Today, there is a lot’s of interesting smartphone out there, the price ranging equal with specs and screen size, while for domestic smartphone manufacturer, the rule is break through the high-specs  smartphone products but offers with very affordable price. Thanks to MediaTek which offers the good specs of processor but offers with low-end price.

One of the domestic smartphone manufaturer, NEO has beenlaunch the NEO N003 smartphone on early of August this year, and now they also release the upgrade version of NEO N003 smartphone. The new NEO N003 is brings more larger RAM and ROM capacity.

While the recent products offers with only 1GB of RAM and 4GB of ROM, the new NEO N003 smartphone is now offers with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage space, the new NEO smartphone is also packs with 1080P.

Relatively low with another common, but 1G RAM +4 G ROM memory specifications, the high version upgrade to 2G +32 G memory, the overall argument is undoubtedly more beautiful for the party, but still there are certain parameters attractive, especially also has HD output, USB OTG and other functions, but also enriched the playability of N003, 2G +32 G memory N003 in MTK platform products is undoubtedly high distribution models.

A, appearance, body details
Earlier we saw the N003’s low version, is all black color, is the back of the fuselage are black, complemented by silver side designs. Currently using this machine in hand a lot of friends like former black white colors, compared to the black version of the atmospheric deep, white cover + silver side white version is a combination of a little more fashionable, I believe that the girls will be more like it.

Battery capacity up to 3000 mA, which is the thickness of 10.5mm machine is one of the main endurance is ideal, basically 1-2 days without problems from the packaging point of view two versions of the battery are the same, can Universal.

Second, the performance / game
High version and low with the biggest difference is the size of memory, 2GB of memory to run high version is undoubtedly more powerful performance, this is a large part of the local Friends keen on large memory model causes. Large memory to run the benefits we all know, no pressure to open up the task, play the big game more fluid, etc., plus the upgraded CPU and GPU MTK6589T quad-core processor, high version a better experience, first of all let’s look at see several commonly used software to run sub test results.

Two people most commonly used test software – the latest version of Master Lu Ann Bunny 4.0 and the latest version of a comprehensive test showed high version Rio N003 scores are 14,089 points and 16,474 points for HTML5 browser performance test score of 15,239 points stronger than the MX2 four cores.

Security Bunny 4.0 Stability Test is a new feature, continuous operation by the processor to run sub compressive strength test phone, the results show high version N003 performance is good, high-load temperature has been stable at 39 degrees, while the Average score value of about 52, although the temperature is very high and, in fact, there is no holding back hot feeling. The screen with the same low version can support 5:00 simultaneously touch.

NenaMark 2.4 3D graphics performance test results for 34 fps, with scores quite low version.

With 2GB of memory to run high version if you do not play the big game certainly not demonstrated its value, we were tested four popular mainstream games, which are large-scale real 3D Racing Racing 3 and Need for Speed ​​17, Role Playing Eternal Warrior 2 hot new tour as well as casual games Zombies 2.

Casual new game Zombies 2 HD version Needless to say, very smooth, smooth playing Eternal Warrior 2 is no pressure, racing’s two big games although only 20 FPS frame, but still very smooth, with no obvious Caton, in the case of 1080P resolution at 20 frames or more stable also commendable.

Third, the screen / system

1, the screen
Rio high version N003 screen size consistent with the low version, equipped with a 5-inch IPS screen resolution of 1920 * 1080,441 the PPI gives the N003 a very fine display, the same viewing angle is also very good.

Maximum brightness from different angles of the test can be seen, Rio N003 high version of the screen viewing angle is very good, almost 178 degrees flat as can have a clear display, and no other forms whitish discoloration condition, true color reproduction. In addition, we chose a screen size with the same MTK6589T models for multi-chart comparing proofs as follows: is

Above the top of the photo machine is Rio N003, below the product also has five inches 1080P resolution screen, the two models are the maximum brightness, through different color image contrast can be seen, N003 wins in terms of true color on the other phone, the screen colors more vivid, and the brightness is also higher, while the bottom screen some yellow product, warm colors.

2, the system

High version is also Andrews 4.21 version of the Android operating system, with the lower version interface is the same, but the high version of the latest systems integration ROOT privileges, which is associated with low version of the system the most obvious difference, the user acquired without prior ROOT, right white users the most practical. Besides aircraft built as Jinshan cleaning, Maxthon browser and system optimization utility software.

After the bottom of the main interface tray landscaping, as translucent, the other in respect with native Andrews 4.21 and not much difference where, telephone and SMS interface can also be free to choose the card 1 or card 2 to communicate.

Rio N003 ReviewRio N003 Review This article comes from MTK mobile phone network http://www.mtksj.com

High version for the first time after boot RAM occupied by about nearly 600M, with low version is almost, but because with 2GB of memory to run, the available memory to run more, 32GB of memory storage space is sufficient to the vast majority of users, without adding a memory card separately troubles, for suffering from “obsessive-compulsive disorder memory” of users, large memory can play a good “cure effect.”

MTK6589T quad-core plus 2GB of memory to run the hardware provides a good basis for high-speed version of the system with paddling or open task will occasionally have small Caton phenomenon, but fluency compared to the low version is better, the system does not lose fluency Other configurations of the same product.

Fourth, photos
N003 high version of the camera specifications remain unchanged, as after the first 300 million pixels + 13 million pixels dual combination, the main camera has a F2.2 aperture, is relatively high in the present specification. Camera interface is still the native Android interface that provides a common function, we use the default settings to shoot some proofs, we can refer to.

Lit during the day in case photos are still performing well, since the right-focus speed, close-up shots focusing success rate, picture sharpness, colors are in place, but sometimes less accurate metering, such as shade or a smooth light shooting, Also worth mentioning is photographed at night better results than the low version, do not know because the brush of the latest version of the system after the optimization’s sake? Overall N003 camera still can punctuate, not much pressure to cope with everyday pictures.

V. Summary
As previously said, with 2GB of memory to run high version Rio N003 version with low performance compared to a lot of running sub-scores are not very satisfactory, but from game demos, system and other aspects of experience can obviously feel the change, That is more smoothly. Another high with white version work well, the machine no obvious cracks and other bad illnesses, although the back cover of plastic material such as, piano paint handling metallic plus side, etc., gives a sense of fashion. However, the two systems, and camera phones ills should increase Andrews optimization efforts, perhaps the official update the system power.
