In the summer of 2016 , fans of fanatical football are doomed to be extraordinary. In addition to the upcoming European Cup, there will be the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games once again in four years after the 2012 London Olympics. As we all know, for friends who like sports events, they are keen to watch the exciting and intense events with the largest screen possible. In particular, large-scale events such as football are good feelings.
However, the reality is that most TV households will buy at most 60 inches to 100 inches on if you want, it is clear that moving the 7-8 million price or the average family can not afford, at the moment many of my friends would think of using projection products Instead.
Of course, the vast majority of high-end projectors currently project 100 -inch screens without pressure. However, they require a 2-3 meter hard index to pick up the home layout environment, plus a degree of limited brightness, which affects the daytime viewing experience. Or will be greatly reduced, and ultimately the use of high-tech laser ultra-short-focus projection products jumped into the field of vision, which comes from the domestic flagship New Zealand V8 screenless laser TV, regardless of the hardware configuration, or the actual visual perception The experience has brought about a superb shock performance. The author had the privilege of being the first to take advantage of the new Aiweiwei flagship, and then for everyone to fully demonstrate the powerful strength of this V8 screenless laser TV.
| Get to know the details
Firstly, from the thick kraft paper box, the Airov V8 packing box was presented in front of the eyes with a simple eye-catching red and black. In addition to the product name and the simple nameplate information, there was no exposure to the product's real picture, or even the renderings. This kind of simplicity and some mysterious vacancies may be for the sake of preserving the unknown suspense to give consumers more imagination.
Open the lid can see, very eye-catching accessory box placed in the sponge foam protective layer of nearly 6cm thick, and remove the product only to find, below the same thickness of the protective foam bottom, can be described as armed to teeth care, There is no longer any worry about violent express delivery of online shopping for valuables.
For the accessories are still rich, open the accessory box you can see, in addition to the regular manufacturers down the following mandatory instructions, warranty cards and the old three sets of certificates, but also includes a remote control board (with battery), 2.4G wireless receiver , Power cord, HDMI signal cable and a pocket pad adjustment tool.
The remote control board equipped with the 2.4G wireless signal transmission has a wide range of coverage and is also more stable. The functions of the remote controller are very rich, and the layout of the buttons is reasonable. Among the highlights are the ability to switch home TV set-top boxes at the same time, and the easy-to-use voice-on-demand feature is one of its features.
To say that the head of the Ai Luowei V8 is for projection products, the net weight of the 480364180mm three-dimensional size with 10KG does seem to be quite impressive . In terms of appearance design, the first impression on it feels very much like HTPC and benchtop amplifiers. The entire fuselage and frame brackets are made from aviation aluminum, which not only has solid material, but also looks more texture grade.
The front of the V8 's control area uses a whole mirror glass, on the left of which is the English brand LOGO of Ai Luowei and the DLP display technology supported by it, 1080P full HD output, 3D image, and built-in Hi-Fi hi - fi audio logo; The right side is a volume knob with a push-type switch. When the power is turned on, a reddish-breathing light effect will appear inside the knob, and when the V8 starts working, the light effect inside the knob will turn into a deep blue with a sense of technology. It is worth mentioning that there is a hidden screen on the left side of the knob. The current time and temperature will only be displayed after power on.
In terms of heat dissipation, it should be said that the Airov V8 has spared no effort. It can be seen through the large-area heat dissipation holes on both sides of the fuselage, especially the left air outlet is designed with three high-volume silent ball fans responsible for the extraction machine. Body heat. The metal mesh cover on the right side of the fuselage is a detachable clip-on design. It can also be cleaned and dust cleaned on a regular basis. It is very humanized. In addition, from the right side of the fuselage, it can be seen that there is also a focus slider and two USB 2.0 ports inside the aluminum heat sink.
After opening the right suction grille, you can see that there are two filters similar to the HEPA professional material that are cut off from the electromechanical equipment of the internal projection mirror group, effectively maximizing the separation of dust on the basis of ensuring the minimum airflow resistance. . After completely dismantling, the precise internal structure of the fuselage can be seen completely. Whether it is the cooling fan for the laser emitting module or the surplus internal space, it can effectively guarantee the heat dissipation.
At the bottom of the fuselage near the laser head, a grille heatsink is also designed. In addition, there is a product nameplate and a laser source warning sign on the bottom. Attention to the details will be found in the four corners of the frame bracket designed with a rubber mat with shock absorption and non-slip, not only that, the pad is designed to be lifted and lowered, not only can adjust the height of the table may be uneven adjustment through distribution. , but also for the projection screen vertical and horizontal fine-tuning correction.
