Even if the price drop down to S$250/- no way it is useful
with that 2GB Ram.

Regular users know pretty well, the more
Ram the better as one can have more tasks done at the
same time.

A rather sweeping statement this is? :s8::s8::s8:

Seriously, 2GB ram is okay depending on your usage. Somewhat of a no no for heavy (a lot of gaming + social apps usage concurrently) or impatient users but more than okay for an average user. Not everyone needs a 3-4gb ram phone or the best camera out there....

Also more RAM does not 100% = better. Sometimes it's the UI optimisation. For those who are using phones from manufacturers with famously lousy UIs, it becomes a Ram chase but in all honesty, the RAM will never be enough if the UI optimisation is flawed.

May be you are asking too much. There is still smart phone with 1G ram running fine. It really depend you use phone as phone or a game device.

Lenovo wants the world to know they got plenty of designers
and engineers behind their products and devices, but from
the specs of the PHAB Plus it looks like their vision is a
bit on the short term kind of thing.

Hopefully they can come out with the next upgrade on the
PHAB Plus with either a 3GB Ram version at lower price and
a 4GB Ram version at higher price, else experienced
high end users won't find their phablet useful because of
its poor performance especially in photo and video editing.
(The current 2GB Ram is far from wanting in performance
as a useful tablet).

The size of 6.8 inch is just appropriate for those who prefer
using it as a tablet for serious work. There should be a
version for single sim as well, so that the cost is lower for
those who don't need dual sim.

As for the battery, it should be at least 4000maH instead of
the current 3500maH and if possible removable.

Any news that Lenovo will be upgrading this phablet soon?

A sucessful company will covers both general users at affortable price and demanding user at a premium price.

A demanding user does not means he is a smart users. As sometime they paid extra for something he can manage with other method till price vs technology is in good ratio.

Vibe Z2 Pro better in terms of
- Big batt
- SD801
- 3G Ram
- 16M Camera
- better PPI

Vibe Z2 Pro weaker in terms of
- Android 4.4 (??)
- availiability

It all depend on individual user. After using two devices
both with 2GB Ram and one with a 3GB Ram, my personal
style and usage seems to opt for more Ram.

The devices are from Samsung while the the 3GB Ram
device is from LG. I have to abandon using the devices
with the 2GB Ram because it does not suit my styles of
using them. I don't play any games, just surf the Net,
no Facebook either, email, messages, photo editing and
I don't edit video at all, only still pictures of 5-mega pixels
only.

So, having a device with only 2GB Ram disregarding
the UI, is no use to me. But if Lenovo seems not willing
to put in more Ram, it is their problem and I am not
making a sweeping statement having used 2GB Ram
devices for a couple of months, I gave up.
