I currently have a axon 7 ..I don't really like It and I get bad battery life..how do you guys like the mi max ? How's the cameras ,battery and screen ? Is there another phone same size or bigger that's better then the mi max ? Thanks
Bigger yes, the new Zen phone ultra. Has less battery life than the max
Max has exceptional battery life and good development as well.

MI max is good. Go for it
The battery life on the Mi Max is dope. Easily getting 7-8 hours of SOT. However, the camera is total crap, despite what people say here. You compare it to anything on the market out there, and it's just crap. Don't get the phone for the camera. Get it for everything else.
Hi all,
I am thinking of buying Oneplus 3. Currently i have Nexus 5. It's a great phone running Android 7 AOSP. It's 3 years mobile and battery life is no so good.I get around 2 hours of SOT. I do facebook, instagrams, some light games and clash of clans (mostly). Will i get 4+ hours of SOT daily with like 1-2 hours of clash of clan, facebook and some music? I really like to buy Oneplus 3 but my only concern is battery life and future updates. Will Oneplus 3 be updated to antoher 2 years minimum or will it be stuck on Android N only?
Are there any users upgraded from Nexus 5? How are your experience using Oneplus 3 after the upgrade?Please share your experiences.

I upgraded from the nexus 5 when op3 came out. The software updates I would say are a little consistent. But we have not received Nougat yet. On the bright side the oneplus developer community is great.
Battery life is a lot better than Nexus 5. You will get 4+ hours sot. But it depends a lot on your cellular strength and if you are going to use your phone on wifi or on lte.

I own a nexus 5 for the last 3 yrs and now have upgraded to oneplus 3 .
Battery life is much better . I usually charge my phone in the morning around 8 am and at 8 pm i'm still left with 30% .
To compare my nexus with same usage pattern would usually run out by 4 or 5 pm .
What I have learnt by owning the nexus 5 is that at the end of the day what you want is performance with a good battery life .
OS Software updates do not matter to me that much now as not much core features are released that you can't live without or are game changers . You can most of the time fill the void with root/custom Roms/ apps etc.
I was always scared of my nexus 5 running out of juice while travelling or when on client side . I used to charge it at least twice in a day .
By comparison oneplus is much much better ....
I also upgraded from Nexus 5. What you get:
- Much better battery life
- Better display (don't worry about sharpness unless you use VR). My advice: use sRGB mode if you're used to the Nexus 5. Otherwise your eyes will burn.
- Much better camera
- Better and louder speaker
- Better call quality
- Faster unlock with your fingerprint (reliable as well)
- Better multitasking
- Better gaming (faster GPU and bigger screen)
- A more beautiful phone
What you don't get:
- Massive increase in speed (Nexus 5 is just very fast already with stock Android)
- Better software support, although I always mess around with different ROMs and there are plenty for OP3!
- Sharper display (but apart from VR really, really not necessary anyway...)
- Better audio quality through headphone jack (about the same I'd say)
I think it is really worth it! I love the battery life and I still love trying different ROMs! Plus an amoled screen is awesome
Personally, I think the only phone I might trade my OP3 for right now is the note 7 or S7 edge. But considering the price, there simply is no competition for people who want root and a great software experience!
I also came from a nexus 5 and can confirm all the above comments, managed about 2.5 hrs SOT on the nexus on a good day but the oneplus 3 I'm getting easily 4 to 5 hours per charge (and dash charge is ridiculously quick) the soc and the screen are more efficient than the nexus and the battery is 700 mAh larger so it's no surprise it lasts longer. What does surprise me is that I got max 8 hours SOT from an uleFone power that has a 6050 mAh battery so wasn't expecting the oneplus 3 to do 11/16 the SOT with 1/2 the capacity.
simple answer. yes. its a great upgrade.
I don't have a nexus 5, but I had a nexus 6..
Thank u guys for all the feedbacks.Will be getting my Oneplus 3 very soon.

