Hello guys, I'm considering buying the Honor 8 but I first would like to know something. Are the social media apps fast? Do Snapchat, Facebook, Messenger etc open very fast, does taking pictures go quick or does the device lag? Thanks in advance!

Belive me, no lag at all man.
It's faster than Samsung Galaxy 7, in terms of using apps(except snapchat i guess it's really bad for all phones).
For me there wasn't any lag at all, no overheat and batter is sweet as well (2-3 days for me).
I can say this is the fastest smartphone ?
Yes mate.
The phone is very quick. No lag that I have experienced.
The amount off ram tad the phone has is way over what is needed for social media.
My phone only ever seems to use a max 2GB out of the 4GB available.
The time when I see the best use of ram is when moving files etc.
Get the phone buddy it's a good un

the phone has a good cpu and will load apps quickly there will be youtube videos showing performance as well
Super smooth, (I'm using Instagram, Twitter and facebook on daily basis)
Since the Honor 8 runs on the Kirin 950, you have no problems opening apps.
With one of the top Huawei's Chipsets: HiSilicon Kirin 950, CPU: Octa-core (4x2.3 GHz Cortex-A72 & 4x1.8 GHz Cortex A53); CPU: Mali-T880 MP4 and 4 GB RAM, at this moment, this phone won't have any problems in multitasking. For Android 6.0 is enough to have a phone with 2Gb RAM to run smoothly. At this moment there aren't many apps presenting obstacles for this top phone.
Thanks guys! I bought the phone and it is amazing! Blazingly fast.

Hi, its been awhile ever since i visit this forum.
So pardon me for my lack of knowledge of all these geeky tech stuffs.
I'm currently in military service, so i would like to get a decent phone with noncam.
Any recommendations? (I thought of Huawei but taking other options or opinions isn't bad too
1. Would a 1.2ghz dual core or a 1.4ghz single core would be faster?
(I not a hardcore gamer on my phone, just tweeting, Facebook, browser, whatsapp, youtube, play some game. I rarely use my phone at home, if i ever do so, i'll use wifi instead.) -> this is for 2. and 3. respectively.
2. I know Ram is for multitasking but what does the CPU does? Would having more ram > cpu or cpu > ram?
3. Would you pick having 2gb to 3gb of 4G mobile data plan for a person who uses it like me? (money slightly does matters in term of mobile plan)
Yes, that's pretty much!
I'm sorry, i got nothing clue where to post. Would the mod move this if i'm wrong? :/
Thanks alot!
Here you go, this thread is for such a topic Thanks.

I know there is a thread about this somewhere, but i wanted to ask this in our forum (rethorical question)
Why are companies making 4 core cpu and 2 gb ram phones, i mean with those spec are ridiculous, you could play 8 different android games at an instance or have 40 background apps
Our pico i a great example, it works on games flawlessly, i can't say what i can't do on it
I dont even know a 512mb ram <1ghz single core phone which would lag at multi tasking, web browsing, office, gaming 'n stuff
our pico got scorpion cpu which is good for multitasking
our device is best in its range

Only problem for me are flash videos or high bandwith videos.. for example watching sports streams.. 500-1000 kbps is OK, but over 1000 lags too much.. 2000 kbps videos in Sopcast won't even run.
So I would like to have some faster CPU/more RAM, but I still like this phone so I am not considering buying a new one yet..

I know, there is a reason why they make 2core CPU-s and I just pointed to one of the examples
I think prob is with android coding. You see wp8 you can't just have any lag with try as you might and ios and bb10 seem to run perfectly with their respective configuration. That is why I am sick of android and am going to buy a Nokia lumia 820 or iPhone 4.

Hello everyone.
I was surfing the web yesterday and I discovered pretty weird android phone and wanted to share it with you guy. I don't know if you have heard about the phone ZOPO ZP980. If yes, please can you provide with more info, because i couldn't find any benchmarks or additional info.
So, the phone is 5 inch, Full HD, 13.1MP + 5MP front camera.
It has some kind of 4core CPU: MTK MT65891.2GHz, Cortex-A7 quad-core
GPU: Power VR SGX544
It looks pretty handsome and I kind of like it
It comes with 4/16GB ROM and 1GB RAM + sdCard support.
The best part is that it costs only 250$
So, everything looks like a high end expensive spartphone. But sounds too good to be true, so whats the problem with it?
I don't know what to expect from that phone as it is made in china. But sounds pretty cool.
Here's the official website link: http://www.zopomobileshop.com/en/10...d-13-mp-camera-mt6589-android-smartphone.html
Do you know about this phone? May be anyone owns it? Can you provide more info?

