With the perfect conclusion of the "2023 Master Lu Niujiaojian Year-end Ceremony" on January 18, let us sigh that there will be so many scientific and technological achievements in 2023, and at the same time, we are also looking forward to what new products will be in the mobile phone circle in 2024.
No, with the Lunar New Year approaching, Master Lu's first monthly report of 2024 is also coming as scheduled. It is said that at the beginning of the year, at this time node, many big brands choose to show off their annual flagships and lay the tone of the year's products, and the schedule of the first month of this year has long been filled with the major annual flagships.
So now, let's take a look at which new machines will be on the list in January 2024, and see if the results of these new machines have made some "old-timers" start to sweat.
Performance list: The competition for blockbuster flagships is hot, and the OPPO Find X7 series takes the top twoIt is not difficult to see from the products on the list in January that this month is a month of blockbuster flagships, and in the flagship competition with such a high density, there are two products belonging to the same series but they are in the limelight, not only are the products highly anticipated from the beginning of the announcement, but after the release, they have won the top two places in the performance list of Master Lu's new machine list in January.
That's right, they are the OPPO Find X7 series. As OPPO's well-deserved annual imaging flagship product line, this year's Find X7 series, OPPO still brings unprecedented high-end configurations to it.
First of all, it can be seen from the product model that this year's OPPO Find X7 series has uniquely abandoned the category of "Pro", and directly threw out the standard version of the OPPO Find X7 and Find X7 Ultra.
The reason why the "Pro" product plan was abandoned, according to the official description of OPPO, is because this time OPPO is very confident in the product power of the OPPO Find X7 standard version, saying that it has an experience that surpasses the "PRO" level.
In the end, this is indeed the case, in terms of performance, the OPPO Find X7 and Find X7 Ultra still continue the dual-chip strategy of Qualcomm + MediaTek.
The OPPO Find X7 is equipped with MediaTek's latest, and also extremely brilliant flagship processor this year, the Dimensity 9300. The design of the whole large core,Let the Dimensity 9300 have a higher theoretical performance ceiling at the time of release,On this basis,The machine is also equipped with OPPO's self-developed tidal architecture,Through the performance research to the bottom layer of the chip,Realize the ultra-dynamic scheduling of heterogeneous computing units,Let the flagship mobile phone can have both the ultimate performance release、The ultimate energy efficiency performance,And the ultimate lasting stability,Completely rewrite the working method of the mobile phone chip,Redefine the meaning of extreme performance。
In the end, the OPPO Find X7 won the first place in Master Lu's January 2024 new phone performance list with a total score of 1578277 points.
In terms of imaging, the Find X7 is the first to feature a new generation of ultra-light and shadow imaging systems jointly developed by OPPO and Hasselblad, including the larger 1 1The 4-inch 50-million-pixel ultra-light sensor large bottom wide angle, the higher-resolution 64-million-pixel ultra-light periscope telephoto, and the 50-million-pixel ultra-wide angle with a larger field of view of 119°. The all-new ultra-light outsole wide angle brings a 50% increase in light intake, and for the first time, it supports the full DCG HDR function, providing better motion and light for ** and ** shooting.
As for the higher-end Oppo Find X7 Ultra, it is equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen3 processor, and is equipped with an unprecedented dual periscope quad main camera system in terms of imaging, as well as a new one-inch sensor defined by the first Super Light and Shadow Engine, and also brings Android's first and the world's only two full-focal length 4K Dolby Vision HDR** recording. With such a luxurious configuration, the Find X7 series won the first and second place in the performance list in one fell swoop, which is also expected.
In third place went to ROG 8, an extreme performance monster and the ultimate gaming phone. As the only brand in the domestic market that is still specializing in "e-sports gaming phones", ROG still has its own advantages in this track.
This generation of the ROG 8 series continues to improve its peripherals while maintaining the ultimate gaming experience of the previous generation. In terms of performance, Snapdragon 8 Gen3 + LPDDR5X + UFS 4The ** performance combination of 0 has long been needless to say.
In terms of peripheral experience, ROG 8 is not only equipped with 678-inch 165Hz Samsung E6 flexible screen, and the full-featured Type-C interface design on the side that players love has been retained, playing games, charging and expansion are not conflicting, and the bottom is also equipped with a Type-C interface, and the dual Type-C interface is more convenient to use.
3The 5mm headphone jack is also not absent. The design of dual Type-C ports + headphone jacks increases the difficulty of dustproof and waterproof body, and most devices on the market that support IP68 are trying to avoid too many openings, while the ROG 8 series not only retains 3The 5mm headphone jack also adopts the design of dual Type-C interfaces, but it still achieves IP68 dust and water resistance. It also adds 50W wireless charging, as well as a new Cooler Fan X.
In the end, this first ultimate professional e-sports gaming phone in 2024 won the third place in the performance list of new phones in January with a score of 1535815 points.
The fourth place is from the Honor that has achieved quite good market performance and its flagship at the beginning of the year, the Honor Magic6 Pro.
As the *** magic launched after Glory became independent, Honor Magic6 Pro is also equipped with the latest Android flagship chip Snapdragon 8 Gen3, and its highlight is that with the blessing of the second-generation Qinghai Lake battery and Dujiangyan power management system, the Honor Magic6 Pro with a 5600mAh large-capacity battery can have a strong long battery life experience. And it finally finished fourth on the list with a score of 1472364 points.
