Does anyone else experience delay or lag scrolling apps like Facebook and Instagram?
It seems some problems loading pictures and make it delay the scroll...

I sure do, but I don't think it's the hardware. Might just be 5.02, hopefully the i3 will get a real update soon but I doubt it. I think they'll likely update to M as we're so close to it's release or this will be my last Alcatel phone, EVER.
In general I'm happy with the phone, according the price he cost.
But my previous was a Zenfone 2 and there are a few things I'm missing.

For what I paid I'm not complaining either, hell of a phone for the price. I had a zf2 as well but I prefer the i3.
Probably you didn't had same version as I did. The 4gig ram.
One thing I thought I would complain was the battery. But actually the I3 have a nice one too.

No, I had the 4gb version but the screen isn't as good as the one on the idol, the front facing speakers are better, the I3 is lighter, imho the I3 is the better looker between the 2 phones, the Android skin on the idol is closer to vanilla android (which I prefer) and the the battery life on the I3 is better.
Without a doubt things were more fluid on the zf2 and benchmarks were better but after using both phones in the real world I rather use the I3. Yes the I3 is slower than the zf2 but not by much in real world situations.
I like I3.
On Zenfone 2 I miss camera quality.

Don't want to start a new thread or tack on to one that pretty much has died.
Where the heck did everyone go anyways. Reviewing threads back when the discussions had been going pretty good.
I picked one up with some reservations but with a return policy in tow and for the price I figured since I'm a junkie then why not.
In brief the display is very good, same with the sound quality and there is virtually no lag and I am using stock launcher. I turned the animations off and limited background processes to two.
Folks can hunt around but unless they got one that is not functioning properly they are not going to get an unlocked smartphone better than this and performs the way mine has for this price.
Great job, Alcatel!

I agree fully, if they could release a follow up with a 801/805 (or the 810 if it gets a price drop) and OIS on the camera (or new sensor) for a small bump in price, it would be damn near the perfect phone.

Yep - I just switched to the Moto E 2015 LTE as a backup phone (bricked the Idol 3 by having root during the Stagefright update, but thats another story) and the Moto E has no lagging or stutters where it was noticeable on the Idol 3. Apps such as Instagram and Facebook have no lag whatsoever - and this is on a phone with a lower-end Snapdragon 410 chip! Granted the phone has lower screen res and and Lollipop 5.1, but it definitely tells me its either severe software optimization issues with the Idol 3 or the SD615 is a dog like it has been suspected.
I'm really curious to hear how the performance is on the Moto X Play that was just released (also with SD615, but with Motorola software optimization and 5.1.1). Should be a more direct comparison to the Idol 3 spec-wise.
I personally don't use Facebook, Instagram, etc. So I can't comment on those, but the stock browser has a terrible scroll delay. So bad to the point where it just freezes completely. I prefer chrome though which runs pretty smooth for me so it's not too much of a big deal.
Chrome does seem to drain more battery than anything else though. I still get more than a 24hr cycle of battery with my use though if I stretch it. And at least 4 hours of screen on time usually though so again, not complaining at all about this device. Just minor annoyances that seem like a software update/optimization should take care of. Fingers crossed that we get good official and unofficial support.

Hello
I have a question which i would like your oppinion
I have a note 3 using a galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition. My note 3 is used for about 30min hotspot, 2h30 screen on, 1h call duration , many hangouts messages and a 14h Bluetooth connection to galaxy gear.
This is my usage every day. I've ended with about 50%of battery.
However, i feel i didnt need such a big device because I have a big tablet too. And after 4 weeks I didnt get tottaly used to the big size of note 3.
Do you think if i trade for a s4 o would do regret? Do you think the battery life of the s4 it would be enough for no usage, using a my connection to the gear?
Many many thanks for your oppinion

