What is the preface [demand]?

We can say that demand refers to the need for people to be willing and able to buy a specific commodity at various [possible prices] within a certain period of time.

For most people, it is a waste to spend thousands of yuan on a device they can't use. However, such a [unique] device may precisely meet the needs of a small number of people, and within a certain period of time, become the only choice, become a [rigid demand].

Xiaoxin Pad Pro 12.7 is a unique device.

1. This article focuses on personal experience, which may be incomplete or exaggerated. Please forgive me.

2. The software mentioned in this paper may change with the update of the system.

3. This article is about 3000 words, and it takes about 10 minutes to read.

The biggest bright spot of the appearance of the small new Pad Pro 12.7 is undoubtedly this 12.7inch large screen LCD.

It is almost the size of a 13-inch laptop, and at 16:10, the experience of watching videos and codewords on a table is much better than an 11-inch tablet.

The picture shows a comparison with a 14-inch notebook.

Due to the switch to LCD material, the contrast of this screen is lower than that of the previous generation 12.6-inch OLED.

But as it happens, what many people want is the LCD screen, which is not easy to get tired after watching for a long time.

The parameters of this screen can be called luxury, the resolution of 2944x1840, according to the usual name, should be called "3K screen". And give 144Hz a high refresh rate.

It also has DCI-P3 color gamut, 10bit color depth and full brightness DC dimming, and the measured maximum brightness is about 420nit.

The following are the results of the test using the Esseli i1 colorimeter, which is still good.

The black edge of the screen is about 10mm, which is roughly the same as the non-Pro version of iPad. There is a plastic bracket around the screen, which is probably limited by the cost.

However, for the flat plate, the wide frame may not be a disadvantage, the wider frame is more convenient to grasp, and the large size can also reduce the visual width of the frame, which is still relatively harmonious as a whole.

The camera complies with the trend and adopts a three-stage design, and the whole gray glass panel of the gun will have different luster at different angles, which looks more exquisite than the previous design.

The back of the fuselage is the Lenovo family design, two-stage collision color, integrated aluminum alloy stamping fuselage. Although it has used many generations of design, but the tough style, simple color is still very good-looking.

The back is also the stylus magnetic charging area, compared with other brands to attract the pen in the frame design, appears to be very "maverick".

One of the advantages of this design is that when walking with a flat plate, the pen is more difficult to get hit.

The difficulty is that when the pen is absorbed, the flat plate cannot be flattened, and the authorities have obviously taken this into account by introducing a protective clip with a pen slot, which sells for less than 100 yuan.

On the other hand, the back shell of the keyboard equipped with the flat panel is designed as a "Surface-like" rotating shaft, which can stand up with a gentle break.

Although there is still a gap between hinge damping and hover stability from the Surface, it can not be used as a flat plate side-tilting painting / writing support, but it meets the daily code word, there is no problem in watching the play, and the price with the keyboard is 400. what kind of bike do you want?

The flat panel has JBL certified four speakers on the side, thanks to the large size of the fuselage, the sound cavity capacity of 2.3cc, and the use of 10V high-voltage power amplifier driver.

The following is a personal sense of hearing:

Compared with the 11-inch iPad Pro, the low frequency part is quite full on the whole. Large-size wide-spaced loudspeakers, coupled with Dolby panoramic sound, the sound field performance is also impressive, except for the slightly weaker high-frequency part, it is already an excellent performance at the same price.

The tablet also has "alien technology" MicroSD card slots to expand capacity.

And equipped with USB-C interface is USB3.2 gen1 full-function, support DP1.4 video output, can be external display.

Software experience has never been Lenovo's strong point, but this time the new Pad Pro 12.7 brings some new things, such as split screens.

You can even open up to five windows (quad + suspension window) at the same time to fill the large screen and pull infrequent applications from the app library at any time.

It also supports dragging and dropping files between different applications.

When dividing the screen, click the dot at the top of the window to switch the window shape.

The global landscape screen and parallel windows are adapted a lot, and most of the commonly used App that do not support landscape screen can be adapted.

And video calls when the portrait center, matting, real-time translation and other functions are also supported, with a decent front lens, used as a video conference, is much better than the mosaic cameras of many low-cost laptops.

With the full-featured USB-C interface mentioned above, the tablet also supports turning on computer mode when an external monitor is attached, dragging and stretching windows at will, and there is no limit to the number of App that can be opened at the same time.

However, the App in this desktop mode is presented in the form of a floating window and cannot be dragged between two screens, which is a long way from the familiar PC / MAC experience. It should be able to cope with some simple office scenes, and it is more than enough for video playback.

Not only that, he also has many functions linked with PC, such as this super file app, which can view flat-end files at any time on PC, or vice versa, PC files.

After installing the super interconnection, it is also possible to put the tablet end into the PC, and even use the tablet as an extension of the PC.

As an extended screen, you can call audio, touch or even a stylus on the flat end, and even use the tablet as a digital screen.

