64Gb white

64gb white

64GB white

I went for the 32gb white version. I'm not willing to spend any more than that. I think it will have sufficient power, a bit worried about the storage, but I think I will manage. What I'm looking forward the most is quick charge 3.0 and fingerprint scanner. I am going from HTC M8 and having work mail on your phone requires 8 digit pin code, and that's a hassle. In addition I am able to pick up any mobile free of charge through my job, so will probably be running a dual sim Mi5/iPhone 7.

Same model and my old model was an HTC M8. Finding both the performance and battery far superior. Camera is fantastic for the price.

Most will have the white model.
You gotta be ultra lucky to get a black one. (gold is unavailable)
I got the 32gb white.

How's the 32 GB version? All I care is about performance+battery. Some people said it's laggy, touch response not great
Gaming performance? What high end games have you tried.
Anyone tried playing Modern Combat 5 multiplayer?

Think logic for a second: If a phone with the SD 820 inside lags... then that means it's the software.
So what do we know about the software: It's all the same for every Mi5 (makes 0 difference)
Let's combine this information: If one Mi5 version lags, then all Mi 5 versions are laggy!

Thats absolutely true. Though the 32 GB version is underlocked. About software MIUI is worst in multitasking compared to other normal AOSP etc ROMs for Mi3 I'm using. My post was because of the 2 persons said so http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/help/xiaomi-mi-5-india-t3338966
How's ur experience about performance, touch response? Any games u tried?

my upgrade on 27/7/12

Right i've decided on the S3 already however while i have two months to wait i'm wondering, when will the black version be out and when will the 64gb version be out. since i'm waiting for a bit i started to wonder when we'd see these two or one models released to the UK market, i was disappointed by the S2 only having 16gb as the 64gb would make it a iphone challenger for the audiophiles like myself.
so anyone got any idea?

There's no black version, just pebble blue.
If u bothered to read the forums a little you would know that there's delays for the 16gb and 32gb so asking for a 64gb is just a waste of time.. you have a UK only release thread to get info and news, I suggest u use it...
Also it's a mess to compare it with an iPhone, even with "just" 16 gb internal storage, there is also the sd.

thats a bit harsh telling him to use a thread thats titled uk users just to ask a question ...
does he not have the choice where to post as long as its in the right section , which he is
and has not already been asked before about the 64gb version
1. There is no comparison between this and a ****ephone.
2. There is no and will be no black version, due to Samsung avoiding legal action from apple. Yes, they patented a f*cking colour. You will also notice that the edges on the top and bottom are different too, again, apple patented a shape.
I don't know where I saw the pic now but I've seen a black one and its mentioned in this article
http://www.huzoorbux.com/samsung-galaxy-s3-comes-later-in-black_1022.html so I dunno. But if its blue or white I'm put off. Two colours I'm not a fan of.

Not black, it's just a crappy picture. There was another thread somewhere where somebody thought they saw a black one in the picture, but upon a closer look it was just blue and a crappy picture. Depending on the light, it may seem black.
Except that and mobile review says Samsung are releasing one in future read it you'll see
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I've read it also, that a black version maybe is coming,but not out yet,its not officially confirmed by samsung.
But please don't compare iPhone sd storage with any galaxy version, iPhone is way behind, galaxy phones have an external sd witch support 64 gb, except sgs1 had 16 and 32gb

New Mate 2 Variant at Walmart - $249.00

I was at the local Wallyworld today and they had a new display of Unlocked phones for sale. They didn't have the actual phones on display, but a card that you take to the Electronics desk to get the product. What caught my eye was a phone called "Huawei Ascend Mate 2 Slim". The specs on the card look exactly the same as my Mate 2 that I got on Amazon. The only thing that may have been different was a smaller battery (can't remember if it was noted on the package). The phone is not yet listed on the Walmart.com website. Anyone else see this?? Differences between this phone and the Mate 2? Looks like prices are falling, due to no Kit Kat or Lollipop updates???????

