Accelerometer (or G-SENSOR) - device position sensor in space. As the main function, the accelerometer is used to automatically change the image orientation on the display (vertical or horizontal). Also, G-Sensor is used as a pedometer, they can be controlled by various device functions by turning or shaking.
Gyroscope - Sensor measuring rotation angles with respect to the fixed coordinate system. Created to measure rotation angles in several planes at the same time. The gyroscope together with the accelerometer allows you to determine the position of the device in space with high accuracy. In devices using only accelerometers, measurement accuracy is lower, especially with rapid movement. Also the possibilities of the gyroscope can be used in modern games for mobile devices.
Light sensor - Sensor, thanks to which the optimal brightness and contrast values \u200b\u200bare set for this light level. The presence of the sensor allows you to increase the operating time of the device from the battery.
Proximity sensor - Sensor that determines when the device is close to the face during a conversation, turns off the backlight and blocks the screen, preventing accidental pressing. The presence of the sensor allows you to increase the operating time of the device from the battery.
Geomagnetic sensor - Sensor to determine the side of the light into which the device is directed. Tracks the orientation of the device in space relative to the magnetic poles of the Earth. Information obtained from the sensor is used in cartographic programs for locality orientation.
Atmospheric pressure sensor - Sensor for precise measurement of atmospheric pressure. It is part of the GPS system, allows you to determine the height above sea level and speed up the location definition.
Touch ID - Identification sensor for fingerprint.

Satellite navigation:

GPS. (Global Positioning System - Global Positioning System) - satellite navigation system, ensuring measurement of distance, time, speed and determining the location of objects anywhere in the Earth. The system is developed, implemented and operated by the US Department of Defense. The main principle of using the system is to determine the location by measuring distances to the object from points with known coordinates - satellites. The distance is calculated by the time of delaying the signal propagation from sending it to the satellite before receiving an antenna GPS receiver.
GLONASS (Global navigation satellite system) - Soviet and Russian satellite navigation system, developed by order of the USSR Ministry of Defense. The measurement principle is similar to the American GPS navigation system. GLONASS is designed for operational navigation and temporary support of users of ground, marine, air and space-based. The main difference from the GPS system is that GLONASS satellites in their orbital movement do not have resonance (synchronization) with the rotation of the Earth, which ensures greater stability.

Smooth, in the mass of its square, atomic. To choose among them alone is so problematic that many just leave the store with a headache from Ryady in the eyes. But Highscreen ICE 2, whose overview we offer you in this article, is relatively different against the background of modern smartphones. And there are several reasons.

Home "Fishka"

An overview smartphone is presented here, has one distinctive feature - the second screen. Not like the Russian gadget Yota, but small, on the rear panel. But very necessary! The mini-display string display shows the most basic data that is so often required to users: time, date, battery charge, basic data from selected applications, notifications about missed calls and messages. Such a simple thing that has lacked many smartphones! Now there is no need to constantly turn on the backlight on the phone in order to find out all this data.

A little about the company and brand

Highscreen is a Russian-Chinese brand that has received active development relatively recently. In 2009, the company began to produce budget smartphones, which accounted for many users worldwide. Stable work and high-quality gadgets accounted for competition with eminent and long-known brand.

Screen

Screen diagonal at Highscreen Ice 2, the overview of which will be interesting to all potential buyers - only 4.7 inches. It is somewhat less than the usual five for 2015. But the lack of these 0.3 inches by the presence of the second screen pays off. It is located on the back cover, which is made of high-quality non-slip plastic covered with protective glass. The color reproduction of the device is simply excellent, according to experts. All paints are saturated, bright, but at the same time natural. Not observed yellowness or inappropriate acidity. Everything is nice to the eye. In addition, viewing angles at Highscreen Ice 2 Galaxy extremely successful: no dimming and colors are observed.

Setting OLED.

This refers to the small backscreen. The user can independently choose which information and which frequency will be shown on the display. By itself, it is small - 23 by 5 mm. But this is quite enough. Moreover, the battery from this smartphone does not "eat". That is, the second display is very ergonomic, even if the data frequency is set to maximum. Highscreen ICE 2, the reviews of which will be presented below, it is thanks to the second screen, it is advantageous from competitors in its price category.

