Packaging and equipment

The box for OnePlus X is made to perfection: nice colors, a pleasant matte finish that vaguely resembles rubber, and a neat layout of all the contents. This kind of packaging will come in handy if you are going to give a smartphone to someone.

In addition to the smartphone itself, the package includes: power adapter, microUSB synchronization cable, instructions and a paperclip for opening the SIM card tray. Additionally, the package includes a nice silicone clip case, glossy on the sides and matte on the back. Plus, a high-quality protective film was found on the smartphone screen under the protective shipping film, although without.

Appearance and ergonomics

Screen

The smartphone is equipped with a 5-inch screen with FullHD resolution, a pentile matrix, but due to the high PPI, artifacts of such a subpixel arrangement structure are practically invisible. All the advantages of AMOLED screens in OnePlus X are obvious - endless contrast, deep blacks, and almost absolute viewing angles.

But the shortcomings of the technology have not gone away: the colors on the smartphone screen are amazing; in the system settings there is no option to adjust the color gamut.
The touch screen is fine; it can detect up to 10 touches at a time; it does not respond to gloved hands. The screen has a good brightness reserve and an effective anti-glare filter, thanks to which you can comfortably use the smartphone outdoors in sunny weather.

Hardware platform and performance

OnePlus X runs on the time-tested Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 platform; let me remind you that this system-on-chip includes four Krait 400 (ARMv7) cores, the maximum frequency of which is limited to 2.3 GHz, and an Adreno 330 graphics processor. 3 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory corresponding to the eMMC5.0 standard, 11.4 GB available for user needs. There is a slot for microSD memory cards up to 128 GB.

Despite the fact that the OnePlus X 801 snap is slightly “stifled”, its performance is enough to solve the vast majority of tasks and for comfortable everyday use. Most games at medium settings produce a sufficient number of frames per second. In AnTuTu, OnePlus X scores 40,997 points, in the Geekbench 3 singlecore test - 914 points.

Cellular communications and interfaces

The smartphone can operate on LTE Cat.4 networks with a theoretical peak download speed of 150 Mbps. In terms of supported frequencies, there are currently three modifications of the OnePlus X: E1001 for mainland China, E1003 for the rest of Asia and the European region, and E1005 for North America. The most suitable modification for working in Russian LTE networks is the modification intended for sale in Europe, because it includes all four lanes used by our operators: B3, B7, B20 and B38. The review involves the Chinese version of the smartphone; it does not support the 20th band, but the other three bands are supported. On the Megafon network in St. Petersburg, OnePlus X finds LTE towers in most places and shows good results in Speedtest.

The device has two slots for nano SIM cards, one of them is combined with a slot for memory cards, so the user will have to choose: use two SIM cards or expand the internal memory. Among the wireless interfaces, the OnePlus X has Wi-Fi b/g/n, although it does not support the 5 GHz frequency, and there is no Bluetooth 4.0, NFC or IR port. The navigation chip can work with satellites of GPS, GLONASS and Chinese BeiDou systems.

Battery and autonomy

The OnePlus X has a non-removable battery with a capacity of 2525 mAh, a figure that is far from a record, but sufficient for the smartphone to survive until late at night with 4 hours of screen activity under average load. With the included charger, the battery is charged from 0% to 100% in 2 hours and 20 minutes (up to 75% in 1 hour and 30 minutes).

In typical operating modes, OnePlus X showed average results, and differences in operating time in certain modes are typical for a smartphone with an AMOLED screen:

Note. Testing is carried out in the appropriate modes according to the following method: – listening to music on headphones at maximum volume with the screen turned off; – viewing 1080p video from the device memory at 50% backlight brightness and maximum sound volume in headphones; – active browsing (constantly opening new tabs, actively scrolling pages, etc.) via Wi-Fi at 50% backlight brightness; – 3D games (Real Racing 3) at 50% backlight brightness.

