The VR head-up display device on the market has been regarded as a dazzling array, but it is nothing more than three forms. One is the mobile VR glasses. It needs to be used with a mobile phone. The advantage is that the price is cheap, but the loading and unloading is troublesome. The software must be compatible with different sizes. The result is that the experience is not good; there is a high-end PC head display, which needs to be connected to a PC host. Although the experience is best but the price is high, the existence of the connection line also limits the operation. The Big Brother VR machine introduced this time is the third product between the mobile phone VR and the PC VR. The VR machine integrates the hardware of the mobile phone in the VR glasses and customizes the exclusive UI and related sensors. The mobile phone VR is more adaptable. Compared with the PC VR, the price is lower and there is no connection line. The price of several thousand yuan makes it become a mid-range product in the VR headline, filling the gap in the market.
Unpacking and appearance
Big friends VR one machine's packaging volume is bigger, looks very much weight, appearance is a typical white simple style of technology products.
After unpacking the box, you can see the mainframe. Headbands, cables, and other accessories are stored in three accessory boxes.
The accessories inside the package are still quite abundant. In addition to the host, there is also a spare face foam, two headbands, a micro-USB data cable, a power cable, a charger, a pair of headphones, lens cleaning cloth, cleaning Agents, manuals and warranty cards, with complimentary accessories.
Dafen VR one machine adopts integrated body design. For weight, plastic material is used instead of metal, but the surface is also frosted, which makes the appearance quite texture.
The built-in LED light on the front of the host is the crowning touch to the appearance. The sci-fi sense is full. According to different operating conditions, the color of the lamp will change. When the lamp is running, the blue light will be on. The power will be less than the red light. When charging, the light will be yellow. , charging is green.
After the headband is installed, the elasticity can be adjusted on the rear side and the top of the head. The weight of the body is 435g. Since the headband disperses a part of the force, the wearing comfort is good.
The left side of the fuselage is the power button and cooling fan opening. The switch needs to press the power button for a long time, and short press it to close/open the screen. Thanks to the cooling fan, it won't feel hot for a long time, but it's best not to try it in the summer without air conditioning. In addition, when the fan is working, the noise is high. I think this is why the standard headphones are the reason for in-ear style.
The right side of the fuselage is the main operating function area. Unlike general VR glasses that require handle operation, the Big Brother VR machine can directly complete all operations. The top is the return key, the volume is increased, the volume is reduced, the bottom is the touchpad, the short press is OK, and the effect of scrolling or page turning can also be reached.
The top of the fuselage has a focal length adjustment knob to support 0-600 degrees of myopic people to use, theoretically does not support the operation of wearing glasses, but according to the actual test of the small series if the glasses are smaller, then it can be stuffed into. Pupil distance PDA MFP is adaptive adjustment to support 54-74mm interpupillary distance.
The bottom of the fuselage has TF card slot, power connector, micro-USB interface and headphone jack.
Dafen VR one machine uses a black elastic sponge mask, the screen part uses a 5.7-inch Samsung AMOLED screen, resolution of 2560x1440 (single eye 1280x1440). There is a light and distance sensor on the left side of the screen. When taking off the all-in-one, it can automatically turn off the screen to save power.
specification
The most important aspect of VR is the optical quality. After all, if you do not see clearly, immersion will not be possible. At this point, the Big Brother VR is very good. It uses a 5.7-inch Samsung AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2560x1440, a refresh rate of more than 60Hz, a delay of only 19ms, an angle of field of view of 96 degrees, and an asymmetrical non-spherical PMMA lens. The perception is unmatched by the mobile phone VR. Thanks to the low latency, even if you turn the all-in-one machine quickly, you cannot see the phenomenon of smearing. Of course, there are also some inadequacies, mainly the screen grainy sense is more obvious, but this is also a common problem of all current VR devices, including Oculus and HTC is also true, before the hardware resolution reaches 4K, this problem has no good solution .
Performance, Dafen VR one machine can be described as built-in a Samsung S6, Exynos 7420 processor is the absolute flagship last year, even if you get today to play mainstream large-scale 3D mobile games there is no problem, it guarantees that the big brother VR machine Operational fluency.
system interface
Dafen VR one machine adopts a VR OS system based on Android's deep customization. The operation uses the buttons on the side to complete the operation. The object selection method is a more ingenious way of “targetingâ€, and there is a front sight in the middle of the screen. It will follow the rotation of the head to aim, and then touch the side of the touchpad to determine the choice.
After entering the system, Xiao Bian found himself in an ultra-luxury villa and looked around. He could feel the feeling of being a local tyrant. The desktop is a fixed three-screen design. By sliding the touchpad to switch, the default screen is featured content, including popular games and videos. The negative screen is setup and management, and the right screen is the resource list. There is a calibration button below the interface. After clicking, you can customize the front position.
