TP-Link 是一家以其制造的网络设备而闻名的公司。但是，它们也出现在智能手机市场上(smartphone market)，并且他们最近推出了一系列新的智能手机：Neffos X1 和 Neffos X1 Max(Neffos X1 and Neffos X1 Max)。在过去一周左右的时间里，我们测试了Neffos X1，今天(Neffos X1 and today)，我们想分享我们对这款智能手机的看法。Neffos X1(Neffos X1)是一个不错的选择吗？在一个充斥着负担得起的智能手机的市场中，它必须提供什么？阅读此评论并了解：
硬件(Hardware)规格和包装
TP-Link Neffos X1采用优质纸板(quality cardboard)制成的精美盒子。它是一个方形盒子，上面有一个小的浮雕圆点图案和一个由细刻线制成的大 X。Neffos X1 的名称(Neffos X1 name)印在盒子的顶部。
在包装的背面，您会发现一个贴纸，上面有关于里面智能手机的信息。您会看到Neffos X1的确切(Neffos X1)型号名称(model name)、屏幕大小和支持的移动网络等信息。在包装盒内，您会找到智能手机、充电器(power charger)和可拆卸的微型USB 数据线(USB cable)、一副耳机、文档和保修卡(warranty card)。
TP-Link Neffos X1 智能手机(TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone)有两种不同的颜色可供选择：多云灰和日出金(Cloudy Gray and Sunrise Gold)。我们测试的模型是Cloudy Gray 变体(Cloudy Gray variant)，这是一种适合大多数用户的颜色选项。(color option)
Neffos X1 智能手机(Neffos X1 smartphone)的屏幕为 5 英寸，高清分辨率(HD resolution)为 1280 x 720 像素，每英寸像素密度(inch density)为 293.7 PPI。该显示器采用IPS，这意味着它的视角很宽，色彩还原(color reproduction)应该非常好。显示屏覆盖有 2.5D 玻璃，可防止划痕和灰尘。2.5D意味着玻璃没有硬边，而是逐渐淡入表壳中。
如果您对其内部硬件感到好奇，TP-Link Neffos X1由(TP-Link Neffos X1)联发科的(MediaTek)Helio P10 八核(Helio P10 octa-core)处理器提供动力。该处理器有 4 个以 1.8GHz 运行的内核和 4 个以 1GHz 运行的内核（MT6755M 4 * Cortex-A53 1.8GHz + 4* Cortex-A53 1.0GHz）。图形由运行在 550MHz的 Mali-T860MP2视频芯片处理。(video chip)
TP-Link根据RAM 内存和存储空间的大小生产两种(RAM memory and storage space)Neffos X1 智能手机(Neffos X1 smartphone)。您可以获得 2GB RAM 内存(RAM memory)和 16GB存储空间(storage space)，或者 3GB RAM 内存(RAM memory)和 32GB 内部存储空间(storage space)。无论(Regardless)您拥有何种版本，您都可以使用最大 128GB 的 microSD 卡扩展内部存储空间。(storage space)我们测试的Neffos X1 智能手机配备 2GB (Neffos X1 smartphone)RAM 内存(RAM memory)和 16GB ROM（存储）内存。
TP-Link Neffos X1的后置摄像头由索尼 IMX 258(Sony IMX 258)传感器供电，最大分辨率为 13 兆像素，f2.0 光圈和 0.2s相位检测自动对焦(phase-detection autofocus)。在正面，您会得到一个具有 5 兆像素和美化效果的自拍相机。(selfie camera)
至于连接选项，TP-Link Neffos X1带有一个微型 USB 2.0(micro USB 2.0)端口、一个 3.5毫米音频插孔(mm audio jack)、一个蓝牙 4.1(Bluetooth 4.1)芯片和一个能够连接到 2.4 GHz和 5 GHz Wi-Fi网络的无线网卡(wireless network card)使用 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless标准。它不支持现代 802.11ac 标准。
