I have been using it for more than 8 months..Its quite good..the battery life is excellent but...I would advice the buyers to not allow the battery to drain below 30% ...then the apps become too slow..sometimes the set hangs..

          p780 dude, 05 Apr 2015The phone is 7/10 on kitkat. +'ves 1. Good battery li... moreIf you don't like the lenovo skin get a launcher instead. I myself, am using nova launcher.

          About GB, if you remember, GB had so much updates back in the day because it was buggy as hell! KK seems to have taken a misstep on this phone, not because of Google or AOSP but the idiots at lenovo who were assigned to portKK on this phone. KKis quite good and stable as I experienced first hand on previous lenovo phone particularly the s930 which when I got it was in JB and had an OTA to KK without any ill effects. It's just the OEM developers who are messing it up. I bet, if you could port stock Google Android on this, it won't have the problems as encountered by so many users.

It had no effect whatsoever on my cards. Also, my battery life wasn't affected. Still getting 2 days worth.

              Anonymous, 07 Apr 2015do the back cover of lenovo s850 have any special features?... moreNo. Nothing special. Just a plain old metal cover. I bought a new one from their service center here in the Philippines and judging by the look and feel of it (aside from the rubber insert), nothing's special about the plate. Sorry.

                I just updated to s228 firmware a week ago and I must admit, it's as trouble free as the the first time I jumped to s226 (I skipped the previous update prior to s226 and did the same with s228). Aside from the stupid decision of lenovo of not including their previous "backup and restore" app, (which I was furiously insisted by the system prior to upgrade form JB to KK that I use the said app. Now I can't retrieve my old SMS trapped in the blamed dead app) everything's peachy. No mods needed. No network, signal, battery or notification problems as stated in the previous posts. Granted I got this bnew last November (8GB) but it has a 2013 production date it hasn't suffered any ill effects as numerously mentioned. Knock on wood! I hope lenovo stops KK development and focus on getting lollipop right on this machine instead. Even though this will be my last lenovo (nay, all chinese) branded phone. I'm sticking with Japanese, Korean and Taiwanese brands for all my android and PC needs, thank you very much!

                        Never ever buy the hell phone.

                        Only battery is good.

                        Can't update Kitkat if you do then gone.

                        No USSD messages

                        Hang & Restart

                        They will never replace once purchade date is more than 7 days.

                        Customer care service also like Chineese

                          do the back cover of lenovo s850 have any special features? it is different than other covers and bit interesting..do anyone have any idea.?

                            AnonD-368186, 03 Apr 2015You're lucky I live in Brazil and I took a bad phone.Its not like that my bro,,, just restart it frequently, switch it off for atleast 2hrs a day, if you have upgraded to Kitkat then follow these,, Master reset it,, do a half a dozen restarts, if signal drops then go to sim management just turn off both sims, and activate them after a couple of minutes. No problem with my phone even after upgraded to KItkat just a bit less battery back up. But specs are awesome. if you wish follow my tips and you will not be sad.

                                        Jellybean runs well on P780. But after Kitkat 4.4.2 update phone got slow, Contact Manager takes too long to load. Bad update. Lenovo developers should fix it.
