G4 plus looks very good from the specs except that I am not okay with the size. It is too big for me. Also, it is bigger and thicker than other 5.5" phone like Le 1s etc. Anyone knows launch date for Oneplus 3? Quote:
So far no experience with Asus. How is the user experience? Is it plain Android or lots of useless customization? That will be a low end phone without many features and considered to be a replacement for Moto E. Last edited by adimicra : 19th May 2016 at 14:26. | ||

Anybody else with a suggestion on Redmi 1s vs Redmi Note 3? Especially, with respect to camera and screen. | |

| ![]() @Thoma if you are particular about Mi brand, then no other option. Moto g4 plus has received great reviews on its camera. Check it out. |

| ![]() It is expected in June but not sure. One Plus 3 will also be 5.5". Have to wait and see if they launch a smaller version to replace the One Plus X, but even then i doubt if it will be under 15k. From existing phones, I think all 5-5.2" phones with fingerprint scanner are in the above 25k range. I would also have preferred a 5 inch screen but I have accepted that i might have to go for 5.5" since all are going that way. It's not too bad either, since for some use cases, a bigger screen helps. Quote:
BTW, those who buy Moto G4 Plus till 22nd May will get a Kindle promo code for Rs1000/-. If you don't use Kindle Ebooks, then please share the promo codes ![]() Last edited by JonSnow : 19th May 2016 at 15:49. | |

| ![]() Guys need your feedback on a replacement phone for Moto X 2014. Couple of days back I dropped my Moto X and someone found it but never bothered to return it. All this in 20 mins span of time. They switchedoff /removed the sim. I really loved all the features on Moto X and was expecting it to last me another 2 years. Have not tracked any phones for quite sometime. Currently using iPhone 4 as temporary device and it is damn slow with majority of apps not working. Need your inputs with the following requirements
Range 1- 15k to 20k Range 2- 20k to 30K Any android with similar touch interface as iPhone. Are there good windows phones. Of late I see loads of fullpage ads with a new brand every time. How good are those phones. Till now I have stuck with the brands only except for one plus one (Marshmallow did wonders for it. On Lollipop it was a pain to use) Thanks |

![]() Decent enough for me man. Good enough for this price range. i have scanned 40+ cards using this phone. no real issues on that except the weight of the phone. Here is a very quick cam scan of an infra magazine (notice it was arched, hence the page appears a bit distorted): ![]() Nothing great, but not terribly bad either. of course, wait a week and you'll get an accurate comparison with the G4 plus as well ![]() Last edited by phamilyman : 19th May 2016 at 17:37. | |

Moto X style & Moto G4 plus are great option. Moto provides updates soon. OnePlus X is decent, OnePlus One is still good enough for many users out there. OnePlus 2 is brilliant. All will have CM support at some point. Nexus 6x is slightly above 34k, 5x isn't worth it. Quote:

| ![]() Moto X Style should tick all your boxes and it falls in your "range 2". Go for it!! Last edited by Technocrat : 20th May 2016 at 19:14. Reason: Please quote selectively as a large quoted post causes inconvenience to our mobile readers, thanks |

Given your usage, I think range 1 options should keep you covered for couple of years Last edited by lordvader : 19th May 2016 at 19:12. | |

By heavy usage do you mean browsing constantly all day or any other usage also? Did you notice any heating issues during the period? I am okay if it heats up during heavy gaming, since i don't play games much. But in normal usage such as web browsing or watching videos for extended periods, does it heat up? | |

Please wait till 09 June for some further details. It should cover you on all aspects (except 'maybe' on the screen size). Do note that more than screen size, the physical dimensions of the phone should be more relevant. So, compare phones with those specs and not on screen size. | |

| ![]() It seems to be a serious problem. You had better take it to the authorised service centre. |
