AnonD-688390, 30 Jul 2017What about Honor 8 Pro????It's fine just by design...
Camera-Nothing special
Speaker loud but unclear unfortunately
Display colors look little bit washed out
Battery is definitely good side of the phone
Gaming performance-good for the average person
UI performance-almost perfect but full off bloatware
Honor is lower end of Huawei... Decent but bad in multimedia... For me honestly not worth more than 300e

AnonD-687591, 30 Jul 2017my iphone 5s is starting to age and I'm wondering on buying... moreGo with HTC 10 than. I am an lg fan honestly but... G6's cameras seems to be a little hmmm lets say mess up when it comes to video recording or with a lot of shadows. Q8 is just refurbished unit called LG V34... Xiaomi 5s is kinda concept phone from xiaomi... Lot of software bugs ... You can go on the forum and see itself... Personally I use V20 for now and its a perfect device for me (have one more battery to change) but it can last for a day easy.... HTC 10 is a overall best there. Mid screen size, great multimedia, perfect gaming,and so-so (decent) battery,also need to mention OIS on front facing camera. Good job HTC

in the 300-400 Euroes segment you forgot Huawei Honor 8 and Huawei P9 that are beasts of phones.Yeah they don't have OIS and 4k recording,built quality alright and nice screen quality.But they are amazing in performance and got camera better than Xiaomi.
From the 400-500 price segment you forgot the Zte N17 which is a decent phone.Huawei honor 8 pro that offers more than the Oneplus5 in same price.And S7 Edge costs 480 Euroes not 500+.The Lg V20 provides great experience as well,with a camera quality of Huawei P9.
But honestly so far from the 400-500 price only the LG G6 seems great and best of the category.I am thinking of buying G6 or S7 edge.I do know the pros and cons.The only thing i dislike about G6 is when it plays youtube or some games it has black lines on top and bottom as extra bezzels lowering the screen enjoyment.

my iphone 5s is starting to age and I'm wondering on buying a new phone, but should I wait until the IFA lineup is out in order to have the newer SD 660? or should I buy one of the phones that are already out?
From the ones in the market I like the HTC10, LG G6, Lg Q8, Xperia X compact, and Xiaomi mi 5s. The problem with xiaomi os the lack of the 800 band for EU

Why no Xiaomi mi5 or LG G5 ? Both can be found for less than 250 euros and they make all the list up to 400 euros look like a waste of money.

AnonD-633729, 30 Jul 2017A total lie! S8 is faster and better battery life than XZP.PhoneArena battery rating rates XZ Premium higher in battery life (XZP 15 mins more):

This speed test shows XZP beating S8:

In browsing speed, the XZP absolutely demolished the S8.

100-200 Lenovo Zuk Z2 still is the king. For around 170 euros you get:
Snapdragon 820
4GB ram
64GB storage
1080P screen
3500mAh bat
13mpx cam
Fingerprint, type-C connector etc etc
It's the phone to beat. Shame that Lenovo is killing the brand...

AnonD-633729, 30 Jul 2017A total lie! S8 is faster and better battery life than XZP.S8 can't be faster with its heavy UI compared by Sony's lightweight and well optimized UI. YouTube will show you. Go and watch speed test videos.

Anonymous, 29 Jul 2017Mid range will never reach flagship. You will feel it when ... moreyes I do know that an odler S would have been better but at this price all i was getting was a s6 or an s6 edge both of ehich have very bad battery timings and a lot of overheating issues and they are also not going to get any new updates after nougat so this was the clear choice for me!!!