The fifth place on the list comes from the OnePlus Ace 3, which has a solid reputation after its release and has received a good reputation from consumers. As a new product of the ACE series, it continues the concept of OnePlus's product power first, the performance stack is still solid enough, and it is also further upgraded in terms of design, screen, image, etc., as the beginning of OnePlus 2024, OnePlus Ace 3 once again makes the flagship experience fully popular, and the range is wider and deeper, from performance to all-round.
As a performance-oriented product, OnePlus Ace 3 uses a second-generation Snapdragon 8 processor + LPDDR5X + UFS 40 hardware combination, and finally ranked fifth on the list with a score of 1432542. Even more than two Honor devices with better processors on paper.
Finally, the heaviest global flagship in January, of course, is still Samsung's Galaxy S24 series, this year's Galaxy S24 series is not much different from the previous generation in terms of hardware parameters and design, and the most important upgrade is the addition of Galaxy AI. However, at present, there are differences in the final experience between the Bank of China and the international version due to the different AI large model providers accessed, but this still does not affect the Galaxy S24 Ultra to become the "king of machines" in most people's hearts.
Smooth list: ColorOS 14 is still strong, and the Honor X50 GT has become a dark horseThe leader of the new machine fluency list in January is ColorOS, which just won the "Most Smooth Mobile Phone System of the Year" at Master Lu's 2023 year-end ceremony. Among the top four on the list, there are three devices equipped with it on the list.
First place is the Oppo Find X7 Ultra, a well-deserved video camera equipped with ColorOS 14. First of all, the Oppo Find X7 Ultra's powerful hardware system lays a solid foundation for an excellent and smooth experience throughout the phone. Snapdragon 8 Gen3+ tidal architecture,Fully unleash the performance of this mobile phone,And ColorOS 14For starting、Switching、Sliding、Loading、Transmission、Display made six key experience optimizations that go deep into the bottom of Android**,With the blessing of the "ColorOS supercomputing platform",Make the smooth experience of the whole phone more in-depth and comprehensive,Finally,On the Master Lu APP,218.With a score of 71 points, he came out on top.
The second-place product is a surprise, because its paper parameters are not excellent in the new machine in January, and the performance score is slightly inferior, but in terms of system smooth experience, it can surpass most of the scheming that is much better than its own configuration, yes, it is the Honor X50 GT.
Although it is said that the Snapdragon 8+ carried by the Honor X50 GT does lack some competitiveness in terms of performance today, it is equipped with MagicOS 72, but it has helped this phone achieve a smooth experience that is difficult to measure by hardware parameters.
In MagicOS 7In 2, Honor brings us the capabilities of OS Turbo X, GPU Turbo X, Link Turbo X, and intelligent scheduling engine, using system-level tuning and platform-level reconstruction to create a scenario-based smooth experience. The next-generation OS Turbo X can improve the startup speed of applications through AI preloading technology, and provide accurate supply of resources for applications through scene perception and user understanding learning, making every operation smoother in scenarios such as animation switching, heavy loads, complex drawing, browsing and sliding, and content**.
And now magicos 72 The application sliding rate has been reduced by 43%, the application launch response delay has been reduced by 29%, the in-app click response delay has been reduced by 22%, and the desktop operation response delay has been reduced by 15%, bringing kernel-level underlying performance enhancements to the Honor X50 GT.
In third place is the OPPO Find X7 equipped with Dimensity 9300 and Tidal architecture. The self-developed Tidal architecture launched on the OPPO Find X7 is the result of the in-depth joint development between OPPO and MediaTek in the Find X7, which has many patented technologies belonging to OPPO, and is a collection of the company's self-developed chip software and hardware fusion technology.
OPPO profoundly pointed out that the current SOC chip faces two major bottlenecks in improving computing efficiency. One is that the performance link of smartphones has been studying the classic von Neumannian structure, and the storage and computing are separated, resulting in the storage read and write speed being much lower than the CPU computing speed. The second is the lack of scenario-level cognition in the chip scheduling scheme.
The tidal architecture is based on the judgment of a single scenario to achieve accurate analysis of the current application's system resource requirements. For scenarios where computing tasks are predominant, actively allocate more cache to the CPU; In the rendering task scenario, resources are tilted to the GPU. According to official calculations, the Tidal architecture can not only achieve an average energy efficiency saving of 8%, but also dynamically enhance the GPU driving capability through accurate chip computing power scheduling, solve the problem of GPU control display delay consistency, and ensure the consistency of the system's startup performance. As a result, the OPPO Find X7 has achieved a very smooth system experience.
The fourth-place OnePlus Ace 3 is more sophisticated in terms of smooth experience, after all, OnePlus's annual flagship product OnePlus 12 has just won the crown of "the longest used smooth mobile phone of the year" at the Master Lu 2023 year-end ceremony in January.
In addition to the Snapdragon 8 Gen2 processor, the OnePlus Ace 3 is also equipped with a full-blooded version of LPDDR5X and UFS 40, and there is also memory recombination 20. With the blessing of storage renewal technology, the most intuitive experience is that the system is very smooth and smooth to operate, and it can achieve 72-hour long-lasting survival for 34 conventional applications, and it has also obtained the 48-month A-level fluency certification of South Germany, and the fourth place on the list is well deserved.
Well, the above is all the content of the new machine monthly report in January 2024, here, Master Lu first gives you an early year, I wish you a happy Lunar New Year, the mobile phone market in February, the new machine has been called out, and it will be more exciting at that time.
