At many of the media events I attended last year, I could see many of my media peers holding a vivo X70 Pro+. In the exchange, it can also be found that X70 Pro+ has basically been unanimously recognized by everyone, and many times even use X70 Pro+ instead of professional SLR equipment. The X70 Pro+, which can enter the "old fritter" law eye in these circles, undoubtedly has excellent product power.
It has been more than half a year since the release of the vivo X70 series, and finally tonight, vivo brings a new product of the X series - the vivo X80 series. So this time, can the vivo X80 Pro catch the flag of the X70 Pro+ image flagship? Let's take a look.
01 The Realm of All Directions - Not only there is inheritance, but also transcendence
First of all, let's take a look at the appearance of the vivo X80 Pro. Taking the "journey" color matching we got in our hands as an example, when we first started with the X80 Pro, there was still a strong sense of design in the X series. The two materials of plain leather and ceramic jump on the vibrant orange color, and there is a sense of collision between modern and traditional. Speaking of vivo's recent products, they all use plain leather as a fuselage material, although the durability is not as good as ceramics, glass and other materials, but the feel of plain leather and the characteristics of anti-fingerprint are still very pleasing.
Looking at the most eye-catching lens module part of the whole machine, the lens module of the vivo X80 Pro continues the vivo X70 Pro+ "cloud window" (this time upgraded to "cloud level"), which enlarges the circular lens module and forms a sense of contrast between the square circles with the "cloud level". According to the official description of vivo: look at the heavens and the earth with the "realm of square circles" and see the beauty of the heavens and the earth. On top of the cloud level, there is also a vivo | printed Zeiss' silk screen printing information not only experiences the friendly and in-depth cooperation between vivo and ZEISS in the field of imaging, but also brings high recognition to vivo X80 Pro.
Coming to the front screen of the fuselage, the vivo X80 Pro adopts a customized 6.78-inch 2K E5 super sense free screen from Samsung. The diamond arrangement scheme is chosen for the pixel arrangement, which not only brings corrected colors and a clearer look and feel experience, but also extends the life of the screen. And this screen is also equipped with a new LTPO free frame rate intelligent frequency conversion technology, compared to the LTPO technology on the vivo X70 Pro+, the power consumption is reduced by about 13%, and the click delay and sliding delay are reduced by about 15% to 30%. In addition, the DivalyMate 15 record certification also confirms the comprehensive quality of this screen.
In addition to the "Journey" color scheme in our hands, vivo X80 Pro also has two colors of "To Black" and "Holiday". "Holiday" color vivo X80 Pro is also made of leather and ceramic materials, plain leather material supplemented by blue-blue green, to vivo X80 Pro to add a little "small fresh" taste, "clear sky and sea breeze" holiday is also very suitable for the upcoming summer. The "to black" color scheme adopts glowstone AG glass, and the ceramic material of the "cloud level" part makes the "to black" appear more stable. It also gives users who are not cold about the material of plain leather more choice.
As a device that users need to "hold" every day, good design can bring positive guidance to users' emotions to a large extent. In general, the design of vivo X80 Pro is a good inheritance of the X series, and the "realm of square circles" also metaphorically reflects vivo's determination on the image track this time, so let's talk about the image performance of vivo X80 Pro in detail.
02 Self-developed chip V1+ - the image flagship full of "blue blood"
Last year, with the joint blessing of ZEISS and self-developed core V1, vivo X70 Pro+ sat firmly on the throne of the image flagship in the field of mobile imaging. In addition to continuing to carry out in-depth cooperation with ZEISS for research and development, the vivo X80 Pro has also been fully upgraded on hardware.
First of all, let's look at the specific hardware, the main camera part uses a 5000W pixel custom GNV ultra-large bottom main camera, 1/1.3 inch of light sensitivity area, support OIS optical image stabilization; the ultra-wide angle part uses a 4800W pixel ultra-wide angle lens, IMX598 sensor; the portrait part uses an IMX663 sensor 1200W pixel ZEISS portrait micro-gimbal lens; and finally there is an 800W pixel periscope ultra-telephoto that supports 5x optical zoom and up to 60x digital zoom. In terms of paper strength, vivo X80 Pro is definitely the level of the first echelon in the current mobile terminal market.
