  • Good phone good price

    For those who must havet SD card slot this phone is the only option today.

    All about this phone is good. all the specs for this price is good. thats just what i need to say. for me its a high end phone for the price of just 299$/277€ inclusive all from china, first phone whit extrem long shipimg time. now i ordered from france EU 299$/277€ inclusive all. i live in EU

    (firt order it whas mutch more expensive in EU. thats why i bought from china that time. now its the same price)
    _________
    BUT. Just IF I have to complain about something:

    fingerprint is slow and have problem to recognice finger to mutch.

    the speaker is on the bottom and if you laying whit the phone and have it on your stomech looking on YT,play game,listen to musik when reading etc it will block the sound.

    underscreen camera is more visible irl then in picture and YT videos. but its mutch mutch better than a punch hole.
    _________

    the usb port is not working anymore but its my fault i think.
    i have now ordered this phone again.

    the usb card part is impossible to buy so i cant repair it.
    _________

    this phone is what i would chose even if there was other phone to chose whit sd card, its in my budget and i get a high end phone to. a big bonus is the underscreen selfie camera.

    but it sad that the SD card fiture is almost gone on the todays phones and if someone want a better camera or bigger battery etc its not an option

    ok one thing i would pay more to get is the combo SD card/ir blaster/3.5 jack/sterio speaker/bigger battery. then is the ultimate phone for me. but this is impossible to find nowdays. 3.5 almost gone, ir blaster is unique to, sd card is hard to find. just one of those thing on a phone is hard to get.

    imagine this combo on a new samsung s23. it chould cost 10.000€ haha

    Good hardware, bad software

    The device has brutal specs. I love the under-display camera, even though it makes selfies worse. What I don't like is its software. While it's very clean, it's riddled with bugs and has only been updated once or twice in the three years I've had it.

    Pros
    • Under-screen camera for multimedia
    • Processor and RAM
    • Screen
    Cons
    • Under-screen camera for selfies
    • The battery can be improved
    • The software has several bugs
    • There are no software updates

    It is a very good phone in performance, it is what I was looking for, the camera is good

    I loved its snapdragon870, I did an antutu test and it reached more than indicated, it was 794,000 points, the camera is not that bad, I'm talking about the selfie, Aceves is weak a lot and others are average in light conditions, the software is poor, it was not updated to Android 12, That's supposed to be what these phones have

    Pros
    • Power
    • rear cameras
    • 120Hz Oled Screen
    • DTSx Sound
    • Screen print
    Cons
    • It is missing functions that are perfectly executable on the phone

    Good device except for the battery

    Battery very bad had to recharge 3 times a day, gratifying that it goes very quickly with a 65 watt selfie camera, the worst I've ever had

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.
