As a hand-to-hand man, various projectors that frequently appeared in public surveys this year successfully planted a grassland in my heart... After all the failed applications for all measurement applications have been failed, the parameters of various projectors have been carefully studied. , Carefully read the test reports of all of you, resolutely decided to hand pole meters Z4X, buy buy buy! Then the family leader rejected my purchase application and I will not buy it! ! ! Then...there wasn’t any of them, who thought that the leaders of the family before the Mid-Autumn Festival just planned to co-operate with others to do an early childhood training and needed projections to do the demonstration. Under my strong recommendation, the leadership finally passed the approval. Wow, oh, I'm coming!
Almost a dozen years ago, I had a wish. In the future, my home must have a projector so that I can watch a movie in bed (so far, my lazy cancer is probably late in the late stages). In recent years, micro-investment has become increasingly hot and prices have fallen to an acceptable level, so the threshold for entry for projection has been much lower. However, the previous micro-projection has always been criticized because of the brightness problem, and the brand is cluttered. The traditional big brands hold a dispensable attitude toward this market, and people have never dared to dare to buy. Since last year, emerging brands such as Kamiyama and nuts have suddenly become powerful. With the advantage of intelligence, micro-projections have begun to disrupt the entire projection market. This type of product is truly into the eyes of people. Last year, I paid attention to the Z3S. As my family’s leadership did not approve it, my hand was retained until now. This year, after receiving a strategic investment of 300 million yuan from Mango Media, Zami Rice has continuously launched three new products, Z4X, Z4AIR and Mango. Among them, Z4AIR is light and portable, and Mango's main personality is fashionable. Z4X is the real high-performance, high-parameter flagship product. For me who is not pursuing portable, Z4X is certainly the first choice!
Of course, the first choice of the purchase channel dog East, but the dog east out of stock ... very meters mall goods, but the dog East has coupons, there are white bars ah! Resolutely wait for the dogs to go on the goods, pay attention every day, and finally received a delivery reminder, apart from anything else, direct orders, with 20 coupons, 2679 hand, and then use the white bar interest-free 12 period, can lick wool absolutely Can't keep it!
Dog East's logistics speed is still reliable, 2 days of arrival, received after the discovery of Dog East, there is also before the 30th praise 3D glasses activities worth 198 baht! This is definitely a lot of wool, ah, immediately photographed, drying singles, praise, screenshots, get ready after the rest of the United States zizi 3D glasses ... ... nothing to brush the Dog East page, suddenly found that during the National Day, the mobile phone directly Price 2679, also sent 3D glasses, my blood! !
The dog's price cuts made me unbalanced again, so I decided to come here and get a little money to make up for my wounded soul! Aunt you do not give! give or not!
First, packing out of the boxThe first is the big box of the dog east. Although it is the logistics of the dog east, but the outer box is still a box of meters, is it a custom box?
Open the outer box, custom tight bubble bags wrapped Z4X pole, this package is really very strong, and not the dog style, very much suspect that this is their own packaging material. This part forgot to take pictures, look directly at the inner box.
Pure white background, a large round front, with the box with a little bit of a rounded place meaning, but with the fuselage design is very good. On the side is the LOGO of XGIMI and the mango LOGO on the corner. The overall feeling is very elegant.
The back of the black background, printed a simple message, the most important partner is: Harman / kardon, mango tv and Baidu music.
When I opened the box, the Z4X projector appeared. This appearance is my favorite, like a vinyl record player. It is both fashionable and retro, and I have to say that the designer of the meter really does.
First take out the machine and see something else. The following is a black manual with some corresponding instructions printed on both sides. This design is the first time I have seen it. The visual impact of black paper is very strong and the design is also very thoughtful.
Below the manual are several large boxes, each containing a power cord, power adapter and remote control, and adapter. In other words, the adapter rack is not available at the time of crowdfunding. Later, it should be increased by the majority of consumers. After all, there is no tripod mounting hole at the bottom or it is inconvenient.
All the accessories come with a big photo, and the lower right hand corner is a gifted mango VIP prepaid card worth 720 yuan.
summary:
From the packaging design point of view, very meters on this product is really used the heart, whether it is a luxury carton packaging, a unique manual design, or should be required to increase the adapter, all reflect the pole meter on this product The importance of not losing the name of the flagship.
Second, the designThis section will take a look at the Z4X design. At first glance, it looks like a vinyl record player. My family leader has a special liking for vinyl phonograph. This is a factor that she agreed to buy this.
The front lens cover is designed for the slide cover, the lens cover is slid open, and the machine automatically starts up. This small detail does a good job.
In addition to the front of the lens, the speakers are also designed on the front. For traditional projection, the speakers are always optional. However, the position of the pole meter is no screen TV, then the speaker is essential, and the sound quality is also an important parameter. The Z4X speaker is designed for Harman/kardon, and the actual effect is absolutely first class in the projection!
