That some are big time scammers i will agree but how do you know about this particular phone? Have you held it in your palms/hands?

Anybody buy this phone?

Its still on pre-sale.

I just received this phone yesterday. Quality built is pretty good, very solid and fast. But for some reason I don't get 4G LTE from tmobile, screen only shows 3G. But their advertising the phone have 4G LTE band.

Mine works fine on EE 4G. There's a forum section specially for the p7000 and there's a support chap from elephone who pops up every now and again.

New opponent on the way...

Maybe you heard about it...
Meizu is releasing mx5 pro mini soon...
This is what I believe will be the best Mi4c's opponent... Anyone here had or has any meizu to share the experience of having a meizu vs a xiaomi...
A while ago I've been tempted to buy the mx4 but for some reason I was afraid to go for it while for the Mi4c I didn't even think twice... I had to buy it no matter what... Maybe I'm a weird guy

Hmm it's just rumours though, I wonder what the final specs be. Won't beat Mi4C software-wise anyways because Meizu locks all of their roms and the bootloader :\.

Is that the 4.7" phone? 1080p screen but mediatek cpu

A friend of mine owned the MX4 Pro. He said the biggest downside was the Flyme OS. It used to have so many bugs.
But specswise it was a great phone. Even the fingerprint sensor used to be one of the fastest.

I have Meizu Note 2 and it's good. There's an option for it to be rooted so it's kind of easy and it's affordable,too.

Mediatek MT6797 Helio X20 look like an interesting SOC. The top performance is pretty much defined by the 2xCortex-A72 and Mali-T880 MP4 at Antutu score at 70,000.
I am more interested in the efficiency of the Tri-cluster. http://heliox20.com/ has some really nice graphical info

Tri-cluster:

Yes till now only rumours... But if these specs are real it'll be another nice machine... And the X20 looks powerful... But I also think I've seen somewhere and it will cost more than Mi4c... But definitely is nice to still have smaller but powerful devices because not everyone likes 5.5/6.0 phablets... To me, 5.0" is perfect size if fited in a compact body like Mi4c.
Anyway, so it means that there isnt much to do regarding costumization in meizu's? That's a NO GO for me... :/

Custom roms would be non existent like Samsung's exynos based phones

That phone will cost at least $400 and at least $500 to import. It isn't an opponent of the Mi4c, it is an opponent of the Mi Note Pro.

I dont think it'll cost that much... That's not price for a brand like meizu in that category... I've read that it's around 300 and if it's the case it will the 3gb version's opponent... Anyway, IMO it will be very hard to beat the Mi4c... This phone is just too good to be true... I wouldn't swap my mi4c for any phone available in the marke right know... And I mean no phone really...

I think it's not a direct opponent of 4c. It'll also cost more.

The youtube channel Geek Love has performed a comparison between 7 popular mid range smartphones:
Jiayu S3+
Doogee F5
Ulefone power,
Oukitel K6000 Pro
Leagoo Elite 1
Umi touch
Elephone P8000
These phones share some similar specifications, as they all have the MT6753 chip, 3GB of RAM, 13MP&5MP cameras. In this video, we see comparisons about:
Design–Back cover & frame materials, buttons
Display–Brightness, color temperature
Screens–Anti-fingerprint coating
Software–OS
Battery–Battery life, battery capacity
Quick charging–Input power
Hardware–Sensors, Storage
Performance–Antutu scores
You can see the whole test in the video below but meanwhile we did a small comparison chart so you can see all details faster:
Here is the full video:

why did u forget great mid-range like these:
redmi note 3
redmi 3
le eco 1s
honor 5x
oneplus x

Le eco 1s eco is a bull **** I am using the phone the ui is crappy also it is full of bloatware.no improvement even after the update provided actually its injecting more bloatware.
Will suggest not to buy this phone
Sent from my Le X509 using XDA-Developers mobile app

I would definitely recommend Elephone. Had a chance to play wit it for some time and its a great overall phone.

Android phone is really cheaper and cheaper

The letv team is launching a new phone every month this makes me more assured that the buyers are not going to get support for these phones .the ui is buggy and crappy .camera app is worst than a 5k handset they have huge amount of bloatware already loaded that even 3 GB ram is insufficient to handle those terrorists.rather than addressing these issues they are launching new buggy handsets.my advise is to stay away from this manufacturer

i would prefer elephone.
i tried elephone s1 and it really looks cool and stylish. downside is, the battery, it can only last up for a day.

[Discussion] Are 48MP rear camera plus 25 MP Selfie Camera the best KSP of View20?

