hey guys ,
should i go for the lg v10 or the mate 8 ???
both has large screens
but i saw on videos that the mate 8 beats the lg v10 in the performance
the camera of lg v10 is better and the interface is better
the mate 8 is more expensive than the lg v10 in my country
i really like the second screen and the design of the lg v10
the mate 8 has 4000 mah to 3000 mah for the lg v10
should i pay more to for the mate 8 fro the extra battery and performance ?? or get the lg v10 ?? or the new released oneplus 3 LOL :laugh::laugh::laugh:
I have not tried the mate 8, and can only comment on the v10, which I have.
-I would not worry about performance issues with the v10. It's very good for real world application, even if it does not benchmark as well as some of the competition
-The 3000 mah battery on the v10 is on the low side. On most days the battery barely makes it through the day for me. On days I'm out of the office for extended periods of time, I generally carry a spare battery. But the nice thing is that the battery is replaceable, unlike the mate 8, I think.
-The v10 is very good for media: music, videos, camera

The V10 is optimized very well by LG. Everyday use and speed is on par with the current sd820 flagships. Sound quality is the best I've ever heard on a mobile device. I have to confirm the previous comment regarding the battery. I also carry a spare battery with me, which i charge using a cradle. The advantage of a cradle is, you can charge the empty battery while on the road using a power bank, its charging time is less than the SOT of the V10. So when your V10 runs out of juice, you will always have a full battery ready. Btw, the LG cradle also supports quickcharge 2.0
Another advantage of a cradle: it's better for the battery, because if you charge the phone while using it, it's detrimental for the overall battery health.
ithink i will go for the lg v10 and save the extra money to buy a cradle
Mate 8 will kill lg v10 in bat. performance...speed performance doesn't matter, it's like should I got on Porsche or Ferrari...LG cam is better...If you gonna stick you mobile phone for longer period of time go for LG...(removable battery), and it's more ''original''...
mate 8 is extremely fast it has fantastic performance
great battery
good display
fantastic fingerprint
great design
good sound from speaker way better than v10
but camera is really ****
i s old it because off the bad camera
focus is ****
low light quality is **** . indoor quality is ****
even in daylight all photos has soft details
soft is fast and smooth but its design is really boring

