Game is running smooth. However, launching the game takes about 30 seconds. But who cares when P2 has the 4GB RAM. Once launched, keep it in the background. There is an option to "lock" any apps running in the background - similar to Xiaomi MIUI. Can be played via data or Wi-Fi.

Below is my gameplay (1st time playing this game... I'm not a gamer. Just ran thru quick tutorial...kind of straight-forward game and "addictive" too...LOL...Gonna keep it for awhile). The "tapping" and character reactions is like 0.25 seconds delay....so, I dunno whether this "delay" is acceptable or not...

Battery lost 3% (about 6 mins 30 secs gaming). Volume 50% - 90%.



This video is taken from Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime (3GB/32GB) running Xiaomi.EU ROM v.6.12.8.

Interesting, as I'm deciding between P2, Redmi 4 prime and Asus Zenfone 3 5.2.

Which would you recommend?

My main aim is premium build (don't want glass to break), hassle-free software and good antenna reception. I'm not a gamer and battery life not a big issue.

Thanks bro, I think is the performance is even better than redmi note 3.
200 times better than Lenovo Vibe P1..

Errr... Don't wanna turn this thread to become "buy this; buy that" thread... LOL...

My choice just between these three (even though there is better options, *cough* *cough* Mi5 or ZUK Z2 or LeEco Le Pro 3...) is ... P2:

Why? Becoz ur aims are:

Premium build (P2 > Z3 > R4P); P2 is unibody metal slim profile...

Hassle-free software (P2 > Z3 > R4P); P2 is 90% stock Android, and

Good antenna reception (P2 = Z3 > R4P); depending on ur location & telco coverage. My experience between P2 & R4P is more inclined towards P2 better call quality.

Non-important battery life (P2 > R4P > Z3); P2 tagline is "throw away powerbanks and car chargers"...LOL...

You have to test drive P2 & Z3 to feel the"premium-ness". R4P is better value for money than P2 & Z3 but MIUI ecosystem is questionable to one taste.

more less sama mcm a9 pro and mi max hehe

This is where synthetic benchmark is needed...

I was trying to upload P2 GeekBench Battery Stress scores but ended error 451. Mi Max score is about 13 hours, A9 Pro (A910F) is 12.5 hours. P2 is more than 20 hours until break the GeekBench limit...LOL..the same goes to PC Mark Battery Test. Cannot upload results to PC Mark server...

So, if I repeat the same task to Mi Max or A9 Pro, both of these devices surely cannot go beyond 5 hours SoT becoz the tasks are running in the background eating the battery while screen is off all the time.

Very different focus these 3...

P2 - amoled & big battery, almost stock Android
ZF3 - good ips & ois camera
R4P - budget with ir blaster

IMHO, if need better cam then ZF3, otherwise P2 w/ bigger screen

looks like it's maxed out at 1.9A which is rather strange. my moto x play can charge at maximum of 2.4A using QC2.0 certified charger.

Thanks for these informative replies (and dwRK)!
..now also thinking of dual-camera phones (P9/Honor 8)...too many choices, need to control!

True... phones between 1K to 1.3K is plethora... if budget is not a concern, this will make thing worse...LOL...

Insert a SD card before using the camera.... Huh.. This happen when im remove sd card to replace with 2nd sim.. Cant use camera without sd card?? Or i need to reset phone to factory reset?

Perhaps you need to properly run the "eject" command for the microSD card.

Thanks boss.. forgot to eject, since i pass my phone to mobile shop, cutting 2nd sim to nano and request to replace sd card with 2nd sim.. thats happen 😁😁😁
Btw, if we use 2 sim, no place to put sd card..

If u dare...

OMG.. 😯😯😯 if that sim stuck mean send to factory lol ..
Normally before this i can do replacement part for lenovo phone by myself.. but not now, with solid sexy metal body.. idont know how to disamble this phone..

Just throw it from highest peak of KLCC Tower then it will dissemble automatically...LOL...

Facing sdcard corruption problem.. 3 times already..turning on and off does not help. Took the card out.. Plug into galaxy note.. Everything is fine.. Plug into pc and scan for errors.. None found.. Plug back into p2 and everything is fine. As if p2 is seing an errornous card but other is not..anyone have seen this kind of problem. Any advice or fix is very much appreciated. Btw my sdcard is 64gb class 10 is not mistaken. Never seen this type of issue when on galaxy note...

Lol, i prefer normal user test vs those apps test hehe. To be fair all of the phone shouldn't have any background apps running. I do know miui n TouchWiz have security thingy running or something. But x sure about lenovo..

Will do normal user testing once my unit sampai.

Btw share by fren of mine..

Lenovo p2 (14 hours something2)
https://browser.primatelabs.com/battery3/392413

Mi max (13 hours something2)
https://browser.primatelabs.com/battery3/305366

A9 pro (12 hours something2
https://browser.primatelabs.com/battery3/387792

I assume a9 pro lesser due she have dedicated microSD thus more power usage.. vs share simcard like mi max and p2 (no mods)