For learning purposes, ZUI has also done some functions, such as this Tianjiao School.

After opening, you will enter a separate set of desktops, which provides a lot of teaching materials and videos in and out of class, synchronized with the semester process, as well as exercises for the current learning stage, and has supporting correction and error correction functions.

At the same time, the download of the app market will be limited, the content that browsers can view will also be limited, and parents' phones can manage the available App and how long they can use it at any time, and even there is a full-featured eye protection test in this mode, which will pop up if you are too close to the tablet or if you use it for a long time.

It is a very practical function for parents of primary and middle school students who are worried that their children are addicted to games and short videos.

The experience of peripherals is worthy of the manufacturer of PC. This keyboard is basically the experience of a full-size keyboard on a notebook. 1.5mm key range, large size brings wide spacing, key feedback is crisp, key cap shake is very small, touchpad is also very smooth.

There are also a number of key combinations designed on the keyboard, similar to those Win+ [] shortcuts on our PC.

The top row of function keys is basically the specification of the laptop.

Two customizable App quick start keys have also been added. For example, you can press APP1 to quickly open a calculator that doesn't even have iPad. Press APP2. The original god! Turn it on! (bushi)

The surface of the keyboard is skin-like, which is easier to get dirty than the hard surface. But the biggest advantage of the magnetic keyboard is that when you need some electronic mustard, you can remove the keyboard at any time, change back to the flat shape, and greatly lose weight at the same time. After all, the 12.7-inch flat panel keyboard still carries some weight.

After removing the keyboard and back cover, boy, you can lose half your weight. The weight of more than 600 g, coupled with the large fuselage, is relatively scattered, so it is not a big problem to hold it for a short time.

Compared with the heavy keyboard, this stylus is almost light in the hand, and 13g is basically the weight of an ordinary neutral pen.

The first feeling of the second generation pen is that the delay is significantly lower than that of the previous generation, and there is basically no sense of delay for daily note-taking (the frame rate of gif is only 25fps, which can not fully represent the actual delay). Coupled with the fact that it has some soft, resistant tips, the writing feels pretty good, at least better than the glass stamped by iPad.

The stylus also comes with some small features, such as the amazing iPad to write directly in the input box and automatically convert it into text.

There are also many practical functions, such as remote control camera photography, selection screenshot, electronic pointer, loss prevention reminder, message screen sketching and so on.

The performance of the new Pad Pro 12.7 carries a Snapdragon 870. the fluency of daily use is still quite high. Games with low load such as King of Kings and Chicken eating basically do not have to worry about performance problems.

Under the simple test, the original god with a relatively high load, under Fengdan's new map, the average of the whole journey is about 55 frames, and some small cards will appear when the scene is loaded, pulling down the average frame.

Call up the data and find that the scheduling of the 870 is not very radical, maybe you can ota a "performance mode"?

The advantage is that thanks to not aggressive scheduling and a large metal body, after 15 minutes of the game, the handheld part is still cold, and the hottest body is only about 41 degrees.

You should know that this is nearly 30 degrees room temperature, the same configuration of the phone should be too hot to hold.

In the final analysis, however, these large-size tablets are actually not very suitable for these heavy-operation games. In fact, I am afraid it is used to play cards, self-moving chess and audio games. The load of these games is not high, and 870 should be relaxed and enjoyable.

Try streaming again, test PC for 4070Ti graphics card, wired network connection, the streaming delay of Steam link is basically around 70ms. The large screen with Qualcomm's excellent decoding delay and high refresh rate makes it very suitable for lying in bed and streaming PC games with a handle.

Charging & the battery life of the original charger is 20W and only supports QC3.0 protocol. It is estimated that it is a cost consideration. This tablet actually supports 27W PD / PPS protocol charging.

The tablet actually supports 27W charging, basically at 25-27W power, and can be fully charged in less than two hours.

Equipped with 10200mAh's high-capacity battery, the charge is not fast, but it is enough. After being full, the battery life of playing 1080p video online can reach about 8 hours, which basically takes only a few days to recharge as long as many people use the tablet.

To sum up the key words of the target group of Xiaoxin Pad Pro 12.7, it is obvious that they are big screen, light entertainment, learning and so on.

As a result, it can give up some of the texture of the fuselage, fast charging and the latest flagship SoC in exchange for the cost-effective price of 1000.

Perhaps this product still has some shortcomings, such as poor fluency and a lot of bug ZUI systems. People who are not interested in large-screen tablets and Android tablets will also be dismissive of him.

But he has this excellent big screen, a keyboard similar to a notebook, and a good stylus writing experience.

What is meeting demand?

Right to what you need, at the right price. In short, what is suitable is the best.

At present, the large screen tablet with a price of 1000 yuan is almost the only one. Assuming you have this demand, I would recommend the maverick choice of Xiaoxin Pad Pro 12.7.
