Which is more worth buying for pole rice Z4X and nut G1?

The projector, once a product of our 80s generation's hunger, the primary school still used a slide projector, and the most wanted lesson in high school was a multimedia class because it was able to feel the charm of the projector's big guy. At that time, the projectors were donated from other places. In half an hour in summer, it will automatically shut down due to high temperature. Until the university projector is still nothing to do with our civilian population. On the contrary, the interest in this product has decreased. Every time you look at it, you need to keep the windows closed. Moved little by little. It was also fast, and it took ten years to leave the school in an instant. With the rapid development of intelligent life, the projector, which was once loved and hated, has once again entered my life. However, this time it is a genuine civilian product.

However, in this era of extraordinary development, as long as there is demand in the market, then there will be a lot of entrepreneurs who will fight for it. There are many manufacturers of projectors for this product. There are many traditional old manufacturers and many rising stars. Then the most attention is the "intelligent projector." The two products that I brought today: Nut G1 and Polar Rice Z4X are two representative intelligent projector products. There are a lot of comments on the evaluation of these two products, but the author still hopes to see the truth. Use your own nearly a week of tossing to bring this contrast article. Mainly based on real feelings. I hope to give my friend who wants to buy a projector a direction.

The color matching of the two products is really a little bit interesting. Black and white match is not like a competitor, but it is more like a pair of lovers.

Both product boxes are packed in hard boxes, and the manufacturers deliver the second carton pack for each shipment. Therefore, the transport problem will not be too great and there is no need to worry about it. Accessories as shown above. Among the Z4X accessories, VIP cards and hard disk fixing screws are not available in the Nut G1. The nuts G1 accessories have a pair of 3D glasses and two remote controls. This is the first time the author has seen a match. Quite curious

Comparison of product details

Both products still have a good face value. The pole meter is more like the feeling of a film machine, while the nuts are mainly round, making it even more fashionable. To say who it is, the author may currently prefer some of the nuts of the metal panel G1.

The back of the product is still used in black and white with the Z4X meter. The main body is white, and the back cover is black. Open the revised version we can see the polar meter Z4X provides a hard disk expansion space. This is really true. Inadequate warnings indicate that using a mechanical hard disk will affect the lifespan. In the days when the price of SSDs is still high, I still choose external mechanical mobile hard disks. There is no hard disk expansion design on the back of the nut G1. However, he designed the fan cover to open, the advantage is that it can easily clean the dust of the cooling fan. From this point of view, the design of the Extreme Z4X should be more humane.

On the front side, the output of the front light source of the nut looks particularly awkward, and then it is always thought that the sheet metal plate under the lens can slide up and down, and the result is not. This design is so insignificant and woody. Although the meter Z4X did not see the lens all leaked. But fortunately, there is also a lens cover design, as the out of the portable, the Z4X lens cover is particularly important.

Both projectors have their own unique sound design. The Z4X uses a two-channel Harman Kardon speaker, which is personally tuned by its lead engineer Alan Michel, and works with Texas Instruments' zero-distortion digital amplifier in the sound quality. Resolving power, high and medium performance are excellent. Of course, this is located in the projector I had contacted before the meter Z4X projector, this product is absolutely very good sound quality. But after all, this is a mini-class speaker, limited by the caliber of the bell; it is indeed lost to the nut G1 in terms of sound brightness and bass performance; the nut G1 is symmetrically distributed with four small-caliber, long-stroke loudspeakers, erected vertically around the inner wall of the fuselage , Form a dual chamber, four-way speaker system. Although there is no such a big name as Z4X and Manhattan, the actual sound quality may not be as good as that of Ha Manhattan. However, the effect of four speakers is actually better than the effect of two horns. However, the main meter Z4X music playback, in the control of appreciation, control the music across the air, it touches it is very dreamy and full of sense of technology.

Extended performance comparisons;

The expansion ports of the two products are similar, and they are basically concentrated on the back. They include: wired network port, one USB3.0/2.0, AV input, audio output, and HDMI high-definition interface. However, the Z4X has one more HDMI port. The convenience of multi-terminal equipment is better. In addition to the previous hard disk expansion, the Z4X is better than the nut G1 in terms of expansion. One of the most unbearable ones is that the Nut G1 enters the identification of mobile hard disks that are not supported. I will Lenovo's mobile hard drive into the machine, can not recognize, feel like driving a mechanical hard drive. In order to eliminate the reason for the mobile hard disk, it is perfectly recognized and accessed on the Z4X. This is a very bad thing. You said that the whole interface to USB3.0, mobile hard drives but can not be driven, what do you want?

