As for the camera, it is 13mp rear one with ois capability and you can download some camera modes from Galaxy apps store such as rear cam selfie, etc.....
As for the front one it is 5 mp camera which is actually amazing (But to be honest I prefer the rear cam selfie mode)
As for the battery it is non removable with a capacity of 3300 mah which stays along the day (Note: This differs according to your use to the device as I am not a hardcore gamer and I do not play RR3)
As for heating, It barely heats on using mobile data but on gaming It heats up but it doesn't exceed about 39 or 40°C (Again as I said above it differs from one user to another) and as for ordinary use (when not playing games) it barely warms up (A back cover will make the warmth of the device barely sensed)

Well it depends on the region you live in:
If you live in India and your device was bought from India (For knowledge the Indian model is SM-A710FD) the upgrade will be available soon as I think (It may be available but I do not know so for reference you could go to the Galaxy A series page on xda fourms)
For more knowledge: I have a galaxy a7 6 which I upgraded to marshmallow and it carries the same Indian model number although it is not bought from India, that is because my device is middle eastern as in the middle east the firmware of SM-A710FD is the same as SM-A710F which had the marshmallow update released a week ago so I found one of the middle eastern firmwares of SM-A710F and downloaded it onto my SM-A710FD and it worked normally but this method won't work on your device if you are in India since the network bands in India is different than ours (middle eastern).
Conclusion: Do not try to install the marshmallow SM-A710F on SM-A710FD if you are in India due to different network bands.
Note: That's my conclusion of all what I had read about your issue since I also have SM-A710FD so I was worried if I had bricked my device until I knew that in middle east is different than in India.
Sorry for my many words

Hi, I am from India, I have SM-A710FD and I flashed the official MM ROM available for SM-A710F . No isses, everything is working fine in India. So whoever in India wants to flash SM-A710F MM, they can go ahead. Everything is just awesome.

Exactly.
This is an excellent device.
BTW, Have you flashed the Russian official MM or any thing else ?
Is dual sim and other things working flawlessly with root ? What about battery backup ?

Thanks for sharing.
Actually I use both 2 sims with MicroSD card. That`s why I`m asking.
A710FD is the only variant, which has 2 sim slots and a dedicated MicroSD card. And all the other variants has 2 slots - 1 is a sim slot and the other one is a Hybrid slot.

Nope.
A710FD has not got the Official MM yet. Though I don`t have any idea about OTA update, as mine is rooted with custom recovery. But I`ve searched and googled about this and don`t get any fruitful result yet.
But hopefully this one will get official MM shortly.
But really this is an excellent device. Excellent display, Battery Life, No Lag, Dual Sim with a dedicated Memory card slot ( one of the best dual sim phone right now).
So, this my short review of A710FD as a user.
Hope this will help you.

What issues ? If you know of problems you should help the developer and submit logs so they can be addressed. It (CM13) works fine on all versions of the 5X.

known issues >
camera hangs and sucks batttery like crazy if you do 2 hdr photos. Don't use hdr.
dt2wake doesn't use the proximity sensor to filter bogus d2twake triggers and therefore can turn on too easily in your pocket.
fingerprint sensor
fm radio: works fine but attempting to record audio causes the it to hang, be impossible to stop and keep playing the radio.
other gestures (I don't even know what they are because I didn't run stock long enough to find out so if you want support tell me)
selinux is in permissive mode
switching data subscriptions between sims requires manually setting your preferred network to 2G before switching
smart view case support
single sim hardware: requires unplugging and replugging sim after every boot
Dev getting plenty of feedback ...
It not suitable for GR5 KII devices or at least not tested & no specific KII kernal ...

i would say... depends.
what do you value in the phone? what do you like or don't like?
i'm not a fan of curved edges, so, if it's between Honor9 and S7edge, my choice is obvious -- Honor9.
processor and storage wise, i believe honor9 is the better one too.

Hi
I mean no offense to any providers, but I seriously think that fancy phones are a waste of money.
Still, if you wanna go and get one, I would recommend the S7 as the robustness, look and feel and the service the phone is offered by the company.
If you want more features and power, Honor 9 is the way to go!

