With so many Chinese phones available it is quite common for us to own more than one device, so which do you use as your everyday phone?
The last time I counted how many phones we had in the Gizchina office we were way above 30 devices! That’s a mix of low to high end phones from manufacturers ranging from Xiaomi, Oppo and Meizu, to new comers LeTV and affordable phones from Doogee, Mlais and Ulefone.
I believe the actual number of phones is now up to about 40, but with only 2 hands and so many pockets can only carry 2 with me at most and there is only one phone that I would consider my “daily driver”.
For anyone who has followed me this year you will already have a good idea of which two phones I use on a daily basis, for those of you who don’t they are the standard 16GB version of the Xiaomi Mi Note and the 16GB version of the LeTV Le 1 phone.
What we would like to know is which smartphone do you currently use as your daily driver? Don’t worry if its not a Chinese phone, if its an iPhone or Windows device, just tell us what you use on a daily basis and why.
I’ll start the ball rolling in the comments with the phone I use everyday. I look forward to hearing what you use.
no hope it is soon and better than the X5 Pro though. Also, hoping for an Xshot 2 as well
Yes the XShot 2 front has gone very quiet since the earlier leaks you mentioned, I was expecting it to be released by now.
hope for Xshot 2 too.Both OPPO and vivo are late to announce this year’s flagship, maybe because Snapdragon hear problem?
How are you finding it? If I can return my Lenovo I may go for this but am worried about the camera quality.
Thanks for that, really don’t know what to do for the best. There just aren’t any 6″ phones been released over the last 12 months.
The best camera I’ve seen on phones have been Nokia, Samsung with the S6 and the iphone 6+ but thats all I’ve tested. The Nexus 6 was a 6 inch (hehe) phone. At this point i’m interested in the new Moto X Style.
I’m looking at the nexus 6 on eBay, can get a nearly new one quite cheap (about the same price as a mid range Chinese phone), might get that to use till next year which should hopefully give Chinese manufacturers time to release a killer phone at a cracking price!
I’ve just seen leaks about the new phablet from Microsoft and they always have really good cameras so I’m looking at one of those now
I know I was waiting for that one to be announced. The price is completely crippling though and the helio x10 just isn’t up to running a QHD screen. Better off getting the X2 xtreme as it’s selling for nearly $200 less than the Chinese version and ships from Europe so no worries about customs tax.
You like mammoth phones what? 🙂 But isn’t the x2 also run by x10 on qhd screen?
Same here. I haven’t found a phone that could replace my Vivo xplay 3s in terms of rich sound from the speakers. Not many updates but the phone is so well optimized that it works great. My battery is losing some steam though. I’ve had it for almost two years now. That’s too be expected.