The back is the interface part, including the cable interface, power cable interface, USB2.0 and 3.0 each, two HDMI inputs, one AV input, one headphone output, and one Reset button. The entire interface design is very comprehensive, two HDMI and one AV enough to meet the conventional input environment, two USB interface is more effective expansion of storage, but there is no TF card slot is a pity.
Next to the interface is a neat heat sink. For projectors such as large fans, heat dissipation is really important. The Z4X places the heat dissipation behind the fuselage, effectively avoiding the impact of side winds on users.
The bottom is the only failure of this machine, there is no tripod interface design, the main reason is that the middle of the black part can be removed directly on the design of the tripod interface strength is certainly not enough, so the official plan is to use the adapter, but only It was pushed forward by the voice of crowdfunded users. Be beaten...
Unscrew three manual screws, you can open the back cover, the internal actually built a hard disk drive, you can put 2.5-inch hard drive, use to do Thunder download or make a video warehouse is a good choice. But there is a problem...
The problem came, this hard disk drive can only be placed in 7mm hard drive, and most of the notebook hard drives will be shielded. There is also an official explanation: to avoid the impact of the vibration of the horn on the service life of the mechanical hard disk, please put it into the SSD... This is still very vomiting blood, after all, the price of the SSD is still high, then there is a ball for this hard disk drive. ! It's better to replace the battery with a spare one!
Put on the lid and put on the adapter. This is probably the way it looks like. Now there is no problem reloading the tripod.
Let's take a look at the design of the accessories. The power adapter is similar to the power adapter commonly used in notebooks. The volume is relatively large. Delta's OEM work is not bad.
The remote control is similar to the regular Android box and smart battery, but it is not big in size, but the button feels good, soft and flexible. Compared to the conventional remote control, there are several special keys above, which are actually used to adjust the focus. The Z4X uses electric focusing, which is really much stronger than manual.
summary:
In fact, from the appearance of this year's three models, the Z4X is also the most beautiful I personally think. Air and Xiaoyan are more inclined to be portable, and their design is far less impressive than the Z4X's vinyl record player. Especially when the power is turned on, a touch of red on the vinyl record player is almost blinding. As a powerful projector, there is such a beautiful appearance, it really reminds me of the words of the old Lo saying: beautiful unlike powerful!
The UI of the Z4X is based on the Android 4.3 version customized GMUI, similar to other TV classes, it uses Metro-like dynamic tile style is more suitable for large screens, the Internet TV platform prompted to access the upper left corner is mango tv .
Among them are four major sections, film and television, music, and game applications. The main content of the television section is the content of the mango tv, and the music section is cooperating with Baidu music and the resources are fairly abundant. There are no high-quality applications for games and apps because of well-known reasons. Which WPS should be regarded as one of the best applications, my family leader is directed at it, do not have to carry a computer, as long as the U disk can be inserted on the projector to do the demonstration, and even through the network with the screen, in a convenient However, it is.
The application section is on the right side. Applications for various systems and self-installed applications appear on this side. The small hand on the map is because the mouse was plugged in...
There are a variety of setting options in the system settings, which can be set for different projects. The whole interface is very similar to the home TV.
The different places are mainly focused on the projection settings. The projector has a lot more setting options than the TV. The first is the LED brightness adjustment item, which is divided into the viewing mode, highlighting mode, and custom mode. The custom mode can even customize the brightness of various colors.
The projection method is also divided into four modes: positive-fitting, positive-throwing, front-projection, rear-projection, and rear-projection. There is no obvious change in the motion picture, but in reality the images of the four settings are all different in direction. Can adapt to different installation needs of users.
The trapezoidal correction can be performed by an automatic method. The horizontal correction of the gyroscope is performed first, and then the trapezoidal correction can be performed automatically. Manual correction supports -50 to 50 degrees of adjustment.
The fan speed is defaulted to automatic, and can also be manually adjusted, a total of 10 adjustable, but it is usually not recommended to adjust the fan speed. Too low speed may cause the LED temperature to be too high.
The resource manager can view the data stored inside the projector. The default access storage is 8G. It can also access other device data in the LAN through DLNA, etc. The golden drive letter is the data of other devices accessed by DLNA.
If the internal hard disk is installed, remote download can also be done through Thunder download, but one is that the price of solid-state hard disk is high. Who will use such a expensive projector as a downloader?
At the same time also built mango tv client, which contains all the resources of mango tv, through the binding gift VIP card, you can basically achieve free viewing of most of the resources, but there are still some part of the need to charge separately ... Of course, you can also Install some other software like I did to solve this problem...
summary:
In terms of the overall system UI, GMUI is a relatively mature system that does not require much learning costs and has its own unique small features. After a few days of high-density use, it was not found that there was a crash and restart. The stability of the system was not bad. As for the video source part, in fact, there is not much sense to measure. The more quantity does not mean that you want to see more, and the more you want to see does not mean that the picture quality is high. So this is not a detailed description. In any case, we always have a solution to this problem.
Fourth, mobile assistantSince it is smart, it will naturally be the help of mobile assistants. The mobile phone assistant function that comes with the meter is quite powerful.
The default is the remote control interface. The large buttons are convenient to use.
