Babydubdub, 06 Dec 2024I don't really care about refresh rate, can you elabor... moreAlong way since my review on this phone in this comment down below, battery still OK
Daily casual used like scrolling facebook, watch yt,instagram and web using wifi brightness 30% 5 hours only decreasing 45% with total wake up time of 13 hours.

Sleep 8 hours with wifi on backgroud apps off except the important one like whatsapps or any social media only decreasing the battery 1-3%

On game is depend

High end game like genshin/wuthering waves will only take 2-3.5 hours for the battery last only 5%

While

Low mid end game like world of tank blitz (on medium sett 60fps),cytus,this war of mine, pubgm 60fps smooth, and deemo can last you 4 hours+ until the battery 5% left.

If you have any unusual battery drain usage, check with devinfooverlay and turn on invert battery current, on idle or light task the phone normally only used 100-500mA/h while medium task is around 500-1000mA (like watching video 1080p60fps or using alot of bandwidth and storage power) and high task is around 1000-2500mA (such as playing the high end game or stress testing the device).

    This is the phone am currently using but i need Android version upgrade to 15

      Update update
      After getting the cooler things are working really really nice just get a cooler.
      At genshin it can run high res high shadow quality medium environment 30fps without lagging due to the cooler
      Codm it's high graphic s max fos but go lower to avoid extreme battery drain
      Pubg go for smooth or balanced with extreme fps

          I'm also referring to the October 5th update
          Thank You

            Yup, 26 Nov 2024Its goodCan you elaborate more.
            Also I'm talking about the October 5th update

              Alantyui, 05 Dec 2024Feels unrefined and coarse man and it's me with it for... moreIn my country (kenya) I've just woken up and I can confirm to you I opened genshin at 27degrees
              Played for like 10 buttery smooth minutes until they hit 40 degrees.
              I think the leather back insulates too much heat, I'll be buying the oneplus 27w cooler this week stay tuned

                Alantyui, 05 Dec 2024Feels unrefined and coarse man and it's me with it for... moreSo on gaming as for me genshin heats up alotbut those jumps are there and they're not procssor jumps they're screen jumps u feel me u can see that yelans moving then scratch but u see the movements fluid but there was that jump or drop happen s all the time pls pls fix this other wise with ok and carefulbuss plus bypass charging this can be a good phone for a good while

                  Feels unrefined and coarse man and it's me with it for just 2 days , I updated to android 14 immediately then voila, the phone feeling not ok, just kinda stuck, just smth missing that silky smoothness is there but something feels jammed and u can see its like the processor is ahead of the screen.
                  I want a new update asp and also heating is an issue get a cooler if u wanna game.
                  Otherwise cool in photos and stuff nice overall AI and OS, value for money so yeah

                    Yup, 26 Nov 2024Its goodGood thing about this update now u can run device on 60hz without jerks or gitters as much still usable previously we noticed since andriod 14 on 60 hz it was like to much gitters & lag like can't set it on 60hz u have to put to 90 or 120hz all the time for smoothness but now they somehow fixed it and u can get decent battery life after put to 60hz and animation and other activities u can handle decently

                      Just used this phone for almost 2 weeks, here's my short review

                      Note : used the latest version, I bought the phone used for $170, the only other option at the same price is GT 10 pro, Iqoo Z7/Z9x,LG V60, sony xperia 5 ii and a used samsung A53, I this phone is the best compared to all of them, I mean not in overall phone, but reliability, the used japanese phone I mention above is like gamble and samsung phone sometime comes with a bonus light saber if you know what I mean.

                      Performance : its quite good, 810K-ish on Antutu V10
                      Real world like game is like

                      Genshin high sett : 40-50fps-ish depend on places, thats the average, 1% low is kinda bad cause the phone used all of its power, like drawing around 2300mA or so, optimize game tend to do that.

                      World of tank medium : 110fps still dips but almost never goes below 60, can play it on highest but shadow on medium with all extra setting lowest w 120fps but not really that stable above 60fpd

                      Wuthering waves lowest : 38fps
                      Wuthering waves highest : 32fps
                      The game is not optimize, like barely draw the phone power above 1500mA, above is the average, all setting always drop below 30fps, the game is so bad at utilitize the phone power, like on some certain places you can get 50-60fps with the phone drawing 2500mA, but mostly the fps is like on the above, not overheating, not power limit, its the game, its not optimize I presume its because its mediatek, game with grapich profile engine is bad on phone.....


