Hello,
My friend, please stay away from HDC, they are really nice looking clones but their hardware and quality is the worst!
I have the HDC s4 Legend, HDC s4 Spark, and the Note 3, they all are perfect and exact 1:1 replica clones visually, they even come with the samsung logo in and accept all samsung accesories which is a nice touch. BUT hear this:
They lie in ALL their product specs, i mean ALL.
First, i bought the HDC S4 and they promised a exynos processor, it was really a mtk6589 with the hardware hacked to show as an exynos. battery life lasted like 4 hours at most.
Then i bought the HDC s4 LEgend, very beautiful phone, lighter than the original, BUT they advertised it with WCDMA 850,1900 and 2100, and it only had 2100 so no 3G in North-South america, they also advertised it with 2gb ram and it only had 1gb. 16 gb rom and it only had 3gb, and 2600 mah battery and it only had 1,500mah. so i just bought another brick, and gave it to my son to play games.
With the note i bought it as a gift and had the same issue, bad battery etc, so i had to buy original batteries that fixed the battery issue, 3g worked this time, but screen was horrible,
Besides, after showing them evidence that their WCDMA bands were incorrect, they denied it, battery were incorrect, they denied it, CPU RAM , ETC they denied it all, never wanted to make warranty valid, so i lost a good 350 usd in brick phones.
Please save yourself from buying that crap, or buy it at your own risk if you really want a Galaxy clone, these phones (s6) have really poor specs, mtk6582 and 1gb ram (they advertise 2gb) with poor battery life, that's not even mid range by 2015 that's low range, so i really recomend buying other brands, from other reliable sellers, with a hell lot of better specs and hardware for just 20 usd difference in price range.
i Recomend, Elephone p7000, any other THL phone, those have an amazing quality, i just bought a Kingzone z1, and that phone is a beast.
so stay away from HDC and buy from honest sellers who advertise the REAL sspecs like, antelife.
Regards
Hey... thanks my friend. Very helpfull post.
Hi Guys,
I come from a 32GB/3GB RAM, D855 LG G3 in Gold + 64GB Extreme Pro SD. I had my LG G3 since July 2014. My LG G3 toasted last week beyond repair, so Amazon refunded me $700 that was the price i paid for it. I'm currently in the search for a new smartphone as, i am currently cellphone-less. Thinking about the options available on market, even if i'm in an emergency and need to get hold of a new phone asap... i think i can hold on until August 13th to be sure what Samsung is going to come out with the Galaxy S6 Edge + and Note 5.
Currently i'm in search of a new 64GB or 128GB storage phone.
My contenders are:
Galaxy S6 Edge 64GB or 128GB (if i can stretch the money) Emerald Green --- Second option: Platinum Gold.
Galaxy S6 Edge + 64GB.
Galaxy Note 5 64GB .
Motorola X Pure Edition 64GB + Customs backs of the Moto Maker.
I'm not interested in the LG G4, as i just come from a G3 and want something with a more premium build and the G4 is not enough for me. Between these options what would you think it's best?? Per the news it seems the Note 5 would be lacking, - nothing new. The Edge + has my attention, but at least i would need to go 64GB or more if i grab any internal storage phone. Motorola X Pure Edition seems like the most sensible choice, but i like the design more of a Gold or Green Galaxy Edge. I'm willing to go up to $900 for my new cell phone as i just have been refunded $700 for my dead G3. More than $900 would be crazy, still $900 is quite steep.
What others phone should i consider if i'm looking for top specs and new devices?
I prefer devices with SD cards, but it is not a deal breaker. I never had a device with internal storage only. So this... scares me that i may run out of 64GB easily. 32GB i know is not enough for me. 64GB could work but i had more space on my old LG G3. 128GB would be ideal but the prices are $$$$. So out of internal storage Samsung's as of today... maybe the 64GB would be the happier medium.
Please guys, some comments would be nice as always more heads think better than one. If i get a Samsung, i want it to be the edge as i'm a girl... and love the looks of it better than the regular S6.., Green is my 1st option but it is the most expensive, i'm between Green and the Platinum Gold ... out of there, i wont even consider the other colors because those are the one's that i like.
I had a Notes, Galaxy, do not have a problem with phablets or big phones as well as smaller ones. I just need a phone ASAP- and since i have a considerable credit, i want to get a nice one.
Thanks
Flip a coin dude & best of luck
answer is easy enough : " read slowly smartphones names, and make the choice according to your own emotions ( what sounds fitting right with you ) "
Example : " S6 Edge " = " S Sex eGee " = " is sex and G " = " Essex and G " = " S X and G " = " is X and G " and so on....
Example 2 " iPhone 3gs " = " fan of I and fridges " = " i FOne 3gs " = " i F1 fridges " etc etc.....
there is nothing really wrong in smartphones you mentioned, it's all about making the impulse purchase.
i have all iPhone 3gs, LG G3 D855, and S6 Edge, what i miss the most is iOS 3 or 4.

