Scientists and technical workers have long had a vision of replication technology, but it was not until in the 1980 of the 20th century, the concept of 3D printing to be truly begin to take shape. But today, many 3D items appear on our side, have a huge 3D printing building, science and technology of 3D printed car fan, exquisite 3D trinkets ... ... 3D printing received so sought after, but 3D printers are very mysterious. Hello Kitty Galaxy Note 3 case

As a pioneer of 3D printing, Czech Republic since its inception in 2012, has introduced two 3D printers, Germany held on the trade fair CeBIT, Czech Republic and launch a fully automated 3D printer "DeeGreen".

Start using

DeeGreen dimensions 495 x 395 x 390 mm, height is not too big, occupies a modest circumstances are free at home or the Office. Print volume with a maximum size of 150 x 150 x 150 mm, in short is a DeeGreen not a one-time print width and height more than 15 cm long.

Printer's front has a touch screen and an SD card slot.

Back is a power switch and a USB port connected to the computer via the USB cable that came with it. In case of inconvenient SD card can also be used to transmit data.

Get a printer, we do not require any Assembly, DeeGreen the important parts have been assembled, this newcomer is a big benefit. But before you start printing, we need to load the print material. Of course, we also need to put the glass printed circuit board in the printer.

Complete the installation of the above two steps, then there is the printer calibration. Used 3D printer should know the calibration are important parts of a printer. To ensure consistency throughout the print platforms and perfect the distance between the print head nozzles. Proper calibration determines the quality of each print item.

DeeGreen has a built-in sensor, before each time you print, it only takes a few seconds to complete the self calibration, greatly reduce the user's difficulty and saves users time. Hello Kitty Galaxy Note 3 case

We need to understand a software to print on the computer side (the software supports both Windows and Mac), install DeeControl this printing software can load a 3D model file. By pulling the mouse can look at models can even simulate the whole process of 3D printing.

Must was will tangled Yu how get 3D model file, here introduced three species method: first species is through thingiverse database, selected himself like of items model; second species is through SketchUp software himself created model file, requirements has must of painting based, technology content than high; last is buy a 3D scanner has, just scan side like of items on can get corresponding items of model file, entered to printer in on can began print has, but 3D Scanner is not very cheap.

Complete 3D model files, we need to save the document, and then enter into the printer began to print. Either through an external SD card transfer documents can also directly connect the printer on the computer.

According to the size and complexity of the model, typically takes 20 seconds to complete the save work in the SD card in the card slot of the printer, and then use the DeeGreen touch-screen to start the printing, the printing process is fully automated.

If it is a direct serial printer on a computer, then completed a large 3D models, can take up to half an hour.

DeeControl also supports customization, including size of the 3D object, print quality, and so on.

DeeGreen also supports multiple items at the same time print and, of course, provided that all items add up to no more than the size of the print volume size (150*150*150mm).

DeeGreen is an upgraded version of DeeOrange and DeeRed in print have greatly improved their speed and detail. In the case of setting the highest print quality, took only an hour to finish his iPhone 4S, by contrast, Monoprice printer takes 2 hours.

Like Monoprice 3D printer, DeeGreen a certain level of noise while working. Although not loud but definitely disturb normal office, it is recommended that you have a separate "print room".

Print item display:

Conclusion

DeeGreen printer for an upgrade version, print speed and detailed description has been greatly improved, and it has a built-in touch screen software, calibrators, and simple operation, Plug and play, easy to use, small white users are able to easily get started.

Unfortunately DeeGreen is expensive, cost as much as $ 1900, such a high threshold, coupled with the external SD card operation, scare a large number of users willing to buy.

Zuckerberg s target is not a billion but this drives wife crazy AI home

Zuckerberg set small goals for myself every year, examples include learning Chinese, read 2 books a month, and Zuckerberg 2016 goal is to build a similar smart Butler Jarvis in iron man (Jarvis) system. Disney ipad mini

Today Facebook Town Hall in Rome with audience questions and expressed the hope that as soon as next month to demonstrate his AI helper system.

When he set the goal says:

"In 2016, the challenges I set for itself was to build a simple AI systems, not only manage my home, can help me with my work. You can think of it as Jarvis in iron man.

I want to start exploring the existing advanced technologies. First of all, I'm going to let it get my voice to control House music, lighting, temperature and so on. Then, I'll teach it to recognize my friend in the face, when the guests when the doorbell is pressed, the system will automatically open the door to let them in. Next, Max I will teach it to notify me any abnormal condition in the room. At work, it will help me with my data visualization in VR. "

So it would appear that Zuckerberg's "Jarvis" will use speech recognition, image recognition, and VR technology. While Facebook Town Hall lizhakeboge, almost all basic goals have been achieved.

