Huawei’s new flagshipP8It was officially launched at the end of last month. According to the data given by Huawei, this onecell phoneThe response after listing was still good, and it was sold out within a short time after opening and sales.HUAWEI P8I have also experienced this phone for a while. It has a beautiful appearance and good internal experience. The biggest thing I feel is the improvement in photography, especially night photography. And this time around it andiPhone 6To expand the comparison, let’s start with the appearance.

Compared to its predecessor, HuaweiP8The appearance material has obvious changes. The P7 uses metal and double-sided glass, whileP8It is an all-aluminum alloy integrated fuselage design.iPhone 6 is the same, and the screen size is increased to 4.Seven inches., and Huawei with a 5.2-inch 1080P displayP8Put together, iPhone 6 whole or slim on a circle.
HuaweiP8(Gold) Contrast with iPhone 6 front top
HuaweiP8The earpiece is slightly wider and longer than the iPhone 6, and its sensor and the 8 million pixel front lens on the right form a symmetrical design. iPhone 6 is to design the front lens on the left side of the earpiece, and the top of the earpiece is the sensor. Because this generation of iPhone is still equipped with a 1.20 million pixel front lens, so if you look closely, you will find that its front lens is better than Huawei’sP8Small.
iPhone 6 still uses Apple’s classic physical home button design, with iOS unique interaction pattern, excellent operation experience, round home button surrounded by a circle of metal edge, which is used sinceiPhone 5sFrom the press-type fingerprint recognition function installed, andP8Does not support fingerprint recognition. HuaweiP8Or the Android three King Kong design in the phone screen, these three buttons are Android 5.0 advocated by the minimalist design, the triangular return key on the left, the round Home key in the middle, the far right is the square multi-task menu key.
HuaweiP8The power button and volume button are designed on the right border of the mobile phone. The power button is intimately treated with anti-skid lines, and is made of the same metal material as the fuselage, which has good button feedback.Apple iPhone 6The power button is designed on the right side of the mobile phone, the volume button and the one-button switch sound button are designed on the left side of the mobile phone, and the button feedback is also good.