Design

All users unanimously come to the conclusion that the smartphone Highscreen Ice 2, the overview of which is useful to study before buying, looks very unusual and beautiful. The rear (corning third generation) allows you to protect your smartphone from damage in careless use. For example, when dropping. By the way, not many firms use Corning Gorilla Glass for the back cover. The front glass is also made of this material. The color scheme is presented in four shades: blue (noble dark), white, gray and black. The speaker is located below the rear panel, in the middle. It provides uniform and loud sound. The main chamber is located in the upper left corner, which is also very convenient. The entire rear panel depicts the name of the brand. And since it in itself is rather big, it looks very beautiful and stylish. Highscreen ICE 2 smartphone really looks very different from its competitors.

CPU

But he is far from perfect. The manufacturers for the device installed a slightly outdated eight-year MediaTek MT6592 processor with a clock frequency of 1.7 Hz. She is, by the way, and smoothes such an unpleasant moment. Due to the high frequency, the gadget is excellent. All modern demanding games and applications work quickly and without lags. It is noteworthy that the Highscreen ICE 2 Galaxy smartphone has proven itself with multitasking. Applications even in the background work stably, without causing discomfort to the user. And all the necessary alerts can be seen on the second display if desired.

Memory device

Highscreen ICE 2 phone has 2 GB RAM. This is the standard indicator for 2015. Modern applications and games require more and more RAM, so its presence is really necessary. And here the Russian-Chinese smartphone has not disappointed. Even very demanding on the game settings work without any problems. Yes, and applications too. Although some still have to manually "downgrade" by settings. Built-in for storage of information in a 16 GB smartphone. And this is also a standard indicator. Those who do not have enough declared 16 GB (about 14 GB available from them) will help the memory card slot. More precisely, a dual slot - you can use it or under an SD card, or under the second SIM card. At the discretion of the user.

Outdoor camera

Here, too, everything is quite standard and expected - 13 megapixel. The camera itself is slightly recessed into the back cover, but the metal kant opposes it so that the pictures are not dismissed. Next to the camera is a noise reducer and speaker. All in the aggregate works fine. Pictures are obtained by high definition, without excess noise and distortion. Of course, with flagship cameras do not compare, because at Highscreen Ice 2 matrix is \u200b\u200bnot the strongest. But the pictures are still high-quality and beautiful. Autofocus works smoothly, without braking and freezes, shooting modes are enough with your head. The same, who needs more effects, it is worth paying attention to the photo edits.

Front-camera

But it is not enough - 2 megapixels. Highscreen Ice 2 Blue, like any other than this series, does not allow to make the most clear selfie. But for communication on video links it is enough. And with solid hand and proper lighting and selfie are obtained quite high quality for 2 megapixels. Photo edits are able to give vague photos a special charm. And by the way, the standard settings for this is enough.

Communication standards

Well, here is also not too modern - no support for 4G and LTE. All previously supported without problems. Of course, new communication standards have not yet been working in Russia everywhere, but this moment is no longer around the corner, so the absence of 4G can be considered a serious disadvantage for Highscreen Ice 2 (Gray, Blue, White or Black). This in the year will not be enough.

Battery

Its container is 2500 mAh. In general, a good result, taking into account the fact that the screens are still two. Let one and very ergonomic. With such a processor and the maximum brightness of the battery screen, it is enough. It is noteworthy that when the Internet is permanent (wireless Wi-Fi or built-in 3G) and the average load of the charging phone is enough for the whole day. So, rushing in search of the socket in the case of which does not have to. Well, those who play the game constantly, you can advise to purchase an external drive, which will always be at hand.

Equipment

Many modern manufacturers have become significantly saved on this. But Highscreen Ice 2, the reviews about which will help you to decide on the choice, is finding today to today. So, in the corporate box are:

• Detailed instructions in several languages \u200b\u200b(in Russian including).
• Clip to open the memory card slot and SIM card.
• Stereo headlights (it will be slightly lower).
• Charger ("Fork" herself).
• USB cable (it is the wire to the "fork").
• Smartphone.