In addition, vivo's self-developed chip has also ushered in a new upgrade on the X80 series. Compared with the previous generation of V1 chips, the self-developed chip V1+ realizes the effect of "night vision" in the brightness environment below 3lux with the improvement of computing power. What is even more valuable is that the self-developed chip V1+ is compatible with the whole series and multiple platforms, no matter which version of vivo X80 Pro is equipped with the self-developed chip V1+. In addition, the X80 series is equipped with an optical lens with ZEISS T* coating jointly developed by vivo and ZEISS, and a micro-gimbal stabilization is equipped with portrait lenses. So how does the vivo X80 Pro with so much high-level hardware actually perform in terms of image performance? Let's use multiple sets of samples to analyze them one by one.
The first is a sample of a backlit scene in an outdoor environment, which can be clearly seen in the face of a large backlit environment, and the overall sample has not been too dark or lost in detail, and the colors in the environment have been well preserved. This should be thanks to the ZEISS T* optical lens equipped with the whole series, vivo X80 Pro can obtain a purer picture effect in the face of backlight or complex light scenes.
Below is a set of samples of the 5X telephoto, the overall detail performance is very good, and the picture is very clear with a certain sense of depth. Especially the last one, with the help of the direct shooting of the sunset, has a good restoration of the overall color of the building, and the color is also very pleasing. This should be thanks to the blessing of ZEISS Natural Color 2.0, the hue offset ΔE is industry-leading, and the color accuracy is more accurate.
Telephoto lenses are still commonly used in our daily life shooting, and the telephoto performance of vivo X80 Pro is still worth affirming.
Below is a set of night snapshots of cityscapes. In this complex lighting environment, the test of image performance is still relatively harsh. In the sample, it can be intuitively seen that vivo X80 Pro is still in place for complex highlight suppression, and the restoration of light and shadow levels between buildings and the identification of colors are also very good. Based on vivo's self-developed algorithm RAWHDR3.0 and ALD coating technology, the primary color ultra-pure night scene makes the vivo X80 Pro's performance in night images seem to be better than that of daytime.
The following set is a sample in the indoor low light environment, based on the AI perception engine, which has a good improvement in brightness accuracy and white balance accuracy. For light and dark have a better grasp, more can restore the imaging effect of the human eye.
Vivo X80 Pro still has a variety of creative filters built in this time. Take the silver orange filter as an example, which can be used to take quite a scientific photo. For example, the Location of Soho that we shot had the feel of a futuristic tech blockbuster after using a silver orange filter.
In the night mode, vivo X80 Pro also supports four kinds of "slow door of time" gameplay, including traffic, night graffiti, brilliant fireworks, and brilliant star tracks. Take the actual traffic as an example, in fact, it is a long exposure in the photography game, which brings a photo of the light rail by increasing the exposure time. Although the traffic of the "time slow door" can be handheld shooting, it is best to use a tripod to ensure the stability of mobile phone shooting and avoid pasting.
It is worth mentioning that thanks to Vivo's new self-developed chip V1+, the X80 Pro rear main camera can achieve the effect of "low-light mobile phone 'night vision'" in a brightness environment below 3lux. In order to verify the X80 Pro's "night vision" performance, let's make a simple comparison, shoot the same hand in the indoor scene without turning on the lights, and use a mobile phone without "night mode" to simulate the real scene seen by the human eye, the results are as follows:
The sample on the right side can still faintly see some of the outlines of the handmade, while the vivo X80 Pro on the left completely recorded the full picture of the handmade, although the tone is relatively dim, but the picture does not appear noise, smearing and other issues, the overall look is still relatively pure.
After talking about the main camera, telephoto, and ultra-wide angle, let's take a look at the performance of this 50mm focal length portrait lens.