Because every Motorola phone I have ever owned has hard bricked do to no fault of my own, I would advise against the new Moto x. The s6 edge plus is an overpriced s6 edge with an inferior processor if all leaks are correct. You cannot go wrong with the s6 edge. Sexiest phone on the market. But the note 5 sounds like the only phablet I would ever dream of. If productivity is your purpose go with that. Otherwise choose what I chose, the galaxy s6 edge.

How is inferior the processor of the edge + in comparison of the s6 edge? I thought one was an exynos 7420 and the one on the edge + was to be believed an exynos 7422. I'm just holding to see if any of the newer devices could sport an SD card even if rumors have said that the Note 5 and edge+ could come sans SD.
Thanks for the motorola. I didn't know that about moto. Has anyone had bad experienced with Moto too?
I'm just holding on to see if Edge + or Note 5 could come with an SD card slot by some miracle. And also for the price drop on the galaxy edges on Amazon.
I have had my Galaxy S6 Edge 64gb in Galaxy Black for a few months now.
I keep a (small by audiophile standards) music library in storage, and several audiobooks.
A multitude of games, and other misc apps.
and my memory is still sufficient.
As long as you aren't the hoarder type, internal memory isin't a huge issue
Go well sir, and buy with your brain.
weigh up the features, and what you want, then calculate the costs.
S6 edge is by far one of the best built phones available. Looks stand out and premium. Camera fantastic.
However battery life is awful and ovepriced.
Screen not big enough.

I heard that the s6 edge plus has the snapdragon 808 while the note 5 will either have the exynos 7422 or 7420. They will both lack an sd card.. As for Moto, it may just be bad luck for me but due to my experiences. I would not recommend that
I went in and bought in early August the Green S6 Edge 64GB. Got the Wireless charging pad in black + 2 Spigen Neo Hybrid cases (Crystal Clear + Neo Hybrid in Gunmetal) + Caseology Case + Amfilm screen protectors + PS4 Magma Red controller (Yes to play games). Hehe i went all in!!!! I've been loving it, sometimes i thought if i held for the Note 5 but..... 64GB Note 5 are still around $900. I am very glad i went with the 64GB version as i already filled it half. I love my purchase and my Emerald Green S6 Edge, it was the color i wanted! and even looks more pretty than the Gold imho.
Hi! Do you have any physical preferences such as screen size, curved screen or not, and are you interested in flashing custom ROMS, kernels, mods ,etc. ?
I have had a Note 3 SE for a while and the screen got internally damaged, since I was told there isn't replacement panel for sale I need a new phone, is it still a good buy to get a new one, since the normal version isn't available and IDK how much progress was done on making custom Roms compatible, this is usually a problem for me but I'm not sure if there's another option in the same price points and specs... and I game a lot so the difference between the 650 and the lesser variations is big
what do you guys think
Very good development, better gaming performance than rn4. Best for the bucks. Go for it again.
*Just bought my kenzo 2 weeks ago

If custom roms are important for you, then it's a good choice. But if you want the best specs for the money, then there's a discount from time to time on gearbest for Zuk Z2. It gets then to around 180usd.
Sent from Note 3, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3.
If you can wait a little, the Note 4 SE is already in pre-sale and will be available on the 8th of March.
It features a Snapdragon 625 (a little slower than Note 3 SE but better battery life) and LTE band 20.
You can find it on Honorbuy for 205 Euro, it will be shipped from the warehouse in Italy, so no additional taxes if you life in the EU.
i bought it recently... but it's perfect. of course the 4x is better in battery life but it's a young device, no roms etc.
but hey it does have 20/25% more battery life.....

625 has weaker GPU, which doesn't set well with me...
I've been looking at a few spec lists and a few have listed a dual SIM option but can't confirm. Will the version available in the US have dual-SIM?
Small feature but really convenient when traveling abroad.

None of the U.S. carriers that I know of will be selling a dual-SIM variant. If you want that you will probably have to order online from another country. And only two models will have the official LG bootloader unlock, that's the "unlocked carrier" U.S. and European models. So, you will probably give forgo that bootloader unlock option if you get dual SIM variant.
According to the page below, there's a european model with Dual SIM. Not sure if it will be unlocked though (unsure if all european models will be):

V30 H930 will be the European carrier unlocked model, as far as I know. Any letters after the "H930" mean a country or carrier variant, not the "carrier unlocked".
Id be interested to know if it is Dual Sim + Dedicated SD card, or is another very annoying Hybrid sim system. (GSM Arena seems to say its a dedicated SD but no review i have read so far mention this).
Happy to look to the India/SE Asia models if they are offering such a spec?
Spoke to carphone warehouse today, who are exclusive provider in UK. The rep said they will have the h930 variety, which will be unlocked for all carriers either on contract or sim free. He said that h930 version doesn't have dual sim. Judging by that tech walls post only the 128gb plus variety will have a dual sim h930ds.
Shame I really wanted a dual sim phone that isnt a Samsung or op5

The closest option to the V30 with dual-SIM, I would say is the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2. It isn't IP68, doesn't have a quad-DAC, but it does have more RAM, is dual-SIM, and is about the same size. The screen on the Mi Mix 2 though is full HD instead of QHD though but that will mean longer battery life for the Mi Mix 2 each day.