Slot comparison
The very business-minded Apple givesiPhoneThe design has always been that a single card does not support memory card expansion.iPhone 6No exception, it is estimated that the following 7 and 8 will not change much. (Just look at the new version of the MacBook, a mouth…) andHUAWEI P8It supports Unicom Mobile Dual SIM 4G, and also supports up to 128GB MicroSD card capacity expansion, which is also recognized by many people as Android.cell phonePlace. However, HuaweiP8The dual card and memory card expansion cannot have both, which means that if you insert a dual card, you can no longer insert a memory card, which is somewhat regrettable.
HuaweiP8Rear 13 million pixel camera, equipped withSonyThe new generation of IMX278 sensor has a larger sensor area than the P7 IMX214; in addition, it also uses the RGBW sensor for the first time, and also supports optical image stabilization. The iPhone 6 is still 8 million pixel rear lens, and there is no optical image stabilization support, especially this generation of iPhone is not very particular, the camera is raised. And Huawei, which is thinner than the 6.9mm body thickness iPhone 6P8(6.4Mm) is very flat.
Do you want a thin or raised camera? It is estimated that many people will choose such asP8That is, the body is thin, and the rear lens is not raised! Mobile phones with integrated metal bodies, mobile phone antennas are a big problem, so we see that the upper and lower ends of the iPhone 6 back seriously affect the appearance of "leucorrhea". HuaweiP8It can’t avoid this problem, but it uses a "black belt", so the back has the beauty of a panda, and its antenna is polished very flat.
HuaweiP8The iPhone data cable interface and external speaker are designed at the bottom of the mobile phone, which adopts a neat symmetrical design. However, iPhone 6 also designed the 3.5mm earphone interface to the bottom of the mobile phone, and HuaweiP8It is on the top of the phone.
In general, these two products have exquisite shape design, the use of 2.5D curved screen iPhone 6 start round, feel comparedHUAWEI P6The square shape design is better. Of course, this does not mean thatP8It just hurts my hand, and it doesn’t feel good. In factP8The polishing of the details is also relatively fine, but it is possibleP8It is more suitable for men, while iPhone 6 is suitable for both men and women.
Open and seal the fate of Android and iOS
Google’s Android system and Apple’s iOS are two very different platforms, not only reflected in an open and a closed, but also in many interaction patterns.HUAWEI P8It uses Huawei EMUI 3.1, which is deeply customized based on the Android 5.0 operating system, andiPhone 6It is iOS 8 interface.
Let’s start with Huawei.P8EMUI 3.1 has been further upgraded on the previous 3.0 version. The overall interface has not changed much, but several more practical functions have been added, such as knuckle screenshots. It cancels the 2-level interface like the current mainstream form in China, and finds applications by swiping left and right. And the Yuedao application on the leftmost screen of the desktop helps users quickly provide all kinds of information they are interested in, and the experience is good.
Drop-down menu and multitasking background
For ordinary users, Android system compared to iOS the most attractive may be that you can change the theme (iOS need to jailbreak), especially domesticcell phoneWe have done even better in this regard, providing users with a wealth of online resources, including free and paid ones, from lock screen styles to lock screenswallpaperWait, you can do it yourselfdownloadResources for DIY, whileiPhoneThere are many limitations.
HuaweiP8It also includes Keyword Spotting and a smart profile that can act as a travel assistant. In addition to this, it also adds some special gesture operation experiences: knuckle screenshots, and one-handed mode.
Let’s talk about the one-handed mode first. This mode is very simple to switch. Just swipe horizontally on the virtual button bar at the bottom, you can quickly switch to the one-handed mode, and then swipe in the opposite direction to switch back to the full screen. Whether it is left-handed or right-handed, you can easily switch back and forth.
Various gesture controls and knuckle screenshots
Knuckle screenshots are more interesting, HuaweiP8You can identify the knuckles, and you can easily take a screenshot of part of the screen by circling on the screen. After that, you can adjust the size of the screenshot area arbitrarily, which is different from the traditional way of taking full-screen screenshots such as power supply + Home button, which is very innovative. And it is said that Huawei will develop more functions for the knuckles in the future.
The features mentioned above are unlikely to be seen on iPhone in the short term, after all, even support for third partiesinput methodAlso in this editioniOS systemIn order to achieve, that is to say, if you are an Android user to iOS user, you need to get used to and adapt to a lot. Because I have seen with my own eyes that my friends have just changed to the first day of iPhone 6. The various operations are not used to it. Of course, if you are an old iOS user like me, you will think that this closed operating system is actually very useful.
iOS 8 Support for third-party input methods
The new version of the iOS 8 compared with the previous generation also has a lot of improvements, such as iMessage can send pictures and voice, more like a no MomentsWeChatBut in China, which is almost ruled by WeChat, it is vulgar to say "but this is useless". Because the current social apps are so developed, ordinary users rarely even send text messages, let alone iMessage, but it is good to have changes.
Now people are paying more and more attention to sports health, iOS 8 is also a timely launch of health applications, and Apple later launched Apple Watch. If you are a person who likes sports, even if you don’t buy Apple Watch, it is also good to match another wearable device that supports iOS.
In order to optimize the one-handed operation experience, iPhone 6 support gently double touch the Home button twice, and the screen display is reduced by half to facilitate the operation of users with small hands.4.7 inchesiPhone 6 may not be significant, but5.5 inchesofiPhone 6 PlusStill usable.
In addition to the above-mentioned functions, iOS 8 also connects the iPad with the Mac, allowing mobile phones, tablets and computers to connect. This function called Handoff is also relatively tasteless in China, because it means that it is not enough for you to sell a "kidney". Besides, from my previous experience of this function, its convenience is that you can continue to send unfinished emails on the Mac or continue to watch videos when you squat on the toilet, but its practical use is not as convenient as the AirDrop sharing function.
Can not complain iOS, in fact, the long-term fluency of this system is stronger than the Android system, and it does not eat configuration, iPhone now 1GB random access memory still runs smoothly, and Google’s Android currently 3GB has become the flagship standard.
HuaweiP8The two different platforms that iPhone 6 belong to are very different, but to be honest, the two products are not very comparable, because the current domestic mobile phones have many unique optimizations for the Android system. EMUI’s development in recent years is good, the interface is more refreshing, and there are more and more practical functions, such as yellow pages, family care, gesture operation, etc. The two systems are not the best or the worst, and the experience has its own advantages and disadvantages. See which one you prefer.
Take pictures HUAWEI P8Imaging is better and more fun
In terms of photography, it is actually this generationHUAWEI P7The biggest improvement, its 13 million pixel camera usesSonyThe new generation IMX278 sensor also uses the RGBW sensor for the first time, which is stronger in light input than the current mainstream RGBG sensor. In addition, it is also equipped with an independent ISP and has a large aperture of F/2.0. Support time-lapse photography, streamer shutter and other creative shooting.

