Chapter 1377 Explosion (4k)
The Zhurong chip, which is made with the Bingxin 8.8nm process and is equipped in Yike Mars 16, has been the subject of various discussions and speculations in just two days.
However, when it was first presented to a global audience in the form of data, its power was still shocking.
Admittedly, multi-core performance is only one dimension of chip performance, but Zhurong's performance, which surpasses Qualcomm's flagship Snapdragon by 27.8% and Apple's A8 chip by 70%, is still too speechless!
Is this really a flagship phone released in the same year?
There won't be any problem with the test...
Feeling the shock of his peers, part-time review blogger Roma quickly repeated the operation and tested Zhurong's multi-core performance again.
Sure enough! Wrong!
It’s not 5000 which is close to 4986 at all!
This time it became 5013!
A8是2打头的2927，骁龙是3打头的3899……
Just now, Zhu Rong was still in the 4th place. After testing again, it successfully fluctuated to the 5th place...
It’s so good, so good that I don’t know what to say.
Rohm confirmed the data for the second time, calmed down, and gave his own evaluation: "The Zhurong chip, which is one generation ahead in process technology, has obvious advantages. This, this..."
"Both the A8 and Snapdragon 810 are very powerful chips, but there is a saying about camera products: 'a bigger sensor is more powerful', which means that a larger sensor can bring more powerful shooting effects."
"Similarly, when Mr. Fang mentioned Zhurong's 16nm process at the press conference, the competition was over. Zhurong will definitely be better than A8 and Snapdragon 810."
"What we are doing now is to see how much stronger it is!"
"Whether it is the strong single-core performance of A8 or the strong multi-core performance of Snapdragon 810, they have now been surpassed by Zhurong, which will undoubtedly bring a better experience to users."
"Mr. Fang said that the price will not increase with the increase in quantity, and the price is basically the same. Yike's chip has such performance. As a technology and digital enthusiast, it is difficult for me to convince myself not to buy it."
Rohm gave his own insights on the test data in two dimensions.
After he said this, he continued to use GFBench to test the third dimension data of the three chips, that is, the GPU performance of the three mobile phones, and this time Snapdragon finally made a comeback.
Snapdragon 810 integrates Adreno 430, while Vulcan and A8 both use ARM's Mali-T760 MP8. The former is slightly stronger in this regard, although only slightly stronger, but it is much better than the backwardness of the former.
Rohm showed GFBench data on four angles of the GPU, and held back what he wanted to say. The Snapdragon 810 is indeed good in this regard, but I don’t know if this is a factor in its heating.
He was just about to move on to the next test when a reporter next to him suddenly said, "I heard that the Geshi tablet that Yike will release at its spring conference next year will use its own GPU."
Ever since Yike's delayed launch of the Galaxy Note 2 tablet won back some consumers' hearts, this product line has been on the right track.
According to the company's usual practice, the tablet chips released at the spring conference will be roughly the same as the mobile phone chips released in the fall, except for the different main frequency limits. However, the situation this year is special, and next year's tablet will undoubtedly use this Snapdragon.
When Roma heard this, he immediately turned around and asked, "Really? Is it true? Where did the news come from?"
All those present were media reporters. Although they were immersed in the mobile phone review activities, they had not forgotten their duties.
"I don't know if it's true or not, but the news comes from Yike Silicon Valley Center." The reporter said, "Even if it's not used next spring, it will definitely be used next fall. Yike will obviously not stop in chip design."
Yike’s investment and layout in chip design are becoming more and more clear, including Zhurong, Jiuzhang and baseband chips... There is no reason to give up GPU.
Rom couldn't help but nodded and said to the camera: "We can look forward to Yike's performance in GPU next year. Walker just mentioned Yike's Geshi tablet next spring. In fact, the chip we have is still not outdated when used in next year's flagship mobile phone."
"IceCore International's 16nm is the first to introduce FinFET. Intel plans to launch processors at the beginning of next year, while Taiwan will launch them in the second quarter. In the second half of next year, 16nm will still be the world's first-line process, and IceCore International is likely to optimize FinFET."
"Taichi, the leading wafer manufacturing company, has been very good at using advanced technology to suppress its competitors. Bingxin International has obtained the world's first process technology this time, and it can definitely learn from Taiji's practices in this regard."
"Yike has not only established its position as the most powerful mobile phone this year, but also ensured its leading position in the next few years."
Roma commented on and extended the new information, and his performance made many guests on the TV stations broadcasting the news nod in agreement, saying that there was nothing wrong with what he said.
