Alrighty, thank you guys. I've been scouting this phone for a while and it seems great. I wouldn't be looling for a new phone but on my P9 lite 2017 after I updated Android to 8 the battery is unpredictable it shuts down at 30-40% you put it on charger it says it has still 40% left... Or when it does somehow get to 1% and shuts down you put it on charger and same thing it says it still has 30-40%...

One more, its original Android is Nougat or Oreo. If you do not bother with that, may I advice you not to update it? Otherwise, buy a phone with Pie or Q.

After the last update phone is slow. Multimedia messages don't download and if I send one it fails. None of the apps give notifications. I only see them when I go into the app. All happened after the update. Phone was perfect before!!

I used the phone normally and managed to get up to 5 hours of included screen, and for the last 7 days my phone was empty. Usually before I sleep I would have up to 40% of the battery and in the morning 8-9%. what is the problem?

Did someone realized that after the One UI update the battery is drain faster than before? Before update I usually charge only once a day, in the afternoon but after the update I should charge at least twice a day, in the morning and afternoon.

Samsung is shit. A8 2018 (phone of 500$) got One UI 1.0. Model J7 2017 (phone of 300$) got One UI 1.1.
Nice job Samsung.

I just wonder if your ZTE phone is your last phone before this A8 2018. I never try ZTE phone and gsmarena.com never review a ZTE phone so far I know.
