Hi Guys,

I need some advice.
I am currently planning to upgrade from my Sony Xperia L to a Asus Zenfone 2 (ZE550ML). The digi EPP (interest free) for the Zenfone 2 looks good.

I don't really play games on the phone but will be using it talk, & get around using Waze or Navigate. Also Facebook & Watsapp.

Any comment is much appreciated.

Regards,
Dbassnut

Go for it. The phone would be more responsive and faster than your xperia l

Thinking of getting the Asus Zenfone ZE550ML 2GB version from Digi as its below RM800 there. Also there is their interest free EPP so not too taxing.
The ZE551ML is nicer with 4GB but out of my budget.

Any known problems with the ZE550ML?
*
No major problems with this phone.
The battery last longer than the ze551ml

Hi, I asked for a recommendation last year but never got myself to buy a new smartphone. Now my new job requires such a device, for using what's app, showing clients info with easy access of apps and internet. But would a tablet be  a better choice?

Brand: Any, as long as got good after sales customer service
Price: Rm1000 more or less
Specs: Easy to use. Good specs vs price (vs durability) ratio for the price, occasional (intense) gaming tongue.gif , long battery life. Not sure about camera, as long can get good and clear reference picture for my 3D hobby. (I think I'm asking for the impossible here...)
Much thanks!

are u willing to spend 200 more?

Am currently using moto g 1st gen, looking for similar spec or higher phone. Ideally 5 inch screen, fd or fhd screen resolution, snapdragon 615 or higher, decent camera, min built in 16gb, consistent update from manufacturer, and most important price range below rm1k or slight higher is acceptable.

hi..i've been surveying for a week plus.now that i'm tired of it, i would like for recommendations from sifus here.
between galaxy a5 / mi 4i /moto g 3rd gen.
my budget is around rm1k but willing to stretch a bit till rm1200 only.
i need a fast phone and great camera with great build quality and phone support.
hahahah.
any other better recommendations?
*
since youre willing to stretch your budget till rm1200
get the oneplus one at rm1200
best spec vs price ratio
Galaxy a5 and moto g 3rd gen have low specs
and the mi4i have a lot of software bugs

yes theres some bugs but most have been rectified
and you can flash stock android easily with this phone

the mi4i have problem with the software and throttling, even with latest miui 7 rom the phone is still a bit laggy
you get better specs with the one plus one too
snapdragon 801 vs 615/ 410(moto g)
3gb ram vs 2gb
64gb rom vs 16gb

Hi guys, have been using note 3 for 2 years now and so far I am satisfied by it other than the low battery life.
I am now considering a change of phone  (an upgrade). Any recommendation for budget max Rm2.5k to rm3k phone? Requirement : smooth and high definition.
*
with that budget the note 5 would be the best
wait for the official release rm2.7k icon_rolleyes.gif

To request recommendation, what u need to post:

1. Brand. (HTC/Samsung/LG/Motorola/Others)
No limitation.

2. Budget. (1.5k-2k)
Below 1.2k

3. Specs. (Ram/Proc/Camera's MP/Screen size)
Good camera, at least 2GB of RAM, 1080p display, descent battery life, no major issue

4. What you need in the phone (Good camera/good sound quality/durable)
I hope to get a phone with lesser bloatware. Asus Zenfone 2 seems to have tons of bloatware. XiaoMi seems to looks like an iPhone. I hope to get a Stock Andriod experience. But I hope not to get an old phone. Better if it is released this year.

Btw, is Moto X Play released in Malaysia?
*
Your budget 1.5-2k
Or below 1.2k?

Is Note 4 better than the OnePlus One?

Thinking of getting a 2nd hand Note 4, ori + good condition + still some warranty left

Market price looks like about RM1300 - 1500, is it a good deal or do you have any suggestions for other better / more value for money models?
*
Yes the note 4 is better than op one
If you can get it in that price range then its the best choice

Thanks for the input. Other than Note 4, do you have other brands and model to recommend that may be as good but not as premium-priced?
*
Asus zenfone 4gb 64gb 1399
Op 1 64gb rm1199
Oppo find 7 now rm999

But of all these phones not 4 have the best specs because it used to be a flagship product before replaced by note 5 recently

I am now deciding between OnePlus One 16gb and Find 7. If not mistaken, find 7 has a better storage of 32gb and QHD display for rm999 right now. Although Colour OS < Cyanogenmod, I can change it to Google Now Launcher.

Still, are these 2 phones future proof? Cause I will be using the new phone for at least upcoming 3-4 years. Will the update be frequent as these phones are more than a year old right now.

and btw, will I get automatic updates if i change the ROM? will i remain my warranty if i change the ROM?

Plus, which one is better generally? OPO or Find 7?
*
both should be future proof, the snapdragon 801 is still more powerful than all midrange chipset like the snapdragon 615, mediatek helio x10 etc
from those two, depends on what you want really
better specs- find 7
better custom rom support- one plus one
but then u sure the 16gb storage of the op one is enough for you
rm150 for the 64gb version is worth it if u choose op one

OTA updates is available on certain custom roms

Looking to buy a new phone:

1. Brand - Ok with any brand, as long as their post sales service is good, and good durability and warranty. A phone which can last another 3 years or more would be great
2. Budget - Below RM2k
3. Specs - I mainly use my phone for calls, Vaze, Whatsapp, emails, a bit of casual games and some casual apps.
4. Type/Size - 5" or bigger screen. Battery at least can sustain a day

P.S: My last phone was iPhone 4, and it is finally dead. I need to buy a new phone ASAP

Thanks!
