Nubia, OnePlus e Honor they meet the user by presenting their last ones flagship, or Nubia Z11, OnePlus 3 ed Honor 8, three devices come on materials premium and a sector hardware to envy the most famous brands.
So let's find out what they are together differences between the three in our match!
Nubia Z11, OnePlus 3 and Honor 8, the comparison of GizChina.it
Unboxing
Starting from packs sales, in addition to being characterized by different shapes and colors, we also find differences in equipment.
Beyond the standard equipment, Honor 8 include headphones e cover protective, Universal Z11 also offers the headphones and a micro USB / USB Type-C adapter, while OnePlus 3 he is devoid of both.
Design, Display and Construction Quality
What immediately jumps to the eye once these devices are taken in hand is the greatest constructive quality and the manic care for details.
Universal Z11 e OnePlus 3 they are entirely made of aluminumwhile on Honor 8 a construction was chosen glass on both sides, which produces beautiful light effects.
What you notice is also one difference in dimensions, decidedly more accentuated between the two flagships of the house Nubia e OnePlus except for the most compact Honor 8.
Maneuverability that yes, it favors Honor 8 in use with one hand, but that is affected by the slipperiness of the glass with which it is made.
Frontally we find a da 5.5 inch both OnePlus that of Nubia, and one from 5.2 inches su Honor.
Philosophies and different constructions among the three: su Z11 a beautiful panel is mounted IPS borderless with resolution Full HD and a pixel density of PPI 401. The whole guarantees a more feeling premium compared to the other two devices. We will then see later that i BORDI of the panel can be used to accomplish some gestures interesting.
Su OnePlus 3 the diagonal remains 5,5" but the display is of type AMOLED with a pixel density of PPI 401 and resolution Full HD.

The three are good in almost all situations. Universal Z11 that's what I found more bright, a unit that really impressed me for the fidelity in the reproduction of the colors e visibility under the direct light of the Sun. Even the viewing angles are good, even if not at the panel levels AMOLED mounted by OnePlus 3.
The latter, however, returns colors slightly saturated ed unnatural, partially obvious problem by checking the option sRGB in the Developer Options.
Il mounted on Honor 8 tents look like much to that of OnePlus 3, showing saturated colors e contrasts high although it is treated as anticipated by one IPS. Too bad that the brightness non be it right high and that curtains and being a real one magnet for the fingerprints.