"We have measured the scores of single-core, multi-core and GPU. Now we will use the software to run an overall score for your reference."
Roma knew that the performance was already obvious, but he still had to complete this step thoroughly.
Because of the previous preparation, everyone has expectations for the final overall score.
Mars is undoubtedly in the lead with a score of 70138, while iPhone and Trump are 58194 and 56690.
"No problem, because Zhurong has four cores, A4 has two cores, and Snapdragon 8 has eight cores. This total score is not particularly accurate, but Zhurong has at least a 810% performance lead, which is certain."
"Why did Yike's Mars 8.8 achieve such a big sensation? Its core processor is the most important factor."
"It's not that Snapdragon and A8 are not powerful enough. They are already the benchmarks for high-end mobile phone chips. And it is precisely with this benchmark as a benchmark that the Zhurong chip still has breakthroughs. This is what shocked us the most!"
"We didn't use products from mobile phone manufacturers such as Motorola, HTC, BlackBerry, and Sony Ericsson to test, but directly used Samsung and Apple. This is already a strict comparison."
"Compared like this, Zhu Rong's performance is simply abnormal!"
"I can only give my personal conclusion that Yike Mars 8.8 is the most worthwhile mobile phone product to buy from this year to the first half of next year!"
"This is before I try out other functions. As we all know, Yike has always been one of the top three in mobile phone tuning."
Rohm gave a closing remark for the chip test, completing a segment that attracted great attention from many TV stations.
When he started testing other aspects of the three flagship phones, many TV stations ended their broadcasts and evaluated the performance of the Zhurong chip.
This is the world's first-hand information, enough to stir up more public opinion.
Rohm didn't care about these and just focused on completing the world's first test.
Just as he expected, Yike's overall polishing of the phone this year is still above the standard, whether it is the upgrade of fingerprint recognition, the use of face recognition, or the effect of 4K shooting and the continuation of the image level...
These are Yi Ke’s strengths!
"Hey, the world's best phone, I want to make it clear that I did this review under the witness of many colleagues in the same field. I did not receive any fees from Yike Company, so my recommendation is sincere. If you want to buy it, buy it!"
"OMG, I really can't find a reason to recommend other competing products!"
“I would like to call Mr. Fang the ancient Greek god of smartphones!”
Rohm completed the actual testing experience of a series of mobile phones, and finally asked two colleagues to open mobile games on three mobile phones at the same time. Without a doubt, Mars was loaded first, and Trump and iPhone were similar.
"Our review is only rough here, you can place your order now."
"This last test is about heat dissipation, which may take some time to show up. I will update the results on my Twitter."
“Although the results haven’t come out yet, I can predict it.”
Rom pointed to Mars in the middle and said, "Since Yike's chip uses a more sophisticated manufacturing process, it will inevitably reduce the size of the components, which will also create more space inside the phone."
"On the one hand, mobile phone manufacturers want to bring us the best performance, and on the other hand, they also have to consider the overall heat dissipation, so every bit of space inside is extremely valuable."
"Yike's Mars 8.8 has a better heat dissipation foundation."
“Thank you all for watching and broadcasting.”
"This is Roma from Bloomberg."
When Roma said this, he picked up the live camera and filmed his colleagues who were witnessing the evaluation nearby. This was both a sign of respect and a proof that this evaluation was absolutely fair and just.
However, the live camera was filming the media reporters leaving the scene when suddenly a surprised voice-over was heard.
"Why is Trump so hot now?"
The live broadcast screen shook for a moment, but still did not cut to Trump. Rom only coughed, followed by the word "goodbye" and then the screen went black.
The global first test of Yike Mars 8.8 left people wanting more. Even after the YouTube live broadcast ended, many viewers were still discussing it.
——The king of machines!
——"Why is Trump so popular now?"
——OMG, buy it, buy it, just buy it!
——Mr. Fang, the ancient Greek god in charge of smartphones!
Similarly, many people in the Jianzhong community were watching and discussing the live review, and were sincerely shocked and satisfied with Yike’s global product launch.
——Hey, this is what they call a high-level manufacturing process, which has no limit!
——A man gallops away from us and everyone laughs. Everyone knows it is Zhurong coming!
——Brick flying with great force!
——Master, master, master even more master!
——Awesome pen!
The review by the Bloomberg reporter directly further confirmed the top level of Yike Mars 8.8, and all of Yike’s cooperation channels had already exploded before he conducted the review.
It can even be said that before the press conference was over, when Fang Zhuo announced Zhurong's process technology level, some sensitive partners and channel dealers had already called to inquire about the supply situation.
