iQOO Neo8 worth waiting for? MatePad Air price?

【PhoneAuto】The digital circle in May has new mobile phones, new cameras, and new tablets, most of which are released by some well-known brands, making it quite a hot topic.

The already released realme 11 series wants to make a “decisive attack” this time, so it has come up with the concept of “lossless zoom” as a promotional point, claiming that the machine has the strength comparable to the imaging flagship. Among them, the realme 11 Pro+ is equipped with a 200 million pixel super-sensitive main camera that supports lossless single-lens zoom, and the price is only more than 2,000 yuan.

The iQOO Neo8 series, which will be launched at the end of this month, is expected to be the masterpiece of iQOO. It not only first launched the Tianji 9200+ chip, but also has self-developed V1+ chip to achieve dual-core enhancement. There is still a lot of information that has not been released about this model, but it is worth looking forward to.

In addition to new mobile phones, the recently released Nikon Z8 has also caused some discussion in the digital circle. The positioning of the Nikon Z8 is similar to that of the Nikon Z9. It condenses its core functions and is almost a small Nikon Z9. Some netizens said that the Nikon Z8 has obtained more things from the Nikon Z9 than he imagined. As a result, consumers are facing a dilemma when choosing between these two models, or rather, many people regret buying the Nikon Z9.

Finally, the Huawei MatePad Air will also be unveiled shortly. From the perspective of benchmarking Apple, this should be a mid-range tablet, and the competitor should be the iPad Air 5, but the price should be cheaper.

“Let flagship imaging no longer be out of reach.” These are a few eye-catching words displayed on the big screen at the realme new product launch event, indicating that the mission of the realme 11 Pro+ is to popularize flagship imaging. But can it achieve this goal?

The realme 11 Pro+ is equipped with a 200 million pixel ultra-sensitive main camera, which uses the Samsung ISOCELL HP3 super zoom version sensor, with a 1/1.4 inch ultra-large bottom photosensitive element and f/1.69 ultra-large aperture. This is the largest bottom and largest aperture in this price range. At the same time, the new phone also supports 200 million pixel direct output, which will provide more photo details. In addition, the phone’s storage space can be as high as 1TB, so high-frequency use of 200 million pixel direct output is not a problem.

More importantly, the realme 11 Pro+ is the first mobile phone equipped with 4x lossless single-lens zoom technology, supporting 2x/4x lossless single-lens zoom, 2x texture portrait and targeted zoom, and providing super night scene, moon mode, and handheld starry sky mode. Unlike traditional digital zoom, realme 11 Pro+ achieves lossless single-lens zoom through optical zoom, and the imaging quality will hardly decrease. However, most current flagship phones support 5x optical zoom, and the next generation of iPhone is said to achieve 6x optical zoom.

The processor used in the realme 11 Pro+ is unexpected, as it uses the Dimensity 1200 flagship chip. It is difficult to evaluate this chip at present and it will depend on actual testing. Objectively speaking, although the realme 11 Pro+ has its own face optimization algorithm, it is difficult to surpass flagship phones in photo processing, and it is unknown how the actual experience will be.

Of course, the realme 11 Pro+ has a good price point at 1999 yuan for its initial sale, and coupled with its nearly flagship-level imaging capabilities, it still has a certain degree of appeal.

The iQOO Neo8 series will be announced on May 23 at 19:00. The mid-range smartphone market is becoming more and more competitive, and the pressure on this new handset from iQOO is quite high. Will there be any new technology added? Will the price be competitive? All of these factors will impact its sales. Therefore, the end of May will be a fierce battle in the mid-range smartphone market.

iQOO Neo8 series

Let’s take a look at the current market for mid-range smartphones: the OnePlus Ace 2V is currently selling on JD.com for a starting price of 2299 yuan, the newly released realme 11 Pro+ starts at 1999 yuan, and the Redmi Note 12 Turbo also starts at 1999 yuan. These mid-range smartphones are all competing in the 2000 yuan price range. If the iQOO Neo8 series can bring down the price, then its future market performance will be worth watching.

Currently, the iQOO Neo8 series is still in the preheating stage, and limited information has been released.

iQOO Neo8 series

According to official information, the iQOO Neo8 series will be equipped with dual flagship chips, namely the world’s first MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ chip and the self-developed V1+ chip. Among them, the Dimensity 9200+ chip has already been released. It is built using the second generation of TSMC’s 4nm process and supports game adaptive adjustment technology (MAGT), which can save 12% power consumption. There is also some improvement in imaging capabilities, so it can be expected to perform well.

In summary, as a new handset, the iQOO Neo8 series has some advantages in terms of using new technology. However, the most important factor is pricing. If the starting price can be differentiated from other mid-range smartphones, it will be a game-changer.

Now that the Nikon Z8 is out, the position of the Nikon Z9 seems to have become very awkward. Although the Nikon Z9 is very powerful, the Nikon Z8 has basically transplanted its core capabilities, and is lighter and cheaper. What can you compete with the Nikon Z9?

Nikon Z8

First of all, the Nikon Z8 basically takes all the photo and video specifications of the Z9 and doesn’t cut any corners. The Nikon Z8 uses the same 45.71 million effective pixel stacked CMOS image sensor and EXPEED 7 image processor as the Z9, with equivalent high-speed, high-precision autofocus performance.

At the same time, it also supports 12-bit N-RAW, ProRes RAW HQ, 10-bit ProRes 422 HQ and H.265 internal recording, and can continuously record about 125 minutes of 4K UHD/60p or about 90 minutes of 8K UHD/30p video, and adds a dedicated airplane detection mode.

Nikon Z8

Moreover, the Nikon Z8 body is about 30% smaller and about 430 grams lighter than the Z9, making it easier for users to work outdoors. However, the cost is that its battery life is almost halved, and its heat dissipation capacity is not as good as the Z9. Of course, the Nikon Z8 also offers the MB-N12 battery box to enhance battery life, so this is not a problem.

More importantly, the Nikon Z8 is much cheaper than the Nikon Z9, with a domestic single body price of only 27,999 yuan, while the Z9 single body price is close to 40,000 yuan. However, the problem is that you may not be able to grab a Nikon Z8 now, even if you can grab one, you may have to pay a premium, while the Nikon Z9 is currently available in stable supply.

Huawei’s Summer All-Scenario New Product Launch will be held at 19:30 on May 18th, with the protagonist being the flagship notebook, but the new tablet is probably more anticipated.

Huawei Summer All-Scenario New Product Launch

According to multiple sources, Huawei is preparing two new tablets, the MatePad Air and MatePad mini, but the MatePad Air is probably the new tablet that will be unveiled this time, while the MatePad mini will be released later. Judging from Huawei’s official preheating, the MatePad Air will be lighter and thinner, and may be more suitable for light office scenarios while also catering to certain entertainment needs.

Huawei MatePad Air preheating

Some netizens speculate that as a mid-range tablet from Huawei, the MatePad Air may sell for more than 3,000 yuan, which is slightly more expensive than the MatePad 11, but lighter and thinner. Compared to the MatePad 11, it clearly has more new features, and what exactly they are will depend on the May 18th launch event. Compared to the iPad Air 5, it is far less expensive, so it has a significant price advantage.

From the various configuration information currently available online, the MatePad Air does seem to be priced at around 3,000 yuan. However, the starting price of the MatePad Air is estimated to be below 3,000 yuan, which may attract users who want to replace their MatePad 11.

Of course, in terms of price, the realme 11 Pro+ still has a hold on it, with a first sale price of 1999 yuan, coupled with image capabilities that are close to flagship level, it is still quite tempting.