He said:

"Now I am able to control the lights, doors and interior temperature ... ... When I stand at the door, no need to insert a key does not have to enter any password door can open doors, AI can recognize my face and let me in, it was very fun. "

However, the system was somewhat upset by his wife, he joked: "my wife is crazy, now Assistant will listen only to me because when I'm programming, only allow it to recognize my voice. This is when software engineers of big fun, you can do this. "But he says he will open his wife's permission. Disney case

Zuckerberg have a lot of fun in his small goals, 2016 has been a part of it, how is your target?

Quad Core Quad core experience Huawei of China experience with dismantling and

September 8, at two o'clock in the afternoon, of Moonlight bar, dameisha in Shenzhen, held Huawei China "quad-core experience" quad-core tablet, mobile phone experience. Event invitations from major media, forums and even a personal player to participate in, experience the charm of Huawei products. Protagonist of the event, is no doubt its own Hass K3V2 quad core processor two products MediaPad 10 FHD Ascend D1 Quad.

Prior to the take part in the event, small has tested this quad-core full HD flat-panel, details see MediaPad 10 FHD review. And Ascend D1 Quad is small series for the first time come into contact with the product, then please look at the details of the day's activities.

 

In bright sunshine, accompanied by small series came to da Mei Sha Moonlight bar, the staff has to place banners outside.

 

Make it a day equipment.

 

Booth filled with the MediaPad 10 FHD gift and related activities.

  Moschino Galaxy S4 Cases

Huawei's staff came to power plate, cell phone-related information.

 

Quad-core sample tablets and mobile phones.

 

Small series to get the day's experience of two products.

 

Ascend D1 Quad is the product of small series of first contact, also playing in this small series before the Ascend D1, Ascend D1 of the Quad feels thick a lot, because the battery increases to 2600mAh, and thickness is increased to 10.9mm, plus slip behind lines, texture of the whole machine gives a very "strong" feelings. Ascend D1 Quad ultra narrow frame design, grip isn't so bad. But I still prefer the Ascend D1 Scrubs or Ascend P1 piano paint shell after more, hoping to Ascend D1 Quad introduced thin white version, which may be more loved by the people. The phone can also open, can be designed to be used for design, sacrificed some battery capacity, and achieve the purpose of replaceable batteries, believe that users will be happy to accept.

 

Small hands grip the machine is stress-free.

 

The antiskid lines behind.

 

Back cover can be easily dismantled, apart and can see the 2600mAh high capacity fuselage carrying a battery. See also Ascend Ascend D1 and D1 Quad "red circle" lens and Red speaker.

 

Due to Ascend D1 Quad play time is not much, only briefly to say some feelings. Screen area, 4.5 inch 720P IPS performance is still good, because carrying high frequency 1.4G of quad-core processors, all kinds of operations are very smooth, no cotton. Photo back-illuminated 800W camera also has a strong performance. Due to Ascend D1 Quad prototype got the pitch cannot be brought back for more tests, the specific content and small series have a chance to get the official version of the machine after further evaluation.

 

MediaPad 10 FHD disassemble the site links, this is the first time Huawei to disassemble in front of the media. Estimate our friends on this thin quad-core full-HD flat-panel Interior also will be of great interest, come and have a look.

Teardown begins.

 

Many hands make light work.

 

Within the Compact.

 

Slim battery.

 

Huawei people very hard, and disassemble when he injured his hand. Moschino Galaxy Case

 

Board part, because covered with a shield, so you don't see concrete chips.

Tesla drive China s first hit Failed to identify the front car

According to the media, said, in recent days, Qunar_ Rome dinars, a SINA weibo users post, said their new Tesla Model s sedan in automatic mode, the trip was in the inside lane docked in front of Santana is not recognized, no obstructions in front of the system immediately accelerated, finally hit the right rear side of the car, but fortunately no casualties. Ted Baker Galaxy S4 Case

Qunar_ Rome described Cristiano Ronaldo, he discovered through video, when Tesla's autopilot system before the crash there is at least one 5-second reaction time, but have not been identified at this time black Santana.

Afterwards, Qunar_ Rome dinars to write to the Tesla drive system technology is not mature, there are various BUG, which reads as follows:

Not mature technology investor story-no problem, but you abused it as your marketing gimmick, that would be wrong. You can promote your technical content, but should not be sales continue to strengthen this concept, and optional automatic drive suite, is the need for additional spending of more than 20,000 dollars.

