Well, the Asus has better processor, and battery, and as i've read camera, so i don't know, it depends most on the size of the phone you want, but I would go for the Asus, but is something personal, just watch some reviews of them and do what you feel more confortable with, both of them will make it for 3 years of usage if you take care.
Might want to look at the Elephone P7000. Potential for official CM12, probably will have decent dev support and really nice specs for the price.
go for ASUS its more open source than Lenovo.
Elephone P7000 is a good looking device also and Elephone P6000 it has cm12.1 Rom.

Hey everyone , i know its a bit too late to buy a "Flagship" Device especially after 2 years but since my budget constraints it sooooo.... anyway my question is that i wasnt able to find 32Gig with 3GB ram so buying 2GB variant is a good idea ? i have seen lags on Nexus 5x and a reason why i didnt consider it , since G3 is an all rounder so i thought of buying it , Do you suggest me to buy it ? would it offer a satisfactory performance ? (i am not a fan of snapdragon 810/820) , i have been using Galaxy Note 3 (SD 800) and was never disappointed with it

Dont have 16 gb but 32gb with 3gb ram good choice but the orginal d855 not the refurbished one...also i think MM is the last official update for lg g3....but you can update non stock rom if you scrifice little bit camera quality....think so
I have had the 16GB D855 model for over a year now and handles everything I throw at it. Granted I cant comment on the stock firmware as I have been using Fulmis ROM, which in my opinion is the best stock based ROM on LG G3. Especially with all the tweaks, mods and the new UX 5.0 user interface included in the ROM.
Good day friends. I look forward to your most stable, trouble-free, ROM recommendations for Lenovo k5 plus

Hey guys
So I'm here asking about the question in the title
I want to know whether the kernel sources are released by OEM or not ?
And I'm getting this phone for only 15K INR
Is there any android developement like custom roms possible on this phone ?? OR should I buy redmi note 4 which has a better support ??
I don't want to switch devices for few more years
Please help me here
That are two phones hard to compare.. snapdragon 820 vs 625, 5inch vs 5.5inch etc, fingerprint on front vs on the back etc... how should we know what you need or want?
Both are great..
And for custom roms > how about if you look into the roms, kernels, recovery.. section? Dont be so lazy man

Warning: Very long story
My purchase of 3Gb variant of Redmi Note 4 was final but could not buy it (everything happens for a good) as delivery was not available by flipkart in my area. I was very sad and finally decided to buy a new, seal packed Redmi Note 3 from ebay at Rs. 9300 (Rs. 10400 was listed price, after applying coupons it became Rs. 9300) as it had performance and recently got franco kernel too (previously available only on Pixels, Nexus and One Plus devices). Finally saw Lenovo Z2 Plus on Snapdeal for Rs. 12000 and immediately purchased it (was hesitant at first reading reviews on Amazon but could not resist SD 820 at this price).
The phone is great, no heating issues and was much better than Redmi Note 3 (Screen quality, camera quality, general performance, looks) when compared side by side as my friend had one. Battery is also good, I get 5-6 hours Screen on time on 4G network with hotspot on and around 7-8 hours SoT on WiFi.
About development, both devices have great roms but Redmi Note 4 has no custom kernel as kernel source codes are not released currently but may or will get them in future when sources are released. Also if you want to be like a trickster and change TV channels of any TV in lobby of any hospital/Hotel, go for Xiaomi phones as they have IR blaster.
The Z2 Plus recently got official Nougat whereas Redmi Note 3 and 4 are still on Marshmallow but that does not matter as you are planning to use a custom rom and all three have 7.1.2 Nougat custom roms.
Conclusion
If you like very good developer support with some good performance, go for Redmi Note 3
If you like development with superior battery life, go for Redmi Note 4
If you want a phone with sheer raw power and the one that does not slow down even after 3 years and a great value for money and brag among friends, go for Z2 Plus.
Currently Z2 Plus is available at Rs.13000 at Snapdeal but wait for amazon sale on 11th, previously at an Amazon sale, it was available for 12K and if you get any bank discount (sometimes 10 to 15% off on SBI Card etc during sale), you can get it for 10-11K too.
Go for the black one, it looks very good
Hope this helps
You can also watch reviews and comparison of phones on youtube for better decisions.

I am absolutely agree with hp5942's statements. Development for Z2 is only growing, it will be awesome in a few months. Note 3 has one of the best dev support and will have it for a long time. Note 4 is better looking and feeling than Note 3, but it is less speedy device.
I'm fine with front mounted finger print sensor
I want to use device for at least 2-3 years
Which one do you suggest me ?

For long run always go with the phone with more performance.
My friend still has no performance issues with his Mi4 (SD 800, flagship at that time) even after 2.5 years.

yeah..this phone worth what u paying for.
Why do you guys confuse much. Its good phone for the price. For 13k you are getting snap 820
Its like for the price of audi you getting buggati
Why to get confused. There are minor software hiccups. As you are familiar with xda you can always use custom roms
Hardware wise there are no issues. Build quality is damm solid. I have thrashed my phone many times, but it still survives.
Back glass is lil fragile.
Should i buy lenovo z2 plus now at 12k?

This phone was a worthy buy @18K, it's definitely a steal @12k, but if you can wait, BigBillionDay/GreatIndian sale is around the corner, you might get an even sweeter deal.

I bought z2 plus(4,64gb) @ 9.5k from amazon
(Actually 11k - 1.5k cashback)
So wait for any amazon sale
May be buy it on Diwali
For those not used to pimp their phones (unlock bootloader, flash rom etc...), i think Zuk Z2 is not a good choice as the original version is not perfect. But if you like to flash and customize your phone, so yes, 10 times yes,it's a very good phone (have it for almost 1 year and still happy with it).
Hi,
I am confused between redmi 4 or z2 plus. I am considering Z2 because I was using mi4 earlier and I want to try some other UI other than MIUI.
Is the extra 4000 worth spending if I don't play a lot games and the usage is pretty much basic. And i wont be installing any custom rom. i don't want to buy redmi note 4.
Has z2 improved after the nougat update as many channels on YouTube has pointed out heating and camera issues?
Kindly help.

This device is really good, I never had any heating issues nor camera issues, it is more powerful than redmi 4 prime (my brother have one) but not as beautiful. But if you really don't want to flash any custom rom, then take the redmi 4 prime, zui is really not good. Its problem is not the performance or heating but the design and ergonomy. It is catastrophic.
Ps take redmi 4prime not redmi 4 if you choose it
Doesn't worth it.
Thanks a lot. That was really helpful.
