Hello coming from the Z5, i had to say that's the worst mobile i had in the z series line up. May be i got a faulty handset? poor battery life and it was a mini heater. So, how is the z5 premium in these two aspects of battery life & temperature?
Cheers

I came to z5p from z2 (looks like you have owned it too) Average battery life of my z5p is almost same,but in heavy tasks (games,intensive internet surfing) z5p discharging faster than z2. And when I read books or listen the music z5p works noticeably longer than z2. Its about 30% in my experience. Heating is lower than z2 too.
By the way in FW 32.2.A.0.224 sony promised to optimize energy consumption and put back stamina mode.

Z2 & Z3 were the best in terms of battery stand by, so i am not comparing with that :highfive:
So, heating is less which is a great thing.
Also i heard after the latest updates, almost everything is displayed in 4k, is it true?
:good:

No, mostly 1080p. The phone would lag doing simple tasks, hell, it even lags when I emulate 4k from ADB.
Z5P does a good job managing heat. I think the dual heat sinks and thermal paste are doing their job
And regarding 4k, all 4k pixels are firing but resolution may not be 4k lol if that makes sense. 4k resolution becomes available in album, movies, and possibly Mozilla Firefox (I couldn't tell by looking at it but 4k option is available on yt and takes forever to buffer so I'm assuming it is?)
Well, i went ahead and made the purchase. Chrome looks beautiful and the mobile seems to be better in terms of battery life & heat management compared to the z5.
Thank you guys.
Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the Huawei Mediapad M3's battery performs under heavy use. A higher rating indicates that it lasts a long time even when playing games, streaming video and audio, and doing other CPU-intensive activities.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Heavy usage always impacts the battery. I get a few hours when I play games and it is good enough for me.

I have a question.I'm planing to get the m3 10.1 lte.What are u meaning for "heavy usage" ? I will play with games (gameloft) or as syberia so I dont think they are realy heavy (with a note 4 syberia 2 I was able to play with 3-4 hours) but olso streaming tv or divx.At the same time I think to get a SAMSUNG SM-T819 10.1 lte (but not sure with will habe the bettar performance with battery life /streaming .What do u think? Huawei or samsung?
@helen2: I only recommend the 8 inches Mediapad M3. The 10 inches Mediapad (Youth or Lite) have issues with touchscreen and are not as smooth as the 8 inches M3. You could do a lot with the 8 inches ME. It will be easier to carry around, performance is still very good. If you want an alternative, the S2 is not a bad choice. Lenovo Tab 4 8 Plus is also quite good. I do not know having a 10 inches tablet is a must. I had a 10 inches tablet in the past and I find 8 inches to be the perfect size for watching anything on it and still small enough to carry around.
Heavy usage means graphical intensive games like Mortal Kombat X, Real Racing 3, shooters and so on.
@tmihai20 ok no no i dont llike lenovo .Yes I was thinking to get the m3 8.4 inches but..I must look in the shp I have a note 4 5.5 so maybe 8.4 wll be to small,I think the best is 9.7 that I'm meaning using it as a alternative of a netbook.I will have a loook tomorow in shop if the have the 8.4
Thank's
@helen2: it is a shame you do not want a Lenovo tablet, because some people I know have returned the M3 in favor of the Tab 4 8 Plus.. It is also recommended all over Reddit as an alternative to M3. I have not used any Samsung tablets, but the model you specified (SAMSUNG SM-T819) is from 2016 and may not get updates past Nougat.
Huawei also announced Mediapad M5, that will have Quick Charge, the only thing missing from the M3. The SoC will be HiSilicon Kirin 960s, not the Kirin 970, it will not have audio jack and it will have a Type C connector. It may be worth waiting for the M5, if you do not mind the missing audio jack.

Crazy decision by Huawei, leaving the Audio Jack out on a tablet. :crying:
@Masteryates: one of the dumbest decisions. But hey, why not force everybody to use the damned adapters, so they can damage their tablets more easily and make them buy new ones? There is absolutely no justification to remove audio jack on a tablet.

Agreed Tmihai, :highfive:
In many ways it could be argued that Tablets should have 2 headphone jacks to allow 2 people to watch when your on a train etc. You can get an analogue audio splitter but doubt you can get similar for USB-C.