TP-Link Neffos X1 智能手机(TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone)是双SIM 卡设备(SIM device)，在双卡双待(Dual SIM Dual Standby)模式下，两张SIM 卡(SIM card)均支持 2G/3G WCDMA/4G LTE。这意味着即使两张SIM 卡(SIM card)在您不使用时都处于活动状态，一旦您在其中一个上接听电话，另一个就会变为非活动状态。而且，如果你在智能手机上添加一张 microSD 卡来增加它的存储空间(storage space)，你应该知道它会占用第二张SIM 卡(SIM card)的插槽——这意味着你将无法在智能手机上使用两张SIM 卡(SIM card). TP-Link Neffos(TP-Link Neffos X1) X1利用各种传感器。它的背面有一个加速度计、一个指南针、一个接近传感器(proximity sensor)、一个环境光传感器(ambient light sensor)和一个指纹扫描仪(fingerprint scanner)。
TP-Link 为(TP-Link)他们的Neffos X1 智能手机(Neffos X1 smartphone)配备了 2250mAh 电池，应该可以帮助它完成一整天的使用。我们将在本次审查的稍后部分看看这是否属实。
至于尺寸，Neffos X1的高度为 5.6 英寸（142 毫米），宽度为 2.8 英寸（71 毫米），深度为 0.31 英寸（7.95 毫米）。它重 4.76 盎司或 135 克。
如果您想查看这款智能手机的所有官方规格，请访问此页面：TP-Link Neffos X1 规格(TP-Link Neffos X1 Specifications)。
虽然它是一款入门级Android 智能手机(Android smartphone)，但TP-Link Neffos X1采用高级包装，包括强大到足以提供良好用户体验(user experience)的硬件。
设计和建造质量
虽然它是一款价格实惠的智能手机，但TP-Link Neffos X1 智能手机(TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone)看起来像是一款高端设备。首先(First)，这是一款带有金属一体成型外壳(metal unibody case)的智能手机，对于这个价格标签(price tag)来说是相当令人印象深刻的。我们还回顾了之前的TP-Link Neffos C5 智能手机(TP-Link Neffos C5 smartphone)，虽然它们都是价格实惠的设备，但Neffos X1在设计和制造质量方面处于另一个联盟。
Neffos X1的顶部以 5英寸显示屏(inch display)为主。它不是全高清(Full HD)，因为它的分辨率只有 1280 x 720 像素，但显示器的优点在于它具有高亮度(brightness level)，即使在明亮的光线下也能在户外轻松使用。
在屏幕底部，您会找到三个默认的Android按钮：返回、主页(Back, Home)和最近使用的应用程序(Recent apps)。通常，这些按钮没什么好说的。但是，就Neffos X1 而言(Neffos X1)，有一些功能值得一提。首先(First)，它们都是电容式的，这意味着它们都与屏幕分开。其次，TP-Link没有以默认的Android 方式(Android way)放置它们：Neffos X1没有从左到右的Back、Home和Recent 应用程序，而是有(Recent apps)最近的应用程序、Home(Recent apps, Home)和Back， 从左到右。这本身不是问题，但是您需要一段时间才能习惯这种安排。第三，没有一个按钮是背光的，这使得它们在夜间更难被发现。
移动到智能手机的背面，您会发现一个朴素的表面，仅被相机镜头、双 LED 闪光灯和指纹扫描仪(fingerprint scanner)打断。只要我们在测试这款智能手机，指纹扫描仪(fingerprint scanner)的表现就非常好。虽然它偶尔会误读你的指纹，但总的来说它会很快识别出来。
Neffos X1的背面和屏幕上的 2.5D 玻璃都逐渐淡入边缘，不留硬点。
任何智能手机上的其他重要按钮——电源按钮(power button)和音量(volume rocker)键——都位于Neffos X1的右侧，朝向顶部。电源按钮(power button)的质感比其他按钮更粗犷，即使不看也很容易被发现。
在Neffos X1的左侧，您会找到SIM 卡托盘(SIM tray)和静音(Mute Sound)开关。后者不是您在许多其他智能手机上看到的。但是，如果您以前使用过 iPhone，您可能会在这里看到设计上的相似之处。🙂
Neffos X1的底部边缘是微型USB 端口(USB port)的所在地，扬声器和麦克风格栅(speaker and microphone grilles)位于其左侧和右侧。
最后，在Neffos X1的顶部边缘，您会发现只有一个 3.5 毫米音频插孔用于连接耳机。
虽然它是入门级价格，但 TP-Link Neffos X1 智能手机在设计和制造质量方面并没有让人失望。(Although it comes at an entry-level price, the TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone doesn't disappoint in terms of design and build quality.)
