  • Good cheap phone with very good battery life but Android 10 update has slowed down the phone a lot.

    Do not update to Android 10 if you haven't yet. Wait few months so that HMD can make it more stable. Other than that,a good phone as a second device.

    Pros
    • Pure Android
    • Big Screen
    • Good Battery Life
    • Stereo Speakers
    Cons
    • Feels bulky
    • Android 10 slowed down device
    • Low RAM and no 2GB option
    • Low performance of SD 425

    I broke 2 and got a 3rd

    The best thing it has according to me is the battery (which was 4100 in version 2, and 4000 in 4.2) and the camera configuration that has a lot of chevrons, like a fighter plane look. Version 2 is aluminum, heavy, heats up quickly. It tends to hang. After 7 months of continuous blows and the occasional immersion in water, he died. Then I only found 2.1. It does not have aluminum, it is wider and does not stick but lages, does not heat up, but lasted 6 months, of blows and dips. I finally bought the third 2.1 and I only take it out of the box for times when I need to travel and its 4000 mAh is useful. In both versions the screen is great and sharp and can be set to sleep mode, the audio is good Good for utility use, not gaming, and it is also stylish in design. I suppose this is a phone for quiet gentlemen, and not for boy scouts or mechanics like me.

    Pros
    • Sharp display
    • Sensitive touch
    • 4000mAh battery
    • Elegant
    • Again the battery
    Cons
    • Version 2 hangs often
    • Version 2.1 may run slow
    • Little storage
    • Not suitable for playing simulators

    Is very slow

    What I don't like about the phone is that it freezes and I have to restart it 20 times an hour It heats up fast And when I play for 10 minutes the sound turns off and if you are worried about this bad review give me the latest Nokia

    Pros
    • Sobido is good
    Cons
    • Every time it freezes it's slow

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
