performance of honor 5c is much better compared to honor 5x, its not snapdragon, just the clock speed, cores and optimisation that matters, kirin is powerful as snapdragon,in some cases even more powerful #mate9.
the only let down is developer support

we only need 4 cores, 8, 10 is wasted as no apps use that many or are optimized to. maybe in a few years

i didnt mention about the number of cores. there are many other things like the platform, architecture, and why should we stick with 4 cores if a kernel can intelligently use 8 cores based on the usage????

i get advancing technology etc, but there is no point in phones having 10 cores in the helio's as they still cant catch up to snapdragon 8xx's overall performance. they are slowly catching up tho and do they really save that much battery life by switching between cores?
But latest kirin is better than the latest SD 821 series(mate 9 vs the Google pixel) check performance review on Xda... battery, performance everything much better than SD 82x series.

The kirin beats it in geekbench scores but SD beats kirin in antutu. The gpu isn't great in the kirin either
For my part I bought this phone about one month and a half ago, I came from a Wiko Wax 4G I bought two years ago at 180€ (approximately the same price as the Honor 5C nowadays) and I'm very happy of this new phone.
The screen is great, without being incredible, the fact it's a 1080p screen is a really good point too. Also, it's maybe the fastest phone for this price range. That being said, I don't know US-specific devices, I leave in french so I only know french devices but for that I've seen that's the best you can find under 200$.

hi
i'm willing to upgrade my current 3 years old note 8 , i'm thinking in picking this m2 but i'm not sure if i should go for it or should i go for a samsung tab s2 or ipad mini 2/3 with 4:3 aspect ratio , i mainly use my tab to watch movies so please share ur opinion depending on that.
also please mention the screen on time u are able to get on this device
I think u should forget M2 tablet, look at the new M3 instead.

Wow, so you'll work on cm / LineageOS for this device now? Epic if you do, there's sources released for this device too
I've had this tab for a week now, and so far I've been really pleased, the battery life is great because Huawei has a built-in battery saver mod that closes almost all apps and processes when the screen is off, the standby drain is almost nonexistent. I upgraded from an iPad Mini 2, and I'm really loving the bigger screen, I don't play any graphically intensive games, so the performance is more than enough for me too. The screen is also very good for an LCD panel, the colors are vibrant and blacks are black
Only 2 cons I've found so far is that the display is a bit warm-toned, this doesn't bother me because you can adjust the color temperature from the settings under display (I think the adjusting feature is there for the exact reason). The other con is that the build quality on the displays part is not the best, if I'm holding the tablet up, the display can be a little bit detached from the body and make a small sound when pressed on to, meaning the attachment is not perfect at certain points
But otherwise the build quality is great, and the price to value ratio is one of the best ever in my opinion, would recommend this to anyone who uses a tablet for media usage and light gaming :good:
But the
I,ve had mine for 6 months, excellent if a little-limited power wise (CPU/mem) Screen on time for browsing is for me 8+ hours & easily 6 for 720p video streamed over wifi & a little longer if stored on the tab. Screen is bright/clear and very good. Sound is awesome for a 10" tab. I got this to use alongside my old Nexus 10.
You're better off buying the Mediapad X2 as it has a much smaller footprint.
HUAWEI MediaPad M2 8.0 device just crap, I hope no one will ever buy that kind of crap. Nothing works, does not updates.
I went for a tab s2 , every thing is going good except it's speaker quality , I'm still getting used to it's 4:3 aspect ratio but I still prefer my old note 8 16:9 aspect ratio

I'm thinking of getting a new phone and the two most appealing to me are the Zenfone 6 and the OnePlus 7 (non Pro). In the UK they're the same price for the same specs, so I'm left to decide on other features.
The Pros I can think of for the OP7 are:
OIS Camera
OLED Screen
Some Waterproofing
In display fingerprint scanner
No moving parts so greater durability
And the Pros for the Zenfone 6:
Wide angle camera
No Notch
Headphone Jack
Customisable Button
5000mAh Battery
Micro SD Card Slot and Dual SIMs
From these lists I can't decide completely on one or the other, does anyone have any thoughts as to which one would be better?
I'm completely lost too...
I too am torn!!
I've got the Mi 9 and feeling a restless....
I would say: go for the OnePlus if you are keen on the OLED, choose the Asus if you want the rest.
(Btw: you missed the dual sim card slot the sd card slots)
I'm going with the Zenfone 6. The bigger battery and flip camera alone have me sold.

