My thoughts are, as long as it doesn't burn out the LTE antenna, $199 is a BARGAIN.
Just got the Asus PadFone x mini. Not bad phone tablet combo performance is decent everyday use notice little lag not bad. Lacks storage but I have 32Gb ad card not issue for me only 8 gig 3 our available. A ton bloatware. I could take it off but doesn't really bother me. The tablet 720 screen looks good. 200 it's nice combo. I had few phones this year. I trade and sell a lot. Not flagship phone on par with moto g.
i this got this phone/tablet has well this is replaceing my window phone
Got it love it
Got it. Love it. Would love it more with root. Since Kitkat 4.4.2 release it makes external micro sd cards useless with 3rd party apps. I could use the extra space. With root + sd card fix app we could revive use of the micro sd card. This is a great phone/tablet combo. Only $200? Wow what a deal. Add root and this baby is a steal deal. :victory:
It's decent coming from a lg flex it's a lot slower it lags a lot and whenever I do multi task it freezes and go back to home page.....once rooted we can crack up the CPU and then this would be beast

I have a friend who owns a DG800. He seems pretty happy with it, so I was considering getting a Doogee for myself. My choice would be this one if the price is right, how much should one pay for a phone like this once it comes out? Does anyone have experience with this brand?
Found it on a german forum.
DOOGEE’s 2015 Flagship F3 will come in 1GB to 4GB of RAM versions.
Doogee’s new high-end phone will come in during the first half of 2015, an will boast some really nice specifications MT6753 64bit, a Full HD 5 inch 2.5D display, 1GB, 2GB or even up to 4GB of RAM, there is even the possibility of a 3150mAh battery, and of course is a 4G phone. Internally, the phone will have at least 16GB of ROM.
But what catches most the eye about this phone is the design, with a really stylist metal frame and Gorilla glass in the back and front in the standard version and wood or bamboo as an option for the back.
Basic spec:
Screen: 5.0 inch, 2.5D curved glass, 1mm bezel
Resolution: could be FHD,1080P
Battery: could be 3150mAh
Camera: front 8.0mp OV, rear 13.0MP SONY IMX214 or Samsung Icosell
CPU: MT6753 LTE SoC64bit octa Cortex-A53 1.5Ghz
GPU: ARM Mali-T760
Colors: Deep Blue, White Pearl.
System: Android Lollipop 5.1, Ubuntu (still not confirmed)
Phone memory is too small, not worth buying.
I have searched for some budget phone to use it as a replacement or better say additional phone. Doogee was my first choice, but then MLAIS M9 have caught my eye. I did my research and this are my findings
Mlais is well known company in China, in the past oriented only to domestic market and they have started expansion to foreign markets with this phone. Let’s talk a bit about phone
First thing that I like is that this phone have underpowered MTK 6592M processor clocked at 1,4 GHz with Mali 450 MP graphic processor. Why I like underpowered chipset? My answer is the question again: why we need super-fast processor? As a heater? Let’s answer: we don’t need something super-fast, super heating, just something that will do the job with less power used and longer battery life.
M9 have very good size for my hand, anything bigger than 5” LCD is too big for me. Also QHD resolution is a good choice if you ask me. Still decent density with good battery life, together with OGS and IPS technology it is a winner. On top of that underpowered processor is not struggling with this resolution. Talking about size, phone itself it is very thin, as advertised 7.5 mm. I will not forget to mention that Mlais added Gorilla Glass to this phone which is great (I hate screen protectors)
Memory is downside of this phone. RAM is limited to 1GB and internal memory should be 8 GB. I doubt this is available due to system and data partition, but at least 5 GB should be available. Usually MTK 6592 support 32BG expansion memory card out of the box, but from my previous experience 64GB card can be used. This will resolve small internal memory.
I think that cameras in this price tag are overrated, I don’t think that rear camera is more than 5 MPx, front maybe 2 MPx. With this mentioned I don’t expect much from this phone photography features, sometimes some day photos and that is that.
Battery is 2100 mA. This should be enough for 5” screen, specially if we think that this phone have QHD resolution. I’m surprised how Mlais engineers managed to fit so big battery into very slim phone.
I think that I have put all my thoughts about Mlais M9 into this email. Main problem that I see with this phone is poor support, but that can be changed. If I get this phone I will keep this thread live with firmwares and recoveries updated.
Could you please share your thoughts on this phone, or better if you have one your findings.
I'm going to do a review on this phone soon... i just received it. Deciding which forum to post it in though :/
Things missing in NOTE 7
Everyone wants -
Battery 4500 mAh
Ram 6 GB
C type with Usb 3.1
I would like them to Add -
Bluethooth in Pen so can click picks with it like a remote
Add what you feel is missing
1) Bigger screen
2) Bigger screen
3) Bigger screen
We have been stuck at 5.7" since Note 3, could easily have been up to 6" by now.
Crikey Nexus 6 which came out alongside Note 4 had a 6" screen.
I still have the Note 4 and will be looking at other makes for a 6 inch+ QHD screened phone even if it comes at the expense of loosing the SD card.
Flat scratch proof screen as Moto Z - I don't buy the Edge concept - .
Though body
IR Blaster
6GB Ram
Snapdragon 830-821-823 faster cpu for a more bloated phone.
New UFS Micro SD std instead just uhs (a big miss considering precisely Samsung just introduced the first UFS micro sd to the market) .
I rally don't care about 3.5mm audio jack I'll prefer am bigger battery instead, 4000mah to be happy.

