My recommendation is the ZTE axon 7. 5.5 inch screen with local 2 yr warranty and good audio plus headphone jack. Camera is passable. Price shld be very good also.

haiya... never really gone but here to look see when qoo10 had that promo. potentially need to replace my 32gb Note 5. Need a good camera phone at the note 5 size ideally..

would love to get a pixel but warranty matters so skipped that. and not a fan of the ip7 due to lack of headphone jack. got any other recommendations? :D

Hmmmm passable only ah? I need to see it in the flesh. do you know if any stores carry a physical set? strange, didnt hear much about the LG G6 somehow. How's the Pixel? :D


Came from Mate 9. Had super high praises for it but the screen really kills it for me. Had it side by side with my Note 5 and the colour calibration on the Mate 9 throws off my photo editing. Everything else is good assuming the latest updates from Huawei didn't kill it too much :s13:

i tried going into recovery mode. but i think the bootloader is locked... i waited almost 20 mins for the phone to boot up but it went blank.

Sounds like either you don't know how to go into recovery, or something wrong with your phone. There is no relation between locked bootloader and going into recovery. One can go into recovery regardless of bootloader lock status.

Google it and read some guides on how to go into recovery. Basically, shutdown, hold power + vol down till it vibrates, then see screen.

Because g6 not on sale yet. S8 will start selling before g6 comes.

Me too. I can't stand the not here not there tgsp currently available in the market. Bought a few paste alr then straight remove and throw. Same combi as you. Rugged armor and bare screen so just have to be careful when using the phone.

U still can go into bootloader right? Use sideload method to flash the full update since just out of box, should have nothing to backup.

Alternatively, if you bought from expansys, i noted they left the original full update in the phone when they flashed to oxygen os, you can go in recovery, try to find and flash that first. Then redo your upgrade again.

I just got the phone from Expansys a few days back and realised that the phone gets pretty hot at random timings, not just during charging. The battery life also doesn't seem that good.

Does this have to do with the latest update that they loaded before shipping or anything?
Anyone else facing this problem?