                      Battery : normal for a phone that can draw 8W, it reminds me a phone w snapdragon 845/888 which draw 8w and above, full power can draw 2800mA which can last 1 hours 40minute ish.

                      On game I mention it lasted around 3 hours 30 minute from 100-5%, but if you lower the power usage by lowering the setting in game, you can get 4 hours 30 minute-ish like the usual phone with 5-6w soc like G99, snap 7 gen 3 or somethinh similiar on a 5.000 mAh

                      Casual used is quite okay, like turn off data on/wifi on 8 hours only decreasing 4% and daily used like youtube, watch video and media social scrolling can last a day.

                      Charging is ok, 0-100 is around 1 hours 30 minute, first charging rate can turbo around 5000mA and drop down to 3500mA ish.

                      Camera : kinda dissapointed especially for a phone that launch at $300, I compared it with my $80 itel P55 5g and the difference is just really not huge, well in low light or dark places like night time is quite good, and the OIS is ok, but the thing that is bad is that the fact the color profile on the camera is just oversaturated and compare to the sony xz2/3 and p55 5g, its not realistic, but still usable tho.

                      Temp :
                      On room temp 26* no AC just fan circulating the air in the room, playing game it can reach 43*, same like my P55 5g but the screen got hot too in the camon, like the sony xz2/3 with its 8w+ soc.

                      Playing on a game with a peltier cooler/a fan directly blows into it can help the battery temp go down and have much mkre stable experience.

                      Basic stuff like scrolling media social, streaming yt and watching FHD content is ok, around 36*
                      Idle and just listening to music/podcast scrolling file are around 32-36*

                      Temperature of a phone is depend on its Environment.

                      Feature : its a trassion phone, its good enough, but dont expect a special thing.

                      Display : good enough, havent found any issue, but the thing I dislike about this phone especially at its launch price is that the lack of screen protector like gorilla glass

                      Sound : good enough, the jack with its high res is quite OK.

                      Overall its good enough of a phone, on 28 nov 2024, I think this phone is worth at $150-190$, above it is not really worth it.

                              Does it go off like just goes black, no shutdown sequence and does it require some light taps or hitting to get it to turn on again???
                              But thankful the issue seems to have gone away, it hasn't gone off for the past 5 days so I think I'm safe
                              What I did is I changed a certain resistor on the motherboard and also changed the battery, although after all this it still had the issues but it suddenly just stopped some days ago.
                              So maybe give it a shot and see if it works

                                  If you're planning to buy this (brand new or second hand), DONT.

                                  Bought mine last year, July 2023. Died Nov 2024. Just randomly dies. No signs, nothing. I was charging it and while checking, it died.

                                  Tried to cpu reball it, still nothing. No fix at all. Possibly a motherboard issue.

                                  Might as well buy any other brands except transsion.

                                      Babydubdub, 17 Nov 2024The battery life becomes horrendous once you upgrade to And... moreUnfortunately, I'm not experiencing the android 13 of this phone because I bought it used and its already android 14 from the go.

                                      I just tested this device for 3 days today, I Will share my experience using it.

                                      But I will share this piece.

                                      This device same as every device that used SoC that have 8w+ cpu is always overheat when game without proper cooling.

                                      Like it got above 2300mA when fully loaded while other 5-6w soc (example G99/D6080,6 gen 1,snap 865) at best is only drawing 1800mA and averaging around 1300mA.

                                      Just wait for my result of testing this device, probably a week from now.

                                        Mizuki115, 15 Nov 2024Ouh so thats a new update, So i just bought the phone for... moreThe battery life becomes horrendous once you upgrade to Android 14. It also overheats way more than it use to before the update. It also has this thing of also switching from 60hz to 120hz after a reboot (I use it on 60hz).
                                        Well the probleme are mostly about the battery life and the cooling, which all get worse once you update to Android 14.