After the recent update i could say i was able to feel some heat only while playing games or some heavy usage.
I dont see any specific abnormal heating issues.
i'd like to say heating issue is not an issue on this phone. but very sure ppl will jump in and say they have this and it's bad, etc...
for me. i play games like Mobile Legends and Arena of Valor. no issues. no heat.
but i know that some actually complain of some heat after recording 4k video on the phone for a long time.
i've never had to record in 4K. never feel the need to. most devices can't play 4k anyway. my tv is only 1080 and my phone's only 2K (the honor 8 Pro)?!? but ya, ppl who do video editing might do that. then again, if they are into video editing, i doubt they'd be using a smartphone as recording device... so, in real world practical sense... i think it's a good phone. no heat issue.

i'm using the honor 8 Pro and i'd lie if i say there is no heat. there is when i use 4G and play games like MOBA. but usually, it's very, very little and at times it does get more only when the area has got poor reception.
is this phone "warmer" than other phones? no. if anything, i think it stays cooler than some phones I have used, including Samsung Note 2 and Note 7 or even the OnePlus One.
it does not get terribly warm or anything like that. i don't use 4K recording. so, not sure how warm the phone gets.
hope that answers your Q.

It will not heat in regular browsing and gaming.
Extended usage of camera beyond 15 or 20 minutes can make it warm and not heat.
I played real racing 3 for about half an hour and it didn't heat up at all.
The thing is people don't know the difference between heat and warm.
A device will get warm of extended usage and under extensive load. More so, if it's made of metal.

Seen that many times. People will say it's heating though it is just lukewarm.
I too had a oneplus 3. I did tons of review hunting and finally settled for Honor 8 pro. Been a month now almost, i can say i m impressed with the device. Good luck to u!!
If you have One Plus 3. You SHOULD'NT waste your money on Honor 8 Pro.
Trust me! There is ZERO difference in performance in day to day usage.
may be 10% better in Benchmarks.
Games actually perform better in OPO3 due do having an Adreno gpu and HD resolution.
Camera benefits from having more details due to 16 MP.
Battery full charge in 40 odd minutes compared to 2 hours plus on Honor 8 Pro.
H265 10 BIT HARDWARE DECODING in SD 820 compared to NADA in Kirin 960 (In short, h265 10 bit videos don't play).
So unless you're desperate for a card slot or IR blaster, there's little to NO reason for you to get Honor 8 Pro.

- Kirin 960 performs better than sd820 on op3 and some benchmarks shows it performs about the same as sd835.
- About the gpu yes, adreno a bit better. But dont worry, because later on oreo update u can change res to 1080p or 720p, so gaming performance will improve.
- Nicest design for honor 8 pro.
- Camera a lot better in honor 8 pro, bokeh effects, more details even its just 12mp compare to 16mp op3. Camera on op3 are noisy, check the comparison on website.
- Nice 2k screen on honor 8 pro.
- Battery a lot better than op3.
So apart from sd card slot and ir blaster, theres a lot things better in honor 8 pro.

I have used both the devices and have them in front of me. That's why. Real world usage. No differnece. Photo details more in Oneplus ३. Charging way faster. Plays more media formats via hardware acceleration. No point.

My young brother owns op3. Honor 8 pro camera wins all the way. The overall quality, dynamic range, contrast, sharpening, white balance, color accurate, low noise picture all wins on honor 8 pro side. Low lights picture also better than op3. Compare it with op3, pixel peeping shows op3 has some grainier and noisy photo, even my brother agrees with it. Oh did u try the wide aperture mode? Results are really nice. About the media format, u can always install mx player from play store. Sure battery charging a bit slow because of the big 4000mah capacity, but I dont mind that as it last longer in moderate usage.
Well everyone has their own opinion anyway, so heres mine. Chill.
As for me, yes, dont buy the honor 8 pro yet because honor v10 is coming out next month. Better wait for it, a lot improvement than honor 8 pro with the same price tag.

My young brother owns op3.
I only specifically mentioned about details in pictures due to having more mega pixel. No cure for that.
And I am talking about MX player only. Please try playing H265 10 bit file on it with a Honor 8 Pro.
Then do the same with Oneplus 3. You'll be surprised! One of them WONT play. One of them will play silky smooth.
Also see in settings/decoder which of the formats are hardware accelerated in both.
Kirin 960 might be raw power (Only CPU). But Snapdragon is like super refined and overall well rounded.
Performance wise no real world difference. It would be total waste to upgrade.
I am not giving my opinion but simply stating the facts as I've experienced; to help the OP make wise decision.
Hi all.
How is your Zenfone 5Z overall performance and battery life? I am thinking to buy either Zenfone 5z or Pocophone F1.

Zenfone 5z is better than Poco F1 in almost every aspect, except -
Battery life (Just about adequate - 5-6hr SOT),
Face Unlock (Camera based & less reliable)
Front Cam (Not good on 5z)
5z has better RAM management, lot of 'AI' stuff helping in faster app launches, battery management/charging (btw, charges from 0-100 in 1 hr) and so on...
5z is worth the extra cost considering all the extra features you're getting and is close to a flagship experience rather than budget phone with flagship processor in POCO.