Not quite the same specs. I think that says it only has 8GB of memory.
Next time I am at the store I will get more info. Now that Lollipop is confirmed for our phones, these may sell very well!
New Info
I took a second pic of the info card at Walmart. Other than 8 vs 16 MB memory, and maybe a slightly smaller battery it looks the same at the Mate 2. I didn't see the phone itself. For $249 it looks like a good deal.

Interesting. I dont think it needs to be any slimmer, but if it has a microsd port still, thats a great deal. Thats still amazing battery life.

The battery is the same as the open market HAM2 and it does only have 8GB internal storage. Also, it DOES have the microSD slot. Basically it is the same phone without the 16GB internal storage. Fabulous deal....especially with the announcement of Android L coming first half next year.

I actually just bought this variant, and love it so far. It's almost exactly like my note 2 that died on me awhile back.... Loved the note 2. Unfortunately I can't afford another, nor the note 4 so I figured "It has almost the same specs, I'll give it a whirl" since walmart has the 15 day return policy, so far I'm satisfied and almost love it as much as the Note 2. The bootloader unlock method found on here works as well (Emailed Huawei for the code) Now trying to find an easy way of rooting and looking for TWRP.

Thanks very much! You guys have a bit of a different structure for where your threads go than over at the Note 2 palace as I like to call it. Not going to lie, I miss my baby, but maybe this phone will finally be the motivation that I need to start making my own custom roms for phones, considering development for this doesn't seem a 100% go so far like it is over on the note 2 area. Or at least I haven't noticed yet.

I just noticed in those images it has a different firmware version. the latest update for the Mate 2 is b148 and it looks like the slim is running b146. I doubt there is any notable difference between the 2 but worth pointing out. It baffles me why release a new version when they were not planning to update the phone at all until all of us that purchased the phone caused them to reconsider and give us lollipop
Do you see in the system prpoerties that it list the phone as having 8gb of Phone Storage and not 16gb. Mine has always said 16gb before and after rooting. I have the cc version.

The specs are everywhere right?Not the exact, but still almost a crude idea of what we will be getting in OP2 is out there on the net..The biggest leak that has yet come is that its going to come with snapdragon 810 v2.0(well,thats what they are calling it!). Its said its an undrclcked one. Hope it comes out well. And then the latest news is that OP2 will be the first phone to come out with C Port!! More news maybe leaked soon enuf since its about time that OP2 will be launched(almost in august)..
Lets hope for the best !
Any idea when's the release?
My small wishlist includes no capacitive buttons and a larger screen to fill that space, like a Note 4 or Nexus 6. If 1+2 has at least 5.5" and QHD it's coming home with me. Bonus if it's waterproof.

I wonder if OP2 will have heating issues with the new 2.1 chipset Snapdragon 810 that is designed to ease the heat issue and improve performance.

Exactly my concern.. I read somewhere that Mi5 will be opting for 811 chip.
the guys in OP2 said they tested and fixed all overheating issues. We just gotta see if it's true what they say

Snapdragon 808 would be great
yes.. They have told us its a new 810 chipset wch they say doesnt have heating issues. Hope it comes out like that. Also there as another news that it is been underclockd to reduce the heating issue.. Lets see what comes out tomorrow !
Here is my wish list:
1. as little bezel as possible - LG status please
2. front facing speaker(s) - doesn't have to be stereo just facing our ears please
3. massive battery - 3500-3900 depending on the screen type
4. waterproof/resistant
5. fingerprint sensor - put it on the back to keep the bezeless design
6. wireless charging
7. decent price (still lower than competition)
8. good camera
9. and oh yeah A WAY TO ORDER IT WITHOUT HAVING TO WIN THE FREAKING LOTTERY
Would be a dream, 2k res and proc is already a given... but I don't care as much 1080 p is fine with me for battery reasons
USB type C - what difference does this bring to the smartphone compared to the micro USB? (apart from speed)
I understand for a laptop as it can charge it, but with the micro usb, I can already charge my device.