One of my friends asked me how about Honor View20, what is the 48MP+25MP, Is it worth buying? What's your opinion?

Ofcourse if he can afford it. Its real 48 MP and front cam is amazing too

There's a video review from Ben's Gadget Review, and the photos look really impressive, especially low-light photos when using "pixel binning".

Used this phone during Honor 10 lite launch on 15th. Camera is amazing

Been using the phone for 2 days now, given the price, it is absolutely mind blowing. It is easily at the same level of phones several hundred pounds more expensive.
The camera quality is amazing, and the AI focus/item recognition is great. The only thing I don't like about this phone is the lack of a baked in dark mode, but there are plenty of themes that fix that problem with a few taps.
The processor the phone comes with is currently the fastest on the market until snapdragon release a new chip I believe, and it really shows. I haven't hard closed a single app since turning the phone on for the first time (just keep them in the background) and it's not impacted it at all.
Magic UI can take some getting used to, but the non-Chinese versions of the phone allow launcher changes with no hassle if you want to use something else.
The phone doesn't have built in contactless charging, but at the asking price, there has so be some sort of downside (if contactless charging is an advantage, it never works well for me)
So far there's absolutely nothing bad I can say about this phone other than I wish it supported standardised expandable memory, but I got the 256GB model, so it's not a big issue for me. There are rumours that the phone might support Huawei's proprietary SD card, but no confirmation.
It's got a beautiful design (I'm sticking with the clear case that comes in the box), it's amazingly fast, it has one of the best camera sensors available on the smartphone market and the battery life is fantastic (4,000 mA). If you aren't a brand loyalist and are looking for a phone upgrade, there's no reason to not buy this phone unless it's out of your price range (buy on contract!!)

It's balanced smartphone, it check lists every users needs & fulfilled the demands without spending too much money! It's a win-win for Manufacturers as well as for the Consumers. Honor View20 is one step ahead in Camera, Performance, Design.

So Xiaomi devs dont know anything about same phone but different specs.
Probably Xiaomi send them one phone to work on it for Android 10 update and they started working on these specs.
LCD:
oncell,vendor:bird,IC:lol898
TP:
[Vendor](TP) + EBBG(LCD), [TP-IC]GT917D,[FW]Ver501c,[CFG]Ver0x55
Back Camera Sensor:
Sony IMX486
Update worked on that cheap specs. It worked but update caused black spots on the bottom of the Screen.
Source
On the other side:
Mi A2 Lite has 2 different hardware versions. Xiaomi forgot their cheaper then the cheaper policy.
LCD:
oncell,vendor:csot,IC:hx8399c
TP:
[Vendor]Ofilm(TP) + CSOT(LCD), [TP-IC]FT5446,[FW]Ver12
Back Camera Sensor:
OmniVision 12a10
People who has cheaper then the cheaper specs on their Mi A2 Lite, they get Black Screen Of Death. Because Kernel dont know what to do with that hardware. Xiaomi forgot to implement some drivers.
Source
Now Xiaomi pulled the Android 10 update. They said its partially released but who knows.
This is new:
" Xiaomi is aware of the Android 10 update issues in Mi A2 Lite and the launch to users of that device has now been suspended . Our teams are now working to solve the problem and our goal is to implement an update via OTA throughout March. Affected users are recommended to take their devices to authorized Xiaomi service centers for post-sale assistance."
Source
So theyre gonna release new version of the Android 10 in March 2020.
Another thing related with this:
60 fps Video Recorder doesnt work on OmniVision 12a10 Camera Sensor it works only on Sony IMX486 sensor.
First release of Android 10:
V11.0.2.0.QDLMIXM (Bricks the phones)

So the Devs got the better one with Sony camera, right? Not necessarily more expensive to buy, but to manufacture.
As far as I know the specs were random and the price didn't differ, so the only "cheaper" version was the 3/32 one, which had a lower price tag.
The post is a bit unclear as you stated that both the cheaper and the cheaper version did and didn't work at the same time.

Its just a theory.
I dont believe specs were random thing. It cant be. More profit cant be made randomly.
If it uses OmniVision Back Camera sensor instead of Sony, yes i can tag that OV sensor as a cheap and i believe there is a some kind of philosophy behind that choice which is more profit. I cant compare easly other hw like that. But when i look with that philosophy its not that hard to tag them as a cheap.

My install was via OTA was straightforward and my phone works. The only issue is that i can't write on the SD card via an explorer app. The camera stores pictures on the external storage but i can't even access it through Total commander or any other.