I agree, but at least it's an issue you can solve. If a phone has a bad camera, thats it. You're stuck. If it has bad audio, you're stuck.
Hi
I am Nexus 4 user - great phone with lot of great ROMs available here, great performance and good size - but battery is no longer big enough to match my needs. So I am looking for a new phone and ran into Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro.
There is a lot of positive comments about this device, but also quite a lot of drawbacks - no 800MHZ band, problems with microphone/speaker, some battery performance issues... So, is there any better choice in that kind of money? I am looking for something with big battery to be able to do something more than 2-2,5h of WEB vieweing... I am not playing games, apps that I am using are not really demanding ones. My other thought is Asus Zenfone Max - but Redmi Note 3 PRO looks much better while comparing some statistics.
So, any other thoughts? I would be grateful for all responses and advices
If you need 800mhz try: http://www.geekbuying.com/item/-HK-...OTG-Fast-Charge-Gyroscope---Black-367828.html
I have no issues with battery or speaker. 800mhz isn't the end of the world unless you 100% need it
If you can live without 800mhz and bad low light camera, nothing can beat this device value. Battery and performance is among the best you can get today.
I never have those mic/speaker/battery/performance issues.
Hello, I received my RN3 Pro yesterday and I have to say it's freakin amazing. A definite upgrade from Nexus 4(I came from a Moto G2, and before that Nexus 4). I charged it to 100% yesterday and it gave me 7.5hrs SOT till 1pm today, which is frankly mind blowing for two reasons,
1) More than 4hrs SOT ftw
2) I played around 1hr of Pokemon go ( continuously uses 3G and GPS) and still managed 7hrs sot.
So yes, you'll easily get >3hrs of web viewing. The one issue I found however is that the phone makes a hissing sound when connected to AUX cable, many people have this problem and are saying it's software related, so maybe there will be a fix. Secondly on very low volume with earphones,(step 1-3) you can hear a noticeable hissing sound which I'm pretty sure is software related, but it's not a deal breaker. The drawback of the Asus I feel is that there's no rom support, not as good specs as the RN3. RN3 has a snapdragon 650 which is basically an improved version of last year's flagship SoC. Also, build quality is amazing on the RN3. MIUI is a great feature packed rom!
So basically I definitely recommend the RN3, the battery life is going to definitely make you very happy ��
Yes definitely,its a beast and even I came from mako to this phone .I've to say I'm amazed by its battery and performance.really so fast the custom ROM development is awesome for this phone.. definitely a good choice to buy this phone for such a low cost..!
Thank You very much for all answers
Yeah, I think I can live without 800mhz, for taking good photos in every occasion I have other more specialized devices
I just ordered 2/16 version
So I bought a new battery, still drained as hell, swapped ROMs still draining fast, tried to reduce CPU clock still nothing.
So were both my batteries faulty or it's a bug in the software?
Currently using RaineStorm Pro 6.6.17 MIUI8 and it's the best ROM so far but the battery still drains faster than expected.
Any help is apprieciated, thanks in advance.
The only advice I can give to you is not to buy a mediatek phone the next time. They are know to be awful under every aspect.
I've not seen any discussion on battery life since the launch of the Note 10. Would people please share:
1. How is it now that there's been time for Samsung to fix early issues
2. Did Android 10 upgrade help?
3. Does it last through a day of heavy use?
4. Snapdragon or Exynos?
More info: I'm considering buying the Note 10 but the original reviews are mixed. Some say battery life is good but most say it's disappointing. It would be to replace an iPhone XS that is 12 months old, battery health is a shocking 84% and the SoT time is less than 3 hours, so I won't be buying any more overpriced junk from Apple. I'm in the UK so would be getting the Exynos unless I take a risk and grey import a Snapdragon, and live without the warranty.
More battery life is *always* better, but I really have no complaints about my Note 10 battery. It lasts all day, every day. I average 5.5 hours SOT, but it would get a lot more if I pushed it below 10% charge. However, I rarely let it drop below 30%, or fully charge to 100%. I try to take it off the charger between 60-80% to preserve long-term battery life. So while 5.5 hours SOT may seem low to other Note users, I am averaging 5.5 hours SOT from only a 50-70% charge, which is pretty damn good imo.
I disabled some apps that I'll never use, but otherwise I don't need to gimp it to make it through the day. I noticed a slight improvement in battery life with Android 10. I don't do much gaming, but I do a lot of web browsing, YouTube, and listen to Google Play Music and Sirius XM, and it has no problems lasting a full day.
I have the Snapdragon model. I don't have any experience with the Exynos model, but if you are in the UK, then I would recommend going with Exynos just for the warranty. There may be some YouTube videos comparing the battery and performance differences, you may want to look for those. I remember a couple of years ago the Exynos models were noticeably worse as far as battery, but I think the latest Exynos chips have closed the gap.
If battery life is a top priority, then you should consider the Note 10+ which has 23% larger battery (4300 vs 3500 mAh).
One last thing to consider: The Galaxy S20 models are right around the corner. I am not trying to talk you out of a Note, but if you can live without the Spen, you might want to wait for the Galaxy S20 Plus and Ultra. The Plus model is supposed to have a 4500 mAh battery, and the Ultra is rumored to have a massive 5000 mAh battery.
Edit: Btw, congrats on graduating from iOS. You'll love the customizability of Android, and now that RCS is available, you won't miss iMessage as much :good:

Battery time is average.
battery timing is inversely proportional to the time you are free

Thanks for taking the time to reply - appreciate it. Sounds like our usage patterns are similar. I don’t really game but I use web and media on public transport for a couple of hours a day, in poor signal areas so every phone I’ve had struggles.
Am trying to keep phone size down, the Note 10 Plus is definitely too big! I like the fact that with the standard Note 10 it’s almost the same size as my current iPhone XS, just 5mm taller.
Re graduating (haha) I’ve had android before. Before this iPhone I had the OnePlus 5T and really liked it until I changed cars and it completely refused to talk to the audio system.
I found a YouTube video comparing the Qualcomm and Exynos Note 10’s and in his test he got 7 hrs from the Exynos and 8hrs from the Snapdragon. Wow, bit of a difference.
Will see what the S20 (standard size) is like, and then decide whether to risk an imported Note 10 [emoji106]

Correction, the video of the Snapdragon getting another hour of screen time is the S10, not the Note 10, which means the Exynos is the 8nm 9820 rather than the 9825 in the Note.

So i got my Exynos note10 (not a new one, a used one but in a good shape) a week ago running android Q, and the battery drain was a little bit higher than average (compared to what people claiming in the battery section). So i decided to do a fresh reset by flashing a firmware using odin, after that i did some optimizations, disabling features that i dont really need, debloating some apps and waiting for the phone to learn my battery usage pattern (it took me around 4-5 days).So now I can get 7 to 8 hours of SOT using Chrome as my web browser, social media apps, and youtube. So yeah i think the 3500 mah battery is doing a pretty good job.
That’s really good, lots of owners don’t get that out of the Plus model

Can you tell us more what did you disable, what did you uninstall/disabled and more...