One screen has a personal center, system settings, and three pieces of local files. Below each piece of content are cache management, version upgrade, and SD card shortcuts.
In the personal center, you can view the cached video, history, and view the contents of the collection. A device code is provided in the account, which can be bound with the 3D broadcast APP connection on the mobile phone to implement the content fly screen.
System settings can now be connected to WiFi and Bluetooth and brightness adjustments, the system fixed five brightness adjustable, for eye protection and power conservation considerations, moderate medium brightness is enough. In the "us" option, you can view hardware parameters and perform system upgrades.
The local file function, as the name suggests, is to view the resources in the downloaded or SD card content, including video and software installation packages. The user can download the third-party Android software, connect the computer and place it in the Download folder, but not all The third-party software can be installed normally, or it is the most convenient and quick to use the applications provided in the market.
The default screen is featured content, and you can also quickly view history and my apps.
The right screen is mainly a resource download function, providing panoramic rankings, television rankings, and game rankings. On the content, Da Peng has already possessed over 10,000 genuine movies and TV titles from over China TV, over one hundred of customized games, and can also obtain unlimited video resources by downloading third-party video apps such as iQIYI, Youku and LeTV.
The App Store looks more like a game store. Classifications are also categorized according to game types. Most applications are located in the last category of sharing. Xiao Bian thinks that apps and games should be displayed separately and easy to find.
In general, the big friend VR OS has the advantages of convenient operation, clear logic, high system fluency, and good experience.
Content experience
Dafen VR machine's resources are mainly divided into ordinary video, panoramic video and game three types. There are more than a dozen games, iQiyi App, and VR browser built into the system.
The playback of ordinary video is similar to watching a giant screen movie. A huge curved screen is right in front of your eyes, as if you are in the best viewing position of a movie theater, giving people a strong visual impact. Dafen VR one machine is compatible with 2D, 3D, panoramic and other formats, and the hardware and software decoding are switched automatically. It is also possible to freely adjust the distance of the screen.
The panoramic video is to place the user in the video content, bringing the user to an immersive experience. The immersive feeling is super strong, but due to the high production difficulty, the big friend is relatively lacking in the panoramic content, and the resolution is generally not high.
The game is a long-running and relatively advantageous content. Da Peng cooperates with many local game developers. The built-in games have a big friend logo at the beginning and they do a better job in fitting. The game application market is divided into shooting, adventure, strategy, and leisure. The total number has exceeded 100. Xiaobian experience of this built-in game "zombie hunter" playability is very high, the operation method is "head aiming + touchpad" method, the game texture is more detailed, rich levels, immersive feeling stronger.
Another "Shironeko VR Project" that impresses Xiao Bian is a Japanese cartoon rendering style ARPG game. It needs to be operated with a Bluetooth controller. The game has a variety of characters and it is gorgeous. The tactics and animation effects as well as many big-name vocalists are one of the few VR games for deep experience.
Seeing the above screenshots must be very familiar to everyone, in addition to having more than a hundred games in the application market, there are many enthusiastic users sharing third-party transplant content in the forum, as shown in the classic FC arcade game, Can be described as a generation of childhood classics. The actual experience of the game is very smooth, and it does not become stagnant and delayed because it is a transplant game. The operation also requires the use of Bluetooth handles. With the third-party porting content, the richness of the contents of the Big Brother VR resources is greatly enhanced.
Big friends built iQiyi app, use big friends VR one machine to see the old nine, feeling closer to the Lord Buddha ~ In addition to iQIYI, in the application store sharing category Youku, LeTV and many other third-party video APP can Downloading, using big friends and chasing plays is absolutely not a thing.
Life and charge
As a VR all-in-one, the longevity of the VR machine largely determines its practicality. Dafen VR integrated machine built-in 3000mAh lithium-ion polymer battery, the official declared life time is about 3 hours. In the actual experience, the local video consumes 17% of the electricity for 30 minutes under 40% brightness, and it is estimated that it can reach the life of about 3 hours, which is in line with the promotion of the official website. This battery life is not too short. If you plan to use it for a long time to watch videos, you can sit and plug in the power supply. However, there are no games that need to be experienced for hours in depth because the game is more prone to motion sickness. Most users also do not play for so long.
Charging time Dabiao VR one machine comes standard with 5V/2A charger, charging time is about two hours or so in the off state.
to sum up
Dafen VR one machine has a cool appearance, convenient operation, and excellent performance. The key content adaptability is powerful and the resources are quite rich. It is one of the most mature products in domestic VR-one machine, worthy of VR experience and love. Early adopters try. The official price of Da Peng's VR-one is RMB 2,999, while the Samsung S6 with the same configuration plus the gear VR needs more than RMB 4,000. Before the big brother VR machine is still in need of buying status, the current official website and e-commerce are already on the spot, it seems that the supply chain has been resolved, and interested friends may wish to buy fresh taste.
