  • Good camera, small battery

    Overall:
    The phone works almost perfectly after 2 years, many drops and one bath in te pool (it is not water resistant)
    Battery:
    After 2 years of every day intensive use, (using spotify and radio 3-4 h/day, minigames 1h/day and social media) the battery does not last the whole day anymore. I need to charge it at least 50% during the day.
    One of the updates 1 year ago extended the battery day life remarkably
    Fingerprint:
    The finger print sensor is super fast(much much better than Z3 compact and iphone 6)
    Camera:
    Pictures at 23MP works very well the first day. After one year it is not so fast to take a 23MP picture (half second). Good quality in 23MP but the best ratio quality/size is 8MP. You’ll take very good quality pictures and very fast with a reasonable size.

    Pros
    • Fingerprint sensor
    • 8MP pics
    • Overall phone
    Cons

    beautiful hot brick

    Pros

    • perfect size
    Cons
    • you have to hold the phone close to your mouth

    Ideal for those who likes compact terminals.

    It is a terminal, from my ponto of view, very nice, comfortable, somewhat thick, but the thickness helps the hand feeling is very good. Small, less than 13 cm, when the average is 14.5, for me has the ideal size because I like to take the phone in the front pocket of his pants. Autonomy is very good, sobrado day, the screen looks great, both indoors and outdoors, the camera could be better processed, but not bad.

    Pros
    • performance
    • sound quality with headphones / cases
    • size
    • screen (despite being HD only)
    • connectivity
    Cons
    • the volume of the speakers is very short
    • rear very susceptible to scratches
    • Photo processing should improve

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.
