better CPU, RAM, screen, if the battery capacity is real, it should hold for a full day.

Funny enough I've been waiting for this to be released as I order it for $125 last week. Had 2 Doogee phones that are still being used to this day so I have no problem with them. 7 days to a regarge and ultra fast charging ? what more do you want? are people really buying phones to play games ? the camera and other features other then making calls is a bonus to me so don't care how fast it is.

If everything else is just a bonus why not just get a cheap £10 phone for calls? Seems it would represent more value for money in your situation...

Do not buy this- its total crap quality, and lol check the video where it shows that they play 2h movie in fast forward and the battery is up at 72% after 2hours of movieplayback- It's clearly not even a 6250mah battery.

What is it with all the huge 5.5" or bigger phones! I'm looking for China phone upto 5" maybe 4.7" with a huge battery, lower specs are not a huge deal, to replace my rubbish Elephone P4000 I've had not much more than 5 minutes but isn't great....

I wish the mainstream manufacturers would take note, I'm getting sick of these companies making these super powerful phones then sticking a battery in that can barely last 12 hours(I'm looking at you S6) with moderate use. Whats the point in having a top of the line "SMARTPHONE" that you can barely use in fear it might die on you, I thought that was the point in smartphones, to use them to make your life easier.
I bet even when graphene batteries finally make it to consumer products, instead of using it to increase operating time they will just use it to make the phones even smaller. Give us a slightly bigger phone we can use for a couple of days without having to charge every evening or having to give it a quick charge just to get by.

well that's their plan to keep one step behind the latest tech so you can always wait for the newest model and hope for an improvement! Lots of china phones has got large batteries now- but they are useless, either they are fake or the phone itself is crap so it needs that huge battery just to operate the same as regular good-brand phone with much smaller battery, and why would anyone even buy samshit phones....

just by an xperia z series. I've got a z2 & it will last two days easily between charges, sometimes three. My wife has a z5 compact which does the same.

I've owned several smartphones from the manufacturers on sites such as gearbest and banggood etc and generally found them to be of decent quality for the price, the main exception is Elephone who lie about their products, and produce what I believe to be half a*sed attempts at finished products, it doesn't put me off buying a phone from another manufacturer.
Thanks for your Asus link, looks like I am not going to get this instead of the refurb Samsung note 3 I was looking at.

I have this phone so here goes. The phone is a bit heavier due to the battery, but it lasts 2 days heavy use.
I use it for games so I think this is where it might fail due to the low power processor. But I don't have any speed issues with the phone in any way using day to day apps videos etc.
it seems to be well made to be honest, I've had some issues trying to get a case for it.
it comes with a version of nfc called hotnot but as yet can't get it to work with nfc stuff, but no issues with connecting with Bluetooth with various gadgets.
In all this a brilliant phone for the price esp for heavy users sub £100. I had a Sony z3 before this and I chose this to use this day to day, I miss the lightness of the z3 but that's it.

Amazing battery, duals as a paperweight?

Other phones (after 2.3 hours playback)
Galaxy s6 - 86%
IPhone 6 - 91%
IPhone 6 plus - 92%
So this 6000mhz battery sounds pretty crap if it can't run much lower specs for a solid time.

I'm currently using a Lenovo myself

I'm very pleased with my Lenovo, but it needed a custom ROM. The stock one had some dodgy bloatware.