whileiPhone 6Or 8 million pixel iSight lens, single pixel size 1.5 microns, F/2.2 aperture, mixed infrared filter, sapphire glass mirror. The photo mode is still simple Apple style, adding time-lapse photography, slow video and other shooting. For details, we can take a look at these twocell phoneThe actual photo sample.

For the daytime part of the sample, the difference between the two products is not too obvious, only the indoor part, HuaweiP8The glare control is better, and the light basically does not overflow. And we can see Huawei in this set of samples of goldfish.P8The color is stronger, the details are more in place, and the whole is slightly better than iPhone 6.
Next, let’s take a look at the night part.

Through these three sets of samples should be able to clearly see the difference between the two mobile phone night shot. iPhone 6 night shot is good, but HuaweiP8Better, first of all, the overall picture is brighter than iPhone 6, and secondly, its glare control is better than iPhone 6, HuaweiP8The edge image quality and noise control are also good, for a mobile phone, this performance is enough to praise.
No points, the apple is still the same apple
According to the previous comparison evaluation, we will compare the scoring results of the two products in the performance test section, butHUAWEI P8andiPhone 6Belonging to two different platforms, the results are not comparable. and we knowiPhoneIt doesn’t depend on the hardware configuration itself, so this part is skipped.
I can give you a brief introduction to Huawei.P8And the processor carried by the iPhone.P8The eight-core HiSilicon Kirin 935 uses four 2.2GHz A53 cores + four 1.5GHz A53 cores, big. LITTLE large and small core design. Unlike ARM Cortex-A53, which cannot run on high frequency, Huawei solved this problem and independently developed Library on the basis of Cortex-A53, forming a new A53 architecture, which enables the processor to run stably on 2.0GHz. At the same time, the new A53 core has become the main big core.
Huawei chose such an A53 design to better balance power consumption and performance, which not only improves the performance of the large core, but also controls the power consumption within an acceptable range. At the same time, in the Kirin 935 chip, Huawei also added a coprocessor, which is based on the ARM TrustZone hardware security technology implementation, with Huawei’s EMUI 3.1 operating system, built-in encryption algorithm, support for secure boot, can effectively protect user information and payment security. This function is similar to Huawei’s previousMate 7The coprocessor of the fingerprint recognition technology is the same.
iPhone 6 A8 chip (from Apple’s official website)
iPhone 6 uses a new A8 processor + M8 coprocessor combination, the A8 chip is 13% smaller and 25% faster than the A7, which uses 2 billiontransistor(Compared to the A7 1 billion doubled), 20 nm process (A7 is 28 nm), graphics processing unit performance improved by 50%. M8 motion coprocessor, in addition to collecting information from gyroscopes, accelerometers, direction sensors, etc., will also collect information from the newly added air pressure sensor.
Evaluation summary:
Apple is still the apple, iPhone 6 still the same, a year to sharpen a sword, its overall performance is still in the current intelligentcell phoneAnd Huawei is no longer that Huawei, from P6 to nowP8Although the incubation cycle of the product was not as long as that of Apple, it was better than the next generation, and the next generation made great progress. Especially this generationP8EMUI 3.1 also adds Huawei’s own innovative features on the basis of the native Android 5.0 operating system. With the rise of domestic mobile phones, it is impossible not to like them.