TP-Link Neffos X1上的智能手机体验(smartphone experience)
TP-Link Neffos X1在(TP-Link Neffos X1)通话质量(phone call quality)方面给我们留下了很好的印象。我们和我们交谈过的人都能很好地听到彼此的声音，清晰而响亮。
但是，在无线电信号方面， (radio signal)Neffos X1 却不尽如人意(Neffos X1)。我们在户外没有问题，但在室内，它无法在我们的移动网络上保持强甚至中等强度的(medium intensity)无线电信号。(radio signal)我们使用的其他智能手机在相同位置的信号接收效果要好得多。
如果你想在智能手机上看电影， Neffos X1(Neffos X1)上的扬声器效果很好，但如果你想听音乐，它不会给你留下深刻印象。扬声器的最大音量相当高，但声音缺乏低音，而且有点高音。不要犹豫，使用与Neffos X1捆绑的耳机，因为您将获得更好的音质。
TP-Link Neffos X1在多任务处理方面表现出色。我们没有设法让这款智能手机卡顿或滞后(smartphone stutter or lag)。它的处理器似乎在这方面做得很好。
如果你想在Neffos X1上玩游戏，别指望会有非凡的体验。如果您想玩要求苛刻的 3D 游戏，2GB 的RAM 内存和联发科处理器并不是一个很好的组合。(RAM memory and MediaTek processors)
最后，电池似乎即将来临：如果您不是重度用户，2250mAh 应该足以让您度过一天。但是，如果您经常使用智能手机，则可能需要在一天结束之前为其充电。
TP-Link Neffos X1 是一款不错的智能手机，但不是很好的手机。不幸的是，它没有任何电话应该做到的地方：它的信号接收相当差。如果您住在蜂窝网络覆盖良好的大城市，这应该不是问题，但如果您住在蜂窝网络覆盖不太好的小城市，则 Neffos X1 可能会出现问题。(The TP-Link Neffos X1 is a good smartphone but not a very good phone. Unfortunately, it falls short where no phone should: it has a rather poor signal reception. If you live in a big city, with good cellular coverage, this shouldn't be a problem, but if you live in a smaller city, where cellular coverage is not very good, the Neffos X1 could have a problem.)

Reviewing the TP-Link Neffos X1 - Surprisingly good, at a reasonable price
TP-Link is a company beѕt known for the nеtworking devices that they mаnufacture. Howevеr, they're also present on the smartphone market, and they rеcеntly launched a nеw series of smartphones: Neffos X1 and Neffos X1 Max. Оver the last week or so, we tested the Neffos X1 and today, we'd like tо share оur opinion about this smartphоne. Is the Neffoѕ X1 a good choice? What does it have to offer in a market that is ѕo crowded with affordable smartphones? Read this reviеw and find out:
Hardware specifications and packaging
The TP-Link Neffos X1 comes in a beautiful box made from high quality cardboard. It's a square shaped box, with a pattern of small embossed dots and a large X made from thin engraved lines. The Neffos X1 name is printed on the top of the box.
On the back of the package, you'll find a sticker with information regarding the smartphone inside. You'll see things like the exact model name of your Neffos X1, the size of its screen and the mobile networks that it supports. Inside the box, you'll find the smartphone, its power charger and detachable micro USB cable, a pair of headphones, the documentation and the warranty card.
The TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone is available in two different color variations: Cloudy Gray and Sunrise Gold. The model we tested is the Cloudy Gray variant, a color option which fits most users.
The Neffos X1 smartphone has a screen of 5 inches, with an HD resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels and a pixel per inch density of 293.7 PPI. The display uses IPS, which means that its viewing angles are wide and the color reproduction should be very good. The display is covered with 2.5D glass, which protects it against scratches and dust. 2.5D means that the glass has no hard edges, but fades into the case gradually.
If you're curious about its internal hardware, the TP-Link Neffos X1 is powered by a Helio P10 octa-core processor from MediaTek. This processor has 4 cores running at 1.8GHz and 4 cores running at 1GHz (MT6755M 4*Cortex-A53 1.8GHz + 4*Cortex-A53 1.0GHz). The graphics are handled by a Mali-T860MP2 video chip running at 550MHz.
TP-Link manufactures the Neffos X1 smartphone in two variations depending on the amount of RAM memory and storage space. You can get it with either 2GB of RAM memory and 16GB of storage space, or with 3GB of RAM memory and 32GB of internal storage space. Regardless of the version you have, you can extend the internal storage space with a microSD card of up to 128GB. The Neffos X1 smartphone that we tested came with 2GB of RAM memory and 16GB of ROM (storage) memory.
The rear camera on the TP-Link Neffos X1 is powered by a Sony IMX 258 sensor with a maximum resolution of 13 megapixels, f2.0 aperture and 0.2s phase-detection autofocus. On the front, you get a selfie camera with 5 megapixels and beautifying effects.
As for the connectivity options, the TP-Link Neffos X1 comes with a micro USB 2.0 port, a 3.5 mm audio jack, a Bluetooth 4.1 chip and a wireless network card that's capable of connecting to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi networks that use the 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless standards. It doesn't offer support for the modern 802.11ac standard.
The TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone is a Dual SIM device and supports 2G/3G WCDMA/4G LTE on both SIM cards, in Dual SIM Dual Standby. That means that even if both SIM cards are active when you're not using them, once you take a call on one of them, the other becomes inactive. And, if you add a microSD card to the smartphone to increase its storage space, you should know that it will occupy the slot of the second SIM card - which means that you won't be able to use two SIM cards on your smartphone. The TP-Link Neffos X1 takes advantage of a variety of sensors. It has an accelerometer, a compass, a proximity sensor, an ambient light sensor, and a fingerprint scanner on the back.
