This time we hands-on comparison is Huawei Mate60 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro, the former is Huawei's latest domestic self-research of various technological breakthroughs, while the industrial design is also quite outstanding, the latter applies the current advanced chip manufacturing process at the same time took the lead in the production of titanium alloy bezel on the cell phone products.
So, we can say that both models are the pinnacle of flagship phones today. However, it is obvious that these two models have considerable differences in both configuration and usage experience.
First look at the appearance, put the two models together, the most intuitive feeling is that the design style has a big difference. The back of the Huawei Mate60 Pro adopts a breakthrough "concentric" design, while the Huawei Mate series of iconic "star ring" design is no longer confined to the camera itself, but from the inside to the outside burst out, and the combined efforts to break through the inherent thinking! It expands to the waist of the back cover, leaving an elegant arc that symbolizes a new breakthrough.
This time, we got our hands on the Yachuan Green color, and the ultra-reliable Xuanwu architecture adopted by the entire machine, combining ultra-resistant second-generation Kunlun glass, ultra-tough Xuanwu body and ultra-durable Jinfibre material, to protect every side.
The iPhone 15 Pro inherits the classic design language of the iPhone series models as a whole, the rear camera module is placed in the upper left corner of the back of the body, the back of the body is made of matte textured glass back plate material, the frame is made of aerospace-grade titanium that is featured in the new machine, and the front part of the interface between the screen and the frame adopts a curved edge design, which brings a more comfortable sense of grip.
After actual hands-on experience, we found that the Huawei Mate60 Pro with a curved frame feels better than the iPhone 15 Pro with a curved screen, and the aluminum frame of the Huawei Mate60 Pro is not prone to fingerprint staining, while the titanium frame of the iPhone 15 Pro is prone to fingerprint staining, especially on the blue version. This is especially noticeable on the blue version we've got our hands on. Although the iPhone 15 Pro's bezel is easy to clean from fingerprints, it's still an inconvenience for everyday use.
In terms of the front screen, Huawei Mate60 Pro adopts an equal-depth quad-curved screen design, with the same curvature on all four sides of the screen, which takes into account the feel of the grip and the screen display effect, while the screen itself is covered with the second-generation Kunlun glass for protection.
The front screen of the iPhone 15 Pro benefits from a process upgrade that has reduced the black edge between its bezel and screen, while continuing to use the Super Porcelain Crystal panel for coverage and protection.
Let's talk about the signal problem we all care about, Huawei as the world's leading communications manufacturer, its Huawei Mate series of cell phones in the signal performance can be said to have a good reputation, and the performance of the iPhone phone well, it can be said to understand all understand.
We conducted a network rate test in the underground garage, also in the Unicom 5G network environment, Huawei Mate 60 Pro measured download rate of 29.3Mbps, upload rate of 1.12 Mbps, iPhone 15 Pro measured download rate of 17.2Mbps, upload rate of 0.83Mbps, Huawei Mate 60 Pro performance can be said to be far ahead. Who is better?
For smartphones nowadays, in addition to the traditional cellular network communication ability, satellite communication ability is also important. Huawei Mate 60 Pro as a mobile satellite terminal its current domestic support for SkyTone satellite phone function, while the iPhone 15 Pro although support satellite messaging function, but the function can not be used in the country.
We also tested the satellite phone function of Huawei Mate 60 Pro, the use of this function requires the phone to install a telecom SIM card and open the China Telecom's Tiantong satellite package, and then we can make satellite calls.
Imaging is the topic that flagship phones can't get around nowadays, and as two Pro-level models, the iPhone 15 Pro and Huawei Mate 60 Pro both have good image configurations. However, we will not talk about the parameters today, but only look at the actual imaging performance.
First of all, in the main camera comparison session, we used the two phones to shoot comparison samples in different scenes. We can see that the imaging performance of these two models are quite good, the iPhone 15 Pro imaging style is natural but slightly bland, while the Huawei Mate 60 Pro has a distinctive character under the Huawei XMAGE shadow, more pleasing to the user's eye.
At the same time, thanks to the F1.4 large aperture and Huawei's night scene algorithm accumulated over the years, Huawei Mate 60 Pro has a clear advantage over the iPhone 15 Pro in terms of night scene imaging performance.
The main camera of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro also supports 10-step variable aperture adjustment, and with the professional mode allows users to freely control the relationship between reality and virtual reality according to their own needs when shooting portraits and still lifes, which is a shooting experience more in line with the use of professional photographers' habits.
The iPhone 15 Pro supports the recording of depth information to achieve focus changes in the post-process, but its main camera aperture is only F1.78 and there is no native professional photography mode, it is difficult to meet the needs of the current professional photographer's portrait shooting.
In addition, through comparison, we can also intuitively find that the main camera of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro takes more clear and natural portrait photos, while the iPhone 15 Pro is clear but still with some sharpening effect.
In the ultra-wide-angle lens shooting comparison, we can see that the performance of both models are very good, but in the Huawei XMAGE Shadow Tone Huawei Mate 60 Pro ultra-wide-angle lens imaging samples look more stunning.
In terms of telephoto lens comparison, Huawei Mate 60 Pro is equipped with a 95mm focal length of 48 megapixels ultra-macro telephoto lens, 3.5x optical zoom 100x digital zoom. The iPhone 15 Pro, on the other hand, is a 12-megapixel upright telephoto lens with a 77mm focal length, supporting 3x optical zoom and 15x digital zoom. So the comparison samples we took will have some difference in the images.
Let's look at the daytime performance of the two machines. Although it looks like the imaging performance of the two models is similar, when zoomed in we can see that the Mate 60 Pro has better imaging clarity thanks to its 48-megapixel sensor. In addition, the Huawei Mate 60 Pro also supports the telephoto macro function, which can bring a more creative shooting experience.
Charging and battery life we also tested separately, after the actual test in the use of the original Huawei 88W super fast charging, Huawei Mate 60 Pro 30 minutes can be charged to 98% of the power.
The iPhone 15 Pro with 65W PD fast charging and the original charging cable combination can open up to 27W fast charging, 30 minutes can be charged to 61% of the battery. It's safe to say that the Huawei Mate 60 Pro comes out ahead in this charging comparison. We also tested the battery life performance of the two phones under a 5-hour heavy battery life model.
To briefly summarize, the iPhone 15 Pro and Huawei Mate60 Pro as this year's flagship phone both have the current top user experience, are excellent flagship phone, but we can also find through the experience comparison Huawei Mate60 Pro more focus on the actual user experience, rather than parameters and score victory.
Huawei also did through a variety of self-research core technology to solve the user in the actual use of the process of the pain points, to bring users a really good smartphone products, rather than expensive "electronic crafts".
