I have been using this phone for almost 2.5 yrs now and I tell you guys I’m highly satisfied with the product. It’s the first time that Google has created a beast of a phone. It looks pretty, has a sharp display, fairly good audio and has a very rich feel.
Pros: -
> Processor. It’s beast. It’s powerful enough to play any game and it’ll play it with ease. Plays 1080p web-dl hevc format like anything.
> RAM - 2GB of RAM that never lets your phone to hang or freeze. Open multiple applications at once and still the phone will work smoothly.
> Smoothest Android phone so far in budget. Even today after more than 2 years of its launch the phone still gives the smoothest Android experience so trust me you’ll enjoy using it.
> Storage - I have a 32gb version which gives me 26gb of personal storage space which is ample.
> Full HD 1080p 5 screen with gorilla glass which gives very sharp and crisp images and a sturdy screen that doesn’t break that easily and is also scratch resistant.
> Spill proof. Sealed back cover provides spill proofing.
> Camera - has 8MP rear camera which works pretty fine in good lighting condition and fairly good in low lighting condition. I don’t use flash as it messes with natural colors.
> Purely Google experience. No bloatwares are there on the device and gives you the best Android experience.
> Early updates - device comes with KitKat installed which can be updated to marshmallow( personal advice don’t update it to it, lollipop is best, marshmallow has many problems which might hinder your perfect Android experience)
Cons: -
> Battery - 2300mah. Gives about 6-8 hrs on average usage though I’ve burned it in just 2.5 hrs with wifi and asphalt 8 on bluetooth speakers and downloading in background: p
> Heating - with a giant processor, heating is bound to come but it’s not like you can cook chapati on it. Bearable heat
> Front camera - it’s the only thing that I don’t like about this phone. 1.3MP Camera is very minimum and picture quality is not so great looking at the selfie trend going on these days. Though for video calling it works pretty fine.
In short since after purchasing this phone, my computer usage has been reduced considerably considering I can connect my 1 TB dell HDD with the phone( yes lollipop has OTG support, another reason to not to upgrade to marshmallow which has an OTG support but it changes the device’s format) .
If you are planning on purchasing this product then I would say don’t hesitate and rethink, it’s the best in this price range that you’ll get. I got it for 34K but now the prices have dropped very much.
This phone is still compared to the latest flagship phones of other brand thus proving the standard this phone has set.