Chinese version
Hi,
I bought the honor 9 in a preorder sale.
But now I have some concerns regarding the version. it is a Chinese multi-language ROM, I use Hebrew and English fonts, should I encounters any problems? how does a Chinese version affect me?
Is there a way to change ROM?
Is it rooted?

Hey guys n00b question: what kind of roms are currently available for the honor 9, and how easy is to root/unlock bootloader? Following that question to potential Pokemon players, does root permissions block use of the game and android pay?
Thanks
Side note the Honor 9 has different models, China, Europe, US, India to ne a few. Now to get the full radio band for your network provider you need to check it support your network provider if your get the device from outside of you regional zone.
If the Honor 9 radio bands are set up like the Honor 8s well your going to have difficulty depending on network provider.
Best thing to do if buying from say China is to make sure you buy one that fully work back in your country..
What kind of storage does the honor 9 use? I can't find any information on it. Was hoping for UFS obviously but considering it isn't mentioned anywhere I presume it's emmc 5.1
I've found after updating to MiFavor 5.0 B08 that Daydream VR was getting a incompatible phone message and not opening. I thought it was a bug because many apps which relies on Play Services were not working. So I went back to MiFavor 4.
When MiFavor 5.0 B13 version came out one of these days, I've updated and again got the same error. So I dig into ZTE's official chinese forum and using Chrome translator I've found that they are not supporting Daydream VR anymore on updated chinese version.
Yes, that's right. ZTE have shut down one of the most important reason that I've bought this phone (and I think there are a lot of users that bought because of this too).
Now we have to stay locked with a Nougat version that is still compatible or unlock bootloader and change to US or G ROM.
Great move, ZTE! Always thinking on your consumers when ditching out Android features, specially the one you heavily promoted to increase your sells.
Another post with user complaining and getting the same robotic answer.
That realy sux and will lose ZTE a lot of customers who will go elsewhere next purchase.
Hopefully a bug which will be fixed.
is this true?.. im thinking of buying this phone being the cheapest with Daydream com patibility and if not..
He's talking about the CHINESE version the international one supports Daydream
Mine is stock on 7.1 1 Nougat at MiFavor UI 4.2 and is Daydream compatible. Need a Daydream View 2 next but will have to be careful if any updates break it.

Might be just that it is a Google service and China blocks things Google.
I'm still thinking if I rollback to MiFavor 4.2 or try the Toolkit to convert my phone to US ROM. I really enjoy MiFavor 5.0 in all aspects. It's a pity that they removed Daydream support from now on. At least it seems they did. Hope they change their minds and it returns in future updates.
And I agree with you. I think it has something to do with Google services blocked in China.
What’s so important on ZTE stock launcher and can’t live without it??
It’s so so poor of customization and lack many features others third party launcher offer.
First thing did when bought Axon 7(G) version is get rid of stock launcher as also replace most of the out of box app with much better third one.
Version 5 MiFavor look very MUI style witch sucks as it is iOS wannabe.

Of course, anything by Google is banned in China.

Be aware that Daydream mode forces pretty much everything on the phone to run at max even if it's not completely necessary. The phone overheats incredibly quickly. The Daydream View 2 uses a mini heatsink to help a little but I doubt it will do much. I have the original Daydream View and VR is pretty much unusable on this phone much like the original Pixel/Pixel XL. That is unless you like your battery hitting 50C and rapidly degrading. Naturally the phone will throttle if just the battery is that hot.
I can't speak for the Pixel/XL, but the Axon 7 uses its own battery as a heatsink, it has a heatpipe running from the SoC to the battery. I wouldn't have bought this phone if I knew that. Or many other things...
Working just fine on my ResurrectionRemix Rom on 7.1.2 - just have to change a value in the build.prop and you're good to go
Hi, rafabrasil85, I have the same problem, can you tell the IMEI of your phone? I might ask ZTE technicians by email, so...
---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------
Hi, have you find the solution to your phone and VR?
Hi. I gave up and reinstalled MiFavor 4 chinese ROM compatible with VR. But in the process I unlocked bootloader and rooted. So I'll stay like this for a while. In future I'll change for Global or US version.
Hi, paatha13, what is your phone mode number? A2017, or A2017G? A2017 is Chinese version, have you tried VR in A2017 or A2017U? Thanks for your reply.
rafabrasil85, to which version do You downgrade?because i downgrade to b17 clear data and cache and still dont have compatibility with daydream

