did any one tried zte z17s?is it good? - ZTE Nubia Z17 Questions & Answers

i wanna buy the new zte z17s phone
is it good?
camera?
sound?
screen?
performance?
battary?

Yes I have bought it.
In comparism with Mix 2 by Xiaomi...Nubia is faster, the camera is better and the recorded sound is better as well. On the other hand the video stabilisation, speakers, battery and fingerprint reader is better on Xiaomi.
What I love on Z17s is its features. You can do many things such as swiping between apps, closing apps, sliding down and up to maximaze or minimze brightness and many other things which I really miss on Xiaomi and other brands.
Antutu score of my 8/128 is about 180k. I think there is not a better device on the market in terms of performance. The camera could be a little bit better but otherwise, a really great phone!

maybe someone is still interested in this device...it is possible to install the google camera mod on the z17s. Version v5.1.018 modded by sculshady works very well.

Best camera app for le pro 3?

Hello,
i am a bit dissapointed of the camera. Quality of pictures are even worser than the quality of my oneplus one.. I dont know why, but is there a app which is especially good with le pro 3?
Which gives the best picture quality?
Thank you.
try google camera, but mine is okay, esp if you browse it on the computer and you'll see the detail talking about the built in APP
In the Telegram group, people recommend Cameringo, A Better Camera, Snap Camera
Stay away from Open Camera as it may hardware-brick your device.
Yes i tried cameringo, its OK but not that good.

I just bought "A Better Camera". Seems solid so far. A little confusing at first, but the developer seems to keep it updated. Snap Camera has not been updated in quite some time, and is much more expensive.

Feedback?
I use footej camera and cameringo for simple editing. Actually i dont notice significant quality difference compared to stock leeco camera. Its just feature/ease of use preference.

OnePlus 5 Worth it

With the whole Jelly Scrolling effect with the 1+5, is it worth to get it at the moment or go for another phone
lg is trash
not lg at least.. a comparable model would be xiaomi mi 6..
I have seen many youtube videos where , OP5 easily beats Iphone and Mi6 in speed test. Apart from that, the camera is too good and if not the best but equal to iphone camera.
yes OIS is one thing lacking and it has impacted a lot.

Mine has no jelly effect. It is fast, slim, and works very well. The camera is meh, but I honestly don't care as I rarely take photos. I just want a beast of a performer with a (near) stock UI, great battery life, and that's what the 5 is. That I can root/ROM it easily is a bonus.
:laugh:
Is it worth it? Yes. The only other phone I would consider is the G6, but you take a hit on battery and performance. but it sure does look pretty.
Got mine yesterday, intended as potential replacement for my S8.
So far I am pretty happy with everything, fast, fluid, good handling - more impressions will come over time....
One thing that suprised me was, after all the discussions about the camera quality, a comparison of some shots between the S8 and the OP5 (with HQ-mode and latest firmware) - from my impression they are pretty close., and that was in a rather dim room. Will make more shots to compare for different kind of situations.
My take is: its worth it ! No longer a big bargain like the previous OP-phones but still a good deal !

Oneplus 5 w/ Google Camera vs. Stock Galaxy S8+ camera- which is better?

So I currently have a Galaxy S8+, and have been eyeing the OP5, specifically the 8gb variant. Mainly because the battery life on my Galaxy has gotten to be pretty bad, and it's starting to lag/stutter more and more frequently. I know the stock OP5 camera needs some major work, but i was wondering how good the OP5 camera with the Google Camera port is compared to the camera on the GS8+?

Well apparently, the camera is complete crap in low light after the 4.5.10 update.
From most of the reviews it was crap in low light since launch....
Don;t use camera that much so no idea... Wasn't what attracted me to it, 8gb ram was....

Fair enough. The camera is pretty important to me, but having a phone that doesn't lag is also pretty important.

Post processing is a joke, in manual mode the OP5 can take excellent shots. Things could get better as soon as Oneplus hires someone with knowledge about photography. For example, in lowlight it will switch to ISO 9600, in manual mode I get a great shot with ISO 800, you can imagine what a picture looks like with ISO 9600...

As you say, apparently...For me, I actually have the 8 g ram version and I am running the latest OOS, the quality of the picture is quite good for me whether in low light or good light. That's the best phone I ever have. I am satisfied with the phone in every aspect. I see no downside for me. I may be blind

does your v20 lag already? this phone is pretty solid.
Op5 camera is very good, specially for the price. See youtube reviews, they compare the camera with iphone 7+, g6, s8, etc. Imho, this is more than acceptable for a small sensor camera.
on gsmarena, you can see many test.
people on xda *****ing the camera because they must be kind of pissed about the ''clearer photo'' op marketing, and at the end, the camera is not the top one on the market.
I personally think the camera can hold its own against the other phones. Especially in manual mode. I do a lot of sunset pictures and they comes out good. However, I think if TouchWiz was more bearable, and if it was easily rootable (I use a lot of apps that requires root) I'd have gotten a s8 instead.
I prevously had the S8+, I now have 8gb oneplus 5, camera quality is about the without any noticeable difference, plus you get the portrait mode. Battery life is better, ram management is better, speed is better, only thing i miss the the bezzeless display.

