.... though this is a mid range phone, the battery capacity should have been stepped up a bit
ReplyDeleteAs the OP had stated that two phones were launched(R1 and R1 plus), these are compact, budget Android phones that Sony claims are “designed for Indian lifestyle” and “designed to excite the new Indian”, whatever that means.
ReplyDeleteCould you please confirm if actually the phone under review is running on Android 7 or it's running on Android 8, Oreo
ReplyDeleteWell nice phone package with two variant of Internal memory which are the 32 GB, 3 GB RAM and the 16 GB, 2 GB RAM type
ReplyDeleteThe chipset and the operating system is okay.
ReplyDeleteHope it receives system upgrade in future.
Not too happy with the phone because its just limited to a Battery:Capacity of 2620mAh
gush it not just okay at all
It also lack the latest trends which is the finger capturing features..
ReplyDeleteOuch... They would have seat down to settle down and try to know what the market is all about before coming up with this..
Am always impressed with their cameras but this one battery don spoil everything o
They should learn from Nokia and Samsung although Samsung dey try but battery issue na Mata for another day..
ReplyDeleteThanks wizytechs
The specs are good
ReplyDeleteThe battery is to low
ReplyDeleteWell they have try....
ReplyDeleteThanks wizy
the specs are well crafted but the price tag is perfectly okay
ReplyDeleteall specs in the phone are okay except the battery.. its very poor... it cant last up to 2days sef
ReplyDeletethanks fr the update sir
ReplyDeleteI love the device,its just okay.
ReplyDeleteComing to the only issue i pin point out here is the battery capacity,i don't know the big deal in producing a strong battery for this new device.
Anyway will skip that.
Thanks for updating us
ReplyDeleteThanks for updating us
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update
ReplyDeleteMost Nigerians including my humble self will stop at nothing to complain about the battery capacity of some phones
ReplyDeleteBattery capacity is arguably one of the outstanding features a geek look out for when purchasing a new smartphone because without the battery, everything on the phone is useless; in fact, it is as useless as a brick in your hands and smartphone manufacturers has noticed this.
