Preface

To say that the biggest change in the domestic mobile phone market in recent years is not the upgrade of flagship models, but the configuration and cost performance of mid-range models. In the past, as long as it was said that the brand with high cost performance in the mid-range machine was only Redmi, but since the beginning of the past two years, other friends have also begun to make efforts to cost performance, in the 2000-3000 price market, Redmi is no longer the only choice for users, especially OnePlus, has become the strongest opponent of Redmi's "competition on the same stage". In addition to the digital version of the main flagship, OnePlus also has the Ace series, which focuses on mid-range performance, and the Ace series is aimed at Redmi's K series.

This year's mid-range cost-effective mobile phone market can be said to be particularly lively, and the release of OnePlus Ace 3 has had a great impact on the sales of Redmi K70. Among the many choices, the same 16+512GB version, the Redmi K70 and OnePlus Ace 3 priced at 2999 seem to be a pair of choices that cannot be avoided, so the question is, how should these two machines be chosen?

Let's take a look at the parameters between them:

Redmi K70 was launched a lot earlier than OnePlus Ace 3, and before OnePlus Ace 3 came out, Redmi K70 can be said to be firmly occupying the throne of the mid-range god machine in 2023, after all, its configuration, capabilities and price are indeed quite attractive. After the launch of the OnePlus Ace 3, it had a big impact on the sales of the Redmi K70. Although they all use the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen2 processor, the overall capabilities are very similar, but the LTPO screen, heat dissipation, and battery life are different, which makes OnePlus Ace 3 and Redmi K70 form some differences, especially OnePlus Ace 3 After several rounds of firmware upgrades in the later stage, the use becomes more and more fragrant!

Who is better in design aesthetics?

The design of a mobile phone is becoming more and more important, and good recognition can make a mobile phone stand out. If you don't have an in-depth understanding of mobile phones, the first thing that attracts consumers' attention is its appearance. Many people may ask: is the most important configuration of the mobile phone that should not be used? How did it become an appearance? Of course, configuration is important, but configuration is not the only reference factor for consumers to choose mobile phones, especially in today's increasingly homogenization of smart phones, the appearance of mobile phones is becoming more and more important, and appearance has become one of the main factors for different products to open up the gap.

Especially with the development of technology, mid-range mobile phones can basically meet the needs of daily communication, entertainment, games, etc., and the gap between flagship machines is more concentrated in cameras, workmanship and other aspects of perception is not obvious, so if a mobile phone has outstanding appearance and good recognition, then it is very powerful in the competition of similar products.

Since OnePlus canceled the plastic bracket,Redmi has finally followed up the pace,RedmiK70Upgraded the texture of the mobile phone,The whole system has canceled the plastic bracket and is equipped with a metal right-angle middle frame design,But the metal right-angle middle frame design is really similar to the stainless steel middle frame of the iPhone 14 Pro。 Redmi K70The light and elegant small fresh color scheme is really eye-catching, and there are bamboo moon blue, light eggplant purple, clear snow, and ink feather A variety of fuselage colors are introduced, and the back cover is made of silk glass, which improves the feel.

Redmi K70 adopts a new design, the lens module adopts a design similar to that of Xiaomi 14, the three lenses are designed independently, and are decorated with a large area of glass. In terms of appearance, it is difficult to draw a conclusion, and I personally think that the right area of the glass decoration is very empty, and it may be that this design is adopted in order to satisfy "obsessive-compulsive" users and make the back of the phone look more harmonious.

OnePlus Ace 3 has reached an unprecedented height in its class in terms of texture with its metal middle frame and flagship-level glass technology, with a total of three colors: Star Black, Moon Sea Blue, and Mingsha Gold, all of which use flagship-level glass technology, using top-notch production equipment and more complex diaphragm processes, so that each color has a unique texture and different light and shadow levels.

Star black, this color scheme uses silk glass technology, which looks all black, but in fact, it will refract starlight spots under the light and shadow, and the brushed texture is smooth and smooth in touch, and it is not easy to be stained with fingerprints.

Moon sea blue, using a unique quenched blue glass process, makes the back of the mobile phone show a transparent light and shadow texture, in different light, the mobile phone will show different color changes.

Mingsha Gold, using the industry's first molten gold glass process, when the light sweeps, it shows a clear glass texture and metal color, and under the refraction of light at different angles, it will show different metal colors.

Although the Redmi K70 and OnePlus Ace 3 both have glass backs, and the OnePlus color scheme is not as much as the Redmi, the color of the glass is changeable, which will be more unique than the traditional single color. In addition, the three colors of OnePlus Ace 3 have different feels, so it can be said that OnePlus is really careful in the small details of design aesthetics!