5Z has Better build quality and display and software than poco f1.
I get like 6 Hours SOT , display is the best in its segment. Front Camera not good but can be improved using gcam port which i am using and there is significant difference. Updates also good. Just got one today that fixed some issues with youtube and notch hiding feature.
Good if you get it under 25k. Poco phone build is not premium but 5z is a flagship premium device in all aspects. But not upto iphone level.
display seems warmer
I have bought the device ,got the Indonesian made device in india , The display I got to know is warmer display though it is of good quality but white color is not pure white ,its always yellowish compared to my older moto g5s plus or any other , On googling got to know asus does this eith every zenfone ...! Everybody do a little white color comparison ,let we know about other china made devices .

Can easily adjust display according to your preferences by using adjusting color temperature and more in display settings.
Do you guys know where I can buy online because there is no Zenfone 5z available in the country I live in (Singapore)?
A small ( though we manage) hearing problem on calls
I forgot to mention previously ,while making a call the front speaker has slight plastic like irritating sound which I don't get in earphones and the loud speaker . I think its only my device maybe , and I don't want the device to be opened in the service center ,so will be adjusting myself with it , Though the device is much powerful and attractive in its way , this and the warmer display (can be tweaked but not getting that pure ) is the only minor drawbacks for me .
Works great no lag battery can get me through the work day. 5 to 7 hours sot depending on if I'm on LTE or wifi. Few small complaints...no option to turn on volte which Asus claims the phone supports and just wondering when we are going to get pie. Everything else is nearly flawless to me

how bad front camera is?

Well.. The quality of output from front camera is decent, but with less details compared to other front cams in this price range as they are equipped with 16/20 MP units. Then there's the software part - exposure, colour science etc feels relatively less pleasing (subjective though) to POCO F1 or most of the phones at this price, especially for the untrained eyes.
I have a strong feeling that Asus may improve the software part though OTA updates. Or else mods can make the most out of it (not experienced enough to give an expert opinion on this).
it's very fast and it can handle a lot. games run very smooth and there are really no big issues.
the only complaints I have are that the software buttons are not perfect and sometimes hide on their own and you have to swipe up from the bottom to get them again
also, i've had a problem with very bad gps reception, i tried everything, even a hard reset, but what fixed it was an ADB Sideload of the stock fw downloaded from asus website.
apart from that I have to say that i'm liking this phone a lot
Good morning
Xiaomi Mi Max 3 is certainly a top contender to be the best phone in terms of SOT.
I. Do You think MM3 SOT will be better than Redmi Note 4 (4100 mAh - small screen) and Moto E5 Plus (5000mAh also smaller screen)?
II) Did you experiance ant bugs in the sticj user interface?
III) What would you describe as pros and cons of this phone?
IV) What is your charging time when OFF from zero to 100% using box charger?
and finally do You think that's the best normal looking (not armored type) phone with the best SOT?
I. Perhaps worse, factoring in their specs (mostly screen)
II. I suppose you meant "stock". Really, no bugs except for some annoying things while using the Full Screen gestures:
when typing with a keyboard in one-handed mode it's very easy to hit the areas for the gestures, resulting in missed clicks around the edges of the screen (bottom for the home/recents gesture and sides for the back/switch app gesture).
also you might do it accidentally sometimes but I guess it's just something to get used to.
III. Pros:
Battery life is great for this phone factor
Has a headphone jack
Type-C
IR Blaster
Fast face unlock/fingerprint unlock
Comfortable yet still massive (depends on your hands)
Back camera array is pretty good and you can force camera2api with root.
Cons:
Speaker isn't the best OOB (you can tweak it with Viper though)
Front camera isn't very good
Before-mentioned gesture problems (you get used to it and learn to use it though)
Anti Rollback
IV. I can't really answer that because I don't use my device very hard so it ends up with like 60% at the end of the day if I used it more, also I don't like doing 0-100% charges as I'm anxious about wasting battery cycles, so hopefully someone can cover that instead of me.
Also the looks aren't really something that matters to me, but this phone looks really sleek to me so I guess that's a yes.
Hope I answered the things you asked ^^
1. Yes according to experience and gsmarena
2. Daily driver bug, Swiftkey keyboard resize, and perhaps a few untranslated chinese here and there. China rom 6gb 128gb model.
3. Pros: Roaming NETWORK BANDS, IR Blaster, headphone jack, batt, notchless screen, microsd
Cons: Speakers, rooting & roms, ymmv camera
4. Not sure rarely had to push it that far.. Keeping it above 60% at most times with slow charge to prolong battery longevity.
5. Energizers 16000mah phone will beat this phone.
Overall i picked this for the superior batt, near flagship roaming bands, notchless screen, plus jack and ir, all for a reasonable price.
CPU is just the right balance for lagfree use and batt efficiency. I don't game so GPU power was never what I was looking for.