Zopo 980 is actually a really good device for those looking to switch from iPhone. It's obviously physically similar - making it easier to adjust versus typical phablet type devices.
Try the Official Zopo 980 Product Page for more details.

I was in the market too for this phone, but in the end I decided otherwise. I've ordered the UMi X2T.
Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtEzLsxd178 you have some extra info.
Been using the Zopo C2 (1Gb Ram 4Gb ROM) for the last 2 weeks. Frankly love the phone. The display is just amazing. 441 PPI.My colleagues have HTC One n Butterfly n Samsung S4 the display is just as good if not better viewing angles are amazing too. I've been playing Subway surfers n temple run with out any lag. Heavy games like Contract killer2 which gets stuck on my S3, works seamlessly on this. Antutu benchmark is a little under 12k. For the price $220 its much more than worth its price.

Hey guys, ive just received brand new Asus memo pad as a Christmas present! The thing is I had my Samsung galaxy s3 for quite some time and I really enjoyed it but since both of these systems are operating on android, I cannot seem but feel like I got something that I already have... I know the screen is bigger and it has a lilac more RAM and not to mention Quad core processor! Even my 3 year old laptop has dual core and I have no idea where the heck in the tablet you can use such a processor...
So my question is... is there any awesome stuff that I could use my tablet for, which I cannot use my phone with? And perhaps would it be possible to use some kind of software to boost my laptop's processor when connected to tablet??

Well basically you can enjoy playing games and watch videos even more on a tablet than on a phone.. And those apps that are optimized for Tablets only will take up your entire screen and make use of that by using it to display more texts and information.. And also there are some apps that are for Tablets only - so you can use them too.. And I think that's pretty much it..

Thanks for the reply, since you've mentioned that there are some appsnthat can only run on tablets, I was wondering could you actually name a few?
list of good tablet specific apps
as far as i get your query it is in relation to the abilities of a tablet as compared to a phone
a phone can do anything your tablet can do...but a tablet cant do the same
but.....
1. it has got a bigger screen size so better multimedia experience
2. in my experience a phone screen no matter how big (read less than 6 inches) always feels a bit cramped even when compared to a tablet with a 7 inch screen
3. you've got some great apps out there that look and feel better on tablets than phones
eg. office suite, netflix, kingsoft office, trulia
you wanted to know something you can do with a quad core processor
try these on a quad core and a dual core. you'll get to know the difference pretty fast-
mass effect, modern combat, real football, the dark knight, browsing the internet, watching shows and movies online etc etc
there's a lot to do on tablets
carry one to conferences. believe me it is better to use a tab in a conference than a phone

I have tried but all of these apps are not found on the google play store...
hmmmm...strange
it may be an issue of compatibility. go to www.play.google.com log in there and find these kinda apps. go to the install option, if these apps are compatible with your device you'll be able to send a link to the device. if not, then you can always find an apk here and there and then install them
but remember to pay for them, RESPECT DEVELOPERS ALWAYS
by the way, here and there refers to other app store for eg the amazon app store
good luck with the app hunting

if you can boost your laptop's performance with your tablet, then you should join Microsoft or intel, that should be some parallel computing technology enjoy you tablet with some fantastic games, i guess

You guys need to use better browser.
This thread was posted a whilst ago.
Enjoy
Ps - ucbrowser hd ftw!
OK guys I did the following to greatly improve chrome Browsing:
-disable Tapatalk and or TalkBack, whatever its called
- disable. Motion app, not sure what it does but yea.
- increase chrome tilesize to 512, Google for instructions.
- force gpu rendering.
It's considerably better but scrolling isn't buttery. Chrome
lags due to Google ads and JavaScript. To get buttery smooth scrolling, you have to disable JavaScript but plenty of sites are broken that way. Chrome JavaScript engine is just isn't optimised for us, while googling I saw same complaints on galaxy s6 users! So this is case of Huawei and Samsung not optimising their drivers etc. This is in no way a hardware or weaker gpu issue. This is just poor implementation of Android by Huawei.
- I stopped using chrome and am using UC browser, (not HD or any other version) its super smooth.
Fb is still meh. Hoping for inputs regarding fb.
I've MT7-TL10 I never got lags when I'm browsing
very smooth scrolling
Using Google chrome, firefox, and the default one
