This is, by far, the slowest phone I have ever owned. Like EXTREMELY slow.
Having read glowing reviews on it, I'm quite baffled...

Xperia L1 is not the best but is far from the worst. For me is great compared to cost.

To have a honest opinion the device is offering good hardware for the money he ask.
As a rating performance/cost is about 8/9 stars. The phone is really responsive and work sharp.

Google Chrome has been found to still obtain background data even when not in usage, so if you force stop and disable it you might notice a performance increase, especially in weaker networks? I used Firefox from the beginning so I have no comparison benchmarks, but it's worth a shot, and Firefox has a pretty good mobile web browser anyway.

No issue whatsoever with performance. Not one sign of lag or stutter yet.
fastest smartphone i've used....
Yeah super fast coming from note 4 which I was happy with. Super duper fast
Works great for my daily things, and even the few games I play.
Size and spec of the s7 edge makes it my daily device and it works perfectly so far.
Coming from ip6s+, but also had before that N6p,N5 and s6 edge. So I compare it to good devices and not some low end device..

its fast, dunno how good it is compared with other newer phones, but everything runs smooth, games are awesome!
Setting everything was super fast, did a reboot and charging up to take a break, coming from a Note 4, which was reasonably fast, but this thing has zero lag so far.
GS7
this is a great phone, you can get the performance that you want and easily to use :good:
Snappiness of this phone has put my Note 4 to shame, particularly with switching to and from camera to gallery.
The sd card max transfer speeds are not up to par for 2016. Everything else is great.
Galaxy S7 edge is really fast, I do all multi tasking stuff like running multiple apps, playing game, downloading and auto updates parallely and its still runs with full speed. like all other samsung mobiles S7 edge runs with high speed.
No lag for me yet.
I can easily get mine to freeze up or lag.

Same here. There is microlag when scrolling all throughout Touchwiz. For the most part its smooth and seamless but for everyone saying they haven't seen lag, you probably have.
There is just a strong chance that it wasn't sustained lag which makes it easy to be dismissive of it.
It is especially noticeable when coming from the N6P (chalking this up to stock android not being bloated)

Agreed, I have seen micro lag, but nothing to irritating. It got much better when I disabled everything (everything that is dis-ableable anyhow) from Samsung and Verizon as always. Also as always once its rooted we can disable the rest and ti will fly. Its a shame that we have to do that, but it is what it is. I would do anything for an S7 Edge with stock Android... Better yet, a Nexus Edge
Hi, and what about the most performance demanding games? I use these expensive phones as portable consoles and if I invest 800€ into phone, which is price of computer, I expect every single game on google play smooth at 50 fps. But on some ytb videos I have seen some microshutter and fps drops for example in Dead trigger 2, Asphalt 8 or GTA san andreas. Dont know which version it was, but I prefer adreno 530 gpu which is not on market in my country :/ . I actually dont care very much about fast app launching/loadings or appdrawer, but for me most important is FPS when game is already loaded. Or can I lower res to 1080p to eliminate any FPS issue? Did anyone compared gaming exynos vs snapdragon? (not benchmarks, real gaming FPS) .
PS: Please keep hate and comments like phone is not for gaming away, Im listening it all the time. But i am heavy gamer at any platform and if I wanted phone for calls and sms I could stick with my old nokia 3310. But thanks for any possible useful info from owners of this phone
Only time I had lag was with Chrome. I'm using the Samsung browser now and it's fast. The update seems like it made my phone fast not that it was slow. I'm happy. Oh I'm using Nova so that probably helps.
most of it is fast except slight lag once in awhile. fps is slower compare to my oneplus 2
some games are laggier than on my Sony Z3, sometimes the transitions lag as well
Great speed

Fast and good price/Performance
Hörverlust, I dont "Love" this Phone, cause I wanted an other Phone. It was Sold Out in whole Berlin (Germany)
Wonderful phone, couldn't ask for more except in the screen glass department as it seems like a weaker slot of glass compared to other budget phones

+ Good price/quality.
- Android version from march 2017; now it is august
Actually, moving on from this one. Good phone for what it is.
However:
1: No magnetometer / compass / gyro. my bad. assumed all phones had them and various apps important to me need them
2: Dual Sim doesn't work. Why anyone would sell a dual sim phone in Aust that needs 2G?? And months later no update from Motorola.
Funnily enough my 3 requirements of Dual Sim that works on 4G/3G, Magnetometer / Gyro, somewhat water resistant, are only net by VERY few phones at all in the A$400 range.
Am ordering a Moto Z Play on Monday. Meets those requirements, has adequate camera and display, more RAM and Storage than i have now, AND a monster battery life.
Actually think the Motorola brand IS a good one though. Like i said, G5 is a good phone, but may have been a mistake for me to have. Offspring likes it though.

