Hello everybody, and happy new year! (kinda late )
My question is, that which phone is better. What do you think about these phones and do you have some experience with these phones??
There are a lot phones at the price around 230$, but these are one of the best ones for that price. (I think)
I prefer Galaxy S3 Neo, because of its functions and because is not that big as ZenFone 5, and because of its Android. ZenUI is not that bad on ASUS, but there is almost everything new and you need accustom to it. What I "hate" on the ASUS is design of the phone, but it doesn't matter. On hardware I think ASUS is better, but in camera not, it doesn't have that nice quality pictures and on S3 Neo look better. I will be happy If you post some about these phones what do you think is better and if you have some experience with it, if it is lagging or something like that. Just If you're happy with that phone (if you own it). I don't understand a lot a technology and I'm not expert , sorry for my english and hope you will post something. Thank to everybody.
Zenfone has 2 cores at 1.6Ghz and the S3 neo has 4 cores at 1.2/1.4Ghz. I dont know about cpu cores in mobile devices so i cant tell if those +2 cores are something wow.
ZenFone 5

Yes, it is true, but everybody says that its "behaving" as quad core 1,6 GHz... (btw. S3 Neo in my country has 1,4 GHZ CPU)

Well antutu says its 22k and the s3 neo is about 20k points. So probably take the zenfone 5 because of the bigger screen but i dont know if it matches the s3 neo in multitasking and general speed. Is it like "Zenfone 5 has an intel cpu with 2 that matches an amd cpu with 4 cores"?
I would always prefer to take qcom device because there is huge support from codeaurora and google ....
Also 1.4 x 4 ghz > 1.6 x 2 ghz , AMOLED > IPS ...
Well, I'm mostly listening to music, sometimes play games (games like Clash of Clans and more...) and browse YT or internet, so I don't think that I need some great multitasking. BTW. I have heard. that ZenFone 5's battery at Android KitKat is really draining... ASUS's Intel CPU is not acting like dual-core, there are some enhanced functions, so it's like quad-core. Also, ZenFone gets Lollipop on April, but i don't think that I need it too much . If you look at GSMArena, people are really happy with S3 Neo, but ZenFone, everybody talking about bad battery, and camera... - So, may I choose S3 Neo?
You can post some other phones for that price, for example some other brands, S3 Neo and ZenFone 5 are the most liked for that price in my country.
I'm not using my phone for games, I need some great phone, which has good battery life, big RAM (because I have a lot of apps on the background) and camera too.... it will be good, if it has some new Android (Lollipop).
In current market, there is a much competitive and popular smartphone from Lenovo, although it's not the first 64bit 4G LTE smartphone, and it also the upgraded version of Lenovo Lemo, we must figure out the model, right, it's Lenovo Lemo K3 Note. After Meizu announced its note version, Meizu M1 Note, 'Note' has become the trendy word, like Xiaomi Note, so does Lenovo K3 Note. We are delighted to get the goods to make a specific hands on review for you when you have questions to purchase this one.
Design
Lenovo K3 Note has boosted 5.5inch FHD IPS screen instead of the Lenovo k3 with 5.0inch HD IPS screen, in view of the screen size and screen resolution, large screen size can be regarded as a small tablet pc, like a popular phablet, especially for those large-palm foreigner. What's more, i am so picky with the screen resolution, if i bought a smartphone with lower screen resolution, which means the less superior video quality. Fortunately, Lenovo K3 note has the highest screen resolution with 1920 * 1080pixels, which enables me to enjoy more full high definition videos, games, and so on. This factor is very critical for me.
Hardware
Lenovo K3 Note has also made changed about its CPU, this time it uses the latest and most popular MTK6752 64bit Octa core 1.7GHz CPU rather than Qualcomm MSMS8916 64bit Quad Core 1.2GHz CPU of Lenovo Lemo K3, built in RAM 2GB ROM 16GB, larger than RAM 1GB of Lenovo K3. As you know, a chipset is as important as human's heart, 64bit Octa core processor has come into a mature and stable stage for most smartphones. I can play 3D games freely and rapidly by Lenovo K3 Note, meanwhile, RAM 2GB running memory helps me store and run the enough apps to avoid the lack storage to be stuck.
Dual Camera
When i pick a smartphone, i also attch importance to the dual camera, it has 13MP back camera and 5MP front camera, both cameras enable me to take a picture in low light, let alone in strong light. I always take this smartphone to shoot some beautiful moments in my life and then upload in my zone. I believe as time passed by, it can be eternal.
Software
For most Lenovo smartphone, it just can support Chinese and English, and it doesn't have Google play store. Right now we can share the good news that this one not only has google play store, but also set up in your mother tongue. Meanwhile, I can use GPS to locate where i want to go to avoid losing the way. Other practical softwares such as facebook, twitter, bluetooth are provided for you free. In addition, 3000mAh Battery lets me call or play for one day without charging more. I can't express more about this smartphone.
Price and Coupon
Lenovo K3 Note begins to sell now below $170 today to get a nice budget phone. Now there are Yellow and White in stock. Which one will you choose? More latest review about Chinese smartphone will come soon, stay tuned.