As mentioned earlier, the Nut G1 had two remote controls and it was a bit of a suspicion that it was the wrong rhythm. However, it is worth mentioning that the remote control of the Z4X uses a 2.4g wireless remote control and also supports a Bluetooth remote control; the Nut G1 cylinder remote control is a Bluetooth connection. The other remote controller for the Nut G1 is infrared. The cylindrical remote control of the Nut G1 is still very cool, and the design is quite good. It can be described with a sense of technology and is very coordinated with the G1 host. However, in use, the operation of the remote control bar is not particularly sensitive, and long-time operation is not as fast as physical buttons. If it is not for that value, I'm still willing to use some of the traditional remote control to operate. So the existence of a common remote controller for nuts is not unreasonable. However, the infrared remote controller must be aligned with the receiving port to provide feedback. Therefore, in actual experience, the Mi Z4X 2.4G wireless remote controller also outperforms the nut infrared remote controller.

Standby, work energy consumption contrast;

In promoting energy conservation and environmental protection today, the energy consumption of an electrical product is still very necessary to know, at least when the author's home refrigerator once every two days to be a small power, the heart is still very sorry not to buy energy-saving products. The standby power of these two projectors is not too high. The Z4X standby power consumption is 1.2W; while the nut G1 standby power consumption is double that of the Z4X. The most obvious stand-by is to feel the nut G1 has excess heat. This point I still feel very unhappy.

The load power is 43.2W for the pole Z4X and 51.5W for the nut G1. Still higher than close to 8W; Although 8W is not regarded as a big gap, but the cumulative effect is still not a small amount of consumption, the reason is that it has a certain relationship with the nut G1 four speaker interface.

Cooling fan noise comparison;

The projector is a product that displays pictures by light, so the accompanying heat must not be ignored. The essential part of the projector product is the cooling system. Generally used is the physical cooling of the fan. Inevitably there will be noise. The two devices are turned on at the same time; the ambient noise is about 38 decibels, and it is difficult to reach an absolute environment without a fully enclosed site. To display the contrast more intuitively, we directly selected the outlet for testing. The author is testing in an environment where everyone lives; the author's most intuitive experience is that the fan sound of the Nut G1 affects the author's mood. 61.3 decibels, it is a relatively frequent annoyance at quiet night. Extremely good Z4X 55.5 decibels, when the dead of night is not small. However, it is still clearly superior to the nut G1. To know that more than 60 decibels has already belonged to the third-class noise.

Heat test comparison;

Perhaps the reason for high power is that it plays continuously for two hours. Room temperature is around 26 degrees Celsius. The heat output of the nut G1 is 5 degrees higher than that of the Z4X. Extremely cool projector products are really reassuring. This point is verified in the comparison here. However, compared with many traditional products, the performance of the two products is still quite good.

Recent screen shot distances and corrections;

Both products only support up and down gradient corrections, while high-end projectors support left and right gradient corrections. Obviously, these two products do not have left or right corrections. In terms of degree of correction, the Z4X supports a range of ±50, and has a larger adjustable range than the nut G1.

Display color reproduction and sharpness contrast;

Adjust the brightness of both products to the highest, the color default state. The upper half is the nut G1 in the lower half of the polar rice Z4X; In the degree of color reproduction, the performance of polar rice is relatively strong, and the performance of nuts G1 is relatively pale. The color has a noticeable whitening effect.

In the color contrast, the performance of the nut G1 is not ideal, so the brightness is reduced, the contrast is improved, there are improvements, but the brightness is significantly reduced.

Brightness Z4X naked eye can obviously feel the difference. The center illuminance of the two shows that the center illuminance of Z4X is 325.5 Lx; the nut G1 is 240.1 Lx; the meter Z4X is much stronger than the nut G1. (Light intensity is a physical term referring to the luminous flux of visible light received per unit area. It is referred to as illuminance, Lux or Lx. It is used to indicate the intensity of illumination and the amount by which the surface area of ​​an object is illuminated.)

Real shot landscape comparison:

In the past, due to the inaccurate color reproduction of the display effect, the color of the nut G1 was found to be very inaccurate in comparison with the actual scenery. The blue reduction is terrible. On the left is the polar meter Z4X on the right side of the original picture, and the nut G1 is shown in the following figure; the order of the following figure remains unchanged.

In a few groups of different colors, the effect of the sample can obviously feel that the Z4X color is a little bit cold. It is necessary to explain that the style of the camera is cold, and the color is actually a little bit warmer. The performance of the Nut G1, which is considered to be the camera's cool white balance, is still unsatisfactory with the color reproduction error. Warmer and more serious. This man is a bit skeptical that he has not gotten a problem with the nuts G1.