Who's everyone? Until the tech changes bigger batteries = bigger devices. It's been more than proven people want trimmer and lighter phones. The Note7's waterproof, smaller than the Note5, and has a bigger battery than the Note5 all squeezed in to less space than the S7 Edge because of the silo to accommodate the S Pen. Based on the way Android manages memory, what's the extra 2GB of RAM going to do? The OnePlus 3 has 6GB of RAM and users have a choice of more background apps open and ****ty battery life or vice versa. USB-C and/or 3.1 is a benefit only to those still using cables. The only time I use a cable anymore is to connect my phone to my car because it's an Android Auto requirement; but that's just me. Point is "everyone" wants something different and the 99% of people that buy phones and aren't on XDA don't care about the same things we do or value them differently.
6inch screen
Front firing stereo speakers.
For myself, give me those and the device is perfect.

Front firing stereo speakers would have been awesome

I've had the Nwxus 6 for a while now, and while I miss the S-Pen from my Note 2 and 3, it would be very difficult to move to a smaller screen and speaker(s) that are not front-facing.
And if this Note 7 is locked down like the Note 4 (reason why I stopped buying Samsung in the first place), then I'll have to pass on this one as well.

Bigger batteries = bigger devices? I am curious where do you come up with these conclusions lol? How about S7 Edge smaller device with bigger battery? Just throwing an example out there.

S7 Edge doesn't need to make space for the silo to hold the S pen

Not really unless I'm missing something. The Note7's waterproof, has a larger display, and a silo for the S Pen and the same size battery. Yet it's shorter and narrower and only .9mm thicker and 6g heavier than the Moto Z Force. Kind of points to Samsung being a master of packaging.
Moto Z = 153.3 x 75.3 x 5.2 mm (6.04 x 2.96 x 0.20 in), 136 g (4.80 oz), 5.5" display, 2,600 mAh battery
Moto Z Force = 155.9 x 75.8 x 7 mm (6.14 x 2.98 x 0.28 in), 163 g (5.75 oz), 5.5" display, 3,500 mAh battery
Note7 = 153.5 x 73.9 x 7.9 mm (6.04 x 2.91 x 0.31 in), 169 g (5.96 oz), 5.7" display, 3,500 mAh battery

Alright then it looks like Samsung will always have a bright future because their user base is easily satisfied with ridiculous "upgrades".

It's all about trade-offs. My bank is one that's signed on for Samsung Pass so I can use the Iris Scanner for banking. That's pretty cool (to me) and it's a smartphone first. Between the Note5 and Note7 I've lost nothing. I've gained waterproofing, a bigger battery, a better camera, a slimmer design, external storage, an iris scanner, a faster more efficient CPU/GPU, more S Pen tools, a curved screen, and an updated UI. It's also the first Samsung device to support USB-C but I'm 95% wireless so that's not a big get for me. I've had every Note since the Note II and over time I've lost external storage, replaceable batteries, FM radio, and an IR blaster. When you add it all up I've gotten far more than I've lost which is why I stick with Samsung.
I get through the day on my Note5 so with the efficiencies of S-820 and the 500 mAh larger battery I'll be better off with the Note7. A bigger battery, at least using today's tech, means a bigger phone. If asked, I'd prefer a smaller footprint over a larger battery. Others may differ. Samsung pulled SD cards last year and brought them back. They obviously misjudged the market when they made that decision. They reversed it this year and S7 sales climbed in a down and saturated market. The S7 Edge with its 3,600 mAh battery accounts for over 50% of all S7-series sales. So people seem OK with that combination of size and battery capacity. The Note7's 3,500 mAh battery is about 2.5% smaller. That's pretty inconsequential because if you go below 5% on either phone they're going to fail over to power save mode and you won't be able to see the screen anyway. If battery size (2,915 mAh on the iPhone 6S+) was such a big deal people wouldn't be buying massive quantities of iPhones which don't even support quick charging 3 years after it was introduced and wireless charging two years later. Apple's about to pull the headphone jack on the iP7. It's a consumer unfriendly move but do you think people will stop buying iPhones because of it?
People want different things and OEMs like Samsung shoot for the middle. Sometimes they fail like with the removal of external storage. Sometimes they win by bringing it back and re-introducing waterproofing. (S7). There's an old adage, "you can't please all the people all the time."

Coming from the S7E the N7 doesn't seem impressive at all to me. I guess if I was coming from the N5 then I would have been impressed. As I said, I get the feeling that these Android companies are holding back on purpose. I wish I could stand iOS, I would have moved to the iPhone 6S Plus in a heartbeat.

Samsung aren't targeting people who upgraded 6 months ago to the S7, their primary target are majority of ordinary users on a 24 month upgrade cycle (from the Note 4), and enthusiasts who may upgrade from the Note 5, and for both groups I think the Note 7 represents a decent all round upgrade.
In terms of my wishlist, I would have preferred a larger battery even if it meant a thicker chassis.
