I've recently just ordered a Newman N2, to replace my ageing HTC Sensation XE, and was wondering whether anyone had any experience, views, opinions on this phone? As you can see from the specs below it is quite similar to the Samsung Galaxy S3. Importantly though it costs a lot less.
The reason I'm posting this on XDA is in hope that some developers will be interested in it and start to develop custom ROMs for this impressive budget alternative to the Samsung Galaxy S3.

I currently have this phone and I'm using the Loqi Rom (Android 4.1.1).
It is really fast and has a nice clean interface. A Cyanogenmod rom would make it fly very high...

That would be good. I'd love to see AOKP myself, as I'm currently running that on my HTC Sensation XE. I've tried lots of different ROMs, but I always come back to AOKP.

this phone currently is just a combination of great hardware and crappy medium firmware.
Buggy and unstable firmware which is annoying.
I hope there would be some awesome ppl who will create some better roms.

Totally agree. If someone can create a solid ROM, then this phone will be amazing. Especially when compared to the similarly spec'd Samsung Galaxy S3, which costs a whole lot more.

I dig the new leather-like back. They can't say they are using cheap plastic backing anymore.... they could start saying Samsung is using cheap leather. Hopefully, that is not the case.

that's a really nice phone .... I think that may have to be my next upgrade

where the hell are the xda note III forums? Seriously...

Will it have FM Radio? If I'm going to buy, it will be from Expansys (link) but no detail on this.
N.B. I don't want to enter any argument about why I want FM

Is thata micro usb charging port? Looks thinner and wider to me

It's the USB 3.0 Micro-B connector. You can connect a 'standard' mirco USB cable in one side of it.

From what I have read, it does not have FM Radio.

where is the NFC tag?

Very useful are the Software feature, especially the desktop search.
I like the covers from Samsung, turning screen off when just closing the cover and turning it back on, opening the cover.

Plus being the first smartphone with the new Qualcomm QFE1100 chip, the radio battery drain is reduced by 30%!

For sure there would be a new gen Snapdragon 400 to be announced on CES 2014. Plus, if I remember it right, Sony ordered a 4.3" qHD AMOLED panel from AUO that got delayed for more than a year. If there would no longer be any more delays, I'd like to see it in the Xperia L1. With these, I'd like a 2300 mAh battery, smaller bezels and slimmer body but maintain the ergonomics, larger camera sensor but maintain it to 8 MP, better image processing algorithm, 4.4 on board, 1 GB RAM, at least 16 GB internal memory (for god's sake) with expandable memory up to 64 GB.

Not to bash on you or anything. The title says 'Concept Phone'. So it is just an idea.

Hahahaa,,Ok then

People, you do get that it is just an idea. Sony did not announce this or anything. Someone thought of a concept that it is an upgraded version of the XL. But the XL is not a flagship device, it is a standalone device. This means there will never be any upgraded version of the L.

Xiaomi Mi4
Xiaomi Mi4 is probably bound to be announced sooner or later this year as various information leaks and alleged snapshots of parts of the phone recently came out. This powerful flagship phone reportedly will bear a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 series chipset (probably Snapdragon 805), 5.5-inch IPS OGS screen, 3GB RAM, Android 4.4 KitKat OS, and 4G-LTE support. Check out the rest of the specs here: http://www.chinaphonereview.com/xiaomi-mi4
If the leaks are true, then we are looking at a very impressive phone. Have you heard of any news regarding the release date and updated info about Xiaomi Mi-4? Please share what you know about it.
*UPDATE:
Official specs - 5.0-inch IPS OGS Gorilla Glass 3 screen, Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 quad core 2.5GHz CPU, 3GB RAM, 4G-LTE support...

Xiaomi Mi4 come with Qualcomm Snapdragon 805, 3GB RAM 32GB ROM, support 4G LTE, 16.0MP rear camera, 5.0MP front camera...

Specs Here: :good:
http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_4-6518.php

Generally a blatant copy of iPhone 5 or 5s, with a little photoshop work, while the back cover is that of Huawei Honor 3X.

Still quite impressive phone. Depends on the price, but I'm considering buying it.
It has a metal housing, so it should be tougher than an average smartphone these days. Says it's also IP67 certified on gsmarena specs, but I doesn't says anything about that on official page.

well, i hope they release kernel source so people will want to buy it and develop for it.

Official specs of Xiaomi Mi4:
Snapdragon 801 quad core 2.5GHz CPU, 5.0-inch IPS OGS Gorilla Glass 3 screen, 3GB RAM, 4G-LTE support... :good:

I just got this phone, I really like it a lot
http://colonelzap.blogspot.de/2014/08/xiaomi-mi4-video-review-snapdragon-801.html

Anyone know if it has Qi charging and can confirm the IR blaster?

The IR blaster is there ...

i had to send mine back they put the antenna on the bottom of the phone. and every time i grip it like you normally would grip and phone. it kills my signal. i dont know if there is something wrong with my phone or this is a wide spread issue

I will wait for LTE/4G ..

im planning want to buy mi3.. after watch this i think i should wait for mi4 launch at my country..

they launched here 4g so they slowed down 3G on purpose.. stays on 4MB only ..
4G runs 20-30MB

Do we use MI4 in other countries?
Hi all,
If we buy MI4 at China, could we use it with sim card other countries? Is there a World version?
Please tell about this issue.
Thanks

This will be a beastly phone, i saw the design online and it's pretty nice .
It's not as good designed as HTC M8 or LG G3 but in combination with 3GB RAM Memory and 2,5 Ghz quadcore with cheap price compared to LG G3 is it a top choice for people that want a good phone
Cheers !

Yesterday a friend of mine got his Mi4, too, and i had the same feeling, that it is not as smooth as my Huawei Honor 6. The speed of opening an app is almost the same, but the xiaomi stuff's switch of home screens had some hiccups.

Memory expendable with SD/Card.

Wish it came in 64GB and had OIS for the camera like the P8MAX. Wish it had LTE capabilities in the USA (don't we all). Wish it had a removeable battery. But, otherwise, I LOVE this device because it has a great 7" display but is still a manageable size. And it has memory expandable with an sdcard. 5mp front camera - niiice. And, of course, a CPU that you certainly don't see on many devices...

The battery was the #1 reason I bought this. The #2 reason is the screen size.

Its missing fm tuner as well

Actually, the international version, GEM-702L (and thus probably 701L), comes with in-ear phones with FM-tuner which works perfect!

Exactly. Poor earphones and still its delivered with (with 702L at least)
I was expecting better quality ones (the blue ones huawei branded)