Run sub-performance and 4K video playback performance comparison;

The Nut G1 is equipped with a Mstar 918 quad-core 1.5G TV-grade chip; and it uses a high-brightness, low-power Osram LED light source to provide a brightness environment of up to 1500 lumens and a lifetime of up to 30,000 hours. . Z4X adopts MStar's latest top TV chip, which is equipped with ultra-sharp micro-step electric focus, can quickly lock the focus; equipped with a transmission speed of up to 5Gbps USB 3.0, 802.11ac WiFi connection rate up to 867Mbpsd, whether it is local video or online playback are even more Smooth. In the Run Rabbit TV version can see the extreme Z4X slightly better than the nut G1.

In the video playback format, Mimi supports 26 formats. Nut G1 has two formats that are not supported. Incomplete support formats are four. This difference, in the actual experience of the nut G1 play 4K film source will appear when the Karton, and extremely Z4X meter performance is relatively smooth.

System experience comparison:

The main reason why two products can all be called smart projectors is that they are based on Android smart system development with a deep optimization system. And the best way to get a rich source now and not to sue lawsuits is to collaborate with media video platforms. The contents of the nut G1 are all video content from iQIYI. The content of Z4X is from Mango TV.

From the interface operation, the author's first impression is that the nuts G1 page is too complex, not concise, for example, I want to enter the setting, from the home page part at least have to go through 7 steps to move to the settings. The interface of the pole meter is much simpler, and the homepage classifies the content and finds it very well. The contents of Nut G1 are very numerous, but they are very complicated.

When connected to the network, it was found that the nut G1 could not search for 5G WiFi signals. This resulted in the nut G1 being unable to keep up with the speed of the download. Caton phenomenon often occurs.

Thanks to iQIYI's media library, the source of nut G1 in 3D resources is more than Z4X. However, we can turn 3D at the time of 2D. This does not seem to matter. However, it is worth mentioning that the content of iQiyi is really more than Mango TV.

The next step was advertising. Nuts G1 was a nauseating author. Watch a TV show for every minute to put a minute's worth of advertisements. Decisively downloading a third-party APP, fortunately, the nut G1 has not been restricted by the radio and TV U disk shield APP. APP can easily copy dark, and Z4X has hidden the U disk APP. Hateful radio and television. However, there is also a way for Miji to retire APP, which is the Mi Mi Assistant. Most people I will not tell her. With regard to its own resources, the advertisement of the Nut G1 has already been unable to endure. The polar meter Z4X can tolerate about 15 seconds or so. However, Miji's killer was a mango TV member card that was presented for one year and said goodbye to advertisements. Really want to talk with nuts and iQiyi, your home advertising is so long, advertising costs should not subsidize hardware?

Contrast summary:

The space was a bit long and it was finally at the comment stage. Let's talk about their respective advantages:

Nut G1 Review:

Yan value absolutely play, whether you put on the coffee table or the TV cabinet will be a good decoration. Rich accessories, the price of 2699 yuan is not outrageous. The brightness of 1500 lumens is not much different from the 2000 lumens of the Z4X. It is still not possible to watch the film source under strong light. Nothing can be said about fittings and workmanship. On the video, the bass sound and volume of the audio amplifier are the advantages of the nut G1. Small super-pole meter Z4X. In the musical experience, Harman Kardon's audio units are weaker than the meters in the middle and high frequencies. But in the color reproduction of the true expression of the general. Some pictures can be described as bad. Mainly lost in the following points: 1, does not support mobile hard disk; 2, projection brightness and color reduction is less than Z4X; 3, television broadcast advertisements playing time is too long; 4, does not support 5G WiFi;

Polar Rice Z4X Review:

The value of this product is also good, very much in line with the modern home environment. The price of 2,699 yuan is still OK. After all, your 300-inch screen in your living room feels like the average TV does not come. Hamann's audio is limited by its size, and there are some gaps in the volume of the Nut G1's 4 speakers. However, the rational point of view is much better than the sound of ordinary projection equipment. The advantage of Z4X lies in the sound quality of music playback. From the point of view of the ability to display color reproduction, I use the spike G1, will there be absolute users of the Internet? To care for it, the author got the nut G1 on hand to restore the color is really a lot of poor Z4X it. In terms of heat, energy consumption, and noise, they must lose to the Z4X.

Overview:

Both products are counted as proud items. The nut G1 showed a good sound experience during the viewing and the Z4X performed well on the screen. If they are harsh, they all have their own flaws. But carefully considering the next projector, personally think that the importance of the restoration of the picture is more important than the audio enjoyment. Extreme Z4X will be more attractive. Basic evaluation to this. The author of the evaluation direction said that as for how to choose is an objective thing for you. If you are a high-end user is not worse than the two money, I would rather think that no rice screen TV H1 and nut X1 will be more comprehensive performance. If you have the opportunity to make two high-end products and make a comparison
