Some time ago, when Brother Meow test-drove BYD, many friends commented below, saying that the electronic LCD meter made everyone very entangled, and the traditional mechanical instrument was better, so Brother Meow would talk to you about this problem today.
Now we have more and more cars, taking the full LCD meter, but we still have a lot of friends, still miss the previous mechanical instrument.
Just like many of our friends now, we have used smartphones, but there are still a very small number of them that stick to the original feature phone. So in the end is the LCD instrument good? Or is the mechanical instrument good?
In fact, Brother Meow also has a process of changing views, at the beginning of the lcd instrument, at that time, in fact, Brother Meow is standing on a mechanical instrument, but also related to his own personality.
Because the personality of Brother Meow is a relatively cautious person, after all, the car's instrument is a very important thing for the car, in addition to displaying the commonly used speed, temperature, but also shows some fault codes.
Early concerns about LCD instruments
If the LIQUID crystal meter is broken, then this time may lead to a series of subsequent problems.
For example, if you can't see the speedometer of the car, then even the car does not dare to open, so the stability of the dashboard greatly affects our car experience and the safety of the car.
Especially in the past few years, when the LCD instrument was first popularized, the LCD instrument was used as a tall thing at that time.
First, its entire design brightness control is not so good; second, the cost is high.
So once it is broken, it not only affects the use of the car, but the most important thing is that it is repaired, which makes your flesh hurt.
Changes in liquid crystal meters
1. Increased stability
With the gradual popularization of liquid crystal meters in recent years, the stability of liquid crystal meters is better than the original.
Second, the replacement cost is reduced
Even if it is broken, basically many of them are broken within the warranty period, and after the break, the cost of the entire replacement is much cheaper than before.
Before an LCD instrument, a slightly better car, replaced by tens of thousands, now basically a few thousand dollars, some domestic 3000 can be replaced, the entire cost is greatly reduced, so in this piece, its pressure will be smaller.
Third, the user experience has improved greatly
In fact, the early LCD instruments, the contrast is too strong, debugging is not so comfortable, especially those low-end car LCD instruments.
If it is open for a long time, especially at night, its light is not particularly well adjusted, in fact, it is particularly dazzling and uncomfortable.
However, in recent years, the general progress of liquid crystal meters has been relatively large. The current liquid crystal instrument, especially after the night, it suppresses the light relatively darkly, and the mechanical instrument we see, in fact, the difference is not too big.
But there are some of the mechanical instruments of the car, especially some slightly cheaper cars, if the lights are not turned on, its instruments are not lit, so when the outside light suddenly turns on and on, there are sharp changes, sometimes even the instruments can not be seen clearly.
summary
From the experience of meow brother test drive, the availability of liquid crystal instruments has been greatly enhanced. At present, domestic cars take more and more LIQUID meters, some of the joint venture cars take LCD instruments, and some are in the middle, a small piece of LCD instruments, next to or mechanical instruments, pure mechanical instruments are basically less and less.
From the perspective of use experience, if the car itself, its car machine information is relatively rich, can be projected onto the LCD instrument, then the use of the full LCD instrument experience, in fact, is now quite good, especially our current domestic car, in the application level to do very rich.
It can project a lot of different information, as well as a lot of cool effects, and even some of the real scenes we want to navigate, navigation it is projected for you, including night vision, all projected throughout the dashboard, its usability is greatly enhanced.
Therefore, with the increasing degree of automotive electronics, it is actually an inevitable trend for LCD instruments to replace traditional mechanical instruments in the future.
But at this stage, some car companies are relatively conservative, a little more stable, worried that if the car crashes, the LCD instrument does not show anything, the big screen does not show, and the car still cannot be driven.
Therefore, next to the LCD instrument, it will increase the speed and speed, and there are two simple mechanical instruments to assist, making a foolproof strategy.
