Z5 meter evaluation: still audio and video all-rounder

The Z5 in front of us is the latest product of this company. It is an upgraded version of the Z4 from the model, but the form is closer to the H1 series, and it added new games.

After using this product for a while, Sina Digital will tell you about its specific performance.

Extremely meter Z5

shape:

The Z5's body uses more metal and the lines are harder. Its two sides are deliberately exposed by a metal edge of 3mm thickness, two screws, and a vent that is made of a heat sink on the back. These designs play a decorative role and also have a heat dissipation function. Together they make the Z5's exterior look harder, and the noise within a meter with the internal dual fans is only 30db, reducing the impact on the viewing experience.

Hard design style

At the same time, in other design details, Z5 embodies more of a sense of technology.

The Z5 does not have a slide structure like the CC, but instead it is an electric structure. When you turn on the camera, the lens automatically opens, shuts down and shuts off automatically, preventing daily dust from completely eliminating manual intervention. This structure is not as sensational as the CC slider, but it is more convenient. We often say that science and technology do not disturb life, and that is probably the case.


Front lens automatic + electric

Another Z5 technology can reflect the feeling of the top of the fuselage sliding touchpad. There are 31 LEDs below that make up a light strip. It is very interesting when the finger slides on the volume to adjust the volume. At the same time, this translucent plastic plate also plays the role of the indicator light, such as flashing red when it is turned on.

Slide volume adjustment

Although the price difference with the flagship product H1S is more than a thousand yuan, the back interface is aligned with the flagship product, a USB 2.0, a USB 3.0, two HDMI, 3.5 headphone port, and SPDIF fiber port - meaning it can access the home Theater audio system; Wireless, still Airplay and DLNA; In addition to network 2.5/5GHz WiFi also has a wired interface. There is no pressure on the video on mobile phones. In this regard, the domestic TV box God has always been doing very well.

projection:

The Z5 uses a 0.45-inch DMD RGB-LED. The official nominal brightness is 1000 ANSI lumens. Its standard resolution is WXGA (1280×800) resolution and is compatible with 1080P/2K/4K resolutions.

From this we can see that the Z5 is a little bit worse than the flagship H1S (0.47 DMD, 1080P standard resolution, 1100 ANSI lumens), but it has almost doubled compared to the Z4X's 580 ANSI lumens.

Z5 working status

This brightness makes it sufficient for use during the day, but compared to conventional LCD TVs, the projector is still affected by the leveling of the wall or ambient light. This is a common problem with this type of product, but for 90% of users, Z5 It's good enough to do it. With a projection ratio of 1.2:1, a theoretical 100-inch screen can be cast at a height of 2.5 meters, making the effects of home theater very easy to create, and the cost is only 3,000 yuan (100-inch TV prices will exceed 100,000).

In order to project better picture quality, Z5 has added motion compensation to its products for the first time in addition to the brightness enhancement. This is an improvement of the algorithm. The effect will be reflected in movies like Speed ​​and Passion. Other enhancements are more subtle, such as HDR. This is the result of the Z5 MStar 6A838 chip, which can be understood as the Snapdragon 835 in the smart TV industry. Released at the end of last year, it is still the strongest chip in the smart TV field. The performance of the 6A938 chip is 86% higher than that of the previous generation 6A928. From this point of view, the Z5 has done better than the H1S.


The bottom itself does not have a bracket hole but can be expanded

The bottom of the Z5 itself does not join the bracket hole. In our evaluation machine, an X-shaped accessory is attached. After unscrewing the four corner screws, it can be mounted, so that the Z5 can be placed on the bracket. After trying the N-placement method, we felt that the ideal location was still on the nightstand, which was convenient for the volume operation or the opening of the Bluetooth speaker.

Another reason that can be put here is that the Z5 supports 45-degree four-way trapezoidal correction.

Keystone correction:

In the past, only about 10,000 yuan or so high-end projections had trapezoidal correction, and Miji put it on its own 3,000 yuan end product.

The most straightforward expression, with it, Z5 can project normally without facing the projection surface. In the official website of Zilmi, a picture can be clearly expressed:


Polar meter Z5 trapezoidal correction use scene

The Z5 correction angle is up to 45°. The first time you need to adjust it manually, the effect is very straightforward. Even if you move it later, you can adjust it quickly. Similar meter CCs with similar prices to the Z5 are also available, but only 30 degrees, compared with the Z5 more in line with this scenario of its leaflets.


Left and right trapezoidal correction process

We have also used some projectors with similar positioning for some other brands. Although it is called automatic trapezoidal adjustment, it is only limited to the upper and lower trapezoids. If your projector cannot be assembled forward (for the average family, it is basically a hoist or a bed. In the middle of the head, it was basically a tragedy. However, under this function, we do not recommend long-distance side-shooting, because the technology is far from the limit. Long-distance high-angle side of more than 3 meters will cause telephoto that is not as sharp as the other side.

Another very interesting feature is the "dual mode"

This feature comes from the very common "split screen mode" on Android phones. Although the Z5 has only one projection lens, this does not prevent it from splitting the screen in half. The effect is probably as follows:


Split screen function display

This function seems to be of little use in the use of the PPT presentation, but it avoids the situation where the family grabs the TV. Although it looks a bit weird... but it is better than nothing.

Ok said that some shortcomings, Z5's autofocus speed and we have not used the CC faster, this does not know will not be improved through the late software upgrades.

Speaker form:

The Mimics improved the addition of the Harman Kardon sound. This crossover has been played several times. This time the sound quality is still there and it can be used as a stand-alone Bluetooth speaker.

Let's talk about the audio parameters: 2.0-channel, two 5W 40-mm speakers. In the off state, long press the play button on the body will start the audio mode, the projector does not open, only as a Bluetooth speaker.


Turn off the phone and press the music key to turn on the Bluetooth mode

The two speakers are not high in terms of parameters, but the quality and adjustment are good. They are not as thin as the sound of a small Bluetooth speaker. The sound field is very wide and obvious and the elasticity is sufficient.

This means that even if it is not equipped with a home theater, the Z5's voice can meet the needs of the general living room to watch movies, and it is also good for a person to listen to music in silence.

This function is easy to be ridiculed, still is because the system limits, even if only uses the bluetooth speaker function, the projector fan will start, will have 30db the wind sound.

to sum up:

Z5's is an upgrade of the current product of the pole meter. Many parts of the function and price are inserted between the flagship H1S and the mid-range CC. It is also the pole meter in its own projector (the pole meter official is more willing to call it There is another continuation of all-in-one functionality on the product line without a screen TV.

Projection, TV box, Bluetooth speaker three-in-one, and three functions are also doing well, in the family entertainment scene, Z5 has done enough and it is good enough. Its opponent is not like nuts, but people's obsession with traditional LCD TVs.


From the perspective of product prices, Z5 and CC are close to each other, but the appearance and some functions have touched H1S upward again. Its appearance is similar to that of the two. The projection parameters and sound quality are in between, but the processor is currently the best in the most popular rice products, and half of the feet span before the flagship. From this we can also see the trend of the next generation of flagships.
