Hi forumers. Need help on buying a new budget phone, since current one random restarts nowadays.
Also need to know if phones are different in Europe? I'm going there for a couple months, mostly phone not region locked or anything, right (noob in phones)?

1. Brand: doesn't really matter, as long as operating on android. But want to try other than Samsung.
2. Budget: max at RM650
3. Minimum specs: 1.2Ghz, 2GB RAM, 16GB internal storage, OS at least Lollipop, 4G support, dual sim card support, micro SD support
4. What you need in the phone: not much other than the specs above. Main concern are battery life and durability though. Camera and screen quality is just a plus, not a necessity. Build preferably good one lah.

Got ah?

Redmi Note 3 the mediatek version is just nice if u dun do gaming or gps much. But if u do both, better go for the Snapdragon version, which cost a bit more.

So far my Mi3 is doing fine, plan to upgrade during year end, maybe Oneplus 3. The only draw back for my 2 year old Mi3 is the battery life is bad dy. Redmi Note 3 should have better battery life with 4000mah battery size.

ap is imported so warranty is from shop that imports.
original is from manudacturer, so the warranty can be claimed from official shops or manufacturer.

Sony Xperia XA Ultra or Samsung Galaxy A7(2016)? Or maybe top up abit for galaxy A9 pro is a better choice?
Im using Xperia Z for almost 3 years, so i want a new phone that will last as long as the one im using.
I just know that XA ultra is huge and has much higher megapixels but with low mAh battery and A7 seems like a stable phone but not much different with the A5(2016) in term of price and spec (1 GB ram and size)

Based on ur list of XA Ultra, A7 and A9 Pro. I would top up for A9 Pro. 32gb internal, 4gb ram, newer processor SD652, huge battery too at 5000mah.

But based on the price of A9 Pro, i feel that u might as well go for the Oneplus 3, flagship processor, 6gb ram, 64gb internal, around the same price. The only thing is battery smaller capacity compared to A9 Pro.

It's either P9 or OP3 for me. Maybe u can try to hands on for both phones first. Can go to DirectD, they have a lot of display models for diff phones. If u can live without app drawer, P9, if u wan stock android feel, OP3. Plus I think Op3 GPS will perform better than P9. Snapdragon processor generally have gud GPS chip.

Other than that, can consider Mi5, LG G5 (import set), Huawei Mate 8.

Huawei's launcher usually have no app drawer. Something like Iphone's UI. Every app is just displayed on the screen. There is no menu button. Similar like Xiaomi's MIUI.

But of coz to counter this, u can always install Google Now Launcher or Nova Launcher. smile.gif

typically, china brand phone will have user interface like this.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Which is something similar to Iphone's user interface. Everytime u install an app, it will appear on ur phone's 'desktop'. U will have to group those app into folders to make ur 'desktop' look organized and clean.

While for other phone like Samsung or Oneplus' UI, everytime u install an app, the app won't appear in the 'desktop'. They have an app drawer for that.

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Those apps only appear when u tap on the bottom middle white icon.
