Bought this phone from Croma in exchange of my old mobile for 25, 500.At this price, this is one of the best smartphones available in the market.You may think HTC 820 costs 22000 but it doesn’t give you full HD screen.I was also considering LG G3 but it’s design is not great and camera is poorer. The major advantages of this phone are:
1.Stunning Design-I have the champagne gold colour n it looks beautiful.Every bit of it!
2.Awesome front and back camera.
3.Full HD display
4.Fantastic keyboard-its the best I have used so far
5.Very Responsive Touch
6.Good browsing experience
7.I don’t play a lot of games but the ones that I play like Stick Cricket, Real cricket 14 and Real Racing play without lags.
8.Have faced no heating issues at all
9.Awesome music player
10.And the best feature - Battery lasts 2 days If you enable power saving mode.Also comes with ultra power saving mode which gives standby time of upto 10 days.good feature to use during travel
The touch wiz UI used by Samsung has a lot of features to offer a wonderful customer experience.I am very happy with the product.
The only cons I found is that when you place a call on loudspeaker the volume is low and the alarm doesn’t have the Rooster alarm tone.People are comparing this to Note 4.but honestly how many people will use all the features offered in Note 4 like the heart rate sensor.This phone has all the features that we need for everyday use -The best part is the design.
UPDATE - there’s some heating after playing games for awhile, To counter this, I downloaded Cooler Master app from Google play.The phone cools down in 3-4 minutes after you stop playing games.One word of advice to prospective buyers - though the phone looks stunning, it seems a bit fragile to me.You need to take good care as the metal frame may be damaged in case you drop it.
Update after 3 months - My charging adapter stopped working due to a short circuit.however the service center promptly replaced it as soon as I visited them.
