: ========================================
: 刚刚在Head-fi上看到的,应该是同为Android作业系统的D3的後续机。
: 基本上D3的声音没话说,不过续航跟硬体配置在配有Android这个硬体怪兽之下显得无力。
: 就知名度也比自家师姐J3还低,D3早期在Android 2.1时期常有死当、APP不支援的鸟事,
: 希望Z2在硬体设置上能改善D3的缺点,当然也希望声音能保留就是了。
: 对於有考虑购买Sony Z1000系列的人来说,在等台湾代理或者日版降价的同时,
: 不妨可以对这台Cowon Z2抱持着点期待,Cowon家的声音很少让人失望的。
虽然自己回自己文很奇怪,不过更新一下一些Z2的新资讯。
About a year after their first foray into Android fields, Cowon released the
Z2 Plenue in Korea – indirectly admitting the earlier D3 being a beta product
… one that customers paid dear money for.
Cowon在踏入Android领域後已经经过了将近一年的时间,这次Cowon在自家韩国正式发表
了新型PMP-Cowon Z2 Plenue,同时也隐约的暗示着早期生产的D3是一款Beta机,一款消
费者浪费钱买来的Beta机....。
The Z2 is basically the exact same product as the D3 with a few hardware
flaws ironed out. The Z2′s 1GHz Telechips Cortex-A8 processor isn’t quite
as outdated as the D3′s 750Mhz ARM11 (although it’s still far from what’s
usually built into Android devices nowadays), and it has 512MB Ram, which is
quite a bit more useful than the D3′s paltry 170MB (usually 60MB free). Gone
is also Cowon’s proprietary 32-pin port – the Z2 sports standard MicroUSB
and MicroHDMI ports. While this is generally a great update, it might however
mean the Z2 doesn’t do S/PDIF-out anymore, as found on the D3′s proprietary
port.
Z2在一些硬体架构上跟D3相似。Z2采用了1GHz Telechips Cortex-A8处理器,虽然比起现
今广泛使用在Android装置的CPU相比仍有一段差距,但是比起D3那过时的750Mhz ARM11已
经好上许多。而Z2也配有512MB RAM,比起在D3的170MB RAM来说会更有实用性,以D3来说
在170MB RAM的情况下通常仅有60MB可以使用。而其中当然也有些特色消失了,例如Cowon
家特有的32-pin输入口,Z2采用的是标准的MicroUSB及MicroHDMI输入口。这虽然是一个很
大的改进,但这也可能同时意味着Z2无法像D3一般的使用S/PDIF输出。
The Z2′s screen is a 3.7〃 800 x 480 AMOLED one, just like the D3′s – let’
s hope Cowon used one with a real RGB subpixel matrix this time, not an
inferior Pentile one. I also hope they got hardware-accelerated video
contrast ratio right this time – I’m still hoping for a fix for this
glaring bug in the D3… Still available on the Z2 is one of the D3′s best
features over almost all other Android devices out there – plenty of tactile
buttons, making usability on the go quite a lot easier than touchscreen-only
controls. Battery life on the Z2 still isn’t great – 22 hours for music,
8-9 hours for video. Let’s hope those synthetic benchmark numbers are
somewhat close to real-life performance.
Z2采用与D3相同的3.7"、800x480的AMOLED萤幕,不过让我们在这里祈祷这次Cowon是真的
用RGB次画素排列而不是较为低阶的Pientile,我是真的希望可以解决这个耀眼的大BUG。
Z2也仍然保持着D3特有而在其他Android设备上不常见的实体快捷键设计,这会比起只能
藉由触控萤幕操作的装置更具便利性。但是Z2的电池续航力就不是那麽的好了,播放音乐
时的续航为22HRS;影片大概是8-9HRS。让我们再次祷告这些官方数字可以更接近实际续航
力吧。
The Z2 still runs on Android 2.3, and the user interface looks quite similar
to the D3. The big clock on the main screen says “Happytime” – must be
some Korean thing. If one doesn’t like all that, it’s easily changed with
custom launchers, 3rd party audio- or video apps. Other than that, it seems
the Z2 just got a few more EQ and sound enhancement presets over its
ancestors – mostly of the gimmicky bathroom reverb variety. There’s also a
feature called “Lossless Mixer” – which we probably will find out more
about soon enough.