You've earned your 3rd Thanks button acction!
Absolutely fantastic answer(s)!
Please help me out with these:
1. Very few people understand how important for the phone's ergonomics is the activation of letters, functions or gestures using the "holding hand". It can drive the user nuts.
You know your stuff very well bro.
2. Do You think the 1. will appear also when using 2 hands?
3. I never use use gestures so will the 1) issue be a problem for me?
4. Anti Rollback - what do you mean by this?
5. If your day ends with 60% why don't you let your next day end up in 20%?
6. Does 0%-100% charges waste battery? Some people say it's good for the battery cause it forms and calibrates it.
7. Are You worried about wasting battery cycles because of potential selling of the phone?

CPU is just the right balance for lagfree use and batt efficiency. I don't game so GPU power was never what I was looking for.

that's the 40th Thanks button for you - THANK YOU!!!
1. "Cons: (....) roms, tymmv camera" - can you be more specific? What did You have in mind?
2. 60% why not 20% and..... - The same question as above.
3. "near flagship roaming bands" - can you be more specific? What did You have in mind?
4 "Daily driver bug, Swiftkey keyboard resize" - can you be more specific? What did You have in mind?
Sorry for my bad understanding of English.
Roms: some people would like more custom rom developments to be made available on xda.
Camera: some people think the camera isn't good enough
60% battery: this is best for your phone according to many experts online. The lower your battery level, the more strain there is on the battery to maintain a stable power output. Think of it like collecting water from a well; easy when its full, and harder and harder when it starts to run dry.
Also, heat is the no. 1 enemy of your battery. Quick charge produces more heat. So does car windshield phone holders as you're literally cooking the phone under the sun (i use an air cond vent holder)
Network bands: number of 4G LTE Channels the phone support. More than your average budget phone. LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800), 34(2000), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500), TDSCDMA, CDMA.
Swiftkey bug: https://support.swiftkey.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001432823-Keyboard-sizing-issues
Energizer phone: Was launched but in low quantity. They are launching a 18000mah model soon. https://www.gsmarena.com/energizer_...h_an_18000mah_battery_and_more-news-35221.php

I clicked the thanks button, that's now 41st thanks point for you - THANK YOU!
1. Does the 60% rule apply also to othe phones/models/brands?
2. Is it better to turn off the fast charge to give the battery more life?
3.that Energizergot got canceled
4. Is this bug a very irritating issue?
5. Does it exist in Mi Max 2?
Hi,
1. I get 14h Sot over 6 days from 100 to 0. Normal use without gaming. Xiaomi.eu Rom
2. No bugs for me - runs great
3. Pros: big screen, great batterie, good camera with gcam, headphone jack, fullscreen gestures, price
Cons: None for me
4. In general I load the phone from 30 to 80 in 90mins with non quick charge charger. 0 to 100 with qc I think it is little over 2 hours.

THANK YOU!!! - +1 thanks point for You
1. 6 days of SOT mmmm that's pure melody. Can You specify more what do You do under your SOT
4. What do You prefer? charging the phone from 30% to 80% or from 0%-100%? Is it fifty-fifty? or do you have a preference for example to charge from zero to 100%? What is the ratio of charging from 30% to 80% to from 0% to 100%? Do You believe and perforem the method of prolonging battery life that is about not discharching the phone below a few tens of % (like 60%-20%)?
5. Is normal charger the one from the phone box? Does the fast charger has to be bouguht sepretly and does it require a special USB cable or normal?
6. Did MM3ax ever lagged or got frozen?
I don`t get 6days of sot. I have 14 hours sot within 6 days standby. Sot is mostly surfing, texting, mails, youtube, news . Some navigation and photos.
Yes, charging from 30 to 80 will hopefully exceed batterie life. It is about lithium ion batterie physics.
Qc charger comes with the phone. I use a different charger with a little lesser output. Mostly because this one fits german sockets other than the original chinese one.
No lags and freezes for me.

THESE Are the OLD photos NOT in English dude!!!
7 hours screen time from 100 to 80% I didn't see that on any other phone no matter the usage. On this case I was almost always on fly mode with wifi on and I was browsing and watching YouTube.