I'm getting ran Antutu and am seeing 173K, but only when the phone has been sitting idle.
If anything has been running it drops to 150K.
If it's warm or you have been running games that are compute intensive, the phone will throttle down to 120K.
Thermal throttling is way aggressive on this device.
I believe software updates can make it a easy 5
Just got one since the price dropped on Amazon. Right now, it's a backup phone, but playing around with
it, it's LIGHTNING fast. I use Nova Prime for the launcher. Screen is clear as a bell!

This is a great phone especially for the money. I use the Apex launcher and that makes it even better. The only real criticism I have is that the cameras are a little iffy. Some pictures are not as sharp as others. I give the overall phone five stars. Maybe an update would fix the minor camera problem. The only other problem is that I really like the fingerprint sensor on the back. Using the various screen lock apps makes the phone wake up needing the password. The fingerprint sensor simply doesn't work using a screen lock app.
I loved this phone however there are some bugs like dialer is not a google one eventhough it is a AndroidOne phone and there are some bugs with cellular network.
mynonly issue is the camera but i dont too many photos so im not that bothered, and the rest of the phone is great
Nice Camera in its range but do need bit more improvement.
It's been less than 2r4 hours and so far I am loving this phone. A great device at a great price point.
Pluses:
+ Pure Android (7.1.2 at the moment)
+ Timely updates (not really, Android 8.0 was released months ago and there's no sign of it)
+ Relatively fast and bloat free
+ 3.5mm audio jack
+ Price at Chinese etailers (~$210)
+ Dual SIM or single SIM + microSD
Minuses:
- In low light conditions the camera sucks completely and video recording is just awful; also no OIS or EIS
- Snapdragon 625 severely underperforms
- Huge bezels
- No stereo speakers
- Automatic brightness on my device doesn't work correctly - the phone is too dim in a bright environment and too bright in a dim environment
- No kernel sources yet - really Xiaomi??
IOW we need Nexus to be resuscitated. Pixels are too expensive.
Simple, smooth, no bloatware.
Pretty satisfied!!!
Great value for money
I feel it is a solid phone, but the design is boring. Probably after 5 years you won't have many memories about this phone, whereas some people have fond memories of other phones (like many people had about old Nokias or Walkman phones).
1. awesome value for money
2. love the build quality
3. fast + smooth + stock OS
4. great storage capacity
5. the camera is so so.. it could do so much more with the proper software (side loaded with GCam HDR+)
and this MiA1 is my daily warrior until 2 years ahead
Love it.
'Nuff said
I'm really happy with what I've got AUD 280 including tempered glass and delivery. Great screen and it does what I need.

I dun understand why ppl crazy abt bezeless phones ... wat I know it's gonna hurt (spider web screen) so much once it dropped.
I think it's terrific. Best phone I've used since the OnePlus One. No idea about the camera as I haven't used it (and probably won't use it much even when I get round to it - I'm a man in his 40s, not a selfie-obsessed teenager), but it does everything I need.
It's nice and light, build quality looks good, monthly security patches and Android updates before just about any other phone on the market. For 165 quid, it's outrageous value. Love it.
This is the best phone for me - it can give EVERYTHING a developer wants. The Chipset supports Machine Learning SDKs, the device has a Dual camera system which serves waaaay more than enough if you don't shoot 24/7. The performance is great and Android One serves the best software experience. The device feels a lot more expensive and premium than it is.
I'm very very happy with this phone now it has oreo, I'm not one to moan about waiting for update and this was worth the wait because they fixed the multi touch sensitivity problem so all is good here

If you people see your phone as a loving figure, you need to get a life (and a girlfriend) already.

You can love anything in life and as many and as much as you wish... It's a choice. There are no rules. Grow up kido.
And I also love this phone, almost everything about it. Except a little squeek sound when I squeeze it... My bad luck! [emoji39]
Did I say I LOVE IT??? ???

I really like the design with the white front, screen is big and beautifull, powerfull speakers, great cameras, very fluid UI. For ~200€ you cant get better.
worst smartphone I've ever owned, period.