Cameras, photo and video quality

The main camera in OnePlus X is a 13-megapixel ISOCELL sensor, covered by a lens with an F2.2 aperture and an equivalent focal length of ~28 mm. Unfortunately, specifications for the camera module could not be found, but, apparently, the matrix here is smaller than the one installed in OnePlus 2, it is 1/3.2″ in size or even smaller.

In daylight conditions, photographs are of average quality; if white balance and sharpness are more or less good, then a relatively small dynamic range and an abundance of digital noise often spoil the picture. CLICKABLE! On the left is OnePlus X, on the right is Apple iPhone 6 plus:

In addition to the main mode, the system camera has two more modes that are similar in purpose, but give different results: HDR and Clear Image. In both modes, the time it takes to save an image can be up to three seconds, and both modes tighten up the tones, expanding the dynamic range. In HDR mode, tones are compressed more aggressively, shadows are greatly tightened and color saturation is increased. In Clear Image mode, the compression of tones is more subtle, and the final photo looks natural. CLICKABLE! On the left is OnePlus X HDR, in the center is OnePlus X Clear Image, on the right is Apple iPhone 6 plus HDR:

In conditions of insufficient and/or artificial lighting, more noise is expected in the pictures; at the same time, the noise reduction works aggressively, which is why details and overall sharpness are lost. At the same time, the camera most often guesses right with white balance. CLICKABLE! On the left is OnePlus X, on the right is Apple iPhone 6 plus:

The panoramic shooting mode is not present in the system camera for show; OnePlus X can create panoramas with a resolution of up to 13 megapixels. Photopano glues perfectly and is preserved almost instantly, although, unfortunately, it turns out soapy. CLICKABLE! Top OnePlus X, bottom Apple iPhone 6 plus

The 8 megapixel front camera has a lens with an aperture of F2.4 and EGF = 26 mm. Can record video in FullHD resolution. Photos taken with the front camera turn out pretty good. CLICKABLE!

The smartphone records video in a maximum resolution of 1920*1080 pixels at 30 fps and with stereo sound. The footage comes out soapy, a little dirty and highly contrasting.

There is a four-times slow motion mode in 720p, the final footage has unstable fps, and there is no sound. There is an accelerated video shooting mode - the so-called timelapse, with a resolution of 1080p at 30 fps and without sound.

Sound quality

The device has one speakerphone, it is located at the bottom end, which prevents the call signal from being muffled in most situations. It plays quite cleanly and has a good volume reserve.

A large screen on a smartphone is good, but what if you want a smaller one? Even Apple released a new phone with top-end hardware, but a small display. On Android there is a whole zoo of different diagonals, choose to suit every taste.

Here it is, a small, beautiful and not terribly expensive phone. Not for 30-40 thousand rubles, but much cheaper. And this is OnePuls X, which I will talk about now.

Glass and metal

The smartphone pleased me with its appearance, there is a lot of glass and metal, the body is very thin. At the same time, it is weighty and moderately heavy, somewhat reminiscent of the iPhone 4, which was simply gorgeous in its time.

I looked at the OnePlus X and wondered what was stopping Apple from doing something similar, combining metal and glass again. I myself would be in the forefront for an iPhone with this design.

The smartphone is small, compact size is its trump card. Carry it anywhere, it's small and small, the perfect size for my taste. They have already begun to forget about such sizes; large screens are in fashion, although 3-4 years ago everything was different.

OnePlus X in black looks beautiful, but it gets very dirty, fingerprints are very noticeable on a dark background. 2.5D glass is also scratched; minor damage is clearly visible on the black surface under the light.

There is a notch along the metal frame along the body, a design “for beauty”, but dust from the pockets gets clogged in the slot. It would be better if the sides were made flat.

They say that OnePlus X also comes in white, this option should be more practical. In addition, the Chinese have released a ceramic version, but they ask for more money for it, no ice.

Slippery type

A glass smartphone easily slides off any uneven surface, so do not place it on the edge of a table, as it may fall. I myself was convinced of this several times, it’s good that there was a soft coating underneath, there were no marks left on the body. The kit includes a silicone transparent case, with it the smartphone no longer slips, but the feeling from it in the hand is no longer the same.