congrats. good decision
Hi.
Last week I upgraded from Nexus 5 to Oneplus 3 as well. To be honest I don't see battery life much better (on nexus I use Krexus rom + bluspark kernel) and on oneplus 3 stock soft for now... Screen on oneplus 3 is amazing, camera much better, sound much louder, dash charging is amazing fast!, software is really good, as good that I don't have to put custom rom for now (most features important for me is build in already but still looks like stock android with is great!).
The only think i don't like in oneplus 3 is metal body because it's very slippery in hand, I know a lot of people love metal look but nexus 5 body was maybe not looking so good but much practical...
anyway I really like my oneplus 3! I can recommand
it's only my opinion ofcourse
Regards,

Thankx a lot for feedback. I think 4h+ screen time will be enough to last a day for me. I was worried you are getting onle 2-3 hours like in Nexus 5. :good:
I finally bought Oneplus 3. Here are my thoughts compared to my previous Nexus 5:
1) Display is good, No pixels visible with my eyes. But i liked my Nexus 5 display more.
2) Sound is louder than Nexus 5
3) Battery easily lasts 4 to 5 hours with my uses pattern.Good but not great as expected.
4) Performance is very good compared to Nexus 5.No surprise.
6) Getting used to physical navigation buttons.( intended to use physical buttons for full screen visibility) and also fingerprint scanner
7) Liked the built quality which feel solid compared to nexus 5.
Overall, very good upgrade from my Nexus 5. Haven't unlocked bootloader and rooted yet.Will tinker a bit after i get bored with Stock ROM. Also hoping to get faster Android updates than other OEM.

After the recent update i could say i was able to feel some heat only while playing games or some heavy usage.
I dont see any specific abnormal heating issues.
i'd like to say heating issue is not an issue on this phone. but very sure ppl will jump in and say they have this and it's bad, etc...
for me. i play games like Mobile Legends and Arena of Valor. no issues. no heat.
but i know that some actually complain of some heat after recording 4k video on the phone for a long time.
i've never had to record in 4K. never feel the need to. most devices can't play 4k anyway. my tv is only 1080 and my phone's only 2K (the honor 8 Pro)?!? but ya, ppl who do video editing might do that. then again, if they are into video editing, i doubt they'd be using a smartphone as recording device... so, in real world practical sense... i think it's a good phone. no heat issue.

i'm using the honor 8 Pro and i'd lie if i say there is no heat. there is when i use 4G and play games like MOBA. but usually, it's very, very little and at times it does get more only when the area has got poor reception.
is this phone "warmer" than other phones? no. if anything, i think it stays cooler than some phones I have used, including Samsung Note 2 and Note 7 or even the OnePlus One.
it does not get terribly warm or anything like that. i don't use 4K recording. so, not sure how warm the phone gets.
hope that answers your Q.

It will not heat in regular browsing and gaming.
Extended usage of camera beyond 15 or 20 minutes can make it warm and not heat.
I played real racing 3 for about half an hour and it didn't heat up at all.
The thing is people don't know the difference between heat and warm.
A device will get warm of extended usage and under extensive load. More so, if it's made of metal.

Seen that many times. People will say it's heating though it is just lukewarm.
I too had a oneplus 3. I did tons of review hunting and finally settled for Honor 8 pro. Been a month now almost, i can say i m impressed with the device. Good luck to u!!
If you have One Plus 3. You SHOULD'NT waste your money on Honor 8 Pro.
Trust me! There is ZERO difference in performance in day to day usage.
may be 10% better in Benchmarks.
Games actually perform better in OPO3 due do having an Adreno gpu and HD resolution.
Camera benefits from having more details due to 16 MP.
Battery full charge in 40 odd minutes compared to 2 hours plus on Honor 8 Pro.
H265 10 BIT HARDWARE DECODING in SD 820 compared to NADA in Kirin 960 (In short, h265 10 bit videos don't play).
So unless you're desperate for a card slot or IR blaster, there's little to NO reason for you to get Honor 8 Pro.