Z2采用跟改版後的D3一样的Android2.3系统,而UI设计上也跟D3十分神似。在主画面上的
大时钟写着"HAPPYTIME",应该是一些韩国梗吧?如果你不喜欢这样的设计,你可以很简单
的替换掉这些原生系统,像是第三方Launcher、播放器等等的APPS。而另一个特点就是Z2
有着比其他前代机还要多的EQ设置,特别是其中一个叫"浴室回音"的搞笑EQ。而又一个新
特色就是"Lossless Mixer"(无损混音器),我们也许能在不久後能更了解这项新技术。
It goes without saying that the Z2 plays every audio and video codec under
the sun, and memory of course is expandable via MicroSDHC cards. Wi-Fi –
check, Bluetooth – check, speaker, mic, FM radio – check. Still no camera
or GPS, though.
而无需多费唇舌的,Z2所支援的音乐、影片格式都如同我们以前知道的一样,更不用多提
一定设置有额外SDHC记忆卡插槽、WIFI上网、蓝芽、内建扬声器、FM广播。好吧,目前为
止还是没有GPS跟照相机。
In my opinion the Z2 certainly looks less fetching, more generic than the
D3. Cowon’s marketing drones call it “Floating Design” – by which they
mean the edge of the back plate resembles a bevel or bezel. I can’t imagine
that being overly nice to hold, compared to a more regular curved back plate.
在我(文章撰写者,不是我)的眼里Z2外型设计比起D3并没有那麽有吸引力,甚至说是更普
通了点。Cowon表示这样的设计叫"Floating Design"(漂浮设计),在Z2的後盖边缘象徵着
一个斜面或是刃面。我(不是我)无法想像这样独特的设计比起以往的设计可以符合握感。
Same as the J3 was an evolutionary upgrade on the older S9, the Z2 doesn’t
seem ‘revolutionary’ compared to the D3. This is often a good approach –
Cowon has a track record of trying to reinvent the wheel with each new
player, and often failing at it. Let’s hope this time they learned from
their mistakes with the D3 and deliver another killer device like the J3.
从老S9到J3可以说是一个进化性的提升,但是Z2跟D3相较下就不是那麽的"革命性"变化。
但是这其实是个好现象,Cowon一直以来都尝试着再创作一款新型的播放器,但是时常以
失败收场。让我们希望这次Cowon可以吸取从D3学到的教训,并且再次创造像J3那样的杀
手级播放器吧!
A release date for the Western world isn’t known yet, but the Z2 goes from
259000 KRW (~230 USD) for the 8GB version to 339000 KRW (~300 USD) for the
32GB version in Korea.
虽然还不清楚在西方的售价会是多少,不过从Z2在韩国的售价来看:
8G:259,000韩元,约230镁,约6,900新台币。
16GB:299,000韩元,约265镁,约7,950新台币。
32G:339,000韩元,约300镁,约9,000新台币。

嗯,说句老实话,这次的Z2我觉得还满有吸引力的。
虽然在萤幕尺寸、处理器上都输Sony Z系列,但是价格还满有竞争力的。
而且Z2的原生播放器便支援大量音乐格式,不需要额外安装第三方播放器,
新的JetEffect5.0以及Lossless Mixer也都是很吸引人的亮点。
相信在改善了D3一些为人诟病的缺点後,Z2跟iPod比应该会多了不少竞争力。
期待新Cowon播放器的你,心动了吗?
我还是在等新的X7,或是该叫X9?这样的硬碟机上市。