The lever on the side turns on silent mode, just like on iPhones. You can accuse the Chinese of plagiarism, or you can be happy that you have one more convenient phone. The lever has three positions: all sounds, vibration, favorites. There is not enough indication on the case, it is not clear which mode is selected.

Apple solved this issue with a bright stripe, but then they forgot about it. Also, the buttons under the screen are not backlit, which is a strange saving. If it’s inconvenient, you can enable on-screen buttons in the menu; they will take up some space on your desktop. But why then put the keys under the screen, besides, it’s inconvenient to press them.

Look and rejoice

The screen is good: 5 inches, 1920x1080 pixels, Super AMOLED. It is very bright and contrasting, the colors go into a cold range. Pictures with black flowers look very impressive.

If you start turning the phone in your hands and looking at the image from different sides, you will see how the image turns green; this is the norm for AMOLED. But if you don’t bother and don’t look for problems out of nowhere, then you’ll like the screen.

Need more light

The OnePlus X takes good pictures during the day in clear weather, but as soon as clouds appear in the sky, the quality of the photos deteriorates. Noise also creeps out indoors, sharpness suffers, and part of the photo comes out blurry. 13 megapixels are weak here, alas, video recording is also so-so.

old horse

In terms of hardware, this is a mid-level smartphone. Here is the Snapdragon 801, which took leading places in tests a couple of years ago. The old but top-end chip is still relevant if you compare the phone with its competitors in tests. There is enough RAM, there are 3 gigs, everything is as it should be.

Performance is above average, but the smartphone does not play games at maximum settings, but it does not overheat in this mode. The system was “strangled” at the software level so that the phone did not get hot from excess power. Android old version 5.1, Oxygen OS rolled on top of it. There are also versions with Hydrogen OS, oh, the variety of systems for Android.

The shell looks simple, there is no “garbage”, you even need to install the program for viewing pictures yourself. Connoisseurs of laconic design should like this design.

All sorts of things

You can insert two SIM cards or one SIM + microSD into your smartphone. There is not very much of its own memory, only 16 GB, of which about 9 are available. So the card will not be superfluous, you can put microSD here up to 128 GB inclusive.

The speaker is loud, it will be difficult to miss a call. The sound in the headphones is good, although now you have to try harder to find a phone for 20 thousand with poor audio.

Navigation works fine, you can find your position on the street in 15-20 seconds, everything is fine with LTE too. For some reason, its Wi-Fi is limited; the phone does not work with 5 GHz frequencies.

Charge more often

The battery is 2525 mAh, there is no fast charging function. If you use the phone actively (games, navigation, camera), it drains quickly, within 3 hours of continuous use.

If you just call, sometimes go online, and listen to the player in the mornings and evenings, then it takes one working day. Nothing special, typical results for a thin smartphone.

Opinion

OnePlus X costs about $250 on Chinese Internet sites; in Moscow you can buy it for 17-18 thousand rubles. The phone doesn't impress with the quality of camera images, it doesn't have the best battery life, it doesn't have NFC, a fingerprint scanner or fast charging, but I still liked it.

It is small, thin and light, here the characteristics fade into the background. OnePlus X can be taken when you are tired of running benchmarks and chasing features. Design matters, this is a beautiful phone where everything else is secondary.

Alternatives

Samsung Galaxy A3(2016) will cost 21,000 rubles. Its hardware is weak, but the smartphone is beautiful: there is also glass and metal, and a famous brand, in addition. After all, no one has heard of OnePlus except geeks.

Xiaomi Mi4c They are not officially importing it to us yet; if you wish, you can buy it in Moscow for 16-18 thousand. A good camera, autonomy, small size and weight, also an interesting option for purchase.

Nexus 5X It costs around 25 thousand, but they bring it to us officially and with a guarantee, unlike the “Chinese”. It's not as beautiful as the OnePlus X, but it has the latest version of Android, a fingerprint scanner, and one of the best cameras in a smartphone.

Hello everyone, in this article we will talk about a smartphone created by oneplus: oneplus x. This is not another “flagship killer,” as one might assume based on the history of previous models of the Chinese brand.

