    Nice phone, if you don't care the camera. Otherwise it is a perfect one. I had this one for 1 month, changed to a iPhone se due to the slow focus camera

      A friend of mine have this and camera is actually pretty good, specially low light performance with f/1.8 aperture. And OIS works great too.

          @CVonC:

          Not at all. I ran a commerical flash memory diag on my Moto X Pure on day one (2015) and day of decommision in May 2017 and it showed serious degradation.
          It doesn't take long, even with good wear levelling to reduce the memory's performance enough to be noticable, and then annoying.

  • CVonC on 29/07/2017 - 23:27

    why is the black so much more expensive? :(

    • sydracing on 29/07/2017 - 23:48
      +1

      This production line has been canceled after Lenovo bought Moto. So now only Moto brand left, no more Zuk. Since the beginning of Zuk Z2, Lenovo didn't make too many blacks. My one was white as well. With Chinese Rom, followed the instructions to change language to English, but still not 100% English.

      • garage sale on 30/07/2017 - 07:32

        makes sense to streamline production as both brands are in the same price bracket, and the moto have band 28 so can sell globally . last week when my moto x flashed to android 7 now says moto but lenovo when it boots. So many more phones with full english support 1080p screen and band 28 available now .for under $400 …. not like 2 years ago when you got a xiaomi and had to reflash.

        https://www.gizmochina.com/2017/07/01/zuk-brand-dead-ceo-hin…

        There's reports in China that ZUK may not be totally "dead" and some info about the Z3 are out. Not sure how real the "leak" is though since with those specs (SD835/6GB), edge to edge screens and all will not be cheap to manufacture. It will end up being a full premium phone as opposed to "lets cut a premium phone down to a cheap mid range price".

    • presentv on 30/07/2017 - 05:57

      How about Mi5s. Its camera is absolutely better than these two.

    • liquornoodlescabbage on 30/07/2017 - 13:32

      Mi5.
      Xiaomi phones are a lot more trusted, the MIUI rom is very nice and battery efficient. And had a massive community behind it, plenty of custom ROMs for your choosing.

      • WinstonWithAY on 30/07/2017 - 13:39

        The build quality is poor though. Check out JerryRigEverything's bend test on it

        • liquornoodlescabbage on 30/07/2017 - 13:41

      no 6gb ram isn't necessary but it helps to stand out from all the 3gb phones ….. not sure what people,are running with 6gb that wouldn't be chewing up,the batteries ……. not even windows 10 and word and excel running takes up 6gb.

      I hear battery life on the S6 leaves a lot to be desired. Best to watch reviews on YouTube first.

    • garage sale on 30/07/2017 - 07:38

      probably better support for updates on samsung and also has band 28 and full english support ……

      • Wonderfool on 30/07/2017 - 07:43

        S6 is almost 3 years old. Even if there is update, there's only a few months left.

      • freefall101 on 30/07/2017 - 10:52

        Samsung? Update support? The Z2 Pro received 7.0 months before my S7 did… S6 is probably ending on 7.0, whereas there's talk about the Z2 Pro getting 7.1.

        English support and band 28, on the other hand, are pretty good reasons to stick with the S6. Additionally warranty support from Samsung is always pretty good, my S7 had issues, walked into the store, walked out with a totally different phone, no hassles. Hard to do that with a Lenovo.

  • nickl1986 on 30/07/2017 - 07:21

    Would this phone be good on the aldi network (Telstra reseller) I just have seen a lot of comments about band 28 and a bit confused… Do all towers operate on multiple bands and you shift between when the network is congested or do they only operate on the one hand so your phone used a tower further away?

    • garage sale on 30/07/2017 - 07:45
      +1

      towers have multiple bands but not all bands ……. and the phone doesn't switch at times of congestion it will connect via the best signal and stick with it. so band 28 first choice if phone and tower support , if not then it picks next best.

      if you have one of the newer phones they will use 2 bands for data so ultra fast downloads ….. faster than nbn copper in many instances.

      you can get utilities that show the tower and bands you connect to so you can optimise for where you live and travel patterns …. eg what bands do,i get on my trip to work and why the speed varies or if you use at home if you don't have wired broadband at home.

      Hey Kaboda,

      I'm a new users but I wanted to ask what's the advantages of unlocking the bootloader and installing the AICP rom? Any risk of it going bad etc?

      • xoom on 30/07/2017 - 22:22

        Installing custom roms are not without their risks. You could brick your device if you don't know what you're doing.

        • kakarot123 on 30/07/2017 - 23:20

          Thanks xoom.
          I've never rooted or modified my phones (I'm not even sure what the advantages anda ll are) so I'll just leave it at that :)

      • Kaboda on 31/07/2017 - 07:53

        My phone was the international version with no updates. I used it for six months and it got to the point that it the CPU was overheating all the time and the battery drain and life was horrendous.

        I reset it a few times then decided to switch the rom all together.

        I'd likely recommend it just from my experience.

        JD (now known as Joybuy) is actually a banned store on Ozbargain due to sockpuppeting. Both the previous website and the current website are in the red - hence no deals are posted.

        Sockpuppeting is shady business. Whether this extends to how the whole business operates is for you to determine. I have bought a couple of things from JD in the past and had no problems but it is up to you whether you trust them with a $300 purchase.