The OnePlus Ace 3 also features a metal middle frame design, which is rare for a model in its price segment. When everyone is still blowing plastic and lightweight, in fact, after you get your hands on it, you will find that the texture still depends on the metal with sandblasting process. Thanks to the slightly curved screen design, the connection lines between the screen + middle frame + back shell are very smooth, and the edges on the left and right sides of the middle frame are rounded and not awkward, and they are very comfortable to hold.

OnePlus Ace 3's lens module continues the family-style design, using the same glass color process as the flagship, so that the color of the Deco area and the color of the back cover of the whole device are highly unified, and the sense of unity is stronger. The details are embellished with star sand, and the outer ring is decorated with sun-patterned scale rings, which will show a time scale pattern under different angles of light and shadow, which is quite recognizable. Similarly, it can also be seen that OnePlus will indeed pay more attention to the design aesthetics than Redmi.

It is worth mentioning that the OnePlus Ace 3 retains the family's classic "three-stage switch design", which can quickly switch between three modes: ring, vibration, and silent with a simple toggle. This three-stage button is not available in many Android phones, and in real life, this button is very practical in meetings and sleep scenes, which can avoid the embarrassment caused by sudden ringing and reduce disturbance to yourself and others. Redmi K70 does not have such a convenient physical key, but a very traditional series of steps: unlock the phone - enter the desktop - pull down the menu bar - to switch between different states.

Performance beast, who competes?

▲红米K70跑分1549564分、一加Ace 3跑分1666773分

In terms of performance, some people will definitely ask, both mobile phones are equipped with the same Snapdragon 8 Gen2 processor, and they also cooperate with the combination of LPDDR5X memory chip + UFS4.0 flash charging chip, is there a difference?

And that is! The same chip, put in different mobile phone manufacturers, with different tuning, has different squeezing of performance. OnePlus's performance tuning is very aggressive, although it is all Snapdragon 8 Gen2, but OnePlus Ace 3 also uses three self-developed black technologies: microarchitecture supercomputing engine, memory genetic recombination 2.0 and new storage technology. For these three technologies, those who have known about OnePlus before will definitely be familiar with them. Aside from those professional technical explanations, their main blessing effect on mobile phones is one word: fast! Smooth and fast for longer periods of use – TÜV SÜD has been certified for 48 months with Class A Smoothness, which means that for at least 4 years, it will remain as smooth as if it were a new machine.

On top of this, OnePlus Ace3 is also equipped with an industry-first independent display chip with AI rendering technology. This chip can be said to be specially designed to improve the image quality and display quality,OnePlusAce 3Equipped with a new generation of super frame super picture engine,Bring users comprehensive1.5K、Comprehensive 120 frames and a new generation of self-developed super HDR image quality,Combined with super-resolution and frame insertion algorithm,It can be used for all games1.5K super resolution and comparable to the original120Frame smooth picture,And support all games1.5K+120Frame double opening。

So is it cool to play games with the OnePlus Ace3? Brain supplement to turn on the three options of adaptive super frame, super resolution, and super HDR image quality, 1.5K+120 frames of "Genshin Impact", Teyvat Continent under the ultimate image quality, can you get it?

Of course,It's not that RedmiK70It's not strong,It also has an improvement in image quality——Furious engine3.0,It is also a chip that can realize AI performance scheduling、AI manipulation and AI rendering,But it focuses more on performance,That is, the squeeze of Snapdragon 8 Gen2,It is still not too obvious in terms of image quality rendering。

In terms of heat dissipation, OnePlus Ace 3 uses a VC heat dissipation area of 9140mm², while Redmi K70 uses a VC heat dissipation area of 5000mm². The advanced superconducting thermal material, coupled with a reasonable space heat dissipation structure, can effectively cover more heat sources inside the whole device, which is enough to ensure that the performance of the Snapdragon 8 Gen2 can be fully unleashed, and it is no wonder that the performance of the OnePlus Ace 3 can be so good.

Screen wars, who dominates the ups and downs?

Redmi K70: 6.67-inch OLED straight screen, using LTPS technology, leaving narrow bezels around, with 2K resolution, 120Hz screen refresh rate, 4000 nits peak brightness, and also supports 3840Hz high-frequency PWM dimming.

OnePlus Ace 3: 6.78-inch 1.5K oriental screen, using 8T LTPO screen technology, achieving the industry's first peak brightness of 4500 nits, 1.07 billion color display, 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut, and also supports 1-120hzLTPO adaptive refresh rate, reducing the actual energy consumption of mobile phones. It supports "3 EM Pulse+1 EM Pulse DC-like dimming" and "2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming", and has obtained DisplayMate A+ certification.