The company decided to temporarily take a break from producing top-end smartphones and introduced a device with average characteristics to the market. Quite a surprising move, given that the OnePlus brand is perceived by many as exclusive.

OnePlus flagships always have powerful mobile processors, maximum RAM, and high-quality cameras. However, in the case of OnePlus X, the company did not have the task of creating the most powerful smartphone, so it used a slightly outdated, but still quite powerful Snapdragon 801 processor, and the amount of RAM was limited to 3GB. However, such a tandem allows you to count on smooth and fast operation.

The main efforts were aimed at developing a spectacular case, and OnePlus designers have achieved some success in this. Glass panels, a metal frame and even ceramics (but only in the exclusive version for the American market) create the impression that this is a much more expensive device. The picture is complemented by a high-quality display. The smartphone is available in two colors – white and black.

There are no exclusive features in the phone, but this is understandable. After all, we are talking about a mid-price smartphone. Such a smartphone should provide a comfortable level of performance, take good photographs and have an attractive appearance.

Housing materials and dimensions

We already briefly mentioned the case materials at the beginning of the review. The back and front panels are completely covered with 2.5D Gorilla Glass 3, which provides relatively good protection. The glass is durable and can survive more than one fall without visible consequences.

However, glass is inferior in strength to metal, so you shouldn’t deliberately throw the phone onto a hard surface. Side frames are metal. A model with ceramic frames is available for the American market, but finding one on sale will not be easy.

Interestingly, although the smartphone fits well in your hand and does not slip, it can slip off from a surface located at a slight angle. Glass, and even one that is rounded around the perimeter, turns out to be slippery.

The dimensions of the device are 140x69x6.9 mm. The device is convenient to use; with such a size, ergonomics do not suffer at all. With the fingers of one hand you can easily reach any point on the 5-inch screen.

By the way, the glass body turned out to be resistant to fingerprints. You don't have to wipe its surface every minute.

Build quality

A common problem with many mid-price smartphones is mediocre build quality. This is especially true for Chinese models, however, A-brands sometimes make mistakes. To OnePlus's credit, the affordable Oneplus X is well-built.

All panels and elements are tightly fitted to each other. The same assembly lines were probably used as for more expensive flagships. Quality control in the company is clearly maintained at a high level, and this is encouraging.

Positioning

In the mid-price segment, Oneplus X has to compete with a huge number of smartphones. And it cannot be said that the device will not have advantages in this competition, but it will not become a sales leader.

There is nothing in it that other market participants have not offered or will not offer in the near future. The glass case looks impressive, but this is not know-how. The internal filling allows you to count on fast operation, but this is not a flagship model. There are no exclusive features in OnePlus X. Yes, the model attracts with its affordable price and high-quality assembly. It is likely that these two factors will help it stand out from its competitors.

OnePlus isn't positioning the 1+X as a flagship killer (and that would be stupid). Perhaps an inexpensive smartphone is a kind of breakthrough for the Chinese brand. If sales reach a certain level, we can expect other affordable models to appear.

Equipment, appearance and design of the device

The kit includes:

• Smartphone
• Charger
• USB cable
• SIM card tray clip
• Case
• Documentation

The appearance of the smartphone can hardly be called recognizable. A good dozen (if not more) devices from other manufacturers have a similar design. The thin rectangular body with rounded edges does not stand out in any way. The only way to recognize that this is a OnePlus device is by the logo printed on the back panel.

However, the ordinary design does not mean that the smartphone looks gray and unattractive. This is wrong. The glass panels look impressive, so even when turned off the phone attracts attention.

Controls

The control layout used in 1+X is different compared to the flagship models, and quite significantly. The smartphone does not have a fingerprint scanner, and either a PIN code or a pattern key is available for unlocking.

The left side contains only a switch for sound profiles. On the right side there is a power button, keys for adjusting the volume level, and a tray for SIM cards/memory cards.

