Seriously I couldn't believe it too !! I am still testing other aspects of the phone and phone is now back on charging on original fast charger . Was only using powerbank to charge it since yesterday morning and overnight too
I knew it could be better than my ex S6E ( 5-6 hours SOT) as is obviously not so warm as S6E ( warmest phone I had used)

I also am in shocked and awe. Maybe n5 is the gadget of the future laugh.gif however, 32gb for me bo kau.

I wouldnt trust too much on initial reviews on new phones anymore. It always depend on individual users and battery usage is very subjective imo.
*
Well thats why i ask sifu here. I can roughly gauge his usage compared to mine.

But again, 2599 also not cheap. Need to fork out abt additional 1k if i sell my n4. hmm.gif

LG G4 is a very good alternative. At least it had removable battery n ext sdcard.

BTW Note4 sold n funds received!!
*
What? Lol so fast. Uncle. Where u sell? So fast one.


I worry g4 battery life only. Read few places and from some ex-n4 owners, comments are n4 better sot/batt life. Which is a concern for me.

But it does give better display and camera.

Sold here in lowyat thread after I said I wanted to sell
G4 battery I deemed worser than Note4 by an hour+ less SOT.
U want good battery consider  Oppo R7+ easily 8 hours SOT : another good phone for rm1998
*
Ya thats why i havent changed to g4.

As for oppo, i dun think i will ever try it. Not too keen on new china brands. Even u highly recommend huawei mate 7 with 4100mah, confirm fulfill my needs, but its also another china brand. I dont have much confidence in them, not at that price.

If cheaper lile 1.3-1.4 still can consider..

Well thats just me.

WHY so bias on China brands?? Huawei and Oppo are reputable especially HuaWei . HW is world biggest manufacturer of telco equipments and I believe most telcos in the world used their equipment.

My first HW phone was Mate 6.1 - that time I just bought to test . I was very surprised at how stable and reliable the firmware was. Than I move on to X1, Mate 7 and now P8 Max. I had zero issues with their phones. At least it is not full of bloatware vs Samsung. Excellent battery life all these HW phones : SOT - Mate 6.1 6-7 hours, X1 - 10-12 hours, Mate 7 8-10 hours, P8 Max 10-12 hours. And all these phones operating temperatures are cooler than the HTC, Samsung, LG etc

Oppo - first unit was Find 7 : very good phone too except miserable battery life 3-4 hours SOT. They were the first to come out with the QHD  display. Its fast VOCC Charging was the fastest than 75% in half an hour ! Similar results too for the R7+
Whether you like it or not China manufacturers are the wave of the future in technology. Do not look them down
And China brands are no longer cheap unless you go and buy those unknown brands - cheap rip off imitations
*
Ya. I dunno why i am bias. Never really been a fan of china-made stuff (yeah my samseng also made in china).

Dunnola. No confidence in their brand. Also, their brands cant hold value at all. Not saying samsung does but definitely better than the other android phones.

Well thats just me.

Yeah i do. But.. always been a fan of note edge. Offer was too good to turn down. sweat.gif sweat.gif

Also my s planner widget bug annoys the hell outta me sweat.gif

But... i immediately feel the difference. N4 at my hse, using 4g, signal quite weak. On the edge, signal is 3 bars. Placebo effect maybe? laugh.gif

Huawei phones has always the best signals n wifi ....another strength of them being major manufacturers of such equipment
I think your ex Note4 is problematic with all the issues you reported. There are bound to be lemon sets in manufacturing. My ex S6E ( 32gb) I needed to change motherboard in just 2 weeks due to earpiece speaker spoilt n failed to hear anything
..

Ya maybe. But mine small issue. Only i am too ocd. Lol. But was very happy with my n4. Was quite reluctant to swap, but hey, this is a note edge! I believe this phone will hold better value.

Truth be told. I feel the n4 superior lol.

Not direct swap though. I topped up rm200. Which is fair. Edge is more exp

My n4 seems to be snappier vs this edge. Noticeable by a noob which is me.

Oh, I called that trade rather swap. Swap is more 1 by 1 exchange, trade consist of more additional value.
I'm interested in your full review after using NoteEdge for few days. Day 1 is too early to judge anything.
*
Trade then. My bad. England no good.

Anyhow, dont need few days. I can tell u now.

N4 > note edge.

Battery sot now 2hrs with 40% left, surfing (n4 screen is slightly bigger), heck even my icons here are 4x5 while n4 is 5x5. I am having troubles minimizing my windows via swipe top right diagonally. In fact i cant get it. Its as easy as 123 with my note 4.

When i browse thru app manager, i scroll all the way down, got lag abit here and there like processor not up to par. N4 didnt have that issue.

Harder to hold. Left handers are at a disadvantage. Phone is hotter than n4. Edge display is quite cool but after awhile.. it means ntg.

Key apps on the edge, takes a little getting used to as well. Sometimes accidently touch the edge, and something launches.

Why haiz? U are the who wanted to sell it sweat.gif

For rm500, id recommend lenovo s860. Bought it for my parents. 4000mah battery. Dont expect note 4 standars, but brand new at that price really good deal. Can keep as 2nd/backup phone.

8mp camera
2gb ram
16gb storage
Dual sim
5.3" screen tak silap
4000mah batt
720x1280 display

Id buy 1 if i need another phone. But thats just me. Maybe a used mi3?
