TCL 950 Review: Unexpected Business Dark Horse

IT168 Review You may not believe that there is a mobile phone brand that has not introduced a representative in the smart era. However, this history can finally be rewritten today. On September 28, 2016, TCL Mobile launched a new product, the TCL 950, at the Group's press conference. According to the official statement, the TCL 950 is a flagship mobile phone for business. Shui Ye thinks that this is the TCL smart phone that I used the most design sense, the smoothest running, and the best photo taking.


TCL 950 Review: Unexpected Business Dark Horse

As a flagship mobile phone, in addition to carrying Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, 4GB of memory, 21 million pixel camera, NFC, Type-C fast charge, fingerprint recognition is also readily available. In addition, JBL headphones are also standard, and yes, the standard headphones are JBL. As for the development of business functions, it is also sincere and sincerity, such as WeChat information encryption, independent physical shortcuts, and so on.

TCL 950 detailed parameters mobile phone model TCL 950 screen size 5.5 inch AMOLED resolution 1920 × 1080 processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 frequency 64-bit quad-core 2.15GHz body storage 64GB scalable operating memory 4GB main camera 21 million pixels support phase focus front Camera 8 million pixels body size 153.6 × 75.4 × 6.99 mm body weight 165g battery 3000mAh body color gold / silver operating system Android 6.0 network standard Netcom 4G + dual card dual standby price 3299 yuan

After seeing Shui Ye’s saying a lot of good things, the younger partner definitely felt that TCL 950 was quickly won over. So next we still proceed from the actual experience to test whether the TCL 950 is in line with the image of the flagship mobile phone.

The first impression of the atmosphere

From the box to the accessories, to the phone itself, the black main colors create a first impression of the atmosphere. But for this golden yellow metal box, Shui Ye feels a bit tacky. However, I remember that my friends said that "the big custom is the most elegant," and perhaps this is a light luxury style in the eyes of designers and business people.

The TCL 950 uses a post-fingerprint design. It is quite easy to use it. The identification area is relatively small. When unlocking, it needs to be more focused, otherwise it will not be recognized. In terms of recognition speed, the official data of the TCL 950 is 0.5 seconds, and the actual experience is still acceptable. Of course, there is still some distance from the top echelon.

Regardless of the color of the topic, Yu Ye thinks that the line on the side of the TCL 950 is the biggest highlight of the body design. The curved metal middle frame not only makes the TCL 950 look thin (actually thin), but also allows the 2.5D glass to have a curved glass.

Despite the large number of curved elements applied, the TCL 950 still maintains a rigorous symmetrical design. Symmetry can give people a feeling of balance and stability, which is also a must for business models. For young users, there is naturally less cleverness and fancy.

The TCL 950 features a 21-megapixel camera that is visually pleasing. The official thickness of the TCL 950 is 6.99 mm, and the water level is less than 6.4 mm. It may be because the camera body is very thin. The camera protrudes from the back. Taking into account the feel, photographing effect, in the appearance of compromise on the perception, or understandable (Virgo expressed dissatisfaction).

Although the appearance of the TCL 950 in the top and bottom are placed outside (handset) openings. However, unlike idol 3, the TCL 950 has only one handset and cannot be switched over. In fact, these openings are designed for stereo placement. Through WAVE professional tuning stereo speakers, the performance of the mobile phone is shocking.

TCL 950 comes standard with a pair of JBL headphones, although the water did not search on the electricity supplier to the same paragraph. However, the sense of hearing is really good, after all, it is the authoritative audio debugging expert Waves tuning. The stress is best, but it does not affect the performance of the middle and high voices. The overall performance is very resistant to hearing.


Is a higher standard in the standard headphones


System: safer and more convenient

TCL 950 is loaded with Android 6.0 system, in order to meet the main business design, the designer brought the style of such a personalized UI, do not know if you are used to. As for the fluency of the system, with the impetus of the Snapdragon 820 plus 4GB of memory, there is no need to go into details. After all, systems developed for business people are the focus of safety and convenience.

Message encryption and guest mode

In the spy movie, we certainly saw the use of password communication segments, we can also experience this feature on the TCL950. TCL 950 has built-in exclusive “secret letter” function, which can encode and encrypt the contents of WeChat and SMS messages to prevent the leakage of important communications.


"Missing" opens with a password and fingerprint

After the “secret letter” function is enabled, when entering text in a chat tool such as WeChat, QQ, or SMS, click the blue smiley icon to compile the input content into a code. The other party's mobile phone receives only the code, and the third party mobile phone needs to install “secret letter” if it wants to read it.


Encrypted text message

However, after a third-party mobile phone installs “secret letter,” it can only read encoded information, but cannot send an encoded text message.


"Letters" is a unique weapon of TCL 950

Based on the text message of "Caixin", you need to open the function before you can read it. When the user finishes chatting, the “secret letter” is closed , and if it is turned on again, a password or fingerprint identification is needed, which prevents the disclosure of information.