The back of the Aiweiwei V8 interface looks quite complete, and it can meet the needs of all family's supporting equipment. First color difference signal output from a conventional support / components, wherein a set of 3 HDMI supports the MHL, furthermore comprising a USB 3.0 interface, serial data, VGA, 5.1-channel fiber interface and other readily available, network transmission support conventional RJ45 cable and 2.4 G/5G dual-band wireless, Bluetooth 4.0 is also indispensable, is completely sub-era luxury configuration.
Inside the top groove red frame is the lens of the V8 . The fully enclosed fixed focus lens design can ensure its safe and stable operation, without worrying about long-term observation of the possible phenomenon of heat scorching, in addition to effectively prevent dust Intrusion to extend the life of the machine. In particular, the Eloi- V8 uses an ultra-short-throw lens. The 100 -inch large screen is not limited by space. It requires only 24 cm from the back of the wall. The ultra-short focal distance can be considered as a small-sized user. Gospel. Another very intimate design is that the infrared sensor detection probe next to the lens, with the system's close eye protection function is innovative, the working principle is when the human body close to the machine will automatically reduce the brightness of the light source to touch the visible light of the human eye The safety value is especially suitable for children in the family.
| At the end of the hardware configuration
As a projection product, the focus that everyone generally pays attention to is the problem of projection brightness and sharpness. Therefore, since the Aiweiwei V8 is a high-end flagship, the natural hardware strength cannot be underestimated.
Using the laser light source, the Allovy V8 , with reference to the national standard of brightness, achieves an astonishing 3,500 ANSI lumens, with no fear of the influence of ambient light, a physical resolution of 1920×1080P full HD resolution, and compatibility with 4K resolution ultra-clear film source, it is worth mentioning that the laser light source color gamut up to 120%, 10.7 million color display can bring more realistic and delicate quality performance. In terms of the service life of the laser source, everyone has no fear of follow-up expenses. According to the official claim that the service life is more than 20,000 hours, even if you watch 5 hours a day, the conversion can be used for almost 11 years.
Because Ai Weiwei V8 uses an Android smart system, the core components that support its operation are worth sharing for you. First, the processor uses Mstar's current high-end ten-core MSD6A918 , and integrates the Mali-450 GPU , which perfectly supports H. The .265 hard solution naturally responds to 4K sources with no stress. In addition, with 2GB operating memory +16GB fuselage storage combination of programs to ensure the smooth operation of the system, and can install some common video software and games.
| System and Content Resources
The operating system of Aiweiwei V8 is based on Android 4.3 . The content is provided by CIBN (China International Radio and TV Network Station) to provide genuine video resources. Users who frequently use TV boxes or smart TVs should be familiar with CIBN and have formal authorization. The richness and frequency of film and television resources are still worthy of recognition.
In the initial use, Ai Luowei V8 's system will prompt the user to set up the TV set-top box. At present, almost all mainstream operators and set-top boxes can effectively support and bind the signal source, and then use the V8 remote controller. Live viewing of the live webcast is performed on the live section of the home screen. Of course, users who do not have a TV box at home can ignore it.
It should be said that the Aiweiwei V8 system interface is very intuitive and concise, the entire menu column is divided into five blocks, of which live, video, games and applications are online resources, and the final multimedia is for local storage of video, pictures and Music files are categorized in the form of file management for on-demand viewing by users.
As a re-introduced film and television resource, Ai Luowei relying on the advantages of genuine content source platform provided by CIBN with license qualification, can provide a wealth of video resources, and can be relatively timely update, is also very intuitive in terms of film and television classification According to the category and popularity of the enumeration, with support for voice-on-demand search function, convenient and very peace of mind. It is worth mentioning that if it is not satisfied with CIBN 's film and television resources, it can actually push and install third-party film and television software such as TV cats and rabbit videos through the mobile phone APP that will be mentioned later.
Compared to the tedious setup options of traditional projections, the system setup menu of the Airov V8 does look quite concise and does not require redundant pre-configuration. It is basically used. Among them, it is worth mentioning that the system supports power saving and timing settings, such as screen protection switches for eye protection functions, and standby bluetooth switches that turn the V8 into a HiFi speaker.
In addition, you can press the “ More†button on the remote control to activate the shortcut function of the virtual five-dimensional arrow keys on any menu interface. These include applications that can be quickly called, you can view or delete the recently run program, and you can also perform a key-off Screen, one-click acceleration, or one-key screen capture, and the virtual keyboard is a must-have shortcut for calling 3D functions.
| Screen shot performance
For the screen performance of the Ai Luowei V8 , the author has mentioned it before, and as the flagship laser TV, naturally has a lot of brightness in the brightness and quality performance, but the manufacturers of the 100 -inch special optical screen is still in distribution , so through the bottom of a set of natural light from the day, the night lighting environment and the impact of the environment does not affect the environment to share the real shot, as close to life as possible to show everyone an objective and true face of V8 .
