They released the base model Phab 2 and the Pro, but I haven't seen or heard anything about the Plus model. Did they change their mind on releasing this one?
I got the Phab 2 Plus.

And what are your impressions?
Well it's good to know it was finally released. I haven't seen much news about it at all.

Can you give a review about the camera please? and is the size bothering?
I doubt the phone gets released in the US. The phab 2 is just dead for development and no one sea that interested in the pro version yet either. There's no official support ROM for either one from the US market either witch means buying a phone with little or no support. Typical from Chinese sadly.

1 month, loving it !
Battery al day long, big screen and no so heavy or slow :fingers-crossed:
Anyone as come from the Oneplus 5 to Honor 8 Pro?
After having returned my OP5 i'm seriously considering H8Pro
Is it a good alternative performance wise? Better? Worst?
As an Amoled lover ... will I be disappointed with the LCD H9Pro screen as to it's deep blacks and vibrant colors?
Will the 2K display compensate for not being Amoled like the one in OP5?
Thanks :good:

I've used both the devices. I'm using the Honor 8 pro at this moment. Both the phones are very snappy but 1+5 surely has an edge plus Indian variant of Honor 8 pro gets warm at the back side with light usage too which is no the case with OnePlus 5 with the same exact usage! Display? I'll prefer the one on Honor 8 pro for the 2k res & it's very good looking too (it's very marginal difference, nothing noticeable)

Sadly it is having emmc! Is it safe to assume that all Indian Honor 8 Pros are having EMMC as the price is far cheaper than the Global variant! Plus 6+128 model available!

Yup that seems true but then why are they supplying ufs 2.1 versions to reviewers.
Outright cheating.

My opinon- Reviewers received the Global variant (maybe, just maybe) which had UFS! But yes that's not fair as I see many people asking about the same and they are also worried about the heating issue (not uncomfortable though) as they bought the device by watching those "early reviews"

A little but my major problem was that I could not connect to my home router
Only managed to connect to my Devolo 1200+ and not all the times.
Many people have other Wi-Fi problems like drops and speed.
Really bad the Wi-Fi quality on OP5.

All the reviewers have ufs variant and that's why they are getting better performance on their units. All others have emmc and thus, degraded performance.

No european buyers here yet that can confirm it europe is receiving emmc or ufs?
Had the Honor 8Pro before the OP5 and OP5 is way better. '(Germany - Got the Honor from Netherlands)
Storage was EMMC - Which really enerved me + at that point in time (1 month after release) no root in sight little XDA coverage etc-
Sent it back within the 14 day period.
Both are nice phones but the op5 is IMHO better.

If it would be about the phone only, I'd go with Honor 8 pro but, given the fact I value the development strength when ever I get the chance to get a phone, I'll go with OP5 (if I can buy it :silly: )

If it's true then, it's a bummer.
They sent UFS equipped device so they just appear faster in speed tests
nice trick by honor , well played this time
Would someone who owns this device please confirm if...
Zenfone 5/5Z has a metal (aluminium) or glass back?
Zenfone 5/5Z has a notification LED (one color or multicolor)?
Zenfone 5/5Z has an FM radio receiver?
Thanks in advance.

Strangely I don't think there is an app listed for it but there is an icon on the pull down quick settings. Run it from there and it should load. You have to have headphones plugged in for it to work.
You're right, it works.

I haven't noticed this problem. I don't play games so I'm not sure how well it works with them but mine works fine with browsing and other apps.
6:25 of mostly youtube and chrome browsing, bluetooth is always on paired to my smartwatch, as well as wifi and 4G.

What's the probleme? Any Idea? It's very difficult to got one. On aliexpress, impossible to find one...

Yeah, weird thing about that model. One day I bought one from some AliExpress seller, 2 days later it went from 310$ to 380$. Guess I bought it just in time.

Someone is salty.
I find the Max 3 to be one of the best phones I've had so far. But this is coming from someone that loves big screen / battery phones.

I agree... I got the three Mi Max. The third is clearly the best one.
I've the 2 and love it. Have just ordered the 6/128 from tradingschenzen as the bigger screen area, better camera and faster proc are all really appealing. My only worry is the lack of custom roms (currently rocking msm extended and love it on the 2) but once I can root for adblock, afwall and debloating I'll be happy.

It's the best phone in the 25k segment. Buy it in Flipkart discounted sales where price us as low as 22k. Good software, good cameras, a few minor bugs.
This phone will be getting the Android Q update when it releases.

It's a decent device and you can be ok with 3300 MAH battery , corning gorrilla glass. 3 and lcd display..
go ahead buy it .. Its prices has been reduced and its the best that can be offered by snapdragon 845.
If not you can buy one plus 6T as well.

hi,
I would say avoid it at the moment. There is much price gap with Zenfone 6 and it is a far better phone. If you dont want the Zenfone 6 you can even look at the Redmi k20 pro or the normal variant whichever come to India
I would say it depends on the price, for example in my country I manage to get it at a lower price that the pocophone f1( 350 USD).

Once the Zenfone 6 is available the 5z should drop to at least 300 to 350

Why anyone will think about purchasing a device which doesn't seem to interest xda developer. Earlier there were few hopes but customization of zenfone 5z almost always leads to bricking of device and there's little to no support for unbricking. You won't even be certified on Google Play once u root using the tool provided by asus, making the device completely unsafe for daily use, There are lots of device with great xda support, find out them and forget about zenfone 5z, believe me all they did with ZenUI is limited the device day by day with each new release and soon there'll a day when you hardly get to do anything apart from calling.

Its a very good phone with 845...and an OIS which Z6 lacks....I got 8GB-256GB for 24k in flipkart offer...Wanted to go for 1+7...but after looking at this deal ..i grabbed it...with latest pie update antutu score was 294500 ...Battery drains fast when you play games at high resolution....that is the only issue i found....