Cracking this compiled text message is almost impossible

Based on different finger fingerprints, the TCL 950 can open a guest mode for third-party users. For example, the owner of a mobile phone unlocks his index finger on the left hand, and the middle finger is used to unlock the time when he borrows the mobile phone to use it. At this time, the guest mode will be activated, and some private contents such as albums and APPs that are set in advance will be hidden. This is also a standard feature of popular business phones.


With dual WeChat, double QQ, hide one of the accounts, no longer afraid of his wife check Gang

Based on different fingerprints to activate different functions, TCL 950 also has a built-in one-button alarm function. In case of crisis, only the fingers set in advance need to be identified, and the TCL 950 will automatically send emergency information to the emergency contacts in the background. This function may not always be available, but it can save lives in the event of a dangerous accident such as a traffic accident or kidnapping.


Shui Ye nicknamed this function - a key to help

One-click payment / one-click fear / conference assistant

We introduced in the front, TCL 950 in the middle of the fuselage right side with a shortcut button - "Pleasure Key". This key can realize many different functions by short press and long press in the status of information screen and light screen. Among them, Shui Ye feels that the long press of the pop-up WeChat payment, as well as the information under the Ping-Ping Ching-an fear the most practical.


I still don’t understand why I’m an exclamation mark


In any state, you can press and hold the button for a long time, but after you enter the fingerprint, it will not work. You can only use it when the screen is on.


TCL 950 supports high-speed PDAF focusing, high success rate in bright light


One-click scratching fast moving objects will slightly smear


A key to grasp the normal movement of the proofs, the picture is very clear

In order to further facilitate business people, the TCL 950 also has a conference assistant built in (although no one likes to meet). The APP has two modes, one is that during the recording process, images and text can be inserted as logos. In this way, when reviewing meeting records, you can quickly find the corresponding content.


Conference Assistant

As for the minutes of the conversation, it can be done through the interview mode. The feature of this function is that the voice can be directly converted into a document, of course, requires a clear dialogue, Mandarin pronunciation standard. If the accuracy of the meeting record is higher, the meeting assistant can also provide users with a paid-for manual transcription service


It's a lot easier to do these minutes


Photographing: Color details are superb

As mentioned earlier, TCL 950 uses a 21 million / 8 million pixel combination. I believe the old players are also very familiar with this main camera, based on the Sony IMX230 sensor, 6P lens group structure, support F2.2 aperture and phase focus. This camera has the advantages of high pixel resolution, good image detail, and natural color reproduction; however, the Sony IMX230, which achieves 21 million pixels on a 1/2.4 inch screen, will cause a bit more noise in the low-light environment.


With the adoption of large-size sensors, the volume of the camera is naturally larger.

The Sony IMX230 used to be used in a variety of flagship mobile phone cameras, so it has considerable experience in the optimization of its imaging performance. Therefore, before the water master did not boot, it was decided that the TCL 950 camera will not be worse.


Sony IMX230 size is very large

Camera features TCL 950 is not sloppy, including beauty, manual, filters, etc. are also readily available. The filter system is finally integrated in the camera interface, allowing users to see the filter effect instantly.

Performance power

The TCL 950 is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor and is equipped with 4GB of memory and 64GB of storage. Performance is part of the current top echelon. This can also be seen from the security Bunny ran points, TCL 950 play a Xiaolong 820 should have the performance level. Although the performance is tough, the Snapdragon 820 uses an advanced 14nm process, so even if you play games or watch movies, you won't have too much heat.


Snapdragon 820 brings powerful performance

In terms of battery life, the TCL 950 has a built-in 3000mAh battery, which is a mainstream level of capacity. As for fast charging, it is also supported, but only two specifications of 5V2A and 9V1.67A are slightly different from the commonly used 9V2A.


TCL 950 fast charging measured

With 50% brightness and WIFI connection, nearly 2 hours of entertainment experience consumes nearly 20% of power. To cope with the moderate use of daily commuting, the problem is not big in one day. But if it is for a small partner who is running out all day, the 3000mAh power is still a bit urgent.

The duration of the project consumes power "Superman Superman" 30 minutes 8% online movie 45 minutes 10% music playback 30 minutes 1%

Edit Comment

At the beginning of the article, Yu Ye has already said that this is the best TCL smartphone ever used by the author . Whether it is strong performance, or confidential information and conference assistant functions developed for business people, TCL Mobile hopes to use TCL 950 to further its differentiation in the line of sincerity.


TCL 950

In addition to the machine itself, TCL 950 also comes standard with a JBL headset, Bluetooth remote control, 3299 yuan although the price is high, but it is good value for money. However, for the charger, the water master is still very happy, after all, to achieve 9V2A this specification and there is no technical difficulty. If you consider from the cost, a 3,000-class flagship is still poor charger money?

Although the TCL 950 is advertised as a business phone, the TCL 950 is also a good choice for small partners who have the quest for performance and appearance.