It can be seen that the portrait bokeh effect of vivo X80 Pro is still relatively colorful, the main body of the character is more prominent than the background, and the state of the character itself will also play some beautification.
It is worth noting that the vivo X80 Pro has a new generation of ZEISS lens package built-in:
ZEISS Cinematic style bokeh - 2.39:1 film format ratio, the light spot is an artistic strip of long oval light spot, simulating the blue glare effect of the movie lens (photo scene), bringing the texture of classic Hollywood movies, while supporting video recording and portrait photography;
Zeiss Cinematic style bokeh
Zeiss Cinematic style bokeh
ZEISS Biotar style bokeh - ZEISS legendary lens, with a rotating out-of-focus effect, there will be beautiful light spots in the night scene;
Zeiss Biotar style bokeh
Zeiss Biotar style bokeh
ZEISS Distagon style bokeh - focusing on the expression of the relationship between the character and the background, using shallow depth of field processing, in the punch card Net red landmarks and other scenes have an excellent sense of play;
Zeiss Disagon style bokeh
ZEISS Sonnar style bokeh - the use of cream-like bokeh effect, so that the main body of the character is further highlighted;
Zeiss Sonnar style bokeh
ZEISS Planar style bokeh – the bokeh effect is more universal and applies to any scene.
ZEISS Planar style bokeh
It can be seen that after using the ZEISS style bokeh effect, the portrait zhang can have a good background bokeh ability, and it does not lose some professional SLR equipment at all. And thanks to the adjustment of the sample style of the ZEISS lens bag, we can see that the facial features of the characters are more three-dimensional and the skin texture is more delicate.
It is worth mentioning that the vivo X80 series also reproduced the ZEISS film-style shooting effect on the mobile phone, and the unique oval spot and 2.39:1 ratio picture style have a more cinematic flavor.
Zeiss Cinematic film bokeh
As a sequel after the vivo X70 series, everyone is still looking forward to the image performance of the vivo X80 Pro. From my point of view as a user, vivo X80 Pro is one of the best image flagships I can buy at present; and as a technology practitioner, vivo X80 Pro is completely capable of replacing SLR devices in some occasions.
03 Dual platform flagship core - the game experience is very stable
As the latest flagship of the vivo X series, the performance configuration of the vivo X80 Pro will naturally not lag behind, and there are two versions of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 and MediaTek Tianji 9000 to choose from this time. As the top processor in the current Android camp, I believe that everyone is no stranger to these two flagship cores. But according to the convention, we still use Antutu and 3D Mark to test the performance of the Vivo X80 Pro of the Snapdragon 8 version in our hands, and the results are as follows:
In the Antutu test, vivo X80 Pro obtained a score of 1006008 points, which belongs to the standard level of Snapdragon 8; and in the 3DMark Wild Life test, vivo X80 Pro obtained a score of 9683 points, which also belongs to the standard level of Snapdragon 8, with such results, vivo X80 Pro Although it is not as good as some of the main game performance products on the market, it is enough to break the wrist with some all-round flagships on the market.
After running the score, it is natural to see the actual performance of vivo X80 Pro in the game, although it is a product that focuses on images, but the game experience is still a more important purchase factor for users. We still choose the three mainstream games currently on the market: King, Eat Chicken and Original God for testing, and the test results are as follows:
The first is "Glory of Kings", as an old game, it is actually not very difficult to eat configuration. It can be seen that vivo X80 Pro in a whole game of game, whether it is the early development of the line or the large-scale team battle in the later stage, the overall operation is still relatively stable, with an average frame rate of 116 frames.
Compared to Glory of Kings, Elite of Peace is much more complex in terms of map size and model. It can be seen that in the test of "Peace Elite", the vivo X80 Pro has a frame rate fluctuation, but the frame rate is always stable between 90 frames and 80 frames, which does not affect the fluency of the overall game.
Finally, the test of "Original God", the overall frame rate curve of vivo X80 Pro is relatively flat, with an average frame rate of 56.4 frames, and it does not feel stuttered in the overall process of the game.