- Kirin 960 performs better than sd820 on op3 and some benchmarks shows it performs about the same as sd835.
- About the gpu yes, adreno a bit better. But dont worry, because later on oreo update u can change res to 1080p or 720p, so gaming performance will improve.
- Nicest design for honor 8 pro.
- Camera a lot better in honor 8 pro, bokeh effects, more details even its just 12mp compare to 16mp op3. Camera on op3 are noisy, check the comparison on website.
- Nice 2k screen on honor 8 pro.
- Battery a lot better than op3.
So apart from sd card slot and ir blaster, theres a lot things better in honor 8 pro.

I have used both the devices and have them in front of me. That's why. Real world usage. No differnece. Photo details more in Oneplus ३. Charging way faster. Plays more media formats via hardware acceleration. No point.

My young brother owns op3. Honor 8 pro camera wins all the way. The overall quality, dynamic range, contrast, sharpening, white balance, color accurate, low noise picture all wins on honor 8 pro side. Low lights picture also better than op3. Compare it with op3, pixel peeping shows op3 has some grainier and noisy photo, even my brother agrees with it. Oh did u try the wide aperture mode? Results are really nice. About the media format, u can always install mx player from play store. Sure battery charging a bit slow because of the big 4000mah capacity, but I dont mind that as it last longer in moderate usage.
Well everyone has their own opinion anyway, so heres mine. Chill.
As for me, yes, dont buy the honor 8 pro yet because honor v10 is coming out next month. Better wait for it, a lot improvement than honor 8 pro with the same price tag.

My young brother owns op3.
I only specifically mentioned about details in pictures due to having more mega pixel. No cure for that.
And I am talking about MX player only. Please try playing H265 10 bit file on it with a Honor 8 Pro.
Then do the same with Oneplus 3. You'll be surprised! One of them WONT play. One of them will play silky smooth.
Also see in settings/decoder which of the formats are hardware accelerated in both.
Kirin 960 might be raw power (Only CPU). But Snapdragon is like super refined and overall well rounded.
Performance wise no real world difference. It would be total waste to upgrade.
I am not giving my opinion but simply stating the facts as I've experienced; to help the OP make wise decision.
Hi guys,
How Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB variant compares with Mi Max 3?
I feel Mi Max 3 will be on positive side for
1. bigger battery (5500 mAh vs 5000 mAh)
2. quick charge 3
3. IR blaster
Whereas Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB variant will be on positive side for
1. Near stock android (vs MIUI)
I use Nexus 6. I do a lot reading on it. Many times I read in split screen mode in two apps (say two instances of Microsoft Word, one through ES Parallel Space). Nexus 6 has broader screen (16:9 ratio). It was launched in 2014, but still have higher resolution and pixel density than both Max 3 and Zenfone!!! This makes it best to read in split screen mode in two apps. So I feel bigger screen of Mi Max 3 will be suitable for this purpose.
Also its stock android is great. Split screen functionality of Stock Naugat is better than that of MIUI.
I also feel MIUI provides better control over backgound apps and hence battery. I live with my four year old Nexus 6 in always on battery saver mode. This helps to extend battery life to at least 1 day. If I dont use battery saver mode, it will barely last for 15 hours. Also my Nexus 6 lags quite a lot now. Opening some 40 page word docs takes at least 5 sec. Will all this be gone with both Max 3 or Zenfone?
Also Nexus 6 had great camera with OIS. Mi Max 3 have AI camera while Asus Zenfone have 16MP phone. Dont know which one will have better camera at least better than Nexus 6?
So was guessing what will be best choice for me.
Hi there. I think you are comparing apples with oranges. MM3 is 6.9, Max Pro M1 is 5.99. It is a perfect hardware match for redmi note 5 - so there you should compare. Regards!