I think the 4GB of RAM is just... Wow. Seems only yesterday they were trumpeting the Nexus 4 with 2GB of RAM
You can never be too trustful of rumors but supposedly it will be marketed at the same cost as the original with the invite only system in place again
Snapdragon 810 v2.1
4GB RAM
OxygenOS (Lollipop 5.1)
Maybe a fingerprint reader but that's quite doubtful
And USB-Type C charging is confirmed
The first phone with USB-Type C
I am also curious about it. But it is really hard to say.
I personally would prefer 4g ram and full hd

thinking of upgrading from redmi note 3 pro

can anyone offer opinions or advice?

The Le Max 2 has more RAM, a much faster SoC, better camera, better display. For $250 it's a no brainer, and it's gonna be a massive upgrade over the Redmi Note 3 Pro.

Honestly don't think the extra RAM will make any difference. Never come close to not having enough RAM with 4GB. But it's worth the extra spend just to get 64GB storage instead of 32GB.
People keep talking about the lack of 3.5 mm. The phone comes with a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter and it outputs great sound, so what is the issue?

Fully agreed. 4GB will be enough even after 1 year from now, but 32GB will not be if you store videos/music on the phone. 4GB/64GB is the best option in my opinion, regardless of brand/phone.
And if you are willing to wait enough, maybe you can get Pro3 for this amount. The 0.2" for the smaller screen make it much easier to handle (I've had 1s before Le Max2), the build quality seems better as per the reviews and the gold (closer to true gold) color is easier to get, same as the rose gold for the Le Max2. When I bought it (a month after release), the grey option was quite hard to find, and a few months later, the price dropped to ~250$ while I've paid 400$ for it.
I upgraded from Redmi Note 3 Pro to Le Max 2. I agree with most of what others wrote.
Le Max 2 is such a high quality device. Got 4Gb Ram version and am so happy with my decision. Using CN stock rom and it works so good that I don't have any intention to flash custom Roms or enabling root access. It's that good of a device for my needs. In all aspects and functions I use daily.
Hope I helped. Cheers
I would not swap. Simply because of software. I am really angry at myself for jumping the gun on this phone really early without knowing how the software will be like. the official firmware lacks and all custom firmware doesnt support all of the nice hardware the phone has.
If I could decide today, I would not buy it again.
Would like to know what the issues are that people have with the eui software. Almost every reviewer seems to slate it without giving any concrete examples of what they find so wrong with it other than "There's no app drawer" or "It has a useless live TV button" or "The quick settings have been moved to the multitasking tray at the bottom". Well, the first two are just related to the stock launcher. If you don't like that, it takes about three seconds to install a launcher more to your liking. Not an issue worth complaining about. As for the quick settings being in a different place, frankly who gives a damn. It takes a day or two to get used to and then you can get on with using it pretty much exactly the same as ever.
I also don't understand why people complain. The software is mature an everything works stable every day of use 24/7.
I respect those that prefer different ROMs and yet coming from other phones - Nubia z7 mini, Redmi Note 3 Pro - I got tired of flashing, modding and meddling with my phone.
As it is right now - LeMax 2 is the best phone for the money. All those worldwide working band frequencies, amazing display, ultra fast storage, memory and CPU/GPU, stellar sound quality and two satisfactory cameras.
If you want to throw money for a device that will perform mostly the same functions for more money - then go away and do it. This is a Smartphone and its primary function is to perform phonecalls so every other function you get should be considered a bonus.
Buy more expensive brands and pay for their marketing campaigns included in the price. All top brand phones cost around 160 USD to mass produce. Why pay more for a thing that will become "old" in 6 months or less?
I bought it to do phonecalls and the hardware and software performance is excellent. No letdowns whatsoever.
Need a camera - buy a dedicated one, need better software - build your own ROM etc.
OP asked if this would be a good trade from a lower tier device and it definitely would be a step up in every way.
I know as I sold RMN3 Pro to get Le X2.

