Luxurious texture of first-layer calfskin

In 2013, the first generation of Meitu mobile phone was officially released. At the end of 2018, Meitu Mobile announced the official release of its last self-developed mobile phone product, Meitu V7. It took 5 years for Meitu to become popular among consumers. Meitu V7 is the last fully independently developed product of Meitu mobile phones, and coupled with its V series name, it is naturally more meaningful. Today we will take a look at this last Meitu self-developed mobile phone. Can Meitu V7 draw a perfect comma for Meitu mobile phones

Hexagonal edge design + top-notch leather Materials are also the design essence of the previous V series, and Meitu V7 also continues this feature very well, making V7 exude a feeling of art as a mobile phone product. Meitu V7 uses a 6.21-inch 18.7:9 ratio AMOLED screen on the front. Strictly speaking, Meitu V7 should be considered a notch design. However, due to the wider borders on the upper and lower sides, the design effect of the notch part is far inferior. Other notch screen products are intuitive, and this may also be the biggest shortcoming of the front of Meitu V7.

And this shortcoming can also be said to be a choice of design compromise. First of all, the design of the upper part. The most eye-catching ones are the three eye-catching cameras. This is also the front camera in the current mobile phone field. One product with the most. At the same time, as a Meitu phone that has always focused on front-facing selfie effects, the front camera configuration of the V7 is comparable to or even surpasses the rear camera configurations of many flagship products. There are two fill lights placed on both sides of the camera. The symmetrical arrangement can also provide even fill light for the face in low light environments.

At the bottom of Meitu V7, there is a Home button also designed in a hexagonal shape, which supports tapping to return and pressing again to return to the desktop. On both sides of the Home button, there are secretly arranged smart flowing light breathing lights from thick to fine, which will emit different light effects when charging and when there are notification messages.

Turn to the back of the phone, and the most obvious feeling is the difference in touch between the leather texture and the glass and metal materials on the market. The back of Meitu V7 uses first-layer calfskin as the main material. The white leather on the top and the orange-red material of the red glow create a very obvious color impact contrast. At the same time, on the orange leather, Meitu has designed it with a dot matrix hollow, revealing the white microfiber lining at the bottom, which brings out the sense of layering.

At the same time, in order to enhance the sense of quality, the leather on the back is also inlaid with four 18K gold-plated rivets, which elevates it to the quality of a work of art. In the rear camera area, Meitu V7 adopts the same hexagonal design language as the front Home button. The orange V-shaped metal plate divides the camera part very well. At the edge of the lower part, Meitu V7 Adopting the design pattern of Paris hobnail pattern, the diamond-shaped three-dimensional protrusions will show different reflective effects under different light angles, giving a sudden sense of quality.

As for the edge buttons of Meitu V7, the left side is the volume button, the upper right side is the power button, and the position below the power button is the camera button. Since the overall design of Meitu V7 is relatively slender, the overall button position is relatively lower, which is relatively easy to operate for general holding.

Taken together, Meitu V7 exudes the texture of a work of art, and the completely symmetrical design language also runs through the entire machine, plus the touch of first-layer calfskin and orange edge chamfers for reflection. It all reflects Meitu’s dedication to the V series. Apart from the subjective judgment of appearance, the overall quality and refinement of Meitu V7 are definitely among the best in the current mobile phone market.

A camera that meets all your needs

Meitu V7 is the world’s first mobile phone product equipped with three cameras on the front. The three camera modules are: 12-megapixel IMX363 ( Night shooting lens); 20-megapixel IMX350 (ultra-clear lens) and 8-megapixel IMX355 (blurred lens). This is also the most powerful CMOS module commercially produced by Sony at present. The three cameras also take care of all aspects of photography scenes.

In addition to the flagship effects in terms of hardware, Meitu V7 has also been improved in terms of software. In addition to improvements in hardware, the software algorithm has also been upgraded, adding some new beauty features. options. For example, unlike previous Meitu phones, Meitu V7 has added beauty options for hairline, nasolabial folds, nasolabial folds, and hair smoothness. Together with the previous beauty options, it has almost covered everyone. All parts of the face.

So in terms of the final effect, the actual effect of Meitu V7 is still very worthy of recognition. For me, a person who has not taken a selfie for eight hundred years, I spent almost the entire afternoon studying how to take myself. The photos are beautiful, and such magic is definitely something that other mobile phones cannot match. The AI ??night shot beauty function shows fair skin effects by intelligently brightening people's faces in low-light environments. According to actual measurements, the difference before and after it is turned on is relatively obvious.