Above the screen there is a front camera and a sensor for missed events. At the top end there is a 3.5 mm jack for connecting headphones. The bottom end contains a microUSB connector and a speaker. Below the screen you can see three touch keys without backlight.

At the back is the main camera and flash. The back panel is completely flat, the main camera module does not protrude above its surface.

Technical characteristics of the device

Main characteristics of 1+X (x 1003):

• Release date 10/29/2015
• Android 5.1.1
• Display type AMOLED
• Screen size 5 inches, 1920×1080
• Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 platform with Adreno 330 GPU
• 3/16 GB memory
• Battery Li-Pol 2525 mAh
• Front camera 8 MP, f/2.4
• Main camera 13 MP, f/2.2, Full HD video
• Noise reduction system
• WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, USB 2.0
• GPS, GLONASS
• Weight 138 g

RAM and processor

For the European and American markets, OnePlus releases models with 3 GB of RAM. A version with 2 GB of RAM is sold in the domestic Chinese market. When ordering a smartphone in Chinese online stores, pay attention to this parameter.

Today, 3 GB of RAM is enough for comfortable work on Android. As for the processor, Van Plus X is equipped with Snapdragon 801.

This is far from the most powerful processor, its days of youth have already passed, but it is still capable of providing a sufficient level of performance. Its capabilities have been well studied, it has gotten rid of childhood problems (for example, overheating) and remains more powerful in comparison with, for example, the new Snapdragon 41x.

Probably, OnePlus simply did not want to overpay for a more modern platform, but in this case the decision seems justified.

Wireless interfaces

But the set of wireless interfaces, alas, cannot be called redundant and modern. Firstly, there is no NFC, so using a smartphone for contactless payment will not work. Secondly, the Wi-Fi module is single-band and supports only b/g/n protocols. Thirdly, Bluetooth version 4.0 deprives the user of many opportunities when working with wireless devices.

But there is a radio (older models do not support FM radio).

Communication capabilities

The smartphone is capable of operating in 2G/3G/4G networks, there is support for LTE networks. You can use two nanoSIM cards at the same time.

Call quality

There were no problems with call quality. The device communicates well, the interlocutor's voice is clear during a conversation.

The noise reduction system works at C grade. The presence of two microphones on the body does not guarantee that all unnecessary noise will be eliminated. However, in most cases, the interlocutors did not complain about the quality of speech transmission.

Operating system and software

Van Plus X runs Android 5 1 1 OS, on top of which the OxygenOS shell is installed. Upgrade to Android 6.0 available. Versions for the Chinese market may have the H2OS shell installed, which lacks Google services and PlayMarket support. You can reflash your smartphone, but it is better to immediately purchase the international version and not experience any problems in the future.

Interface and functionality

The Oxygen OS shell is known for its high speed. The interface is really fast and smooth. The advantage of the shell is the fact that it does not make significant changes to stock Android. You don't have to delete strange Chinese apps from your phone. By default, only Google programs are installed.

The functionality is typical for Android 5 1 1. OxygenOS adds only a few additional settings.

Performance tests

In performance tests, OnePlus X does not break records, inferior to the flagship Oneplus Two. The indicators are average, however, the same as other smartphones in this price range. In real life, you are unlikely to experience a lack of power or a lack of RAM. The phone is fast.

Memory and memory card

The amount of built-in memory cannot be called large - the 1+X has only 16 GB of memory, part of which is occupied by the operating system. Fortunately, there is support for Micro SD cards, but if you decide to install a card, you will have to give up one of the two SIM cards, since they share a common combo tray.

Screen

The AMOLED display leaves a pleasant impression, although this is far from the newest model. However, the color rendition is correct, the oleophobic coating is of high quality, and the viewing angles are maximum. In addition, AMOLED matrices consume less energy compared to IPS screens.

The screen is protected by 2.5D Gorilla Glass 3. There is a sensor for automatically adjusting the backlight level, and it works correctly. Perhaps the maximum brightness is a little lacking, but even in bright sunlight, the information on the display remains readable.

Display diagonal and resolution

The screen resolution is 1920×1080, the diagonal size is 5 inches.