The box itself is made of dense cardboard, which shows the model in the ice haze (Ice is still). It looks spectacular and presentable.

About headset

Most often, users save on it. But not Highscreen. This is a really high-quality headset that I do not want to change to another. It comfortably falls into the ear, provides good sound. And with the correct in the media player, it turns out a very good music player. And this is also very important for many users. For the headset, separately can be purchased by replaceable overlays.

Mention of goods 3.

Hello, dear readers of my blog on the website of the online store of computer and household appliances DNS!

Today in my review - a fairly interesting smartphone Highscreen Ice 2.. It is interesting, first of all its extraordinary appearance and the presence of an additional OLED display, located on the back from the main screen side. Plus, of course, a smartphone has a rather productive electronic filling and a good screen based on a liquid crystal matrix made by IPS technology.

Brand Highscreen. Belongs to the Russian company VOBIS, and the electronics production itself under this brand is carried out in the mainland China. Until recently, the scheme of relations between Russian customers with Chinese manufacturers was as follows: manufacturers offered electronic sets or billets, of which the Russian side was a set, which later turned into a smartphone with Highscreen label. Of course, the Russian side made adjustments to the existing billets in accordance with the set of characteristics that needed to it. Russian customers could, for example, ask manufacturers to increase the frequency of the processor, install another screen or graphic chip, put a more powerful battery. There were also more breakthrough ideas designed to make Highscreen smartphones "the most" extraordinary. Recall, for example, the wonderful smartphones of the BOOST series with two batteries in the kit, one of which has a capacity of 6000 mAh! Now the relationship of customers and manufacturers somewhat changed, by going to ODM cooperation scheme. Now Russian designers and designers fully develop the design and layout of devices, order the characteristics of the electronic filling, and the manufacturer does what the customer needs. As a result, we have an inexpensive final product produced in the market with a cheap workforce and a fairly developed culture and production technology. It is also worth saying that Highscreen does not install its shells and applications on smartphones, limited to the Android net operating system, which has a beneficial effect on the stability of devices and requires less hardware resources during operation.

In general, for me it is the first experience of communicating with Highscreen and I am not at all disappointed with its result.

PACKAGING

In the package of smartphone Highscreen Ice 2. The manufacturer departed from its tradition to supply smartphones in a yellow cardboard package with a monochrome drawing. This smartphone is sold in color cardboard boxes, the color of which corresponds to the color of the device body. So that there were smartphones Highscreen Ice 2. White, gray and blue buildings, but on the official website of Highscreen, I found on sale a limited batch of gold smartphones, released in a gravity of only 2000 pieces and at the same price as other colors. So, or otherwise, but in this review my smartphone is gray and the box is also a dark gray. About the box can be said that it is very small and made of durable cardboard. According to the style of the style, she reminded me of one brand with a thumbnail fruit, but the quality of the packaging in that brand is of course higher.

On top of the box depicted a smartphone, on the screen of which ice crystals are scattered.

With the side of the package there is no information except stickers with the serial number of the smartphone and IMEI.

But the bottom of the box is already more interesting - it contains the main technical characteristics of Highscreen Ice 2 as well as information about the bonus - free 128 GB of the 4Sync cloud storage volume. After registering on the 4Sync website, there is 1 TB of free repository for a period of 30 days, how much will actually be with your smartphone, time will show.

The bottom of the box is sealed by two branded stickers, speaking that no one opened this box before you.

Smartphone inside the package is in the plastic package.

CONTENTS OF DELIVERY

Package Included:

2. Power adapter,

3. Micro-USB cable,

4. Stereo headlights,

5. Tool to extract micro-SIM card compartments and microSD cards,

6. User Guide,

7. Warranty card.

The tool is very miniature and it is easy to lose, but even if it is lost, it is not necessary to despair, it is not necessary to open the compartments with a paper clip or any subtle subject.

The HKC0055010-3A charger is essentially the most common and interchangeable with any similar to the destination. It provides a constant voltage 5 in current force to 1 A. When it is new, then all its glossy surfaces are placed with a special film in order to avoid random scratches.