After testing three games, we also tested the body temperature, and the results were as follows:
It can be seen that the maximum temperature of the fuselage of "Glory of kings" that has not been downgraded at all reached 42.7 ° C during the testing process, while after the test of "Peace Elite" and "Original God", the maximum temperature of the fuselage is 43.7 ° C and 41.5 ° C, respectively, and the vivo X80 Pro controls the temperature well without losing the game experience, and does not lose the so-called "very calm" performance flagship at all.
It can be seen that in addition to the top image configuration, vivo X80 Pro does not pull the crotch in the game experience, although the game frame rate curve is not as good as some mobile phones, but the overall experience is very good. Especially in terms of temperature control, thanks to vivo's performance scheduling strategy and the configuration of 27 layers of VC liquid cooling and heat dissipation, the game experience is very stable!
04 Dual battery 80W - not only fast but also stable
The comprehensive experience of mobile phones is directly proportional to its own fast charging and battery life performance. Charging quickly and consuming slowly is a great way to enhance the happiness of using mobile phones. So, how does the vivo X80 Pro with a 4700mAh battery perform? We conducted a 5-hour heavy battery life test designed to simulate the user's battery life performance under heavy use.
We selected 7 of the most common scenarios:
Watch iQIYI video: play 45 minutes of 1080P resolution video in full screen;
Brush TikTok short video: Swipe the video browsing on the video interface, a total of 50 minutes.
QQ chat: 20 minutes of text chat, 15 minutes of voice chat and 15 minutes of video chat, a total of 50 minutes.
Swipe Weibo: Enter the list page and swipe for 45 minutes.
Camera recording: Record 1080P 30 frames of video for 15 minutes; default main camera takes 15 minutes, for a total of 30 minutes.
Play Glory of Kings: Battle Mode "Combat Confrontation", Map King's Canyon 5V5, test for 60 minutes.
Swipe mobile phone Taobao: Enter the Taobao home page and swipe, a total of 20 minutes.
The results are as follows:
Although the 4700mAh battery is not large, it is still very brilliant in terms of the endurance performance of the vivo X80 Pro, which may also be related to the relatively conservative performance scheduling of vivo. In short, in terms of battery life, after 5 hours of heavy endurance testing, the remaining power is 45%, which is basically free of the problem of battery life anxiety for ordinary users.
After talking about battery life, it is natural to look at charging, and the vivo X80 Pro still uses a dual-cell design, which will get a faster and more durable fast charging experience in the case of ensuring safety. We also tested the vivo X80 Pro's 80W wired fast charger, and the results are as follows:
From 0-100% a total of 32 minutes, 6 minutes faster than the official claim of 38 minutes; and in terms of wireless charging, we also conducted tests, half an hour to charge 50%, and the official claim is 50 minutes to fill, it seems to be different from our conclusions, but for the use of fragmentation time for charging this way, half an hour can be charged half of the power is also very good.
Overall, in terms of endurance, vivo X80 Pro is definitely the level of the first echelon in the ranks of flagship aircraft; at the same time, in terms of fast charging, it is regrettable that it does not use a higher power 120W fast charging, but 80W fast charging is also able to meet the needs of users "fast return".
05 Summary
After a week of experience, the vivo X80 Pro left me with the impression that the image strength is outstanding, but it will not lose the experience in other aspects. It is no exaggeration to say that this should be one of the best in the first half of this year's flagship products, the image experience. Not only did it successfully take over the baton of the top flagship of vivo X70 Pro+, but also led the vivo X series to the battlefield of the image flagship.
More than 5 months have passed since the release of the first Snapdragon 8 product, perhaps because of the relationship between winning the championship in the domestic mobile phone market last year, vivo seems to be more "calm" for the polishing of the flagship this year, and it is not hurried or slow to issue three flagships in a row in April that should be calm. In terms of users' enthusiasm for vivo X Note and vivo X Fold and the comprehensive experience of vivo X80 Pro, vivo does have the capital of "daring to be the queen of the world".