So the first thing i did was to flash a stock firmware and root it using magisk. Then i charged my phone until it get 100%, i use it until it dies and cannot get booted again (when the phone dies keep rebooting it until it cannot get rebooted again). I did the charging and discharging thing twice. I think this step is like calibrating your battery, correct me if I am wrong.
Then thanks to this post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10/how-to/galaxy-note-10-note-10-plus-debloat-t3964225 i debloated Bixby, samsung pass / pay , samsung sticker center... Do this step at your own risk because you can brick your phone if you didnt choose correctly what to debloat.
Then i enabled Adaptive power saving, put unused apps to sleep, Optimise Battery usage and i restricted background activity and i use dark mode all the time.
I disabled Air action and all features related to S pen ( i only use s pen for writing).
You may not notice a big difference in the battery life until your phone learns usage pettern ("Learning pattern" usage becomes "An estimated time" in device care battery's section)
If you are on a rooted phone then you can use greenify to hibernate other apps.
Additional information, my phone battery drains from like 100% to 80% much quicker and then it start to go slower and slower because each battery behaves in a different way.
Took another look at the Note 10 today and think it's an absolutely stunning looking device. Best looking phone around for me. I noted in the Samsung store that they don't offer any sort of satisfaction guarantee, which is disappointing. Would have been tempted to take one if I had some insurance on the battery life not working out.
But the S20 has now launched, and it's impressive from a specs point of view. Time to see how the S20 reviews play out.

Yes, the S20 phones are phenomenal, especially the S20 Ultra. Which means the Note 11/20 will be an absolute beast

You are wrong this is really old battery habits. For several years and actual battery tech it's not recommended to fully discharge , the best way to improve battery life is to stay over 20% and avoid fast charging. That is also not how phone calibrates batteries.

Battery life on the Snapdragon Note 10+ has been great. It stayed consistent with the Android 10 update. I had the Note 8 before this phone, and I'd have to say the 10+ is better.
Indeed the difference is not so abysmal as before

Actually, there is a comparison for Note 10+ Exynos vs Snapdragon and indeed, the difference in battery is now minimal, of course the weak point for the Exynos is still the Mali GPU. So it looks like for power comsuption is now more even between Exynos 9825 and Snapdragon 855 (which is kind of obvious since both are 7nm)

Interesting thanks.
One of the things I’ve been bitten with on iPhones is the effect on battery life of the inferior Intel modems they’ve been using for the last few years. I went from an iPhone SE to an Xs and the difference in signal strength was definitely noticeable, and that will affect power consumption too.
I’m not saying this is the same with the Exynos modem but do tend to think that at this point, Qualcomm modems are the better

Hey guys I was actually scouting for new devices when I found a unboxed but new edge 30 pro for a great price. So my question is, is it a good device and should I even consider buying it. Also on the same point how is the battery life which is my greatest worry considering the 8 gen 1 in it. And how is the stock ui been.
Thank you !
Welp, phone seems pretty nice,
But 5000mAh battery scares me.
its not worth it, battery life is atrocious, updates are the worst in Android world, has no telephoto whatsoever, if u are into stock just get Pixel or Oneplus
OnePlus seems to be a problematic about its firmware and productivity,
Redmi or poco would be nice
Samsung would be nice too.
OnePlus with custom rom is considered best + it's snapdragon not overheating Tensor mess, Xiaomi with AOSP if any for newer devices, is trash and is best used with MIUI ( noone really likes that )
Of course it is, Xiaomi phones only indeed to work nicely with MIUI,
My battery lasts easily 1 day, sometimes up to 2, I really have no clue why are people complaining - are y'all running with all your services turned on constantly?...
literally everyone who owns a motorola device is complaining in their official forums so you gotta be using it for phone calls only and not as a top dog smart device, the drain on that thing is insane, if i bring my old Snapdragon 865 device running both @ 144hz , Moto will be fully dead while the other will be at over 60%
US equivalent is Edge+2022
A13 has battery improved, but it has minor flickering issue due to inconsistent brightness on different refresh rate. Set it on 60 or 144Hz can avoid the issue

I don't complain. I have Moto device (mid-range) and it has been very good since 2019. Month ago i changed new battery and now it's still good for next three years
Battery life is also great. 2 days easily and 7-8H sot usually with 60% usage.

Ah i see, yeah i would love to do that but the reason i was considering the edge 30 pro was due to a fantastic deal. After some days of researching i beleive this is a good device with a minor caviate being the battery life
Hopefully once i do get the device the battery wouldn't be too much of an issue, and i don't find any other skeltons in the closet. (Maybe i might even be pleasently suprised by the battery life considering my 888 is not a high bar to clear)

Ah, i see from what i have read though even with the x30 being an inferno, the edge 30 pro was quite good with head management, i hope that statement is actually true and not just reviewer fluff
there is no heat management, device is very plasticky and thus has no vapor chamber solution, heat is not an issue, battery suffers from poor governors, if u are buying from china unlock bootloader and use it with custom rom
