After installing background apps (Facebook + messenger) and allowing them to persist in memory (via the security app), the battery is indeed poor. Around 3:30hrs SOT to 5hrs depending on workload. My nexus 5 with its paltry battery got the same thing

I had major problems with compatibility of apps that I got from the Google play store. Facebook and its messenger didn't work. I got a working FB from the Chinese store, but even their messenger never worked - had to use third party simple messenger. Doing factory reset, lost me the Google services, but was able to get them back by getting the Google installer from the Chinese store. I got the latest beta of the OS, but nothing changed. Half the apps I use that use FB integration for login purposes, can't go through that obstacle even though FB is working. I couldn't find custom ROM or stock Android for the phone, so I ended up gifting it to a friend, as my old 60$ Doogee is a better phone for me overall :(

If the meizu metal, with its helio x10 and metal unibody, is considered in your review as a midrange, then a phone as, lets say, samsung A5 with its snapdragon 410 is not a midrange, but a well built low end, nothing more (and expensive for that matter). Quadcore 1.2 ghz was midrange when snapdragon 800 was high end. We are well ahead that. Of course i only speak mainly of the chipset and there are other aspects of the device equally important, nonetheless chipset is a main defining aspect of a device's category. This in in fact a criticism to the manufacturers that insist in using snapdragon 410 for "midrange" phones when there are better choices of chipset outhere, like helio x10, exynos 5430 or even snapdragon 800.

I like the security feature outlined on the review that you could 'auto-kill' an app.My phone needs rooting for that to be done.Are there other phone brands that has an 'auto kill' switch/app pre-installed already?thanks in advance

AnonD-201598, 24 Nov 2015I don't understand the people that only buy Apple or Samsun... more1. No after sale service (some have them but not better than bigger brands)
2.poor software optimisation
3.Poor branding
4.poor quality components
5.these Chinese mobiles always have some shortcomings (like one has poor screen, other has poor battery backup even after having good amount of mah)
6.the branded phone can be used for longer time as compared to these Chinese mobiles
7.more important thing is the feel of mobile on which good companies focus on rather than just fitting good processer and ram
