Lelong, lazada n lenovo shop@suplier

Actually amoled already gone cheaper than standard lcd since last year.

Cheaper to manufacture but demand is so high and usually companies are short of supply that's why it eventually becomes more expensive. Because since AMOLED is better than LCD, at least that is what majority prefers, it becomes hard to meet the demands. Hence AMOLED screen phones are still expensive.

This is where Apple is so smart not to adopt AMOLED in their previous product lineups. Use old dated IPS is cheap and easy to outsource.

Now that AMOLED is "reasonably" priced, I don't see why phone manufacturers reluctant to adopt AMOLED in their mid-tiers segments. Perhaps the demand is still higher than supply...

Hence, replacing a broken AMOLED screen will still be expensive compared to IPS LCD, which, the main reason most of us opt for tempered glass or some sort of protector(s).

Below is the cost for Sammy devices:

We can safely assume the P2 screen cost is NOT MORE than the A7 (2016)...

FYI...

Same issue like P2... tiny audio recorded by Redmi Note 4 Pro... only the first 0.5 second is loud... after that, the NOISE CANCELLING MIC aggressively suppresses all audio....

Rumor says IP8 will be using Samsung AMOLEDS.

Hi Sir,

Does this mean all phone that have 625 chipset having the same issue?

Tq

Nope. Nothing to do with Snap625 or other hardware. We have evaluated others as well below:

RN4P also suffers the same Noise Cancelling Mic plague...LOL... Whereas, H6X is doing great for both vix and audio quality...

Forward to timeline 2:57...



Redmi 4 Prime is affected too:



More Noise Cancelling Noise nasty effect....forward to timeline 3:10 below:



However, Moto Z Play (which is also Snap 625), does NOT have Noise Cancelling Mic syndrome...

Trivia...



Based on pix above, which is the sole activity to achieve 3 hours SoT with 10% energy...?

A. Offline navigation via Google Map for 3 hours non-stop.
B. YouTube on Wi-Fi for 3 hours non-stop.
C. Streaming video on NAS for 3 hours non-stop.
D. Gaming Asphalt 8 on Wi-Fi for 3 hours non-stop.
E. Browsing and social media on data for 3 hours non-stop.

Ahh maybe it's the os..

Lol, i manage to finish up my p2 battery via downloading quite a no of file from youtube post 3g or 4g mode of coz

And it just stays like warm all the time....

I had been followed this thread quite some times, and discovered this noise cancelling mic issue quite troublesome. Would it affects whatsapp/wechat voice recording message?

Yes up to certain ambient noise environment. If you VoIP (via WhatsApp, WeChat, Skype, etc) in a noisy environment, your voice might be tiny on the other's party. But if in quiet environment (say, in toilet or living room with TV is on), your voice will be normal.