Having owned an Ipad Mini Retina, Ipad Mini, Ipad 4, Android Nexus 7, Nexus 7 2013, Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and a tab.
So I've used the top end Apple and Android tablets, I've owned practically every smartphone from Iphone 5s, to Note 3's.
But this device trounces all of them to be perfectly honest, the speed is pure, crisp and almost instant with most apps, opening and closing, gaming quality is second to none, not a single lag anywhere, even my Note 3 lags on some of the games this baby simply takes in its stride.
I read the reviews and there are very few compared to other more well know manufacturers and thought id give it a go, went onto PC world and they have an offer on now £99 for the Note 7 itself and 20 % of accessories, so i got 20% of the official slot in flip case. amazing deal.
One game that stands out to me at this early stage or play, is Colin Mcrae which lags on everything, even my Ipad retina and 5s iphone, but not on this, loading times are seriously less on everything.
Why on earth is this tablet not advertised on every billboard and newspaper.
Just thought Id mention this and hope this section of XDA gets loads more action as it should, this is the hidden super device.
ANYONE thinking 1GB ram....forget it, this thing flies, even more so than a 3GB RAM Note 3
Sell your grandmother, deodorants, pants and save up and buy one of these.:good:

The tablet is great it has also more perfomance waiting to be unlock just needs a more highly optimised Android OS with all the glitches in the 4.4.2 to be fixed but they seem to be quick on the OTA's i give Nvidia credit for that!
The only cons is the display. A better display make the tegra note the best tablet.
Inviato dal mio TegraNote-P1640 utilizzando Tapatalk
For it's stated purpose, a gaming tablet, it's quite awesome :good:
I find that for daily usage, whilst 7" is quite usable, I personally need the extra realestate and an extra 3 inches would have it replacing my laptop. The actual users of the tablet though, use it for everything - browsing gumtree, ebay, streaming pandora, watching movies - as for gaming, they do plenty of it and love the native support of the ps3 controller.
As for the color reproduction of the IPS screen, it's glorious - games look wonderfully vibrant, you can enjoy the deep blacks in movies, it's a very good entertainment device for sure.
All this being said, I have now purchased two of these for my wife and her sister and they could not be happier with them

To be fair almost all devices would retina at some point away from your eyes.... The rival for this tab's display is the 2013 nexus 7 which has over 300ppi compared to the tegra note's 215ppi ... I own both but having them both held exactly 15cm away from face there is no difference in quality. Unless you are doing very fine reading on the internet.... so tegra =720p screen and nexus 7=1080p screen. ... with almost no difference in quality from eachother.:cyclops:
I'm planning to buy one but read that recent update broke the feature to transfer apps to sdcard,is this true?
nvidia still have not announced tegra note2 Or shield 2 at the current ces but still I'll wait.
Transfering apps to sdcard shouldnt be a major deal breaker if that does exist, I can release a workaround for that which will use your internal storage as external and vice versa! ;D

I have had a nexus 7 grouper note 8 note 10.1 but my nvidia tegra note arrives today
I've had the Tegra Note for 4 months now and I'm pretty satisfied with it. The performance, the dual speakers, the stylus, the price for which I got it, even the resolution doesn't bother me much. Sure it would be nice to have a sharper screen but it's not so bad. The only thing that I wish would've been better (well, other than the noticeable weight), is having a slightly larger screen, probably 8 inches. 7 inch is okay and all but whenever I do anything on the tab like watching movies, I just wish there is that little bit more real estate. 7 inch is big but not big enough for me. The Shield tablet is perfect for me in that regard but it costs way more over here and it also weighs a bit more than even the TN7! So I'm kind of confused on what to do with my tab. Should I make do with the screen or sell it and try getting a bigger tab with front-facing speakers with possibly lower performance (I'm not a huge gamer btw. I mostly play only casual games but the few large games I have played have performed easily with not even a stutter. Would there be that big a performance drop for tabs with "lesser" processors)?
I have definitely had a different experience than everyone else, I guess. It's not terrible for the price I paid, but with the 4.4.4 update, it's laggy as hell, with lots of touch screen issues. I know there are fixes and I know I could roll it back to one of the more stable updates, but frankly, I haven't felt like putting in the effort. Part of the reason I bought it was the promise of solid performance and timely updates. Add in the fact that I had to root it and flash the 4.3 update manually to even get OTAs working, again, and what I am left with is feeling like I should have saved my money and bought a Shield tablet or bought the 2013 Nexus 7, instead. As of now, I just use it in my Perk farm until Nvidia finally releases a Lollipop OTA that I really hope will address the multitude of performance issues I have run into.
Shame, really, as I love the hardware, but the software in the latest OS is just garbage.
Is it true?
I read somewhere that some people have had App incompatibility issues with the TN 7, is this something that was with the 4.2 and was improved with 4.4.2 or is it because of the Tegra 4? Just curious.
For people saying the wished it had 8" inch, I would say there is a Nvidia Shield 8 inch with higher res. I like 7" inch just because it's a thing in between the 4-5" mobiles and the 10-11.6+ notebooks, besides the 1280x800 would look worse on 8".
Just my $0.01 (it used to be $0.02 but due to the recession, we've had to make cutbacks)
So I'm thinking about getting Mi A1. A lot of people had problems with Oreo update a few months ago.
How is it now? Where there any new updates that fixed the problems?