As the main user group of Meitu mobile phones, Meitu can be said to have the best control over young female users. Extremely delicate, in addition to pursuing their own exquisite beauty, they also pursue the exquisiteness of life, and the most intuitive expression is to take pictures of delicious food, so Meitu V7 has a new food camera built into it.

Different filter modes for different ingredients

The food camera will enhance and supplement the color of the detected food and blur the background to a certain extent to highlight the main body of the food. In addition, a certain amount of small special effects and star flashing effects will be performed based on the type of food detected. The most thoughtful thing is that there are stickers with different font effects in the food mode, and users can change the position and text content. The food photos taken under this effect require almost no other modifications, and you can get countless likes in the circle of friends with just one shot.

In terms of rear lenses, Meitu V7 is equipped with a 12-megapixel IMX363 lens and an 8-megapixel IMX355 lens, which are both absolutely mainstream in the industry in terms of data. But to be honest, the imaging effects of Meitu mobile phones are not strictly speaking at the top level in the industry, but fortunately, the overall color effect is more pleasing to the eye, so it is not a problem at all for ordinary girls. However, it is worth mentioning in terms of night scenes. Meitu V7 adds a super night scene mode, which uses multiple continuous shooting synthesis technology to control exposure and details at night, making the night photos more pure and transparent.

Super night scene mode - left: not turned on/right: turned on

After actual testing, the difference between Meitu V7 before and after turning on super night scene mode is quite obvious. First of all, the overall picture The exposure control is more appropriate, and the details in the dark areas are more obvious, so the overall picture looks very pure and the look and feel is significantly improved.

Hardware that will no longer hold you back

After talking about the appearance and camera, let’s take a look at the hardware of Meitu V7. As Meitu’s top flagship series, Snapdragon 845 naturally It is a must-have standard configuration of Meitu V7. In addition, it also has 8GB RAM and 128GB ROM. I believe that such a flagship configuration can definitely meet the hardware performance needs of all users. At the same time, I also believe that most of the users of Meitu mobile phones are game enthusiasts, so let’s test it today to see if Meitu V7 can handle the two most popular mainstream games at the moment.

After actual testing, the performance of Meitu V7 in the two games "Honor of Kings" and "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Stimulating Battlefield" is still satisfactory. First of all, after the updated version of "Honor of Kings", it is more comprehensive. The performance requirements are even more obvious. The Meitu V7 powered by Snapdragon 845 has a very stable frame rate whether it is a solo or a comprehensive team battle. "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", as a game with extremely strong performance requirements, also fell under the Snapdragon 845. There is no frame drop and the operation is smooth. There will be no skipping when moving the sight, which proves that The overall quality of the screen is pretty good.

In terms of power consumption, Meitu V7 consumes 13% and 17% of the power after running two games for 30 minutes respectively. In terms of heat generation, "PUBG: Stimulating Battlefield" will be slightly more obvious, but due to Due to the cortex on the back, the hand perception is not that obvious. Overall, it still achieves the performance that a flagship device should have.

In terms of charging, Meitu V7 comes standard with an MTcharge charger, and the maximum charging power can reach 18W. According to actual measurements, MTcharge can charge Meitu V7 to 15% in ten minutes and 50% in half an hour. The charging speed is definitely the current mainstream industry fast charging level. However, MTcharge must use the standard charging set before it can be triggered, and you still need to pay attention during use.

As the last pure Meitu mobile phone, the overall product strength of Meitu V7 is still very strong. First of all, the top-grain leather material and absolutely symmetrical design concept in terms of appearance have won the favor of many users. In addition, after adding rivets and Paris nail patterns, which are more popular fashion elements among women, the Meitu V7’s competitive price has been It has skyrocketed, and almost all the girls who have seen Meitu V7 can’t put it down.

As for the camera that’s good at it, the world’s first three-camera front camera and multiple types and levels of Selfie beauty adjustment effects, rear super night scene, gourmet mode and other functions are also accurate for women’s daily photography needs. The product of insight, it turns out that the emergence of these functions has indeed improved the happiness of female users in daily use.

The absolutely powerful performance of the hardware also meets the needs of daily games. Whether it is "Honor of Kings" or "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Stimulating the Battlefield", it can handle games perfectly, and daily use is not a problem at all. However, Meitu V7 is not perfect. First of all, compared with current products of the same level, you can feel the obvious weight after getting started, which will be a big challenge for long-term handholding. However, as the last product of Meitu, Meitu V7 is priced at 4,799 yuan and is still worth buying, especially for female users. It is definitely not to be missed.