Cameras

Cameras are not 1+X's strong point. This does not mean that the pictures are of poor quality, but there are smartphones on the market that take better pictures.

The front camera is nothing special. The 8 MP matrix without autofocus is suitable for selfies, you can’t expect anything more from it.

The main camera is equipped with a 13 MP module with autofocus and flash. During the day it allows you to get good photos, but at night the photo quality drops noticeably. There is no optical stabilization.

Video recording is possible in Full HD resolution.

Sample photos

Test photos allow you to evaluate the shooting quality of OnePlus X.

Multimedia

In terms of multimedia, 1+X does not stand out in anything special. The sound in the headphones lacks purity and power, although most Chinese phones cope with playing music even worse. An undemanding user will like the sound of Van Plus Isk, but the difference with flagships is noticeable.

Connection is made via a 3.5 mm jack.

There is only one speaker, so you won't be able to get stereo mode. It's good for hands-free calls, but not so good for playing music.

The use of Bluetooth 4.0 somewhat limits the possibilities for using wireless headphones. There are no sound enhancement technologies, and you won’t be able to connect two pairs of headphones at the same time.

The number of codecs and formats supported by the device can be expanded by installing additional applications.

Battery and charging

Unfortunately, the smartphone does not come with a fast charger (and the technology itself is not supported). Full charging time is about two hours. This is not much, although OP flagships charge faster thanks to Dash Charge technology.

Battery type and capacity

The smartphone has a 2525 mAh li-pol battery.

Battery life

The phone holds up confidently all day long with active use of the browser, mail, instant messengers, playing videos, and working with navigation. If you use it only for calls and periodic viewing of mail/browser, you can count on one and a half to two days of work.

Price and Availability

At the time of release, OnePlus X cost about $300. Initially they planned to sell it through a ticket system, but this idea was quickly abandoned. The model is still available for sale, but is gradually leaving the scene. The Chinese manufacturer has not yet presented a replacement for it.

Impressions and conclusions

Before us is a strong mid-ranger, offering a level of performance sufficient for any everyday tasks and good autonomy. High-quality assembly and the use of expensive materials make it stand out from many Chinese phones.

The model is not able to compete with flagships; it is very far from the level of the iPhone X or Google Pixel 2 xl, but the phone looks confident in its niche.

pros

High quality build
Use of glass and metal in the body
Sufficient level of performance
3GB RAM
High quality screen
Autonomy
Affordable price

What I didn't like

1. The flat bright red “noodle” charging cord was destroyed by a cat 15 minutes after unpacking the phone, be careful not to leave the cord close to cats alone.
2. Small amount of internal memory 16 GB for the beginning of 2016 - this is the last century

What I liked

Size, appearance, case materials, ideal Oxygen OS firmware (almost stock, with small but very convenient features) - Nexus lovers will appreciate it. Everything flies, cool dark theme.

What I didn't like

The only drawback worth mentioning is the camera. It's no good at all... And the next firmware most likely won't fix it.

What I liked

Screen, appearance, quite powerful

What I didn't like

What I liked

Design, performance

What I didn't like

1. Lack of a fingerprint scanner. A very convenient thing that is perfectly implemented on iOS. It simultaneously protects the phone from thieves and simplifies working with it (it's faster and more convenient than entering a password).

What I liked

I switched to it from an iPhone 5S, so I will compare it with it. I took version E1001.1. 3 gigs of RAM. One of the cheapest smartphones with this amount of memory. 2. At the same time, for such a price you get very high-quality assembly and well-fitted materials. The phone is tactilely amazing, the iPhone is at rest. 3. 2 SIM cards, or SIM + memory card. Again, very convenient after the iPhone, where the standard memory was not expandable. 4. The display is very good. Someone here wrote that there are no options for adjusting the display by saturation and other characteristics (as in Samsung and Meizu, for example), this is true, but even without this the picture quality is very good. 5. Display diagonal – 5 inches. It fits very comfortably in the hand. This is a huge plus, because I didn’t want to take a shovel (5.5 inches) a priori. 6. Gestures. 2 taps on the locked screen turn it on. If you draw a daw, the flashlight lights up, etc. Very convenient, there was no trace of this on iOS. 7. Battery. It seems that 2525 mAh is not so much, but the phone lasts for 1-1.5 days of operation. This is about an hour of calls, an hour of correspondence on social media. networks, 20 minutes of working with mail, viewing photos, videos, etc. A total of 4.5-5 hours of screen operation. By the way, screens of this type do not consume energy when they display black color, i.e. You can install a black theme on your phone, which is the default, and black themes in applications where possible and the battery will last even longer. 8. Transparent silicone case included with the phone + already pasted film from the box.

