Technology reviewers are running out of superlatives to describe just how good it is. But they're not talking about the latest from Apple. They're talking about an Android: the HTC One. HTC's new flagship phone is due April 19 for $199 with a contract.
技术测评人士纷纷竖起大拇指,但他们夸的可不是苹果公司(Apple)的最新款手机,而是来自HTC(宏达电)的Android手机One。HTC这款全新主打产品将于4月19日面市,合约价为199美元。
By many, many, many, many accounts it is one the best phones ever made -- and possibly the model that is finally better than an iPhone. Take a close look at what they're are raving about.
很多测评者都表示,HTC One是迄今最棒的机型之一,而且可能超越了iPhone。看看这些测评者到底怎么说的吧。
Design
设计:金玉其外
HTC has wrapped the One in premium materials. No chintzy plastics here. Its case is carved from a single piece of aluminum. The phone, which is 0.36 inches thick and weighs about 5 ounces, is available in silver or black.
HITC的One 手机外部采用高档材料,而非廉价的塑料。它的外壳是由一整块铝精雕细琢而成。手机厚0.36英寸、重约5盎司(约142克),有银色、黑色两种颜色可选。
Impressive internals
配置:卓尔不凡
Inside, the phone features a Qualcomm (QCOM, Fortune 500) Snapdragon 600 Quad-Core processor running at 1.7 Ghz and 2 GBs of RAM, putting it on the high end of the Android spectrum. (Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S4 features the same processor running at a slightly faster speed.) Internal storage comes in at 32GB or 64GB. One knock: There's no SD card for storage expansion.
这款手机配置了高通(Qualcomm)骁龙600四核处理器,运行速度为1.7GHz,内存为2 GB,在一众Android手机中十分出众。【三星(Samsung)即将推出的Galaxy S4手机采用了同系列处理器,只不过运行速度稍快。】One将发售32GB和64GB两个版本。不过有一点不爽:没有SD卡,因此无法扩大存储量。
A gorgeous display
显示:光彩照人
The HTC One has a 4.7-inch screen at 1080p resolution, a.k.a. 1920x1080 pixels. That's pretty much standard in this class of phones, but it squeezes an impressive 468 pixels-per-inch -- more than the S4 or Apple's iPhone -- for crisper images and sharper text.
HTC One手机采用4.7英寸屏,分辨率为1080p,即1920x1080像素。虽然这在这个等级的手机中几乎是标配,但它屏幕每英寸像素数高达468——比Galaxy S4以及苹果iPhone还高,因而图像和文字都更加清晰。
Good sound
声音:绕梁三日
Like laptops, most smartphones don't normally come with great speakers. HTC's answer is so-called BoomSound dual stereo speakers. The name may be silly, but this Beats-designed setup sets the device apart. Crucially, the One's two speakers are on the front of the device, not the back or sides.
同平板电脑一样,大多数智能手机的扬声器通常都不怎么样。然而HTC One采用了所谓的BoomSound双立体声扬声器。虽然BoomSound这个名字有点傻,但这项由数字音响厂商Beats设计的功能令One手机卓尔不凡。最重要的是,它的两个扬声器都在手机的正面,而非背面或侧面。
There are some drawbacks
不足:白璧微瑕
The One runs Android Jelly Bean, Google's (GOOG, Fortune 500) latest, but HTC's own software, dubbed Sense 5.0, operates on top. It features a new type of home screen, Blinkfeed, that draws on content from social feeds like Facebook and Twitter. Some people love it, some people don't.
One搭载了谷歌(Google)Android最新版本——果冻豆,但HTC同时还搭载了自家软件Sense 5.0。这款手机采用了一种新的主屏幕类型——Blinkfeed,从Facebook和Twitter等社交网络上抽取内容。至于说这是好是坏,就见仁见智了。
And a so-so camera
摄像头:差强人意
The One packs a 4 megapixel camera, bucking the trend of cramming in increasingly more powerful cameras. (Samsung's S4 will feature a 13 megapixel camera by comparison). Instead, HTC says its camera is an "Ultrapixel" device, promising that the sensor pixels are twice as big as they are in most phone cameras. That means they gather more light, making for better low-light shots. In practice, resulting photos are a mixed bag.
HTC One手机仅配置了400万像素的摄像头,一反手机摄像头像素越来越高的潮流。(相比之下,三星Galaxy S4手机将采用1300万像素摄像头)。相反,HTC表示,它的摄像头是一款“超像素”装置,称其传感器像素是大多数手机摄像头的两倍。这意味着它们能更好的聚光,从而在微光情况下获得更好的拍摄效果。实际上,One手机摄像头拍摄的照片有好有坏。