In May of this year, foreign countries have similar incidents happening in the Tesla Model s,. According to foreign media reports, when a Tesla Model s on autopilot mode speed if the vehicles change lanes in front, but failed to detect a fault car goods vehicle which occupies half of the driving Lane, speed bumped up after.

Both of these accidents, Tesla has so far failed to give detailed instructions automatic driving systems are sometimes unable to identify obstructions.

Industry analysts say, the current autonomous vehicle technology is not perfect, far from complex traffic situations in real time. Through these accidents can be speculated that parts of the Tesla's head sensors may detect blind spots, obstacles within the vehicle does not recognize a certain angle.

Dive Sport cool Wear a virtual reality glasses football

Games and entertainment, and there is a craze for virtual reality technology, but in the field of sport, the use of this technology has not been very good. New founded United States EON Sports VR company raised in Kansas City, Missouri website project Dive Sport on Kickstarte, hoping to virtual reality technology with the United States's hottest sports football combine. Virtual reality equipment Dive Sport controlled by a Smartphone, like in a televised match or rugby training camp in General, allows users to "personally" feel the charm of football.

In addition, EON Sports VR created Sidekiq software to build virtual Dive Sport Games "story scripts". Sidekiq is actually a football Simulator, operators use it in developing virtual reality game world football team tactics and play. United States many football coaches have been using the Sidekiq software, but also not equipped with virtual reality equipment.

Football training is the most famous Dive Sport is the most widely used functions, but also received support from many professionals in the industry. United States Football League in the history of the legendary coach Mike Ditka, once in the 80 's the Chicago Bears into the top teams, he said of Dive Sport, "it set off a revolution in football training--Dive Sport allows users to more in-depth study of the game, analyzing opponents, and better improve the self-concept. When you use the Dive Sport, and realistic motion of virtual reality brings you realism is a 3D movie are not horses. This is a revolutionary innovation. "

EON Sports VR CEO Brendan Reilly said, "if raising success of the project, we will Dive in the future improvement of Sport adds more social features on the mobile client. " Cath Kidston iPhone 6 covers

"Now still feel incredible, our project is able to gain so much support so far. Product has now been achieved to construct complex interactions in mobile gaming environment, what coaches want to invite more organizations and individuals actively involved in the response, not only with us, but for users with more valuable, the applicability of the recommendations, let the Dive Sport to help learners of rugby. Although it is our goal to raise $ 50000, which is just getting started with project and product resources. In fact we have bigger ambitions. "

Hammer technology publicly for the first time today on VR VR have not succeeded

Lei feng's network (search for "Lei feng's network" public attention): based on the Hammer technology, design Director of pumel speech at the singularity • innovators Summit finish, Lei feng's network does not change the intent of the deletion.

Virtual reality in China in 2012 is just a known term, now all hot spots in the technology industry, we believe that virtual reality is the next common man-machine computing platform. DKNY

VR、AR、MR、CR...... I don't know what r the future, but you can call the HMD (Head Mount Display), because it is a head-mounted display.

"The HMD is mankind's last piece of screen", I don't know who said that, perhaps Mark Twain said.

First according to human on equipment of needs do a judge, from first in stone Shang records information--stone is a is to interactive, you to lettering hard, is not can mobile, is big range of displayed equipment; then invention has Zhang paper, and screen, then invention has TV, and computer, last is this years we invention has intelligent phone or called handheld computer, is can interactive can mobile of small screen. History is hard to combine convenience and display area. Or convenient, but the show has an area of limited or the display is large and cannot be moved. Until the emergence of HMD, you can move and a 360-degree screen, it is already the largest monitor.

Picture source: 3dprintingindustry

Let us look at PC,PC starting from 2011 into slow decline. Look at the Smartphone industry, from Apple's first generation by 2015 was on the rise last year, appeared in the first quarter of this year since the 1994 IBM invented the first smart phone for the first time since the recession.

(In the industry) to find an export, the export must be platform-level, the second must be the universal level to meet the platform level and the versatility of the only HMD.

So, why VR yet today?

From the user's previous demands, the entire industry needs and the needs of human imagination, we believe that VR it certainly can, but why not now?

First of all, it does not have a unified interactive form:

This year most first-class VR and AR devices on the market such as: Gear VR, Rift CV1, etc, their interaction devices no one looks the same.

On the PC, device is a mouse and keyboard, at most a touchpad. Mobile easier, on a touch screen.

