Guys i am a phone noob la. I really need to know this kind of cheap phone can last how long till it become laggy? What the manufacturer have in mind when they build this kind of phone?
Bcs if this phone is just meant to be use for 1 year then throw, i think it will be cheaper in the long run to buy a phone like s8 right? How long do you guys think this phone can last for?
actually u will never know how long can a phone lasts.. LOL in term of hardware or software aspect.. if a moderate hardware maybe can lasts u about 1.5~2y without laggy.. a flagship maybe can lasts u 3~5 years..
but sometime u have hardware failure in 2/3 years time.. always recommend to buy & enjoy now..
so far this is android one phone which xiaomi & google collaborate and work together.. google will support software update as per promised. software part - cleared.. hardware part - snapdragon 625, one of popular mid range chipset.. probably may refer more article and choose the best suit smartphone for yourself.. probably u may list down your priority features for your usage
there are some features in flagship but seldom people will use it like NFC, DSEX, LDAC, NFC Payment type, note 8 pen, MHL, and etc.. look for what u want and get it..
some of colleagues buy for Apple / top flagship smartphone, but in the end use for social media apps, after 2 years, cannot ady.. change again..
