It unpacks this gem, first thought ,, Wow is the large "This impression is strong but fail especially when switching from smaller smartphones such as the Samsung Galaxy S3 / 4 mainly former iPhone users.
People like me who have switched from a big smartphone (Note 2) should quickly get used to the size, however, because the 7 Mate only minimally wider and higher than the grade 2 and 3. FIG.
Why I am fascinated by this smartphone so?
+ Large display but in a relatively small housing (6-inch screen, front to display ratio 83% - current peak smartphones
+ Very high-quality processed aluminum housing, which does not bend to the iPhone 6 Plus
+ Despite compared to Samsung and LG touch 4 G3 much lower resolution is quite sharp display
+ Extremely long battery life
Test 1: Airplane mode enabled, wireless on, average usage at home, so WhatsApp, YouTube, Chrome, Instagram, etc:
10 hours Display On-Time
Test 2: blended (everyday) use about 50% Wi-Fi, 50% H + (unfortunately, I still will not have LTE contract but test
still supply later) use as in Test 1 = 6-8 hrs Display On-Time
+ Display can be calibrated according to your wishes (hot-cold)
+ Very liquid menu, quick opening of Apps
+ Fingerprint sensor very quickly and accurately (80-90% success in the first Entsperrversuch)
Unfortunately, there is for me also a few minor points
- No app list that represents a menu as for iOS - Some gefällts, I did not so frequently used apps but rather
"Hidden" in the menu
- Partial performance problems with specific games
Asphalt 8: game runs smoothly without problems
Ingress: Very fast start (almost twice as fast as in my Note 2)
Galaxy on Fire 2: extremely small menu thus little to no fun
Simpsons: Springfield: game runs but some very hakelig, rarely playable
simple games like Angry Birds but are not a problem.
- No personalization for fingerprints, which means:
- All fingerprints are registered in the settings can not only unlock the screen but at the same time all the apps that are locked with a fingerprint. Thus, it is not possible, some apps to make it available only at certain fingerprints.
Finally, a few brief comments on individual areas
Rear camera: Beautiful pictures, but sometimes blurred with slight movement
Front camera: Good pictures for a front camera
Charging connection: Has very stable due to the aluminum housing, thus I do not think that here as in my touch the socket
comes after less than 2 years broken
Performance: Have until now hardly Mikroruckler menu or WhatsApp / Facebook etc. can recognize
pre installed apps: some very useful apps like the Phone Manager offers convenient features such as garbage collectors, etc. Appsperre Dateienapp provides a safe to prevent unauthorized access to confidential documents / images / videos should be avoided.
Animations in standard apps like clock / phone: In my opinion, very nice created with attention to detail.
Style: Design I personally find very appealing, but it is for everyone to re-install designs available.
Conclusion:
For me, this smartphone is due to the reasons mentioned above and the favorable price compared definitely worth a recommendation.
All that fluctuate between the G3 and the Mate 7: Who can do without infrared, replaceable battery and the high-resolution display is in good hands at Mate 7.
Note 4: The same as in the G3 + S Pen functions
I hope I could help some in their decision.
