OPPO R15 evaluation: This time it is a brand-new experience from the outside to the inside.

IT168 evaluation in February 2113, OPPO R1, the first mobile phone in oppo r series, was officially launched. At that time, no one thought that the R series with the main appearance would become the fashion vane of OPPO and even the mobile phone circle. After five years, OPPO R15 returned to the glass body design again. Today, when the metal fuselage is still flooding, it is not easy to regain the glass material. Simple material changes may not even make a ripple in the user's mind, and OPPO R15 needs to be changed from the outside to the inside.

change: in order to let you see different

OPPO

cooperated with color master karim rashid to design a brand-new OPPO R15. The new machine * * * has four colors:

Snow White, Thermal Red, Starry Purple and Dream Mirror Red, of which

Snow White and Thermal Red are solid colors, while the other two models adopt gradient design.

In many color versions, Xiao Bian thinks that starry purple can best reflect the essence of the design of OPPO R15. "Color makes the product personalized". On OPPO R15 starry purple, every angle and different light can make the fuselage reflect different luster. The texture is not lost to metal, but also more moist than cold metal

Unlike the contrast design, the gradient design of OPPO R15 will not find an obvious boundary. Just like the sky when night falls gradually, there is still light in the deep visual space, which is mysterious and imaginative.

In Karim's design concept-there is no pure color in nature: "Pure color does not exist in nature, and the objects we see in nature are all made up of different colors. The gradient color actually exists naturally, and the real world should not be monotonous."

the purple metal frame further extends the horizon, and the color can flow from the back to the whole fuselage, which also brings a stronger layering to OPPO R15 starry purple.

Compared with R11s, the body size of OPPO R15 has not changed significantly, but OPPO R15 uses a 6.28-inch screen, which increases the viewing area by 4.35% and accounts for 91% of the screen.

2281×1181 brings a more immersive visual experience, but the special-shaped screen design at the top also brings the problem of APP adaptation. So what kind of solution does OPPO R15 come up with to the common problems in this industry?

full-screen gesture operation

OPPO R15 is loaded with its own ColorOS 5.1 system, which is deeply optimized based on Android 8.1. Compared with the changes in the operation interface, ColorOS 5.1 is more optimized for the special-shaped screen of OPPO R15. After all, while looking better, how to use it better is also the core of users' consideration.

ColorOS 5.1 system brings

OPPO R15 a brand-new gesture operation, which slides down on the desktop and the leftmost page to the right, and can open a quick search page and a sticky note page respectively. The search bar will also provide relevant search information, APP application information and information information according to the user's search habits. The note page provides daily life functions such as weather, step counting, express delivery, schedule and so on, and it is also very convenient to use.

OPPO R15 uses the slide-up gesture to replace the virtual buttons, and of course users can switch back by themselves. Because it does not occupy screen space, the up-sliding gesture can get the maximum display effect. There are also many schemes for sliding mobile phones, which can adapt to the habits of different users.

However, the task management and shortcuts of OPPO R15 are separated, and one is to slide from the bottom and the other is to pull down from the top. At this time, it must be operated with both hands, which makes it feel quite awkward to use.

Full-screen multitasking

In addition to operational changes, OPPO R15 has also added full-screen multitasking optimization for special-shaped full screens. Unlike general multi-tasking, OPPO R15 makes use of the top area of the special-shaped full screen. In landscape mode, three commonly used apps and three commonly used operations will be displayed at the top. When playing games or watching videos, you can quickly complete the operations without quitting.

▲ The switch of full-screen multitasking is in the top area, which reduces the impact on the game process

▲ The floating window operation mode can immediately close the chat window without switching between apps

▲ Screen capture and screen recording can also be opened with one button

At present, full-screen multitasking cannot be defined by itself. According to the feedback provided by p>OPPO, this setting is based on a large number of user surveys. According to the survey data, more users need to open temporary dual applications in horizontal entertainment, among which WeChat, QQ, which are more randomly used, are the most demanding applications, and the most demanding system functions are screen capture/recording, shielding notifications and other operations.

unify the specifications to solve the problem of adaptation of APP with special-shaped screen

OPPO has formulated a set of specifications to solve the problem of adaptation of APP with special-shaped full screen. With this set of specifications, the OPPO team has given priority to the adaptation of mobile phone preset applications, and at the same time adapted to the 311APP that 91% of users use the most. Of course, the adaptation work will continue. As for the relatively unpopular APPlication, OPPO told Xiaobian to disclose the detailed rules and documents about how to adapt the special-shaped screen to the developers, and work with the developers to promote the adaptation of the app.

