Blueray Hypersonic September 2, 2017 Share September 2, 2017 i don't really like my sony lol. The only thing i can agree is that it has a good battery life the old one. Am used to Sony's simple menu and I disable their UI. So its almost stock Android. One shop at Far East did say Sony and Apple handphones have better batteries. I do agree that statement is true for my Sony. Read that human eye can only discern like 230+ppi, so 400+ ppi on a full HD screen is overkill for me. The model I am looking at (XA1) is using the camera system last installed on Z5. My current o/s is stuck at Android 4.3 and does not run well with some newer stuff. Tends to hang. So looking to change hardware when price is right. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my very old xperia was already past 4.3 liao LOL, i think it was 5.0 when i updated it to be a spare phone for my parents. But it uplorry shortly after that. My dad had some problems with a sony C3 as well. In the end he dulan, buy a Samsung S7. No complaints since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueray Hypersonic September 2, 2017 Share September 2, 2017 (edited) Samsung doesn't have to be expensive, xiaomi and oppo also have sub $300 phones. rps20170902_132047.jpg rps20170902_132113.jpg Yup, bought a Samsung A3 for my mum last year at $300+ from Far East. Good phone and battery can last 2 days easy for her. Molested Oppo before, a bit too plasticky ... Was keen on the Huawei P10 but selling price more ex than Sony XZ and read somewhere Huawei UI cannot disable one. Anyways, am a simple handphone user so don't need to buy top line hardware anymore. Save the money for buying plane ticket. Hmm, really? I think my very old xperia was already past 4.3 liao LOL, i think it was 5.0 when i updated it to be a spare phone for my parents.

Actually I do not like to upgrade the o/s, cos once upgrade already other compatibility issues will crop up. I did one upgrade cos the SQ and Shopback apps required newer o/s, so boh pian. Upgrade already Chrome hangs more often. Edited September 2, 2017 by Blueray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueray Hypersonic September 2, 2017 Share September 2, 2017 Sony XZ? Quite pricey at the moment. Probably XA1 instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They has one for one change within first for water/screen crack. So 12 months ending can just dip your a57 in wanton soup..go get a new phone. Definitely beat tied up tesco contract.

Best thing about Note 4 is its removable battery. But it's a defunct model now. Edited September 3, 2017 by DACH Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kb27 Supersonic September 9, 2017 Share September 9, 2017 One thing is the phones bought with Telco are usually loaded with bloatware. Can't uninstall unless you root your phone. When I bought my V20 separately and load in my ST sim, it auto install the apps. I was not connected to any wifi then. Telcos are really stupid or really dumb. They know everyone complains about their bloatware, but they continue dumping useless bloatware on you. Nobody use your STUPID BLOATWARE ! Just keep it to yourself.

Pretty sure they are being paid for this. I read that some phones come with govt software too (can't remember the name but it is the one that they were forcing NSFs to download!)