As Yike's long-standing operator partner in China, China Unicom was very calm at first. Isn't this normal given the booming sales prospects of Yike's products?
What's so surprising?
Besides, no matter how popular Yi Ke is, we have to keep a place for the old friends.
When the press conference ended late at night, China Unicom looked at the completely different enthusiasm this year and suddenly felt a little worried. It shouldn’t be that serious, right? They would at least guarantee their own supply...
Huo Kaixiang, the director who has always been in charge of Yike's product procurement, couldn't help but call Yike and received a piece of news that made him extremely uncomfortable and uneasy.
"Alas, Mr. Huo, I can't give you accurate information right now. Our country is one of the first countries to launch the product, but because it's a bit late this year, it's Black Friday and Christmas overseas, so we have to seize this peak season."
Huo Kaixiang immediately said after hearing this: "Don't play it safe. I've already started asking about user reservations here. Also, what's going on with China Mobile and China Telecom? I heard that their trucks are parked directly in front of the factory gate!!"
Unlike China Unicom's calmness, people from China Mobile and China Telecom have already taken action overnight.
Huo Kaixiang listened to the hesitating voice on the other end of the phone and knew that the news coming from the front line was probably true!
Dry!
Huo Kaixiang was annoyed. Thinking about the sales prospects of Yike's mobile phone and the 3G and 4G users that Yike's Mars series had brought to China Unicom in the past, he was no longer careless and directly called his boss Wu Yunjun.
Wu Yunjun is the vice president of China Unicom and an old friend of Fang Zhuo. He also approved China Unicom's investment in YiXin, provided great resource cooperation, and strongly supported the development of mobile Internet instant messaging such as YiXin.
He called Mr. Fang on the morning of the 16th. He first congratulated Yike Mars on its popularity, and then talked about China Unicom's supply guarantee.
"I'm not really clear about the arrangements on the supply chain side, Mr. Wu. Let me ask Mr. Li over there to take a look at the situation and have him liaise with Mr. Huo." Fang Zhuo was very happy to receive the call.
Mr. Wu is an old friend and a powerful person. How could he not even give him this little face?
Wu Yunjun was very satisfied.
However, just half a day later, he saw Huo Kaixiang coming over hurriedly to report in person that he was dissatisfied with the supply arrangement of Yike Li Songqing. One of the important reasons was that Bingxin International's process mass production time was too close, and no matter how much effort was put into it, it would still be tight.
What's more, Yike sells products all over the world, and this year it has divided countries and regions into the first, second and third batches.
"Mr. Wu, Li Songqing said that operators in the United States and Europe have even begun to adjust their cooperation ratios. Is this...are they trying to deceive us?" Huo Kaixiang mentioned a detail of the conversation.
The cooperation between operators in the United States and Europe and Yike is a multi-year contract. Yike has to share the revenue of the 199/299 packages there, and China Unicom has always known this.
But isn’t it too magical to say that Yike Mars 8.8 directly shook up the profit sharing ratio?
Wu Yunjun pondered for a moment and felt that he shouldn't lie to himself about such a thing.
"How about we promote it more on iPhone?" Huo Kaixiang suggested, and then said, "iPhone also has a gold color this year."
Wu Yunjun said angrily, "What a bad idea! What a bullshit gold! How can your taste be so vulgar! I'll call Fang Zhuo. I don't believe it. If it doesn't work, I'll fly to Shencheng to find him!"
Yike's world-leading product will bring about extremely huge influence. Supply is still a small matter. Don't let China Mobile and China Telecom mess up the cooperation!
Wu Yunjun adjusted his mood before calling Mr. Fang for the second time.
After listening to what Mr. Wu said about the supply problem, Fang Zhuo thought for a moment and said with a smile, "The supply is indeed tight this year. How about this, Mr. Wu, I'll ask Mr. Li to make some arrangements later. No matter how much, we can squeeze it in. Mr. Wu, I'll forgive us. In addition, we have a new color this year, which everyone calls Tuhao Gold. We will also provide some specifically for China Unicom."
Wu Yunjun was overjoyed when he heard this: "Okay, Mr. Fang, I understand, I understand. Yike's performance this year is really encouraging! Hey, gold is good, gold is good, rich gold, Yike is showing its kingly style, and it has fun with its users!"
Huo Kaixiang, who was listening to the conversation between his boss and Mr. Fang, was dumbfounded. Mr. Wu, you, you...where is your vulgar aesthetic just now...
Now this is the kingly style, having fun with users? !