In display fpr may feel futuristic and cool to play with bu a regular capacitive fpr is much more functional and faster, in other words better in the long term everyday usage. It's definitely a win for the Zenfone 6 in my opinion.

Exactly. Two idfp sensors I tried drove me crazy w inaccuracy,then u add bit dirtier hands or naturally greasy fingers and u can f*** yourself rather than unlock your phone.
That's why I'm looking into Asus Zenfone 6 or LG G8 and nothing else.
I have exactly the same dilemma...
I'm about to order it from China anyway so ... no warranty...
Kind of afraid after reading about the Zenfone here (Some people have problems with camera mechanism, some with screen on low brightness)

Could be spotty QC in the beginning for Asus. I suppose that flipping camera isn't the easiest to make.
Mine is fine though and I didnt notice flickering on low brightness so far.
There is notification led on asus and nothing on op7

How is this a pro??? More like a Huge step back..
Not forgetting Asus Zenfone 6's 4k 60fps video recording for both rear and front camera! You get natural bokeh (video too) from the camera itself, not those artificial blurring!
And the EIS seems to be better when comparing to OP7 Pro's OIS, although the video seems cropped.
I will give this to OnePlus 7,
Cons:
Headphone jack and waterdrop notch(not a con for me)
Pros:
Amoled,
usb 3.1,
ufs 3.0, fantastic camera(no ultrawide though, but how much u use it?),
OxygenOs,
amazing community support (when other phones will be struggling in fixing motorized camera. Op7 will be rocking a lineage/carbon/rr/aosip/pixel exp)
Guaranteed two major os upgrades. Android Q R S or whatever,
Stereo speakers,
Last but not least Highest benchmarks in Antutu, 3dmark, geekbench.
Zenfone might be good but it will need atleast 2-3 years in order to compete with Oneplus as they are trying what OnePlus has already achieved.
Actually community support for 7 is lackluster compared to pro model.

OP7 is just now getting out there. There's also support across versions, especially since the 7 is just an upgraded 6T. There are several Magisk based roms that crossed models.
Op7(128)available for 30999 with sbi card, 6z(128) is 34999.....
Put two phones side by side and the note 9 screen is crisper and more focused.
Is super AMOLED better then dynamic?
Also there is no bottom home button anymore.
I used to press the bottom to wake the phone without having a finger print saved.

is your note 10 on 1080p or 1440p? and also what is note 9 on?
I was thinking that also. I was watching the same movie Endgame on both at the same time. The note 9 seems slightly better. Adaptive display mode is not available on the note 10 only vivid. Both phones were the unlocked version.
If you have the note 10 and not the PLUS, they YES your note 9 has a better, higher Res screen. Note 10 is only 1080p.
yeah the 10+ is superior to the 9 side by side if you have it setto WQHD+ out of the box it's only set to WHD+, if you are on the standard 10 it's only a 1080 screen so it is just a worse screen, the 10+ is the upgrade from the 9, the standard 10 is a budget model.

Yes I just got mine and I think this is something a lot of people will stumble over. You ave to change the resolution to WQHD+ otherwise you're running 1080p on a native 1440p screen(Never Never Never do this).. That said this was true on the note 8 ad note 9 as well.

makes sense in a way, but would be better if it popped up as an option with reasoning during setup, then people would actually be aware of the setting.
I used to be one of those guys that compare and nitpick about pixels, sharpness,color etc. I've since realized that my eyes will get used to whatever device I'm using after a week. At the most after 3 weeks. But to chime in. I can't tell much difference with my note 9 and note 10 .

The average person probably doesn't know what WQHD+ is so it makes sense for it to ship at the lower resolution.

Or people could just go exploring. If it popped up every single option that could be missed by a user the Samsung UI would be way more over bearing than it already is.
Everything is a click away and there is also a manual packed inside.
I'd roll the dice that the vast majority of the consumer market that doesn't know what an XDA is ain't stressing this. Hell how many people don't even bother changing their wallpaper.
How does WQHD+ affect battery life? I'm currently on FHD+ but interested in knowing how much less battery life I'd get.