In terms of parameters, the Redmi K70 has a 2K resolution, while the OnePlus Ace 3 has a 1.5K resolution. So at a glance, it feels like the screen of the Redmi K70 is crushing the OnePlus Ace 3? However, the mobile phone screen really can't just look at the resolution, brightness, color accuracy, and refresh rate must be taken into account, especially the manufacturer's adjustment of the screen, which is actually quite important. So just to sum up these points, I really think that the OnePlus Ace 3 has a higher overall quality. Its practical Lei Jun generally knows whose screen is better, that is, the LTPO screen is used in flagship mobile phones, and it is the top screen.

In addition to OnePlusAce 3The highest brightness can reach4500nits,Its screen is alsoLTPOadaptive refresh curved screen,Brightness4000nits,LTPS straight screen Redmi K70Compared with,The display effect has obvious advantages in outdoor strong light,Daily use is not that silly bright,This oriental screen has made a lot of efforts in eye protection,It can be adjusted to the mode that makes you look most comfortable,Particular"Bright eyes and eye protection"function,Reduce stroboscopy,Turn off the lights at night and lie in bed for a long time to read novels and watch videosI didn't feel any discomfort in my eyes.

Some friends may still be struggling with the 1.5K and 2K problem,To be honest,The mobile phone screen is not big,The details shown are not comparable to the TV screen,Unless you often use your mobile phone to see pixel-level image files,Otherwise, the difference is not big,Or the adaptive refresh rate can be perceived in actual use,It really saves power and increases battery life。

In terms of screen unlocking, OnePlus Ace 3 is an ultra-thin optical fingerprint, Redmi K70 still uses a short-throw fingerprint with a lower cost, from the actual experience, the ultra-thin optical fingerprint unlocking experience is definitely better, it will not be affected by the environment, light and other factors, and has higher stability and accuracy, such as supporting wet hand unlocking, faster unlocking speed, etc. In addition, the position of the ultra-thin optical fingerprint is slightly upward, so that the thumb can be placed naturally on the screen when unlocking. The short-throw fingerprint position is relatively low, the fingers are very awkward when unlocking, and it is easy to lose the center of gravity and even drop the phone. These are all gaps in details, and on the whole, OnePlus has done a more comprehensive job.

Image strength, who is in charge?

Redmi K70: Rear 50 million pixel triple camera, the main camera is the light and shadow hunter 800 outsole custom sensor, that is, OV50E, support IOS optical image stabilization, can achieve 30 fast photos per second. Supplemented by an 8-million-pixel ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2-million-pixel macro lens, it can meet the needs of users in daily shooting scenes.

OnePlus Ace 3: Sony IMX 890 flagship main camera, 50 million pixel main camera, 1/1.56-inch outsole, F/1.88 large aperture, support OIS optical image stabilization, with 112° ultra-wide-angle lens and 4cm macro lens, and OPPO flagship image algorithm support (ultra-clear image quality algorithm, ultra-light and shadow image algorithm, exclusive photonic matrix technology) in the software.

Let's take a look at the sample performance:

OnePlus Ace 3's Sony IMX890 main camera and Redmi K70's Light and Shadow Hunter 800 main camera are both powerful players, and the photo effect has its own characteristics. Whether it's a daily photo shoot or a night shot, they can handle it with ease. So, in terms of the image system, it depends on each person's favorite image adjustment.

It is worth mentioning that,This time, OnePlusAce 3 even took the OPPO watchman's super light and shadowProXDR display technology,With the blessing of the oriental screen,It can better restoreHDRshooting effect,Accurately restore the natural light and shadow of the photo,In the environment of large light ratio,Make the photo more shocking,This function is not available in RedmiK70。

Endurance and fast charging, who is more powerful?

In terms of battery life, OnePlus Ace 3 is equipped with a large 5500mAh battery, while the Redmi K70 is 5000mAh, although the charging power of the Redmi K70 is up to 120W, but the OnePlus Ace 3's 100W fast charging is not slow. In the actual test charging, it takes 23 minutes for Redmi K70 to be charged from 1% to 100%, and it takes 25 minutes for OnePlus Ace 3 to be charged from 1% to 100% full, and OnePlus Ace 3 has a larger battery capacity and naturally stronger battery life, which is quite practical for friends who often go out.