I used to play around with my old Samsung Galaxy S II. But I don't have time or feel the need anymore. Nokia would be great, but right now I just need a great battery and a fast phone. And don't want to spend too much. I really don't like Nokia 6 (2018) design, the fingerprint sensor is too low. And Nokia 7 Plus will cost around 400 eur. Way too much. So I guess I'll go for Mi A1 or Redmi Note 5 Pro.

Mi A1 has more or less same battery with Nokia 6 (2018). Go for Redmi Note 5 Pro in your case. It has better processor and battery and would get more love from Xiaomi developers.

I'm fine with Mi A1, with gcam it has even a very nice camera, but it depends, if you can find it for about 150€-170$ then yes, it's a good choice.
I paid for it about 220€-240$ six months ago.

Redmi Note 5 Pro has really good hardware but crap software. You'll have to wait about 2-3 months (Might be even more, might be less) for stable custom ROMs

Tried this before actually but the issue still remain, infact the wifi kept disconnect with all wifi not just my router even the public wifi i do think it has something to do with the software since the first month using this phone everything work perfectly but i can't really remember since when this issue started but now i think it has been like 3 months. Thank you for the suggestion
I really REALLY like this phone. To me, it's like a Nexus Junior.
I have a Note 8 and I find myself coming back to the Mi A1 regularly.
For everyday use (SMS/EMAIL/INTERNET/SOCIAL MEDIA), it works flawlessly.
Adding GCAM only makes it shine.
What do you guys think, if I got Moto Z Play? Would it be better than Mi A1?

2 days are over...where was the launch?
In the toilet it seems. Never had this need for new phone before. Not a biggie, right? Now I'm being desperate. The Power 5 was really too much overkill.
I will gladly upgrade if the camera comes out good.
Rumors say 48Mpx Samsung for base version, 48Mpx Sony for Pro version. It is also a point in my decision. The issue is timing. We might be waiting MONTHS for this. Who knows... I started to look around.
That's it... Too bad, Xiaomi! Ordered Vivo V15 Pro already.
Never touch Mobile without 5G. Simple.
Haha, in our country, data is bloody expensive. Normal volumes are like 1-3GB /month, more is too premium. That is like my daily consumption, or rather more. Pathetic. Therefore most of the time, I'm on wi-fi, or PC... Therefore 5G is close to useless here. Who wants to pay hundreds $ just for little youtube....
Read somewhere Mi Max 4 will be officially released in India on 17 July 2019. Screen is 7.2 inches with resolution of 1080 X 2340 with 351 PPI, tear-drop notch and no bezels.
Anyone else able to confirm this?

Before you get out of hand nerding out wait until we see a Tenaa certification or NCC that will more closely give an indication of what to expect..
Just look how the Mi max 3 pro got out of hand to end up just being vaporware

yes it was allegedly certified by ncc aimed for the European market but somehow the document was pulled or fake.. by who nobody knows, or even cared to investigate and the ceo later apologized and deterred the rumors that a mi max 3 pro was in the making.
It lead to being listed both at Qualcomm website and xiaomi cn page and a cn retailer with pre-order info and later pulled from Qualcomm and xiaomi website without an explanation.
If it was even made then pulled from production plans or if it was pure vaporware nobody knows as xiaomi did not disclose any further information other than confirming that there was no mi max 3 pro

S8 it's a bit too old phone, Mi9t is much better in speed and camera specs. So you can switch for sure.

