone 2 Pro equipped with a 44-megapixel front-facing lens gimmick, this time the Savior Y90 esports mobile phone is still much more routine. Objectively speaking, the regularization of these details also contributes to the rationalization of the overall price definition.
Rescuer Y90 esports phone rear 64MP main camera + 13MP 120° ultra-wide angle lens. The Savior Y90 esports phone is equipped with a 16-megapixel front-facing lens. This imaging system supports one-click start broadcast, global video call enhancement, dual-camera video chat and other functions.
EF reviews
In fact, the Y90 esports phone has been released before, but the rescuers are relatively low-key and have not been very obviously marketed. In March, when the fierce battle between the houses was in full swing, it was officially launched, which was very flavorful of "Surprise Soldier Highlight", which was also a market skill in itself. I have to say that Lenovo is still very accomplished in this regard.
From the starting price, 4999 yuan can buy 18GB + "640GB" top-of-the-top model, the new Snapdragon 8 platform and almost no short board of the comprehensive configuration, indeed has the temperament of "true incense machine". The 3999 yuan 12GB + 256GB version, in addition to the game experience, can also fully take into account the commuting use scenarios, and the attractiveness of all aspects is even greater. The pricing of the previous Rescuer Esports Mobile Phone 2 Pro, although the starting price is lower, the storage configuration is also lower, and the top price is higher than that of the Y90, so it can be concluded that the price strategy of the Rescuer Y90 is more mature and clever.
In short, as a relatively young brand in the field of e-sports mobile phones, the pioneering spirit of the rescuer and the sense of mission of "daring to challenge" are commendable, and it is also very obvious in the sincerity of pricing. For the savior Y90 e-sports mobile phone, by the standard of the hardware side, it does have more and more perfect and exquisite e-sports experience, and the details and highlights are also different from the competitors, and there is enough ability to complete the mission of "saving everyone's unhappiness". This year, I will not do the "finale", there is still a great attraction. Again, it is facing the Red Devil, the Black Shark, the "Eye of the Loser" ROG, without a single good stubble. The best way to look at a person's pattern and ability is to see who his opponent is, and this sentence is also true for commodities.