▲ Taobao, Ctrip, Meituan and other commonly used APPs have been adapted

Apps that are also adapted have different performances, and the perfection of adaptation depends on the strength of the app development team. Like the above picture, Taobao and Ctrip have adapted to the full screen of OPPO R15. But Taobao's page expanded to the top area of the screen, realizing an immersive experience. Ctrip, on the other hand, only makes full use of the screen, and there is no corresponding design in the top area, so there are still some visual differences.

▲ For the APP that has not been adapted, OPPO R15 provides users with the option of stretching full-screen display

▲ Manual full-screen display can make the APP that has not been adapted for the time being try to open the "full-screen" effect

First launch Sony IMX519

After customizing IMX398 sensor with Sony, OPPO jointly developed IMX519 sensor with Sony again. And OPPO R15 has also changed from the 16 million+21 million dual camera scheme of R11/R11s to the 16 million+range finder dual camera scheme, which can also show OPPO's confidence in the new sensor from another direction.

▲F1.7 large aperture+large pixel area, which greatly increases the confidence of night shooting

Compared with IMX398, the photosensitive element area of Sony IMX519 is increased to 1/2.6 inch, and the single pixel area is increased from 1.12 to 1.22, an increase of 8.9%, with a larger photosensitive area and brighter dark light shooting; At the same time, the sampling rate of photos has been increased from 31 frames to 61 frames, and the speed of dynamic photos has become faster.

▲OPPO R15' s snapshot speed is improved

OPPO R15 has upgraded intelligent scene recognition, which can detect 121 kinds of scenes, classify them with 16 kinds of labels, and match different imaging optimization schemes. For example, indoor+portrait, outdoor+landscape, restaurant+food, etc., this recognition is automatically detected by the camera, and all the user has to do is press the photo button, which can be said to be an intelligent fool-like photo experience.

▲OPPO R15 camera interface, the scene detection prompt is in the upper left corner, which makes it more intuitive to use Chinese

from the real shooting experience, the first thing that impresses xiaobian most about OPPO R15 is the performance of imaging details. Although the weather is cloudy, OPPO R15' s compensation for light is still in place, which is closer to the real scene. For example, in the photo of flowers below, the photo of OPPO R15 does not blindly improve the brightness and saturation of the photo, but fully considers the transition between the highlight area and the shadow area, and the overall details of the subject are fully reflected.

For backlight photography, OPPO R15 has added a pixel-level 3-HDR real-time graded exposure technology, which uses different exposures among each sub-pixel in RGBG. The following photo is a sample of automatic HDR mode, and the contrast between light and dark is soft and natural, especially the details in the dark are preserved.

3-HDR real-time graded exposure technology seems to be equally effective in night scene shooting. This photo was specially tried by Xiaobian. Many mobile phones either have a dark picture when the signboard is exposed normally, or the highlights at the signboard are completely overflowing.

You can notice that there are several bright positions such as house numbers and lanterns in this photo. OPPO R15 makes the whole picture bright, but the signboard has not exploded.

it's already night, and the light is completely the light of the restaurant itself, which is slightly dim. OPPO R15 also recognizes that this is a food scene, but the overall optimization is still a bit not bright enough. How can I put it? The food < P > photos are not attractive, and need to be further optimized.

in terms of white balance control, OPPO R15 also tends to be more realistic and natural. As for noise control, it is also a remarkable optimization. Even in weak light environment, there will still be no obvious noise, which will affect the photo quality.

More beautiful, more ways to take portraits

In addition to improving the basic image quality, OPPO R15 has also made improvements for portraits. According to official data, OPPO R15 has increased the number of facial feature points from 254 to 296, which can identify facial features more accurately. At the same time, it also adds the function of pupil identification and beauty. Through the accurate identification of pupils, it adds beautiful pupil lines, pupil reflectors, tears and so on.

according to OPPO data,

on the basis of several dimensions of age, gender, skin color and skin texture, OPPO R15 has also added ethnic identification, and the five-dimensional theory can realize 8 million beauty schemes, which can intelligently match the most suitable beauty scheme for different face shapes of users around the world, and can simultaneously support personality beauty of up to four people on the same screen.

OPPO R15 also adds

facial lighting function and movie style mode to portrait mode. After combining dual-camera background blur, smart beauty +3D portrait lighting+movie style, users can also try portrait photos with unique styles, which makes people feel like taking photos is no longer a simple peeling beauty.

added a

sticker mode. Looking at the sky getting better, Xiaobian took some photos, and found that OPPO R15 did identify scenes with different light, and then optimized the photos according to the scene environment. For example, it was taken in the evening yesterday, and the overall environment was dark, so OPPO R15 would not forcibly improve the brightness of the photo. When the weather is fine, you will pay attention to the overexposure of the picture and let the details of the photo get the best performance.

In the actual game experience, OPPO R15 equipped with P61 also performed well. Driven by the game engine, there is no pressure on the glory of the king with full high image quality and high frame rate mode. Even when the team battle spell was flying full screen, there was no jam.