VR and AR field HMD how many devices, we can look at. This is not exactly a statistic, incomplete statistics there are 10 kinds of interactive programmes. We don't need 10, you only need 1 elegant interaction scenarios, but it still does not appear, this is the first reason why not.

Second reason is there is no uniform operating system:

HTC Vive, and Oculus, and PSVR, and OSVR and the HoloLens, each platform has a different look, different SDK ... ... To test the operating system on the market for at least 9 species.

Source: techinsider

Because hardware target limit of the third without problems:

First VR good picture of our imagination.

Let us look at the resolution, mainstream manufacturers as 2160x1200, but is assigned to only half of each eye, is 1200x1080, and to make matters worse, in fact accepted by the naked eye limiting resolution is 730x730, what is the concept? In 2016, today our VR equipment can see pixels, equal to 1998 15-inch CRT monitor.

Consumption function, in that the resolution of the case, a conservative estimate is 2.1 times times the game calculation screen 1080P display. The first generation of HMD, each one of us also need to calculate at least 4 million pixels, and at least 90 frames, you need to 11.11ms a picture. We need a more powerful computer, we need three pieces of graphics cards, an eight-core CPU and cooling ... ...

We are on Earth only if 3% VR can meet the requirements, 1% can meet the ideal requirements for VR, the worst, most people first experienced VR device is a computer, this is the most tragic. If you want to reach the ideal picture, picture of retinal level, we need two 16K screen refresh rate of 240 frames.

More from the limit of human beings, into the virtual world, we see images of flying, but ass to tell you to sit on a stool, the results will make you very dizzy; fear more, once our fear comes from ahead, 45-inch screen, now fears from all sides, fear of 360.

No unified interaction, there is no uniform system, hardware limitations, many more human limits, this is no reason for it.

When can you?

We say 2014 is the first virtual reality, but like a year back during the first year, the first year of what has happened in the past, nothing happened. DKNY iPhone cases

When we look at the entire technology industry timeline when there are basically several time periods, first of all, there is a company, a product, a company defines standard, then some accessibility standards of the company, and then plateau into the product.

From the invention of a product to a company-defined standard to experience how long, for 13 years in the PC, Smartphone from IBM invented the first smart phone, Apple appears after 14 hours. HMD from appears to not yet defined who, after 21 years.

Can this factor is that standard-setters appear, he must work out everything, this definition must be like iOS, from software to hardware and SDK to all input device to do, define VR standard's company still did not appear.

We look at the situation now, at what stage, if you put the timeline in 10 dimensions. From 2014 to 2020, we are still in early stages of premature and premature closing stages, something we believe is about to happen, from closed to open. Stage of maturity will experience not from a closed to an open and standard definition appears--it must be a closed system, then there will be a company called standard followers. Standard-setters and standard following these two things are the VR, AR the same two things that are important, when can this two things mark this thing, so we think the second very important thing is the emergence of open platform.

I'm going to head, I know that two things--VR, AR you can become.

When it appears, we believe that in 2019, will appear, define what VR, or AR come; two years after 2019 follower of standards, which is an open platform. This is something in 2019 and 2021, 2016 until now, what do we do at this time? If we don't do anything, is OK. No, probably only at this stage can be born great companies (Adobe, and Oracle, a company like EA are born during this period). Only at a earlier time, have a chance to let entrepreneurs into the wave, became the trendsetter of the industry.

A gloomy statistics, to 2019 when the VR industry output value is about $ 20 billion, based on the optimistic statistics, standard-setters, standard followers will appear in 2025, 9 years later the industry will reach us $ 182 billion, more than PC industry production value.

With enthusiasm but I want to say is we in this business, not because of the numbers, but the human imagination, the things I want to say is that we do, for the first time gives us almost unlimited possibilities of mankind as a whole, to create a new world, to create a real dream, this is the mission and dream to think that people of our generation, thank you!

Pumel finally tells us that Hammer technology around 2015 has entered the field of VR, is the first domestic VR company and team. Since then the industry has less than 5 seen the hammer at this stage of the demo, all of the feedback was very surprised.

In addition, the message from the supply chain: the hammers have just launched the VR machine research and development.

Cross border duel vs Nexus Idol x 4 contrast evaluation

Idol and x is the TCL Jingdong and cooperation launched a customized cell phone, which had a 5-1080P full HD screen, strong 13.1 million pixel stack-camera configuration, thickness is only 6.99mm, whereas it carried MT6589T let us look forward to. Idol x-the strong Nexus between 4 and 2000 price comparison will be?

