1. Brand - Any

2. Budget - About 2k+.

3. Specs - Large screen 5" and above.

4. What you need in the phone -
GPS and Waze
Social media and messaging (Facebook, Linkedin, WhatsApp)
Web browsing
Some emailing (Gmail, Microsoft OWA)
Not much work, but can open documents without lagging too much
Decent camera (not a photography buff)

Currently have a 3 year old Samsung Note II. It's lagging and hanging. Using a custom ROM on it.

Thinking of the Note 5, but I could only stand the original Note II software for less than a year before I had to root it and install a more streamlined ROM. Not sure if newer Samsung phones are better now.

Basically, I'm looking for something that can last about 3 years so I don't have to keep reinstalling stuff like on the Note II that I'm having. I just want it to work, since my office work already requires me to install and customise new systems all the time. biggrin.gif

Hi sifus, pls help me. Thanks in advance.

1. Brand : Any
2. Budget. Less than RM1100
3. Specs. At least 2GB ram, 5.5 inch and above but must not above 6 inch,
4. What you need in the phone. Web browsing, FB, Whatsapp. No heavy games. Just a quite okay camera will do. Actually my preference is the screen size. My wish is bigger than 5.5" but not many choices with my budget set. Or do I miss something here?

Currently using Lenovo Vibe Z but just Kong today. Eyeing RN3 5.5", Huawei Honor 5X 5.5", Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE601KL 6".

Thanks again to all of u.

Thanks to your recommendation. NR 3 is very tempting but need to wait. Honor 5X also not bad. Zenfone 2 Laser 6" ZE601KL also not bad but less info to get. I heard its dual sim can hold 4G n no need to switch sim b'cause both can up at least 3G one at a time. Maybe I am wrong?
Still very confusing....... cry.gif
