Moto X4 is good but too old. Probably will not get android Q unless I go custom ROMs route which I don't want to do. The nokia ones are guaranteed to get 2 major updates after oreo as they are android one phones.

I more or less decided on 6.1plus. Till tomorrow flipkart has a 500 discount but if I wait for a week the republic day sale may have a 10% discount but no announcement yet. Need to decide on that. About future I am more optimistic. I tend to use phones for 2,3 years by that time hopefully some...

I have given up on compact phone. It seems iphone se is the only proper compact phone in market which is too old and a lot over priced. I think I have to look for 145mm to 150mm height phones for a decent one. On flipkart Honor 9n 64gb is available for 11k, nokia 5.1 plus for 10k and nokia 6.1...

1. Budget? <10k ideal. 15K absolute max. 2. Display type and size? More than the resolution I am worried about physical size. (<145mm height is nice ) 3. Dual sim? Not important. I use only one sim. 4. Preferred choice of brand? As long as customer support is there in Bangalore. 5. What camera...

I was using Redmi 3s for 2+ years. When I look the phone market now it looks like tablets made a come back in the name of smart phones. There is absolutely no good, new phone which doesn't poke out of pocket (I use my shirt pocket). Is there any good compact budget phone. I want 3+ GB Ram and...

Got the phone. I like it so far. Excellent camera and good sound levels. Installed google now launcher as I miss app drawer. Only negative point is the lack of 2GB RAM shows. Nothing annoying but you notice it

Bought redmi 2 today. Was leaning toward yuphoria but flipkart has 10% off today. So bought it.

Is the focusing on Yuphoria that bad? Does the manual focusing (taping on the screen) work if auto focusing is not working?

Ok. May be it is a defective piece then and I am unlucky to get the problem twice. But you said you got it once when you are setting up the phone. So it might be the issue with the settings I use for this particular ROM. For e.g., I turn off auto sync off, disable security app and some other...

Back to square one now. My parameters were 4.5 to 5 inch phone with HD display, decent camera with 8+ MP and 4G. A6000plus was really good. It seems my only options if I want 4G and not 5.5" screen are (redmi and yuforia) both of which I am not comfortable with. If I compromise with 5.5" then...

anyway yuphoria and yureka are not options as one is out of stock and the other's next sale is on 11th. I need a phone quickly as I dont have a backup phone. Thinking of ordering one today as the A6000plus is scheduled to be picked up tomorrow (Had to fight a lot as they want to send another...

I saw in some reviews that Cyanogen is not that stable. - - - Updated - - - Yes. It is same issue. It comes rarely if you don't use wifi. But with wifi always enabled, it occurs very frequently. I got it atleast once a day when wifi is used where as went without any issue for 5 days without...

Update. The second phone had the same problem. As the issue is random the flipkart guys refused to replace this phone again. So went to service center when the phone froze and got a job sheet saying the phone is faulty. I hope this is enough for flipkart now. Going to ask them for refund rather...

Flipkart agreed to replace the phone. At first the technician rejected the request. But just after one hour I got another phone freeze. As usual I had to long press power button for 15 seconds. I called them again to ask reconsider the rejection and the customer care guys accepted the...

Even without google launcher the phone is getting the "sleep of death" problem. I did a factory reset now. And I asked for replacement at flipkart. Hope the factory reset fixes it as I am not confident about flipkart accepting a problem that I cant reproduce (it happens randomly and about once a...