Configure Peterborough

First of all, we take a look at the configuration comparison between:

From their hardware comparison, the idol x except in SoC and battery capacity disadvantage, prevailed on the other screen, camera. While in screen and rear-facing cameras Idol x are very prominent, rear-mounted camera uses Sony sensor the stack, and millet 2S (32G), Find5 stack, such as camera is different, Idol x aperture to achieve the F2.0.

 

Design

Due to the Nexus 4 styling everyone is familiar with, Idol and x is the new phone, we take a careful look at the idol x shape.

 

From a profile view, Idol x have now thin large-screen phones good elements, the whole gives the impression is very thin, 5-inch OGS fitting large screen also gives a Visual impact, because Hyper-thin border of entry to make it grip better

 

Positive there is no mark, which is absorbed in the popular "premium black" design. Idol x design that uses the touch keys, the screen does not light up when the three touch-sensitive keys are not visible

 

We got the Red version (there are also yellow, and black) and back using a matte paint

 

Background noise-reducing microphone, 13.1 million respectively at the top stack type camera with a led light lamp

 

Speaker in the lower right corner, the left and right sides have small bumps, you can to some extent prevent the sound from being blocked

 

Paint is smooth on the side of the fuselage, and comes with a brushed dark stripes, the top is the key to opening and 3.5mm interfaces

 

Is microUSB interface on the bottom and call microphone

 

Left is slot 1 and slot using magnetic switch

 

Card slot 2 on the right side, below the volume keys

 

From the exterior, Idol x and Nexus 4 design styles vary greatly, Idol x-machine take a thin line, fuselage lines relatively tough, and Nexus 4 rounded fuselage. You can see in the following figure, although Idol x used 5-inch screen, but the fuselage was more slender, this is because the Nexus 4 portion of the screen is not 16:9, and the border is relatively thick

 

Side compare, apparent Idol x-more thin, camera projection

 

Comparison of border, we use Galaxy S4, Nubia Z5 for comparison, both belonging to the narrow borders of the mobile phone, but compared with Idol x is slightly raised

 

Screen effects

Idol x-1080P full HD level is 5-inch screen and use the OGS laminating technology, so on the screen better, we used the 2k prices compare the Nexus 4, the following is the screen really making a color effect.

 

Solid color contrast, Nexus 4 colors of Matt (Nexus is on 4, Idol under x)

 

White Nexus 4 is cool, Idol x-warm (be Nexus 4, Idol under x)

 

Due to the Nexus screen idol and 4 x are IPS technology, there will inevitably have a certain amount of leaked (is the Nexus on 4, Idol under x)

 

Bright shades, Idol x performance closer to the original Nexus 4 color too strong (Nexus is on 4, Idol under x)

The original image

 

Both distortion and Idol x better (be Nexus 4, Idol under x)

The original image

 

Idol x closer to the original image (is the Nexus on 4, Idol under x)

The original image

 

The PPI reached the screen idol x 441, no doubt on the finesse works better than 720P screen, however normal range is hard to gap the differences through macro zoom in you can clearly see the difference between the two

 

UI design

Idol x depth is used to customize the UI, based on Android 4.2.2, starter does a distinctive, primary secondary menu design was cancelled by the system, system icons after a unified rectangular design. Relative to the primary system, style is still relatively fresh (because of the Nexus 4 brush AOKP ROM, so change + virtual key, left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

Idol x started device of maximum features is except can around sliding zhiwai, started device placed plug-in of a page can for longitudinal of sliding, again match since with flat of of plug-in, looks somewhat similar Windows Phone system of "tile" UI, that a page displayed not finished of content can through upper and lower sliding for browse (Note Xia figure is started device of same page, through upper and lower sliding view longitudinal arranged of plug-in)

 

Idol System x lock screen also does unique, supports full screen weather effects, in addition to unlock buttons support the g-sensor, press the button after the unlock, phone calls, text messages and photographs and other shortcuts. Note figure in the white box is based on the accelerometer to move the Unlock button (left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

Idol x multitasking from the native's slide into a vertical slide (left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

Since Idol and x is based on Android is used 4.2.2 system, so the drop down bar shortcuts can also be displayed full screen, but becomes orange-yellow in color (left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

Similar to the layout and the native Android system settings, but changed to gray color scheme (left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

Idol x albums, support folder hide thumbnails, puzzles and other additional features

From the point of view of landscaping, Idol x UI is quite successful, give the feeling of comfort, many improvements were made based on the original system. Compared with MIUI this habit change a relatively large system, Idol x more suited to habits of primary system users, while there are many notable features.

