STILL banging the same ol' drum! Give it a rest!

Band 20 + EU support/warranty for £24 more from vmall.

Kirin 955 is limited to cat 6 lte speeds. Better buy phone with better Qualcomm chip inside.

Your drum beat cannot make Kirin 955 any better.

Out of curiosity...What phone would you suggest for £199 or under? Qualcomm wise I mean? That'll give similar day to day performance yet have superior download speeds?

Picked up one of these a few months ago for £149.95 from Amazon Warehouse. At least I think its this model, specs and screen size look to be the same. Mine is a KIW-L21.

Does everything a phone is meant to do without issue. Best thing about it is the battery life - beats anything I've had for years. Ok, I'm not playing games on it, but use it for messaging, emails, calls browsing etc and three days is normal.

I don't care if its a FlipFlop775 chip inside, it does the job its meant to without needing charged every twelve hours!

I would suggest Le Eco max 2 or Zuk z2 etc with snapdragon 820 and B20 Band. Most phones with snapdragon 820/821 are really good.

That's a 5X.

Ach well, still a decent phone :smiley:

Have you used either of these very obscure phones (I've never heard of either) or are you just going on spec's?

Actually spot on. I picked up the ZUK Z1 a year or so back and adored that thing, still going strong with my mum too :innocent:

Are these on eBay or is there a reseller somewhere?

You'll find both on hukd, Letv x820 has b20, 5.7" 2k screen (qhd), fingerprint sensor and dual sim(though no micro sd). I have the x829(no b20), nice phone,happily recommend.

I have this phone and it' great.

This or a HTC ONE M8 32 gb?

What is the camera like in these alternatives? I've heard the Lenovo is quite poor but don't know about the Le Eco.

A bit of hope for this phone.....

Redmi note 3 pro best budget phone by far

Now has franco kernel as well

any chance you could paste a link to the redmi you advise please, they appear to be several, just want one for most things other than games,

Would the ZUK Z2 happen to have a Micro SD card slot as well?

No. I recommend the redmi note 4 global edition. Available for around $160, great battery and micro SD slot (hybrid dual SIM tray).

No b20 on linked mobile. The Redmi Note 3 is a great phone though becoming hard to get (the Special edition has b20).

I know typing on an SE

RN3 was/is a beast love this phone

B20 is no biggie if you use EE which you should but that's another story.....

Just trying to clear up the SE/global /international issue for others. Yes, RN3 is a great phone, two at home (one SE) with no issues on 3 mobile - both receive 4G as expected.

I know the Plus comes with an IR Blaster but do this model? Cheers

Is OppoMart reliable, I'd been on it since a long time ago but never ordered anything and never known whether it's reliable or not though it looks more legit than GearBest and other Chinese websites...

No EE use B20 as well. When your signal goes crap don't blame EE. I am with EE and checked with Lte Discovery app that I use B20 most of the time.

I don't know tbh but its getting harder to find stock of the RN3 these days

If it has PayPal go for it

Never had any problems with 'normal' RN3

Got 53 meg on speed test in Liverpool city center last week

When you go in a crowded area where many people are using the phone , like train station or stadium, it makes real difference. In London most places are crowded so I want the best reception possible. If you are willing to compromise on reception and use your phone only as a tablet, you may not have any problem.

i posted that well over a week ago.

Will this work okay on Vodafone? If not I'm tempted by the Redmi Note 3 Pro posted above. Thanks!