I really want to get this device! But a few questions for those that have it...
(a) what is the quality of the camera? For the price, I know I can't expect too much, but I am hoping it is significantly better than my current phone (Moto G 2013)
(b) from youtube videos it looks like the screen has quite a significant blue tint to the screen colors. Have you found this to be the case, and have you tried using any apps to correct it?
(c) has anybody successfully used a 64GB micro SD card with it?
(d) it seems that it does not come with Google Play. Has anybody successfully replicated the steps posted by dreambo to root and install gapps?

i found this video of comparison of redmi note 2 and PRIME version. There is about 2000 difference in Antutu.
youtu.be/s3yzJUi4Gls
it is roughly 47000 vs 50000, but you won't notice the difference at all.
It's 200MHz faster, in other words 10% more.

I'm finding the 32GB of storage very useful
You can go down to 1430MHz and GPU to 400MHz = any game work fine. Like Ouzo sad, it's about the 32GB. With 128GB sd you got more than enough

@Klanac89
with which app have you make the 1430MHz/400Mhz settings ?
Bought the 2.2ghz/32gb variant
Hi guys, I bought the "prime" variant off of Chinese e-commerce site, JD.com, which is supposed to be one of the most reliable e-commerce platforms here (unlike taobao). The phone's About page and other places list the hardware that I expect to be there, but nowhere is the word "Prime" included in the model name. And also suspicious, the Model Number is listed simply as Redmi Note 2. These two things together begin to make me doubt this is the real deal, and not some equally priced knock off. All the Mi apps work, including xiaomi account creation and cloud storage and so on. Does anyone have a Redmi Note 2 they know is the prime variant and legitimate, who can confirm this is normal for the info in the About Phone page?
Thanks!
I've got a prime, mine doesn't say anything about it.
Sent from my Redmi Note 2 using XDA Premium HD app
redmi note 2 prime
Prime version is not written under the phone name. Just check storage and processor (CPU) under the settings- about phone- and if you see 32 gb-2,2Ghz, you have prime version. If you don't bolive that just install antutu and check your hardware.
Using both the Redmi Note 2 and the Prime. What I would say is that 10% is different in processing power, feels the same. The good part is that you more storage for Prime topping up another 12 bucks or so, which is a bargain. Antutu result was almost the same for me or worst depending on the ROM installed.
Attached is my Antutu results. The Prime results on Geekbench 3 looks more impressive than Honor 7 results but not the on the Antutu.

thx for answer. for what version is this benchmark?
I bought Prime because it has 32GB ROM. That's a big help even with SD slot. But I would say from day to day usage perspective they are not much different in performance.
Any I am using Redmi Note 2 Prime, but will be doing the benchmark Redmi Note 3 next week. All the benchmark used is current and downloaded thru the playstore.
im still bugged with this question. so how big is fps difference in popular games between 6795 and 6795t. becouse 23fps is big difference to 30fps if it scale with 550 to 700.