 

System flow

Test TCL Y900, TCL UI optimization let impressive fluency, and the idol of the x configuration upgrade from 720P+MT6589 to 1080P+MT6589T, from the UI for fluency and not our Cottonwood concern, overall system gives the impression it is still smooth.

 

Hardware performance

Idol x using the SoC is mediatek's new MT6589T, it MT6589 main advantage than ever before is the increase of frequency, CPU jumped from 1.2GHz to 1.5GHz,GPU and from 286MHz to 357MHz, overall performance improvement is evident, we also measured to see how Idol x performance.

 

Theory test

Rabbit test 3.3.1

From the rabbit test, Idol x-RAM and CPU performance, higher scores than the previous MT6589 cell phone a lot, but because the resolution is too high, so that drawing performance is lower (left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

GFXBench 2.7.2

In the graphics test, increased frequency of MT6589T MT6589 phones better than ever, even beyond the frequency of OMAP4470 and Adreno 320 there is a gap (left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

Sunspider 1.0(Chrome V28)

Web page Javascript tests, 6589T with the 1.5GHz fared better than APQ8064 (the lower the score the better. Left Idol x, Nexus right 4)

 

Game testing

Using modern war games test test Iron Man 3 and 4, with the FPS Meter frame detection.

Video playback capability

X uses a full HD screen idol, is great for playing videos, we also tested using video, 720P and 1080P.

Both phones can cope with normal video requirements. Where the idol x "flow" representative can use to bring the player to play, the rest of the needed third-party player (BSPlayer test used here) for software decoding. MXPlayer Idol x support is not so good, estimated CPU model is a relatively new cause.

 

Photos

Idol x 13.1 million pixel sensor Sony stack is used, the aperture F2.0, following are real proofs and Nexus 4 contrast.

It can be seen that due to F2.0 large aperture, so the idol x measured at more pictures under low light, and also more good in color and detail. Nexus 4 glare is more serious.

In the rear-facing camera on the comparison of image quality no doubt Idol x better than Nexus 4 lots. In terms of features, Nexus 4 breathe out you can press menu, and Idol x-press is equivalent to pressing the shutter. In addition, the idol supported x volume button the shutter (Nexus 4 system can also be modified through a third party). On the focusing speed, Idol x slower, photographed less options, these are believed by upgrading the firmware will improve.

This ... Needless to explain.

It is worth mentioning that, Idol x also supports "four self", an increase of self interest

Battery life

Mediatek SoC in range in the past have shown outstanding Idol x paired with 2000mAh battery, relatively small compared with the Nexus 4 2100mAh, some, how about that comparison?

We first tested the intensity of modern warfare 4 test for 30 minutes, results are as follows:

Idol X:100% → 86% (uses 14%)

Nexus 4:100% → 74% (uses 26%)

 

3G test for another 20 minutes, results are as follows:

Idol X:84% → 78% (uses 6%)

Nexus 4:74% → 69% (uses 5%)

 

Judging by the results from the two tests, for game testing when there is a gap in terms of power consumption, Idol x obviously saving a lot, and 3G test, the difference between the two is small.

 

Fever

Immediately following the endurance test of the first part, we see at once the battery temperature and found Nexus 4 has reached 49 degrees Celsius and Idol x 41 degrees Celsius, both are quad-core processors 1.5GHz,28nm process, Cortex-A7 leader in power

 

Internet

Idol x support WCDMA+GSM dual SIM card dual standby, while the Nexus 4 only supports WCDMA card, both support H+ network. Below is the idol x-Dual SIM card set

 

Summary

TCL Idol x as the custom of Jingdong and cooperation, in 1699 price 5-inch full HD screen stack, 13 million Sony camera has been stronger than the phone with the price a lot. Idol x design also make up, ultra-thin border, plus 6.99mm ultra slim design for its shape considerably. In terms of UI, Idol x are also among the many custom ROM also showed its own characteristics, do well in landscaping and function. In contrast with the Nexus 4, x-screen idol, photographs, temperature, battery life, and so have shown a certain advantage, dual SIM dual standby is more fitting to the domestic user habits. In terms of hardware performance, MT6589T on absolute performance than APQ8064. Of course, mostly to buy Nexus 4 fancy "kiss the son" status, it's hardware configuration is not the main selling point. Overall, the idol for own location, x, is a recommended product, suitable for fashion users to screen and photo requirements.