The left side can call up other options, among which the remote control device can be switched, the application part can manage the internal application of the projector, and the mobile phone resource can directly push the picture music and other resources in the mobile phone to the projection device.
Focus on the same screen, in fact, is based on Miracast's mobile phone with the screen technology (Apple's mobile phone is the use of AirPlay), is very convenient to use. Can be two-way with the screen, the following figure in this upper-left corner with a + sign is through the same screen after the screenshot in the mobile phone.
The right side of the remote control is a variety of convenient functions, including input, touchpad, screenshots and other functions.
When the touchpad function is clicked, the entire remote controller becomes a touchpad and can be used for drawing or marking.
Focusing part is to make the volume button on the remote control become focus button, because the focus is usually not used much, occasionally use this design just right.
summary:
The mobile phone assistant of Mijimi has relatively comprehensive design of various functions, and no obvious abnormality appears in the actual use process, which is considered as an APP with a relatively high completion degree. However, when you switch to the background and then switch back, you will occasionally see an abnormal exit and look forward to a follow-up solution.
Fifth, the projection effectBecause of the lack of a single-lens reflex, part of the projection effect has only taken a few pictures, so there is a simple explanation. The following pictures are all Z4X directly projected on the white wall, about 2 meters away, Xiaomi 4 mobile phone real shot, the latter only make the size adjustment, without any other treatment.
The shooting time is in the afternoon. Open the door, put the sunlight in, and take 2 photos. It can be seen that the ambient light is bright, but the picture and text are still clearly visible. Although the color is light, it is still acceptable.
At the same time for two, close the doors and windows, pull on the curtains, did not turn on the lights, you can basically simulate the dark room at night. Can be seen at this time the brightness and color are much better, this effect is still relatively ideal.
Let's look at the out-of-focus problem in the next four corners. When focusing on the center of the screen, the four corners will normally have different degrees of out-of-focus. The Z4X performed fairly well in this section. The out-of-focus angles in the four corners are relatively small and the overall effect is very good.
Let's look at the problem of pixels under projection. This is actually inevitable. The resolution of 720P will inevitably appear obvious pixels when it is projected to around 100 inches. However, it is certainly no problem if viewed from a distance. Well, it doesn't seem like you can see it after compressing the picture...
summary:
Overall, the projection effect still satisfied me. At night, watching a movie at home is still very good. With Harman/kardon's speakers, there is basically no need for external devices. Leading adults are ready to use for training. During the day, they need to put on the curtains and turn off the headlights. The PPT contrast is slightly higher and it is not a problem either. Each lesson only need to bring a projector, no computer, less trouble.
Sixth, quality problemsThis problem... I actually spent more than a week like this and I didn't plan to have this section. I did not expect a sudden remote control failure yesterday, but fortunately I can use the meter assistant to control it. After consulting customer service, it was found that the original part of the remote control battery is not very well contacted, and it will also be more expensive. When I was in Jingdong Consulting customer service, I hadn’t stated the specific situation. The customer service answered my questions very fluently, and I could not help but think that this seemed to be a common problem.... Baidu has found out that it’s really common. There is no better solution...
Full text summary: advantage:
1) The appearance is stunning. It can be used as a landscape in the living room. The wall-mounted bracket of the official poster is even more amazing. Unfortunately, it has not seen the official store shelves.
2) Strong performance, as the new flagship of this year, all of its performance indicators are the best and none of them.
3) Mango tv's resources are relatively complete, and the hit song "Cloud Song" is also released simultaneously. The speed is faster.
Disadvantages:
1) A tripod can only be mounted on a transfer tray. It is slightly inconvenient. The official wall-mounting bracket has not been launched. The eyes are very...
2) Hard disk drive can only put 7mm solid-state hard disk, most people will not use, if you can launch the battery accessories to achieve the effect of offline use will be better.
3) The power consumption of the remote controller is very fast. Currently, it is not known whether the failure occurs occasionally or often. However, according to customer service, the remote controller consumes relatively fast power.
Unexpectedly, the original purpose was to earn some gold coins. In fact, I have always had a good impression on this product, so it may have a certain subjective tendency when writing. It cannot be denied that the Polar Z4X is indeed a good product. In the current state, the brightness of the LED projector is always incomparable with that of a conventional mercury lamp projector. Therefore, diversification and intelligence are a better way out. The pole rice goes very far on this road. From an intelligent point of view, there are many smart projectors nowadays, and there is no shortage of high-grade projectors. There are also nuts in the same grade. However, the system optimization of the meters is the best. At the same time, with the cooperation of mango, its video resources are obtained. A huge addition. From the perspective of the projector, in the LED projector, the 580 lumens of the Z4X is the highest compared with the 450-500 lumens of the brightness of other brand's flagship products. DLP and dual-optical path technology provide good results. Now that Kami Rice has accepted the huge investment of Mango Media, then, we look forward to the better performance of Kami Rice!
Let's throw in a trough, Jingdong raises the mascot doll of the extremely rice so ugly, you won't see photos for you! ! ! !