In the Xiaobai battery life test database, OnePlus Ace 3's battery life ranks fifth, which is close to the battery life performance of OnePlus 12, and it is far behind Redmi K70, which shows the strong battery life performance of OnePlus Ace 3.

In addition to the difference in charging and battery life, OnePlus Ace 3 supports fast charging while playing, and adaptation to low-temperature environments, even in cold northern regions, OnePlus Ace 3's charging speed is better in low-temperature environments. Moreover, it has a built-in SUPERVOOC S power management chip and a number of self-developed algorithms, which can not only flash charge when the power is low, but also turn on temperature control and long-term charging protection when abnormal temperature is detected, and the battery capacity is still ≥ 80% after 1600 charging and discharging cycles, and the battery is still very durable after 4 years of use.

AI large model, who is cost-effective?

Since entering 2024, AI has become a hot topic of national discussion, from the Wensheng video Sora released by OpenAI, to the release of many new AIPC products, and the AI mobile phones that major mobile phone manufacturers are following up, AI seems to be getting closer and closer to our ordinary consumers.

Take mobile phones as an example, as the largest carrier of AI popularization, driven by the AI model, the mobile phone industry will undergo great changes in 2024. At present, all major mobile phone manufacturers will take AI mobile phones as the focus of development, whether it is Apple, which cancels the car manufacturing and increases AI, or Samsung and a number of domestic head mobile phone brands, Meizu even bets on the future All in AI, and OPPO is the first to apply 7 billion parameter large models on the side end of the Find X7 series, and also popularizes the AI large model capability to more models through OTA, including OnePlus Ace 3, which also makes users call the more they use it, the more fragrant it is!

OnePlus Ace 3 has comprehensively upgraded its AI model during the Chinese New Year this year, supporting nearly 100 AI capabilities such as AI elimination, AI call summarization, and the new Xiaobu Assistant, improving the user experience in many application scenarios.

Before the advent of AI, the image erasure operation of smartphones could only eliminate the entire area through the hand animation area, and the overall sample effect was not ideal. However, after the emergence of AI elimination, you only need to make a light circle on the picture that needs to be processed, and you can quickly identify some people or objects in the circle that need to be eliminated, and eliminate and repair them in the fastest time, and even the effect after elimination can be completely comparable to using PS on the computer to process.

AI's voice assistant already has the ability to really assist in daily life, for example, I want Xiaobu Assistant to provide a travel plan, and Xiaobu Assistant will tailor a list of plans that are most suitable for you according to some information and needs you provide, from travel methods to precautions to some nearby delicacies, etc., and even time arrangements, making it easier to travel as soon as you go.

Xiaobu AI call summary is also one of the practical functions, not only conference calls, but also scenes such as dinner and travel with friends and family, etc., can also play a role, getting rid of the traditional way of paper and pen recording. When you are on a call, you can directly click on the "Smart Summary" to record the content of the call during the call, which is also very useful in scenarios such as conference calls. And it can also automatically categorize and summarize the content of the record in the form of memos and to-dos, so that you can easily review it later. At the same time, it will also generate a list of conversations during the call, which can more intuitively understand who the person who said this sentence at that time, and it is more convenient to review.

Redmi K70 also supports AI function,In terms of the most basic logical communication ability,Redmi K70Xiaoai and OnePlus Ace 3 Xiaobu have better performance,Whether it is logical quantity calculation or common sense life questions, they have been answered correctly。 In long conversations,Let the AI assistant summarize the matters in the content、Summary and reminder,RedmiK70Xiaoai,It only has the function of summarizing long content,It is impossible to summarize and remind items one by one。 The OnePlus Ace 3 can summarize and summarize long sentences, and it also supports the related functions of summarizing and summarizing our call recordings, which is a little more functional. I believe that this year will be a big year for AI mobile phones, and when the AI functions of each family are polished and perfected, AI mobile phones will definitely bring changes to our lives.

summary

Through the above comparative analysis, we can see: in the 2500 yuan price segment, OnePlus Ace 3 and Redmi K70 are very cost-effective mobile phones, each with its own advantages, whether it is design aesthetics, performance beasts, eye protection screen, image strength and battery life and fast charging, they all show their unique charm.

If you value 2k resolution more, don't care about battery life, don't play games too much, and are obsessed with straight screens, then Redmi K70 is undoubtedly a good choice; And if you care about the comprehensive eye protection, battery life, ultra-thin fingerprint unlocking, better gaming experience, more practical AI intelligent assistant and other advantages of the screen, then the comprehensive OnePlus Ace 3 will definitely surprise you! If you choose the 16+512 version, the price of the two is the same, but the OnePlus Ace 3 product power is more prominent.