What I didn't like

The second SIM card is inserted instead of the memory card.
The edges of the display glass are rounded, the protective glass does not adhere well.

What I liked

The display is gorgeous. Very smart. The design is your own, not copied. Transparent silicone bumper included.

What I didn't like

Not found!

What I liked

A VERY solid 5 for the design!!! Everything works very quickly on it. Almost naked Android!

What I didn't like

The battery is rather weak, you could sacrifice the thickness of the phone in its favor, but in general it’s enough for a day if you don’t play with heavy toys. The Chinese assembly 1001 is widespread, on which YouTube version 5 was installed and was not updated; I had to tinker with the root. Firmware 2.2.0 is a bit damp, there are a couple of minor flaws. Since the company is new, covers, etc. are more difficult to find. The camera could be better, but it is quite suitable for my needs.

What I liked

Design, filling, display, price, build quality.

What I didn't like

1. Sometimes when the network is lost for a long time, the radio module searches for a network for a very long time. (I hope they fix it).

What I liked

1. Speed ​​of work. 2. Build quality. 3. Design. 4. Operation of the GPS module. 5. Availability of LTE. 6. Exclusivity.

What I didn't like

The battery in general is okay, but I would like more, they swear a lot about the camera, but a 13MP with a Sony matrix takes good pictures, but not like 21 on Sony flagships, there is no backlight for the home and back buttons, the most unpleasant thing is when changing the data transfer type from lte to 3g, strange lags and freezes begin until the device is rebooted.

What I liked

Design, materials and build quality, powerful hardware, OOS, display ppi density, front camera

What I didn't like

Horrible! The display is simply HORRIBLE in color saturation! This is some kind of crazy, exaggerated Amoled, on which you won’t see natural colors at all! One acid! For example, the Sberbank Online application icon, instead of a pleasant green one, looks poisonous and (like not everything else) is difficult to look at. My eyes get tired, not a single picture pleases me. THERE IS NO ADJUSTMENT for the warmth of light or color saturation! People's faces are orange-colored (while the same photos look quite natural on other devices).

What I liked

1. LTE 2. Memory card slot 3. Design, build quality, body materials - in this it is impeccable. The phone is beautiful, glass on both sides, metal on the side like gold, thin, fits amazingly in the hand. For the first time in my life, I came to the conclusion that the Chinese have surpassed Apple in smartphone design. I took the white color, fingerprints are completely invisible behind the rear glass.

H quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor, 3072 MB of RAM, and Adreno 330 graphics accelerator - good hardware characteristics! Yes, clock frequencies are slightly reduced relative to the parameters recommended by Qualcomm; Yes, the processor does not support 64-bit computing, which has been so fashionable lately. But these facts are not felt during operation - the phone is fast and convenient. Its capabilities are more than enough for both the operating system (Oxygen OS 2.1.3, essentially a modified Andoid 5.1) and for all games available on Google Play.

It's nice to note that performance remains stable at any case temperature and at any battery charge level. Not all commercially available devices can boast of this.

The built-in flash memory, its nominal capacity is 16 GB, is fast enough, but does not leave much space for the user’s own files. The standard expansion slot officially supports micro-SD cards up to 128 GB in size, but, alas, provides very mediocre data transfer speeds: our high-speed test cardToshiba Exceria SD-CX32UHS1 showed only 18 MB per second when reading and 12 MB per second when writing sequentially, although these figures are usually several times higher.