As the most feared daytime projection products, "see light dead, " finally disappeared on the Airovy V8 , can fully appreciate the experience of the traditional TV experience at home, of course, when there is really direct sunlight into the room, then pull the curtain is still wise choice , I believe that even if you watch it on traditional TV, you will have scruples.
Â
There are still a few days before the European Cup is due to start. It is unavoidable to stay up late for the football fan’s carnival season, while the Elovi V8 watches in the room with the living room light set open, despite being restricted by the white wall. Strength, but still can bring clear and full color picture.
Â
It should be said that according to the present author's projection condition, the viewing environment without external light source interference can more prominently highlight the Ailuwe V8 's viewing experience, thanks to the wide color gamut and high contrast of the Ailuwei V8 , and the entire laser projection. The screen is not only rich in color levels, but also smooth transitions between light and dark details. Of course, the hue restoration accuracy is also very worthy of recognition.
| Features extension scene
If you simply think that the Airovy V8 can only be viewed as a traditional display medium for watching movies, it is obvious that it will be underestimated. After all, the visual impact of the big screen is quite obvious, and the playability of this laser TV is still quite good. The author's high here is only to get started, and more interesting ideas are left for everyone to dig.
First of all Ai Weiwei V8 in addition to smooth playback of ordinary 2D HD film source, while the system is to support Blu-ray 3D film source hard solution, and the format in addition to the common around 3D , up and down 3D , but also the ordinary 2D film source One-click conversion to 3D , with the shutter or polarized 3D glasses at home to experience the theater-like 3D scene shock visual perception.
Â
As a console game fan, even though there are many classic Android games that can be downloaded and played in the system of the Aiweiwei V8 , it is obviously more appealing to the super cool game immersiveness brought by the 100 -inch big screen, like the traditional TV. The HDMI connection method brings a totally different experience.
Â
In the author's selection of several competitive XBOX game masterpieces, the original worry that the game scene switching will cause delays and smears frequently is a matter of great concern, and the actual actual game experience is more unexpected, the entire game experience process did not find that can affect All kinds of discomfort in the game experience, smooth running, visual and audio effects are the greatest feelings of shock, and the scenes of light and shade rendering are in place. For the experience of using the Eloway V8 to experience the game, only the real experience can be good.
In addition, Ai Weiwei V8 also supports the " easy interaction " APP for smart phone-side control, through the same WiFi network binding, using the mobile phone can act as a remote control, touchpad and mouse control mode, but also The use of mobile voice-on-demand programming is really a lazy gospel.
At the same time, the Airovy V8 also supports the use of multi-screen interactive features to synchronize photos, videos, and music on the phone to large screens for sharing with family members. With the 5G- band WiFi network supported by the V8 , even pushing the high-definition home of the mobile phone via wireless Video playback does not have a delayed click.
In addition to the ultimate in visual enjoyment, the independent four-wheel drive ( 48W ) hi-fi equipped with the Allovy V8 is able to provide a quasi- HiFi -class listening experience without wasting power consumption, thanks to the optimization of HSD's Bluetooth audio purification technology. , Support to play when the machine is standby, so that V8 transformed into a professional Bluetooth audio.
The front end supports products with Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones, players, or tablets. The connection method is also very simple. The performance of the sound quality should be described in terms of surprises. Never think that the built-in four independent speaker units can bring a good three. Frequency performance, can not say that Scorpio, but no doubt its clear-cut high-frequency, full-bodied MF, and a strong sense of low-frequency is very clever integration, it is suitable for meditation to listen to a few songs.
Â
At the end of the day, for everyone's concern about laser projection, because of the concern that high-brightness brightness may be very high, after 3 hours of continuous playback, the authors are close to the projection lens light source area or a side air outlet, and the final measured temperature is In the acceptable range, the current temperature has gradually entered the rhythm of the summer, so that the controlled temperature of the fever can also make everyone feel at ease.
| Conclusion
In general, the Aiweiwei V8 is the flagship representative of the ultra-short-focus laser projection products. Although the market positioning tends to be high-end, it is a lot more tolerable than the traditional 100 -inch TVs, not to mention the loss of viewing experience. At the same time, the ease of mobility of the Airovy V8 , as well as the adaptability of the scene space does not pick the obvious advantages. The most critical thing is that during the daytime it is finally possible to view the normal viewing without losing the quality of the picture. And more interesting is that, as I press time, the official Jingdong 618 anniversary month while doing a generous half-price purchase activity, had nearly 50,000 Yi Luowei the V8 only 24,998 can buy, but is said to be limited oh .