Everything about the Nokia X6 the budget beast.

Nokia as a core brand in the world of mobiles has launched its budget beast which is the Nokia x6 which comes with a bezzel less display with a little tiny notch...that looks ****ty but still we have to accept that..cause it's the new trend..hurrah!!...****...but still you are getting a high-powered Nokia branded phone which is running under snap dragon 636
12 nm technology.....and you are getting a both 16 MP camera on both the sides of the phone....it's the only phone which will come with a notch in a budget section device list..and you are also going to get usb type c on this phone but the best point of buying this phone is for the Qualcomm quick charge 3.0 and yes it supports that.. above all you are going to get 19:9 screen to body ratio, Corning gorilla glass 3, adreno 509 GPU, android 8.1 out of the box and yeah the legendary NOKIA branding.

Bought the Nokia 6.1 Plus which is the Global AndroidOne version of the X6 and loving it so far!
Only 2 things i wish i had control of, maybe one of you XDA geniuses can help me with.
First is % of the battery in the icon of status bar, it isn't in the battery section not in Systen Tuner UI.
second is to change the order of the back/home/recent apps buttons to recent apps/home/back in the order written here.
TIA.

It is a great device! The above two things are the only things i wish i could fix.
Here are good options where to buy it from:
Best choice IMO as they include free express delivery and will pay customs if there are any, bought my Asus Zenfone 5 Ze620Kl from them.
https://www.eglobalcentral.com/product/nokia 6.1 plus?i=Y
These guys i don't know but they sell it as well, https://www.tecobuy.com/en_US/nokia...ly_jf_f52C_oTHDVy1oiNYYTyd4AkxmUaAmgMEALw_wcB
and then there's eBay, this one uses express shipping, and is where i bought from this time.

Someone knows which is the Dev name of 6.1 Plus, is it Totoro?

Bought the Nokia 6.1 Plus which is the Global AndroidOne version of the X6 and loving it so far!
Only 2 things i wish i had control of, maybe one of you XDA geniuses can help me with.
First is % of the battery in the icon of status bar, it isn't in the battery section not in Systen Tuner UI.
second is to change the order of the back/home/recent apps buttons to recent apps/home/back in the order written here.
TIA.

You can change the order, I've done it on mine. Just need to follow the instructions here: https://www.xda-developers.com/customise-the-navigation-bar-android-oreo/
You can remove the app once you've switched them and it stays the same . Now I just want someone to make a TWRP for this so I can change the video codec and I'll be happy.
Another thing i found is the colours are on the "cold" side, and i prefer warm. So what i did is put on night mode and put the intensity to minimum and voila!
The idea is from a review i saw on youtube.
Which color would look better on this model.. Black or white.. Any suggestions
It's a matter of taste, i like black.

Yeah a TWRP is eagerly needed.
I just received the phone, got it from Gearbest in a Flash Sale for 175 Euros. Added expedited delivery, so paid 180 in total. Delivered within a week! And no customs charges. Brucey bonus.
So far, I like it a LOT. It's only a smidge bigger than my Galaxy S7, but the screen is HUGE compared to it. And I love Android One - no bloat. It has some functionality I'd not seen before, I especially liked the "restore settings" from Google option, that literally put all my shizzle back.
The camera is probably the only downside, that's just not as responsive as the S7, it just takes that bit longer to focus, but to me that's no biggie, as I don't care all too much about photography.
The Snapdragon is nice & snappy (see what I did there?), and combined with 4GB of RAM & clean Android One, performance is excellent.
PS - I ordered the X6 International version, which, when started up, identifies itself as the 6.1. So if you order that one from Gearbest, you're good. Here's the link: https://www.gearbest.com/cell-phones/pp_009787976351.html?wid=1349303
Amazing that you can get a phone this good for so little money. And it's not a ridiculous 6.2" or bigger "phablet" either.