My s8 is verry quick and i really love OneUi, I also tested Miui and loved it on my redmi note 7.
The bad thing with thé Samsung is update while thé mi 9t Will get Android 10.
I also saw on différents tests that caméra is really bad

Why worry about updates when everything just works great? Not worth for the sacrifice of anything, no matter how big or small. It's like switching bank just because they pay you 50 bucks for doing so, when in fact your previous bank was better when it came to long term usage.
S8 is a great phone, if your battery is not then replace it if you are confident enough. Not saying the Mi 9T is a bad phone but no point if you don't see any benefits apart from software updates.
i am going to do the opposite (mi 9t to S8+) after 1 month of use, the only thing that you will notice is the battery life everything else S8+ is better for sure ( i owned S8+ before) even the premium feel.
If your mainly focus is camera, I don't think it will be a great enough trade. Mi9T camera is very good in my opinion, but S8+ is probably still better. Front camera may be where Mi9T takes advantage. Battery definitely destroy S8+, there's no competition in that regard. Daily performance with normal usage and tasks will be faster and more fluid, but in heavy games S8+ will still perform better. My previous phone was a Moto Z2 Force, which had Snap 835 + 6GB RAM and performance is the same, with Z2F still performing better at heavy games. Everything else I feel Mi9T is better, specially battery.

All smartphones take good pictures in good conditions.
I want to switch because gcam is very slow on my S8 but results are impressives.

Thank you. I get 7h sot on my S8+ so battery is not à problem. Galaxy makes gréât pictures with/without Gcam but this Last is verry slow.

If you are comparing S8 and Redmi Note 7 and Mi9t those are different devices in productivity, Mi9t is far more faster than S8 or Redmi Note 7, if you'd even compare Antutu score right now Mi9t reaches 247k which is far more than S8 or Redmi Note 7

Benchmarks do not interest me, in addition the GPU of exynos 8995 is much more powerful for games.
All I'm interested in is the camera for photos and videos.
Edit: so quoting ur post messes up my post... Dunno why
Maybe downgrade Gcam. I can see the Mi 9T being a great phone for you. You do not seem to be a heavy user which will benefit you even more in the Mi 9T due to that power efficient chip at the sacrifice of... No sacrifice. Because this thing easily plays games at high settings, although I'm the kind of guy to play on low:silly:
Apart from the cameras (S8 better is all I'm saying), it seems like the perfect phone for you, and many other people.
BUT
You are coming from a Galaxy S8+...

Unfortunately you are wrong as for the GPU
Why is Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 better than Samsung Exynos 8895?
2nm smaller semiconductor size
8nm vs 10nm
204MHz faster GPU clock speed
750MHz vs 546MHz
1 newer version of DirectX
12 vs 11
Has out-of-order execution
Supports ECC memory
The CPU speed is basically the same but the rest of the specs is much more advanced on Snapdragon 730
But all of you forgot the fact that S8+ is almost 3 years old. S8+ is more prone to having things stop working
Finally, I did it !

Time flies I guess... ( I actually forgot lol) the more prone to stop working thing isn't really something to worry about, like... I don't know how to explain this one.
Simply put, worst case scenario something stops and it makes you upgrade. Like nothing bad about it, you have already bought the phone and used it for quite a while, enough to make you want to upgrade.
Or are you implying that when that does happen its value is significantly reduced when selling it. That makes sense.

Nooo, why!! I'm joking. Man I wish I owned a S8 right now I don't know why:laugh:
Wait are you planning on selling it? Hadn't thought about that because then I would definitely say now is the time to upgrade because it is pretty much a FREE upgrade due to the price the S8 currently sells at (just checked; about £50-£80 less compared to last time I... Checked. Time really does fly lol) and you have the plus model so I'm glad you did it. Upgrading from a great phone to another.
Patience pays off