I've found after updating to MiFavor 5.0 B08 that Daydream VR was getting a incompatible phone message and not opening. I thought it was a bug because many apps which relies on Play Services were not working. So I went back to MiFavor 4.
When MiFavor 5.0 B13 version came out one of these days, I've updated and again got the same error. So I dig into ZTE's official chinese forum and using Chrome translator I've found that they are not supporting Daydream VR anymore on updated chinese version.
Yes, that's right. ZTE have shut down one of the most important reason that I've bought this phone (and I think there are a lot of users that bought because of this too).
Now we have to stay locked with a Nougat version that is still compatible or unlock bootloader and change to US or G ROM.
Great move, ZTE! Always thinking on your consumers when ditching out Android features, specially the one you heavily promoted to increase your sells.

Don't know friend I am also waiting for
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Eagerly waiting here as well..??
Maybe in 2099.
Bought a new G6 for my wife, it arrived yesterday. I was actually surprised that the Oreo update was not available already. In any case, the wait begins now.
It's disappointing!

Two more weeks then.
Thanks for informing us
LG should change their developers cause they are ****! 9months for a update, amazing:laugh: no LG for me, never.
I wonder what the hell makes Oreo update this hard? They already dispatched an update for dual sim models. All the G6s are using the same hardware. So, what makes it this hard to implement Oreo update for Indian versions? Someone explain this pls.

Mohammad str, Appreciate your announcement. Is there any chance to consider below items with Oreo or next update.
1) VoLTE support for Airtel, Vodafone and Idea. (Many devices released at same time like One plus 5 updated to VoLTE long back).
2) Option to reduce screen resolution to FHD+ for improved battery life, reduced standby battery drain and reduced screen stuttering (please do not abandon this when same option is given for V30)
3) AICam and Graphy feature if possible.
Thanks in Advance. A reply is highly appreciated.

Hi guys,
Can anyone using the 3gb/32gb variant please assist with my queries, it would be greatly appreciated.
- How is the overall ram management after the latest update? (What is the latest update?) Any lags experienced?
- Also how is gaming on the device, example: real racing 3, asphalt 8? Any drop in frame rates on these types of games?
Thanks
No issues for me but I run Lineage OS.
So after further reading Im abit confused. The redmi note 5 (india version which Im planning on getting) & redmi 5 plus (global) are identical but do they share the same model number MEG7? If not what is the model number for the indian variant and can the device be used outside of india as Im not from there? Will it receive ota updates outside of india?
Also with the upcoming oreo and miui 10 update, will the 3gb version take a hit on overall performance?
Thanks

in india we use MEI7. Talking about the performance, after the oreo update, the phone has started feeling faster. I am using MIUI 10 8.7.10. I have no idea about if it will work outside india, but most of the phones work. And yes it will recieve OTA updates outside india. Redmi Note 5/5 plus is a great device if your budget is tight ( 3 gb 32gb ) but if you are planning to get the 4gig variant then i would suggest add 2k more and get Redmi Note 5 Pro. it is much much much better than that! I am a student and i had a tight budget so i got the 3gig variant! ( i sold my OnePlus 3 for this RN5)

The device is great for the price. RAM management is an issue but it is due to MIUI. Custom Roms works great! Gaming is Awesome. It can run the above games at decent frame rate. Its a great device for light gaming.

Thanks for the reply, is there any difference between MEG7 or MEI7 like gsm bands or modems? The gsm bands on the note 5 is similar to my country so I believe that it will work fine. Yes I looked into the idea of the Pro version but with the flash sales its not possible. The 3gb is fine for me overall for now as I will upgrade later on, just needed to find out its overall performance on gaming and the miui 10 update. Are you using the beta version of miui 10?
Thanks again

LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 40(2300), 41(2500) - India . As per GSMArena.com

I've not played PUBG but from alot of reading I gather that, that game seems graphically heavier than the two racing games I've initially asked about. Will i be correct in that assumption?
3 of those bands are used in my country so thats okay

yes pubg is graphically demanding then those two games but some games are poorly optimized. i tried playing shadowgun something something(i dont remember that full name), it lagged heavily. PUBG works great but u have to play at Smooth settings. Asphalt 8 works flawlessly