Micro-USB cable - not quite ordinary and has one interesting chip: it is highlighted near the Micro-USB connector when the cable is applied. The backlight color also changes when charging is charged, it burns in red, and when the smartphone is fully charged or the cable is not connected to the Micro-USB connector - blue. Agree, an interesting design solution, which is not even in many famous brands!

The headset with sight is very noteworthy in that it has wires of bright red. Wires - flat cross section, why do not have a tendency to twist, and their insulation in softness reminded me of rubber. The plug at the telephone headset is 4-pin, it is explained by the fact that its composition includes a microphone located in a small black box on the wires, on which the button is at the same time to answer the phone call. Agree that it is quite convenient, because while listening to music does not need to get a smartphone out of your pocket.

After analyzing the characteristics of the smartphone Highscreen Ice 2. It is safe to say that it turned out to be quite powerful and will quite satisfy the needs of his master in the next couple of years, especially considering that the manufacturer did not save 2 GB in the amount of operational memory, setting it at once 2 GB (which is characteristic of smartphones and tablets with The resolution of the screen is 1920x1080), and also equipped its flash memory with a volume of 16 GB. This, unfortunately, I can not say about my first Lenovo P770 smartphone, which has almost the entire system area of \u200b\u200bnon-volatile memory and not even updates are not loaded.

MEDIATEK MT6592 Eight-core processor installed in HighScreen ICE 2 is able to process a huge number of operations per second and at the moment it is one of the best processors for the ratio of performance / energy efficiency. If the processor resources are not in demand, then "extra", not involved, Cortex-A7 kernels go into sleep mode. The MALI-450MP4 graphics processor is by no means top, but still quite adequately copes with graphics in games and any applications. However, it is not necessary to hope for the full compatibility of "iron" with the software - I got it and installed one of the games, which in the end I reported that it was not compatible with this device.

APPEARANCE

On the front and rear surface of the new Highscreen ICE 2 smartphone, a protective transport film is pasted, which you need to remove before using the device.

Upper and lower surface of the smartphone Highscreen Ice 2. A third generation Gorilla Glass glass is covered with high resistance to scratches and shocks. This is exactly, you will not often meet with budget smartphones. The coating collects not a lot of fingerprints, and the smartphone reminded me very much of the Sony Xperia Z model, which I also had to test. The same subtle and slippery, it strives to slip out of the fingers when cold weather. The brand mirror logo is under glass on the back and looks very careful.

Highscreen Ice 2.in general, it looks very elegant and made very carefully - there are no cracks and squeaks of the hull, the quality of plastic parts is also at the height.

From the right side there is a loudness rudder and a microSD card slot, closed with a decorative plug. Left - two slots under Micro-SIM card

From above there is a power on / off button and the socket for the telephone headset, and the micro-usb socket for charging or transferring files and the microphone miniature hole.

On the back side, there are: chamber 13 mp, a LED flash, a hole of the second microphone to implement the external noise suppression system and the dynamics slot. Yes, the most important thing I almost forgot! Here is the very second OLED display about which I spoke at the very beginning of the review. It is periodically displayed information about the time, date, charge of the battery, weather and temperature, as well as the availability of non-e-mail messages. During the phone call, the subscriber's name is displayed onto it if it is listed in your contact book, or just a phone number. This screen is the main chip of the smartphone Highscreen Ice 2., which is not in any other smartphone, if, of course, do not take a comparison of YotaPhone 2, which has a screen of a completely different type and destination. This screen, of course, is a gorgeous idea of \u200b\u200bdesigners, but it would be more cooler if it were colored, and not blunt-gray.

From the front side, in addition to the main display, there is a light sensor and an approximation, chamber eye chamber for selfie and a conversational speaker, covered with a protective metal mesh.

Under the screen there are three touch buttons with white backlight, the central has a kind of a mug, and its color of the backlight varies depending on the events that occurred.

The color and speed of ripples can be changed through the menu by assigning one or another events and applications your backlight color. If the phone is charging, then this indicator glows red if the battery charge level reaches 90% and higher, becomes green. When you missed the default call, it flashes in blue.

At the expense of glass and additional display Highscreen Ice 2. It looks very stylish and clearly more expensive than its cost.

