A few questions for people who bought this phone:
1. is the fingerprint scanner capacitive or a pressable button?
2.fingerprint scanner reliable/ fast?

1. It's both actually. The most convenient FP scanner design:
Unlock when device offscreen/sleep = Just tap FP.
Recent/background apps navigation = LONG tap FP.
Home navigation = PRESS the FP.
Back navigation = Single tap FP.

You may also enable on-screen navigation bar. There is no recent app and back capacitive buttons on either sides of FP scanner, which IMHO not necessary in today's standard.

2. FP is 100% reliable and fast. I don't think you are allowed to test FP performance in the retail store, unless with permission from Sales Executive.

P2 display unit is already available in Lowyat Lenovo store, the one near KFC.

That time I went there and ask for the Phab 2 Pro, the sales guy had no idea about it and introduced me to the P2 instead.

Ya...we know its a power bank...

Awesome

The finger print reader, need to press to wake up the phone then only can scan or straight can scan, wake and unlock the phone?

Meizu does almost everything with the home button for donkey years now...good to see others coming around... Looks like I'd be at home with this...

It's active FP. Just tap. No need to press like Sammy or Meizu...

But Meizu from sleep is passive FP. Need to press to unlock....

Charging rate using stock "Rapid Charger" and stock cable:


8% to 24% in 15 minutes... (While OnePlus 3 Dash Charge can achieve 30% in 15 minutes for 3,000 mAh capacity)
8% to 36% in 30 minutes... (While OnePlus 3 Dash Charge can achieve 63% in 30 minutes for 3,000 mAh capacity)
8% to 49% in 45 minutes... (While OnePlus 3 Dash Charge can achieve 86% in 45 minutes for 3,000 mAh capacity)
8% to 62% in 60 minutes... (While OnePlus 3 Dash Charge can achieve 95% in 60 minutes for 3,000 mAh capacity)
8% to 73% in 75 minutes... (While OnePlus 3 Dash Charge can achieve 99% in 75 minutes for 3,000 mAh capacity)
8% to 85% in 90 minutes... (While OnePlus 3 Dash Charge can achieve 100% in 80 minutes for 3,000 mAh capacity)
8% to 92% in 105 minutes...
8% to 96% in 120 minutes...
8% to 99% in 135 minutes...
8% to 100% in 136 minutes (aka 2 hours 16 minutes for 5100mAh battery capacity... marvelous!!!)

Let's see what happen after 80%. Trickle charge should be activated at 80%...

Dang... seing the pics made me wanna go out and buy it now. Anyway, that black thing, where they put the sim ejector, kind of look like a battery - for a moment there I was disillusioned thinking that it has a removable battery (would've made it even better than it is)...

come on, take some sample pictures from the camera itself and show us.

P2 is not marketed as Multimedia (though the DAC can output "up to" 24-bit audio...quite impressive...VR...? just meh...) nor Camera-centric device... expect bad camera performance from the "legacy" Sony IMX258 sensor...

bolded part... in 75 minutes it charges 65% (73-8). 65% of 5100mAh is 3315mAh already.

Good to hear almost like stock UI. Previously I have used Lenovo with it's Vibe UI, it gets old pretty fast.

If the bootloader can be unlocked and source code released, I'm sure there will be developer that release custom ROM with black theme.

Wow more than 20 hours, I think this phone get the crown for longest SOT.

Hows the phone? Looks great for that price

wow look nice, might buy as a second hp working side by side with my current A9 pro

Trickle charge is activated once reach 80%... So, 65% is still "Rapid" Charge status... hence, bigger battery is better because within 75 minutes (1 hour 15 minutes), P2 already has 3315mAh battery capacity...

So, say, early in the morning take shower and prep for 1 hour, the device has about 50% battery (ie 5100mAh / 2 = 2550mAh capacity ready for whole day....

Unfortunately, the Geekbench 3 Battery Stress Test gave error...LOL... maybe due to the log-file is too long until fail to record further...

Will give full in-depth review after 7 day usage.... ETA = 16 Dec noon... stay tune....

For the launching price, it is "reasonable" comparing to ZenFone 3, Huawei Nova Plus and other Snap625~4GB~32GB groups.... P2 has it's own potential and capabilities...