We are very Very Sorry..
Unfortunately, I'm fairly certain that we will never get the sources required for a proper custom ROM on this device, mainly because it is Mediatek.
Waiting for Redmi Note 4 Pro (Snapdragon)...
They will launch Snapdragon version in India due to patent issues with Erricson. So we might get our hands on the source code just like Note 3.

So it's MediaTek? I have 3 MT devices, none of them have enough space in the user partition. I thought that was the reason why there were slow and unresponsive.
But these look a lot better than what I already have. Can they be rooted, do the standard recoveries show upside-down. CWM is easier to manage that way, but TWRP is difficult.

I'm having confusion between Realme 2 pro and Asus Zenfone, because Asus has got a massive battery (5000 mAh) and (Snapdragon 636), whereas Realme 2 pro has (Snapdragon 660), but a very low battery (3500 mAh) considering the processor. And I specifically want to buy a phone for gaming (PUBG, Asphalt 9 etc).
I will stick to ZMP M1
Serious Network bug in Max Pro M1.
Even with better reception.
Get poco, not much price difference and superior in every possible way.
If you are not fan of notch you can go with asus zenfone maxpro m1 but wait max pro m2 just got announced

When can you share details
I would suggest Zenfone, because:
1. Notch displays are not good for gaming & watching videos (for obvious reason - display cutout, so some contents won't be visible).
2. M1's 5000 mAh battery performs very well. You can play for much longer time.
3. SD636 is just Underclocked SD660. And there's Overclocked kernel available for M1 to match the performance. So there won't be, if not then slight performance difference.
Neither Asphalt 9, nor PUBG lags on M1. I personally play Asphalt 9 with High graphics, and PUBG with HD graphics + Extreme FPS. There's no lag or heating issue.
For gaming i recommend you real me 2 pro
For long term gaming asus m1
Build is plastic on real me while metal in asus
Stock android is in asus while buggy color os is in real me which is not properly optimised.
Rest is you choice. I would go for m1 pro its available for very cheap rate in sell
You want that color os for life???
The hardware of realme2pro is good...
SD660..
Faceunlock via IR
But you will never be able to flash any custom rom or even root any oppo device because they do not make the kernel sources publicly avaliable...i.e---No developer community/Roms/custom kernels/Root
And..... Color os is very heavy and performace will be compromised
Go for asus

If you are primarily into gaming, then Max Pro 6GB any-day. The ColorOS is bloated and not properly optimized.

(pic attached)
I have very simple answer for you:
If you consider yourself well versed with Android don't buy any device which has ColorOS or else you will regret.
Reasons:
It will give a constant flashing banner on your statusbar as soon as you enable Developers option, accessibility for any app, Mobile Hotspot, etc. and force you to shut them down.
You won't see any notification icons if the device has a notch (even realme 2 pro although it has very small notch).
Usb debugging will auto disable within 10 minutes of non-usage (it will anyway get disabled as the OS will keep on flashing banner until you disable Developers option).
No bootloader unlocking for any Realme device as of now.
These are few of the worst issues in ColorOS 5.2 right now.
Brother you should get realme 2 pro
If you can live with ColorOS and don't mind a smaller battery, go for Realme 2 Pro.
I used Asus Zenfone Max pro me 6gb after using OnePlus 5 8gb. Honestly saying Asus got good network reception than OnePlus 5 >> + asus has massive battery, pubg and asphalt 9 runs extremely well on balanced graphics and high fps. I don't know why people says that Asus Zenfone Max pro has bad network reception. I stay in a very off network place, but I still get good network reception.

It's happening for some people unfortunately.
For wifi I can wholeheartedly confirm.
Surprised that you have better reception on ZMPM1 than OP5. Good for you.

For people buying 15k phones, 7k would be regarded as much of a price difference.
Agree regarding the value part though.
Also superior in every possible way!?

Im also a victim of network issue.
Very poor.
I still remember some Youtuber mentioned that this **** has great cellular call quality.(when i was planning to buy).
[Reception is good but this ****s modem is crazy,call and internet drops like hell].
I choose this piece of crap over RN5 Pro,and that was such a mistake if feel pitty in myselves.
I want to trash it by using a sledgehammer, nothing less
