Huawei Mate 60 hands-on experience: even the flagship standard version is also "far ahead"!

In the field of domestic mobile phone brands, if you want to ask what is the hottest product in recent times, it is the Huawei Mate 60 series, even if it is suddenly listed, it will be sold out in less than 1 minute, and offline stores are also in the market. Most people may still pay more attention to the Huawei Mate 60 Pro version, but after experiencing the Huawei Mate 60, I think it is also a big surprise as the flagship standard version. Without further ado, let's explain my experience in detail.

Lighter, thinner and more comfortable to hold

In terms of color matching, Huawei Mate 60 also provides four texture colors of Yachuan blue, white sand silver, southern glutinous purple, and Yadan black, and I got the Yadan black color matching. The whole body is low-key and restrained black, the upper part is a large area of plain leather material, naturally connected to the metal area of the lower part, tightly seamed, without the slightest sense of cutting, warm touch and texture texture.

We then focus on the lens module area, this time Mate 60 inherits the design concept of axis symmetry in the series, not only has the classic star ring, but also adopts a breakthrough "concentric" design, three lenses and flash evenly distributed, extending from the inside out, with a layered visual sense, the recognition is full again.

The front is a 6.7-inch OLED straight screen, centered with a single hole design, supporting 2688×1216 resolution, 1.07 billion color display, 120Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rate, 1440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, 300Hz touch sampling rate and other high-quality features, and the screen quality is also flagship level.

In fact, for me personally, I prefer a straight screen design to a curved screen. The look and feel of the straight screen is more intuitive, and the composition of the photo is not affected by the visual impact of the side; When playing with a straight screen, the touch is more convenient and sensitive, and it is not easy to touch or affect the operation by mistake; More importantly, the price of a straight screen replacement screen will be much cheaper than a curved screen. Of course, the screens of the Mate 60 series are all second-generation Kunlun glass, with the ultra-tough basalt body and ultra-durable brocade material, the drop resistance, extrusion resistance, and impact resistance of the whole machine have been greatly improved, but there is no need to worry about daily slight bumps.

The last thing I care about is the feel, the Mate 60 body size is 161.4mm (length) x 76mm (width) x 7.95mm (thickness), and the body weight is 209g. Compared to the Pro version, although the screen is smaller, the width is 3mm narrower and 16g lighter, I think it will be more comfortable to hold, which is an important factor affecting the choice of products for weight-sensitive users.

5x optics More than a long view

Huawei Mate 60 adopts "50 million pixel ultra-optical variable lens + 12 million pixel ultra-wide angle lens + 12 million pixel periscope telephoto lens" rear triple camera module, supporting 5x optical zoom. This configuration is a proper flagship standard, and it is also a very suitable imaging flagship for "looking far".

In the shooting interface, Huawei Mate 60 provides four focal lengths of 13mm, 27mm, 135mm and 270mm for users to choose, and we mainly focus on the more commonly used focal lengths of 27mm and 135mm in daily life.

In 27mm focal length shots, the sample is more restrained in color, and the blue saturation of the sky is moderate, without over-rendering. In the shooting of close-up still life, the overall bokeh effect is also very good, and the edge transition is relatively natural, which weakens the traces of the algorithm well.

At the 135mm focal length, the Huawei Mate 60's exclusive 5x optical zoom allows the phone to capture scenes at a longer distance. On the one hand, it is very suitable for shooting a corner of a building, and a simple composition of a part of a high-rise building with the sky can easily produce a film. On the other hand, when shooting green plants or food, you can easily freeze a clear picture without deliberately getting close.

At the 13mm focal length, the wide-angle shooting does not have too much distortion, but the shooting of this focal length has relatively high requirements for the angle of the scene, and daily shooting may not be quickly started. As for the 270mm focal length, the sharpness of the digital cropping effect is still relatively good, even if it is a long distance signboard, most of the text can be clearly presented, and the effect is ideal for looking far away.

Finally, in night scene shooting, the color output of the picture is stable, the algorithm basically restores the color level in the low-light environment, and the suppression of the highlights is also handled properly, and the glare is basically invisible. In the lighting sample shot at 135mm, we can also clearly see the layered light ratio effect, and the surrounding walls are not overly brightened, and the atmosphere is full.

Flagship Configuration Enjoy the experience

Huawei Mate 60 and Huawei Mate 60 Pro are equipped with the same processor, there is almost no big difference in performance level, we directly carry out the game test experience. The test environment is as follows: room temperature is about 26 °C, connect to WiFi, turn off Bluetooth and positioning, turn on adaptive refresh rate and performance mode, sound and brightness are 50%, conduct "Honor of Kings" game game test, the internal setting of the game is "extremely high frame rate + ultra-high resolution + HD picture", and turn off the anti-aliasing and dynamic resolution functions.

Through testing, it can be seen that the frame rate of Huawei Mate 60 during the game is still relatively stable, except for the normal fluctuation of the game loading page, the frame rate is basically maintained at about 120 FPS, with almost no fluctuations. During the game, there was no discomfort such as stuttering and lag, and the overall performance experience was quite good.

In terms of charging and battery life, the 4750mAh + 66W fast charging combination is paired with 50W wireless super fast charging. I refer to the above game test environment to conduct a regular battery life test of 1 hour of gameplay, 1 hour of music playback, 1 hour of video playback and 8 hours of standby time, and then charge from 1% to 100%.

According to the test results, the Mate 60 consumes a total of 34% of power in four conventional endurance tests, and it takes about 36 minutes to charge to a full charge. It can be seen that the battery life of the Mate 60 is comparable to that of high-end flagships, and the charging rate can also meet daily use, and there will not be much difference in perception after daily use.

In addition, Mate 60 also has the latest built-in HarmonyOS 4, with intelligent functions such as air control, smart sense payment, gaze continuous screen, and AI information protection, which can not only ensure the smoothness of long-term use by users, but also protect the privacy of users' personal information.

Therefore, I think that in terms of performance configuration, in fact, Huawei Mate 60 and Huawei Mate 60 Pro can basically be equated, that is, if it is not in the extreme environment, there will be basically no obvious difference in performance experience.

summary

Huawei Mate 60 is based on "concentric" design, incorporating natural aesthetic colors and classic star rings, which itself has elegant and exquisite attributes. At the same time, the basic configuration is also the flagship standard, performance, image, battery life, etc. can meet the daily needs of most users, can be said to be a relatively comprehensive flagship mobile phone.

With the maturity of supply chain technology, the decentralization of configuration is inevitable, so the gap between the flagship standard version and the Pro version is not as obvious as before, basically in addition to the image, there will not be much difference in perception in the experience, and the user's choice will be tilted.

In summary, Huawei Mate 60 has a lighter and thinner straight screen, and the light and comfortable feel is definitely the best choice for weight-sensitive users. The starting price of 5499 yuan also makes it have a high cost performance that other products of the same price do not have. If you're considering buying the Huawei Mate 60 series, or want to buy a flagship standard version, the Huawei Mate 60 may be a good choice. Of course, I still recommend going to offline stores to experience it, so that you will have a more intuitive feeling, I hope you can choose the mobile phone that suits you.