I have MINI-SIM cards that I wanted to install in a smartphone, in it, of course, did not fit.

I had to install the MTS working SIM and get a biline new sample.

Screen smartphone Highscreen Ice 2. Made by IPS technology, besides, it does not have an air layer between protective glass and a liquid crystal matrix. Due to this, it looks more dark than the usual IPS screen, and on the bright sun less challenges and the information on the screen is quite readable. On Gorilla Glass 3 glass with a oleophobic fingerprint coating, the fingerprints are harvested much less than on ordinary protective films, and erase them easier. When viewing the screen at different angles of color distortion, it does not occur, only the brightness changes. The screen resolution is not very large, corresponding to the HD standard (1280x720 pixels), but I did not notice the pixelization on the screen on the screen. The density of pixels per inch is 230.

Checking the screen to work with multiple touch confirmed the possibility of simultaneous work with 5 points.

Interface and software shell

On the Highscreen ICE 2 smartphone, Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat is installed, so initially the number of applications is minimal.

They occupy only two desktop screens.

Of course, any available photos can be installed as wallpaper, as well as moving screensavers.

If you pull the top of the screen down, the area of \u200b\u200bnotifications opens, which provides for easy access to the rapid settings of the communication options, screen and sound.

In addition to the usual Android settings, they have additional options that are only characteristic of Highscreen ICE 2. First of all, this is the OLED tab. Here is set to the display of the display, the speed of the running text, the temperature and weather display settings in your city, as well as the inclusion of the display of virgin names. The display must be recognized, very pleasant, although I would like to use it more often for large options.

Here the options that need to be displayed on the OLED screen are included.

Sound settings have included options to improve sound quality in headphones and increase the speaker volume.

In the screen settings there is an interesting item - "Wireless Monitor".

If you have a smart TV with a Wi-Fi module that supports this feature, then you can easily display a picture from your smartphone. I easily brought the image with Highscreen Ice 2 on the SAMSUNG UE55J5500 TV, and at home I managed to connect to the WD TV Live console and see the picture on the monitor.

Returning to the topic of multicolored light notifications under the main display, I will say that their setup has the following form:

The number of colors is limited, but it is essentially no longer necessary, as it is simply not real on the small luminous ring on a small ringlet. I would only like a little more vivid level of this indicator.

On the smartphone, it is indeed enough space for almost any applications, and if the places still be missing, you can use a microSD memory card with a volume of up to 32 GB, however, it is possible that the map and greater volume will work, for example 64 GB. On these screenshots, data on free and busy memory has already downloaded and installed some utilities for testing the performance of the smartphone.

Some information about the phone can be viewed in the settings.

More detailed clarifies with the help of special utilities, for example, 3DMark performance test issued this data:

The Hardware Info utility gives even more detailed and interesting information.

Interesting to me, for example, there were information about the sensors installed in the smartphone, among which the digital compass was also.

Definition of location via GPS, by the way, in Highscreen Ice 2. It works simply excellent, satellites are literally in seconds (about half-minute), providing very high accuracy in the region of 2-4 meters. Those who speak about problems with GPS in MTK production processors, probably did not try this smartphone in the case, or, most likely, the company simply fulfilled a kind of work on errors, as the smartphone easily and confidently finds 8-10 satellites in city Buildings.

Cameras

Cameras, as it should be in a normal smartphone, two. The one that is usually taken to take photographs and video is made based on the 13 MP CMOS sensor Sony IMX214, and the one is intended for conversations on Skype and selfie, it is very simple and has only 2 megapixel.

Camera settings are very rich.

The photosensitivity can be increased to 1600, though it is not clear to whom it will need, since already on ISO 250 the camera is harmlessly, which is clearly visible on night pictures.

The resolution of the main chamber can be changed from QVGA and VGA to 13 MP.

Video resolution is low, 480p, 720p and 1080p, in the same tab for video, you can enable an electronic EIS image stabilizer.

If you enable the Gyro option, the yellow strip will be displayed on the screen, which at the time of the level coincidence with the horizon will take purple color, as well as a blue strip that displays the vertical angle of inclination of the smartphone relative to the horizon point.

