I got some comment on the Sony Z5 Premium.
Everything is ok on this phone, except the touch screen.

If you view the screen from the side, or view the phone screen in slanting way, let florescent light reflect on it, you actually can see very clearly the touch screen sensor, covering the screen, in some reflection color, look likes the hexagonal bee nest.

If that doesn't bother you, then it is ok to pick that phone too.

Honor 5X

thanks

Looking to buy a phone by next week, done a bit of research but I would like some of your suggestions Also bonus points if can buy in Digital Mall, Sunway or DirectD (not online, the highway outlet)!


1.Brand - Prefer NOT to have Samsung(hate UI and popularity ),Oppo(depends lah, never heard Oppo's name in any review site so idk, good or not?)

2.Budget - around rm500-RM1000 (maaaybe can go up to 1200 but only if REALLY worth)

3. Specs - screen at least 5" or higher, Marshmellow, lesser plastic the better, I donno anything about connectivity stuff, as long as can use Maxis postpaid plan, is good

4.What I need in the phone -As close to Stock Android as possible (if more customizable then ok, but annoying things like no app drawer is dealbreaker) Smooth and snappy performance, good camera, decent battery life, premium feel, can last at least more than 2 years


So far I REALLY like the OnePlus X, only thing stopping me from buying is OnePlus brand not very common in Malaysia so if got problem might be harder to fix, Honor 5X looks nice also but is not smooth and EMUI is , Zenfone 2 is ok but my old phone was also Zenfone5.

Fast replay is super appreciated, thanks !

Motorola XT1092 (Black) @ 899 from Lazada (SCT Distribution) Use Voucher to get cheapest.
OnePlus X
OPPO F1 (Put Nova Launcher Prime @ RM1 from PlayStore, not sure deal end or not) Android Authority got review.

I am looking for a phone

For now mine choice
Honor 7
vs
Honor 5x

I like 5.5 inch screen but
Honor 5x 2gb ram i scared will lag

Got any other phone around Rm800-1100
Tell me

1. Brand: Any Brand will do
2. Budget: ~RM900
3. Specs: Doesn't matter, as long as can perform as my requirements below
4. What you need in the phone: Camera. Will need a very good camera phone. COming from a Lumia 920, I will expect the replacement to be as good as that or better. Been looking at MX4, Lenovo Vibe Shot, but the software of both seems not good enough and the camera are not as consistent.
Thanks.

If u scare lag, take One Plus X

Lenovo K4 note
If u want camera good and very powerful go buy s7 edge better dslr

Laggy or not, processor is the main factor, second comes the UI. At least 2GB RAM is more than enough.
Well, Oneplus X confirm premium and less lag with SD801 processor, then more superior gaming graphic chip, AMOLED screen.

Huawei Honor 7 also not a bad choice, but high end gaming may loose to Oneplus X, you may find lag in high graphic gaming.

Zenfone 2 is just half ok la.
It is much faster than Zenfone 5, perform almost the same as Oneplus X, but battery life and camera are not as good, but Zenfone 2 do come with 32GB and 64GB internal storage at cheaper price, something even more expensive brand can't offer.

At this price, not much can be said.
You may check out Xiaomi Mi4, and Huawei Honor 7 for better camera performance.

Moto X can be considered too.

Smooth operating system to prevent lagging situation, if you had lenovo a7000plus you will know what i mean. Was considering mi5 or mi4s (incoming phone) and also oppo f1 and huawei honor 5x but having the review that oppo f1 and honor5x is not so great.

Huawei Honor 7 and Oneplus X fit your needs.

Redmi Note 3 899
Mi4c 1149
Vibe shot 1199
Honor 7 1299
Mi4S 1399

Budget: 1k-2k
Brand: No Apple
Specs: Only 6' inch. Good Camera and Battery Life

Please recommend me I thinking to get a 6 inch phablet as short term use while waiting for Nokia return to smartphone.

Huawei Mate 8 is getting alot of love since launch, is there any options

6 inch phone only Mate 8.

There are yet to be launch Samsung Galaxy A9,
Then, OPPO R7 Plus, Lenovo Z2 Pro, Sony Xperia C5 Ultra.

Of course, Mate 8 is the king of 6 inch for now, nearest contender would be Samsung Galaxy A9, third would be OPPO R7 Plus.

Hi, How about Huawei Honor 7(E) compare with Huawei G8?

Because when i go over Huawei outlet, the sales person was saying G8>Honor 7(E). Due to the resolutions more real or something like that..

Main different would be G8 camera has OIS, which capture less blur image.
Then the processor different, Honor 7 Kirin 935 should be more powerful than G8 Snapdragon 615 processor, but not by much.
Honor 7 front camera is 8MP, while G8 front camera is 5MP.

Both pricing are comparable though.