yeah I know there is 0.9" difference.
But I am not trying to compare them with each other, but with my usage scenario. Thats why I explained how I usually use it.
Usage scenario 1: Two Microsoft Word documents in split screen mode each 40+ page.
Usage scenario 2: Satisfying camera (at least better than Nexus 6)
I believe broader screen like Nexus 6 serves better when it comes to my usage scenario 1. Zenfone seems a bit narrower. In fact, in todays market, most 6" phone is narrower than 6" Nexus 6 due to their 18:9 ratio (Nexus 6 is 16:9). Also two instances of Word should work smoothly in split screen. My 4 year old Nexus 6 lags considerably at this. I dont know what is culprit: old processor (but its 2.6GHz quad core)? slower / smaller RAM? or battery?
On paper, M1 is good but users report M1 has some problem included multitouch problem, not so good on battery/matterial quality
Ho boy.. I have Nexus 6 too. Was my daily driver until I ditched it for good with my Max 2. The worst thing about Nexus 6 was the camera, it's barely useable. Also fingerprint, the battery and SoC efficiency, I would trade AMOLED 1440p and front firing speakers for those any time of the day. Once you are in 10+ hours SOT territory you don't ever want to go back.
Also MIUI is not that bad at all, it's not as intrusive and forceful as Huawei EMUI. It looks clean and still have material design language.
Hi all.
How is your Zenfone 5Z overall performance and battery life? I am thinking to buy either Zenfone 5z or Pocophone F1.

Zenfone 5z is better than Poco F1 in almost every aspect, except -
Battery life (Just about adequate - 5-6hr SOT),
Face Unlock (Camera based & less reliable)
Front Cam (Not good on 5z)
5z has better RAM management, lot of 'AI' stuff helping in faster app launches, battery management/charging (btw, charges from 0-100 in 1 hr) and so on...
5z is worth the extra cost considering all the extra features you're getting and is close to a flagship experience rather than budget phone with flagship processor in POCO.

5Z has Better build quality and display and software than poco f1.
I get like 6 Hours SOT , display is the best in its segment. Front Camera not good but can be improved using gcam port which i am using and there is significant difference. Updates also good. Just got one today that fixed some issues with youtube and notch hiding feature.
Good if you get it under 25k. Poco phone build is not premium but 5z is a flagship premium device in all aspects. But not upto iphone level.
display seems warmer
I have bought the device ,got the Indonesian made device in india , The display I got to know is warmer display though it is of good quality but white color is not pure white ,its always yellowish compared to my older moto g5s plus or any other , On googling got to know asus does this eith every zenfone ...! Everybody do a little white color comparison ,let we know about other china made devices .

Can easily adjust display according to your preferences by using adjusting color temperature and more in display settings.
Do you guys know where I can buy online because there is no Zenfone 5z available in the country I live in (Singapore)?
A small ( though we manage) hearing problem on calls
I forgot to mention previously ,while making a call the front speaker has slight plastic like irritating sound which I don't get in earphones and the loud speaker . I think its only my device maybe , and I don't want the device to be opened in the service center ,so will be adjusting myself with it , Though the device is much powerful and attractive in its way , this and the warmer display (can be tweaked but not getting that pure ) is the only minor drawbacks for me .
Works great no lag battery can get me through the work day. 5 to 7 hours sot depending on if I'm on LTE or wifi. Few small complaints...no option to turn on volte which Asus claims the phone supports and just wondering when we are going to get pie. Everything else is nearly flawless to me

how bad front camera is?

Well.. The quality of output from front camera is decent, but with less details compared to other front cams in this price range as they are equipped with 16/20 MP units. Then there's the software part - exposure, colour science etc feels relatively less pleasing (subjective though) to POCO F1 or most of the phones at this price, especially for the untrained eyes.
I have a strong feeling that Asus may improve the software part though OTA updates. Or else mods can make the most out of it (not experienced enough to give an expert opinion on this).
it's very fast and it can handle a lot. games run very smooth and there are really no big issues.
the only complaints I have are that the software buttons are not perfect and sometimes hide on their own and you have to swipe up from the bottom to get them again
also, i've had a problem with very bad gps reception, i tried everything, even a hard reset, but what fixed it was an ADB Sideload of the stock fw downloaded from asus website.
apart from that I have to say that i'm liking this phone a lot