I suggest you try them both and see your results as we all run different apps etc on our mobiles. Battery life can vary vastly from one user to the next. :good:
Hey, guys!
I'm about to make a big purchase decision (yes, I call buying a phone under $450 a big decision!). After some research, my choices were filtered to these two devices as they offer the best value for money. If you were in my situation, which one would you choose and why? are there any options to consider?
P.S: If this post is redundant or exists somewhere else on the forum, please point me to that discussion. Thanks!
Depending on your needs. Note 10 has a better camera. Poco f3 has the better chip. The pictures from Poco are fine and the Mediathek is not bad.
As someone who had both you can't go wrong with either.
Decided to go with the F3 in my case.
The F3 is faster, you can even feel it in the UI but it isn't to say the Note 10 pro is bad but you do feel the difference, no way around it.
If you're sensitive to some random stutters or plan on any gaming be sure to get the F3 as the note 10 pro can't game very well (gets hot and throttle) while the F3 is a champ in the performance category.
The camera in the note 10 pro is better but I didn't notice a night and day difference between them.
The F3 camera is what I'll call average, there are better out there but if the lighting's good both will do great, the main difference is at night but because the note 10 pro doesn't have OIS don't expect it to be flagship level.
To conclude, in my opinion, the difference in camera's between the 2 isn't anything major but the difference in performance is so I believe the F3 is the better choice.

Yes, I agree fully.
However, there's some upsides from using Redmi Note 10 Pro (I had both too at one point)
- More custom roms (if you're into that)
- Headphone jack
- It's just as fast (if you're using a custom rom and not playing games)
- I think also better battery life but I might be wrong
- The colorways are better imo
The upsides of Poco F3
- Wayyy better build quality (except the speaker grills and charging port - they're kinda sharp tbh)
- Audio quality is somehow way better with the Poco even though you'll have to use the adapter for headphones. Another thing to mention is I think the adaptor itself is proprietary since I couldn't use it on other devices.
- Better speaker quality
- Better screen
- Wayyyy faster storage speed
- It's gonna last way longer due to the chipset
- Accessories and skins are way easier to find
What's good on both phones
- Both look good
- 120hz screens
- Active community development
- Not hard to service
- Noob friendly
I too had this doubt in August .
The F3 overall has the best spec sheet. It costs a little more but lasts longer. (I'm biased! Satisfied owner of F3)

Poco F3 is far better than Redmi Note 10 Pro in all aspects as I compared the specs and Poco F3 has every new spec. The only thing is Note 10 Pro has a large battery than Poco F3 but the snapdragon 870 will enhance the battery life in Poco F3 by giving good performance.

Yes, I notice from my research that the RN10 Pro enjoys the availability of more roms. However, if we consider only the most famous roms, like LineageOS and ArrowOS, they are equally loved and supported.
From your thoroughly helpful response, the Poco F3 three is clearly superior. And since the difference is that significant (fast storage, longevity, sound qality...etc as you said) I think I'm more confident in my preference of the F3.
Again, your response was extremely helpful to me because it highlighted those subtle areas, which are usually mentioned with some assumption that everyone will understand their meaning.
Thanks a lot, sir!

I think you have the right to be biased now that I understood their differences better!
I own both (Aliothin and sweetin)
Pros of Aliothin (Mi 11x or Poco f3 in EU)
1. Faster performance.
2. Premium looking back compared to Note 10 pro
3. 5G capable
Pros of Sweetin (Note 10 pro India)
1. Better camera (64MP Samsung Sensor is better than 48MP one in F3 especially in low light, 108MP global version is also really good)
2. Headphone Jack
3. Super Macro lens vs Just Macro in F3.
4. Better Battery life (5000 vs 4520 if I am not wrong)
Get F3 if you are willing to keep your phone for 4 or so years and Note 10 pro if you change every 2 years. sd732G is a aging chip, sd870 is blistering fast.
F3 has 5G which means you can enjoy faster network when it available.
That is the main reason I put another $100 for my phone (I don't spend much for phone generally).
This is the best value phone I found with both 5G and Snapdragon. Though I must admitted that 870G is overkill for my need, I never play games on mobile. I could trade it for better battery. But I was very tempted with a premium cpu.