So which part of it is close to the V30? Screen is actually Full HD+ , meaning 1080 X 2160, which again is nothing like the V30

Close as in, similar size, but both have their positives and negatives. Better battery life with a lower resolution and vice versa. There is nothing wrong with a 1080 X 2160 screen on a 6" screen phone when using a decent screen.

It's about the same size. As are a lot of phones. That's the only similarity.
QHD (1440p) vs 1080p is a HUGE difference to have a premium (top tier) phone. I've had QHD since 2014 with my 5.2" 1440p AMOLED Moto XT1225, and I've had Qi wireless charging since 2013 (with LG Nexus 5 and then the Moto XT1225). I'm NEVER downgrading specs, I'm going to keep the same or upgrade. If a phone doesn't have at least 1440p (especially on a 6" display) or Qi wireless charging I'm not buying it.
Since 2014, all major OEMs (Samsung, LG, Motorola, Sony, HTC) have gone to 1440p (or higher with Sony) for their flagship phones. Even ZTE with the excellent ZTE Axon 7 last year had 1440p AMOLED. If you can't go past 1080p, I don't consider you a major manufacturer. That's why I say OnePlus is a pretender.
As for battery, OEMs just need to put in a BIGGER battery. My 5.2" 1440p Moto XT1225 has a 3900 mAh battery. There's no limit on battery size they can put into a phone. Especially spread out over a 6" frame! So what if it's 1mm thicker! No one is begging for credit card thin phones anyway.

Although I am not 100% sure, I think Xiaomi does have 1440p screens in some of their phones. I am glad you mentioned ZTE's Axon 7 though. That is a perfect example of a 1440p screen phone where the rest of the hardware and software was an absolute disaster. Speaker issues, charging port issues, and many software issues, just to mention a few. Thankfully they went with physical buttons under the screen that ensured I wouldn't buy it. I would have been so mad if I had wasted my money buying two of them!
My last three phones are the Nexus 6P, Nexus 6, and Nexus 5. I have not used a 1080p screen on a newer phone but I wouldn't think there is a massive difference on panel sizes so small. I guess seeing is believing though.

I'm not too sure what you mean by that. Both are dual standby.
So, any ideas where we can source the V30+ H930DS model from?

So, for example, my G4 had dual sim + a dedicated SD slot. so i can have 2 sims and my SD card all working at the same time.
Manufacturers these days (for some reason I cant understand) have decided to make it a 'one or the other' scenario. The Dual sim/SD card uses the same tray, so you can only have one of either dual sim, OR 1 sim + 1 SD. this is known as a hybrid sim system. I hate it.

I don't believe any of them officially support all three. Even the ZTE Axon 7 didn't officially support all three but it did work. Removing the SIM from the plastic shell without damaging it and sticking it to the MicroSD card looks easier than it is.

interesting. I have seen it done, but thought it was a huge faff and more likely than not didnt work.
maybe that is my answer.

There are tutorials on YouTube showing how to do it. Melting the glue holding the SIM to the plastic without cooking it as well as not bending the SIM too much while removing it are the parts I would say isn't easy. If you are going to try though, I would suggest having a few SIM's on hand just in case one or two get damaged.

I haven't seen any. If you find any, let me know. I lump them in with all the other budget OEMs who can't really make a high spec phone, but have lots of hype.

The Mi Note Pro from way back in 2015 had a QHD display. It just seems the ones that do have a QHD display don't really catch my interest because they are basically clones of phones I wouldn't buy anyway.
Still no sign of the dual sim version? Anyone have any info on expected release date?
I'm thinking of buying a mate 10 of amazon. I was wondering before i buy if its fully works on At&t. Buy that i mean like lte and such. If anyone has purchased one can you tell me what you do and dont like about the phone. Also If you have att and your experience so far with it. Below is a link to the phone im looking at.
Here is the link https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...fl_title_10?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A35WDPB4Y8D904

I purchased the same model from ebay, working good on at&t. Great phone for the price.

As far as I know, the Mate 10 has the most complete radio available on any 'phone - that is, it covers more bands than any other 'phone that's available today (or possibly ever).
One comment I'd make is to go for the ALP-AL00 and make sure the seller can install the ALP-L29 (international) firmware onto it before sending it to you. I know all of the sellers on AliExpress will do this as a matter of course, but I refuse to deal with Amazon so can't comment on their suppliers. The ALP-AL00 gives you the 6Gb of RAM and 128Gb of internal storage that the Mate 10 Pro has, but also gives you all the benefits of the "standard" Mate 10 (i.e., headphone socket, QHD 16:9 LCD display [no worries about OLED burn-in], front-mounted fingerprint scanner and support for additional storage [up to 256Gb MicroSD]).