During the shooting, you can enable HDR mode, as well as special effects, such as: sepia, negative, contour ... For a snapshot to a HDR, a smartphone needs to be held longer than the usual, the image in the shades is dry and becomes a bit more clearly, but moving parts due to the overlay of two frames can Become translucent.

The bright day the main chamber removes well and has decent detailing, but the so-called "watercolorization" is observed, leading to lubricating parts on more dark monophonic surfaces. The video is removed with a frequency of 30 frames per second (24 for FullHD) with a frequency of sound sampling 48 kHz in MOV format. Examples of pictures and video are a bit, but hopefully they will help to make a general impression of the level of applied cameras and software. For the operational shooting of unexpected events, the smartphone is quite suitable.

TESTING

To test the performance of the smartphone, I used several well-known utilities, including, of course, 3DMark in which Highscreen Ice 2. scored 4830 points.

In the test Antutu Benchmark V5.7.1, the hero of our review was difficult to compete with leaders from well-known manufacturers and he expectedly lost to them, but there was no reason to be upset, as a whole, the smartphone scored 30513 points, which did not even dream of the bulk of budget devices on Android.

The Antutu Video Tester 3.0 utility has not pleased with full compatibility of ICE 2 with all possible codecs, but I did not expect it.

Benchmarks Nenamark 1 and 2 graphics When resolving the screen 1280 * 720 showed the same number of frames per second - 60.8.

In PCMark, the smartphone scored 2757 points.

In the test Vellamo Highscreen ICE 2 also issued average indicators relative to the leaders.

In the test GEEKBENCH 3 in single-core mode, the smartphone was clearly weak, but in the multider practically caught up with the leaders with the result of 2401 points!

Testing the speed of the internal flash memory of the device.

Check the speed of Wi-Fi. Despite the available Internet channel in 100 Mbps, the program is not designed for speed above 50 Mb / s, which is also very good for the smartphone.

The games on the smartphone go without brakes even enough demanding to resources, which is here to talk about Tetris type games, but some games may not be supported at the hardware level.

PLANE SIMULATOR.

Autonomy of work

The autonomy of the work of such a powerful smartphone, equipped with not the very capacious battery itself, was not expected to be expected. With the active use of the smartphone and the Wi-Fi enabled, it will fully last the day, while the mode with periodic email checks and the traffic included through 3G Highscreen ICE 2 lasted 2 days for 15 hours. The Wi-Fi module was disabled in the menu, but it is displayed on the battery usage diagram.

In ANTUTU TESTER HIGHSCREEN ICE 2 scored 4792 points (battery discharge from 100 to 20%), the duration of the test was about 2 h. 45 min.

Outcome

It's time to summarize Highscreen Ice 2. I can say that in general I really liked the smartphone, first of all on design and in my consumer qualities. Its program interface is completely free from lags, and the screen is very good in the picture. The camera will completely come down for the third grade, it is convenient and nothing more.

An attached telephone headset will only come down for conversations and inspection of performance, since it is not sufficiently expressed high frequencies, and the remaining frequency response is more predisposed to the mid-frequency and upper-low-frequency sounds. In general, she has a little bubbly sound. I can not say that the sound is very bad, but even cheap headphones Sony MDR-EX50LP sounds cleaner. During the testing of a smartphone with a headset, it turned out that in the play music program, if you scroll a list of songs across the screen, an unpleasant tip is heard in the headphones, which resembles a weakly pronounced crackling. During the playback of the music of this tip there.

The battery capacity still would like more, at least 4000 mAh, and if the manufacturer provided his candy with a battery of 6000 mAh, then the joy of users would not have a limit. After all, you agree, nonsense to equip a sports Ferrari with a gas tank with a volume of 20 liters.

Pros:

Excellent build quality,

Screen coating and housing Glass GORILLA Glass 3,

Good screen quality,

Interesting designers finds with the use of the second OLED screen, light alerts and the backlight of the USB recharging cord,

The complete absence of lags interface when working in the menu and with applications.

Minuses:

Insufficiently capacious, moreover, the bothering battery,

When scrolling the screen in headphones on the background of music, interference is tested,

The quality of the cameras could be better, albeit to the detriment of resolution.