TP-Link equipped their Neffos X1 smartphone with a 2250mAh battery that should help it get through a whole day's use. We'll see if that's true later in this review.
As for its size, the Neffos X1 is 5.6 inches (142mm) in height, 2.8 inches (71mm) in width, and 0.31 inches (7.95mm) in depth. It weighs 4.76 ounces, or 135 grams.

Although it's an entry-level Android smartphone, the TP-Link Neffos X1 comes in a premium package and includes hardware powerful enough to deliver a good user experience.
Design and build quality
Although it's an affordable smartphone, the TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone looks like a premium device. First of all, this is a smartphone with a metal unibody case, which is rather impressive for this price tag. We've also reviewed the previous TP-Link Neffos C5 smartphone and although they're both affordable devices, the Neffos X1 is in another league in terms of design and build quality.
The top side of the Neffos X1 is dominated by the 5 inch display. It's not Full HD, as it has a resolution of only 1280 x 720 pixels, but what's nice about the display is that it has a high brightness level that makes it easy to use even in bright light, when you're outdoors.
On the bottom of the screen, you'll find the three default Android buttons: Back, Home and Recent apps. Usually, there's not much to say about these buttons. However, in the case of the Neffos X1, there are a few features worth mentioning. First of all, they are all capacitive, meaning that they're all separate from the screen. Secondly, TP-Link didn't place them in the default Android way: instead of having Back, Home and Recent apps from left to right, the Neffos X1 has Recent apps, Home and Back, from left to right. It's not a problem per se, but it will take you awhile to get used to this arrangement. Thirdly, none of the buttons is backlit, which makes them harder to spot during the night.
Moving on to the back of the smartphone, you'll find an unadorned surface, interrupted only by the camera lenses, the dual-LED flash and the fingerprint scanner. For as long as we had this smartphone in testing, the fingerprint scanner behaved very well. Although it does misread your fingerprint once in a while, in general it picks it up very fast.
Both the back and the 2.5D glass on the screen of the Neffos X1 fades gradually into its edges, leaving no hard spots.
The other important buttons on any smartphone - the power button and the volume rocker - are all found on the right side of the Neffos X1, towards the top. The power button has a more rugged texture than the others, so it will be easy to spot even if you don't look at it.
On the left side of the Neffos X1, you'll find the SIM tray and a Mute Sound switch. The latter is not something you see on many other smartphones. However, if you've used an iPhone before, you'll probably see a similarity in design here. 🙂
The bottom edge of the Neffos X1 is home to the micro USB port and the speaker and microphone grilles positioned to its left and to its right.
Finally, on the top edge of the Neffos X1 you'll find only a 3.5mm audio jack for connecting headphones.
Although it comes at an entry-level price, the TP-Link Neffos X1 smartphone doesn't disappoint in terms of design and build quality.
The smartphone experience on the TP-Link Neffos X1
TP-Link Neffos X1 left us with a good impression in terms of phone call quality. Both we and the people we've spoken to were able to hear each other well, clear and loud.
However, the Neffos X1 falls short when it comes to the radio signal. We had no problems with it outdoors, but indoors, it didn't manage to keep a strong or even a medium intensity radio signal on our mobile network. Other smartphones we used had much better signal reception, in the same locations.
The loudspeaker found on the Neffos X1 does a good job if you want watch a movie on your smartphone, but it won't impress you if you want to listen to music. The loudspeaker's maximum volume is pretty high, but the sound lacks bass and it's a bit high-pitched. Don't hesitate to use the pair of headphones bundled with the Neffos X1, as you'll get a much better sound quality.
The TP-Link Neffos X1 performs well when it comes to multitasking. We did not manage to make this smartphone stutter or lag. Its processor seems to do very well in this area.
If you want to play games on the Neffos X1, don't expect to have an extraordinary experience. 2GB of RAM memory and MediaTek processors are not a very good combination if you want to play demanding 3D games.
Finally, the battery seems to be on the verge: 2250mAh should be enough to get you through the day if you're not a heavy user. However, if you use your smartphone a lot, you might have to charge it before the day ends.
The TP-Link Neffos X1 is a good smartphone but not a very good phone. Unfortunately, it falls short where no phone should: it has a rather poor signal reception. If you live in a big city, with good cellular coverage, this shouldn't be a problem, but if you live in a smaller city, where cellular coverage is not very good, the Neffos X1 could have a problem.
Read the next page of this review and you will find out more about the camera experience, the software installed on the TP-Link Neffos X1, its performance in benchmarks and our final verdict.