Mi A1: could it be the best choice for a budget phone?

Hi everyone.
I'm looking for a new phone that could be solid and valuable for everyday use, but I have a budget limit of 250 $. I'll certainly buy a top of the line device later but, since my needs are really basic, I prefer to have a cheaper phone along this period, and change it without too many worries once I'll have the chance.
The Mi A1 seems really promising, but I also read mixed thoughts about it. I mainly use the phone for social apps, light gaming and I like to do a lot of photos, but always intended for social use. I'll try to summarize all my doubts:
1) the update plan: A1 is an Android One device. Can I expect a reasonable amount of updates compared to other phones or other devices by Xiaomi with Miui? I'd really hate to buy a phone that will be "dead" (under the updates point of view) soon.
2) Camera: as I said before, I use the camera a lot. I read that A1 allows to take good photos for its price range. The only cons is the quality of the camera under low-light conditions. Beside this, does it have a good camera? Are its limits solvable with updates or are they hardware limits?
3) Front Camera: is it good? I watched some tests, and I noticed it can make good selfies, but I'd like some other feedbacks. Is the front camera good, even if it only is a 5 mp?
So, the final question: do you recommend this phone according to my budget? Are there better phones around with better camera and performance?
As far as I know, A1 is a best buy, since it's difficult to reach the same overall quality price ratio at that price. Other phones on the same price range have better cameras, but worse performances, or they won't get updates anymore. I'd like some other feedbacks before deciding.
Thanks in advance!
as from experience, value for money, YES the MiA1 provide that kan of leverage.. and without NFC though... just to keep that in mind
the front facing camera with 5MP sensor is horrible.. and the rear facing ones, in outdoor light it is great but in low light it doesn't count much in sattisfaction
BUT for the camera purpose, you could root the device with magisk then sideload GCam HDR+ for a better an awesome results :victory: the hardware has many potential, but the software side it's provided by xiaomi themselves and until this day no software update is present..
wait for this years release of phones including note 5, moto g6 play etc. They will have better processor, oreo out of the box( meaning they will have Project Treble). Even with Snapdragon 630 you will get bluetooth 5.0.

That's a really bad news, since the front camera is one of my priorities I was sure it was good, the quality of the shots I found online was more than average :crying:

That's a really good advice. Thanks. I guess I have to find a really cheap phone that allows me to survive until some interesting devices come out.

well it might be good..
but if you wanted the best quality in front facing camera I guess you have to look elsewhere and streching your budget a bit to strive fort that quality.. at least a minimal of 8 MP or above for the front camera
and if you still wanted the MiA1, you could side load GCam HDR+ after rooting it... and another one, Portrait cam if I'm not mistaken.. on the hardware side it's plausable, but then on the software side xiaomi hasn't publish any cam app update (yet)

I know, a 8 mp camera would be a sensible improvement, but my low budget limit is due to the fact that it will be only a temporary device, until the moment I'll buy a top-of-the-line smartphone later.
I just need a reliable phone for this period, capable of doing almost everything in an acceptable way.
This explains my question. Is the front camera so horrible? I was pretty satisfied with my iphone 5 front camera, which is only a 1,2 MP. I doubt the shots of a 2017 phone could be worse than those ones
It's not so much the MP that really matters, it's the processing and the sensor. In good lighting, the front camera is not bad. In lower lighting, it makes everyone look like a wax figure (bad processing + high ISO + heavy noise reduction).

That's true. It's undeniable, the pics under low-light conditions are really insufficient. I clearly noticed this watching the various samples around. I could be wrong, but it's a common problem for low budget phones, so there're not many choices within that range of price.
I have another doubt, speaking of xiaomi phones. How is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x, compared with A1 or other low budget phones? Could it be a valid alternative?
The camera is a shocker and the android one program a joke. Don't even consider it.
Wait.
Value for money.. Yes.. considering the cost to hardware ratio definitely VFM..
Updates is under Mi.. Dont fall for the android one tag.. Buggy os, poor updates.. Almost 5 months and they couldn't solve the contact linking issue..
Back camera takes good pics in good lighting condition.. Front camera module is same as that of Redmi note 4, i've read.. Only problems most pics don't look natural..
Loudspeakers actually loud.. I can hear ringtones for once..
Havent felt audio is that great.. havent experienced white noise issue..
Batterys good..
The biggest letback of the device is its os.. Very poorly developed.. Lots of bugs.. I've had more than 5 redmi devices.. The software experience was solid.. But here its pathetic & very frustrating.. U often get the feeling u r running a WIP custom rom.. So much potential in the phone & very much wasted.. This is the most frustrating device i have used till date.. So this is one device i won't recommend..
as an owner of mia1 , now i would have bought the new nokia 6 (2018) , xiomi is a total disaster with software, i got mia1 thinking google would take care of the software but that would have been to good to be true

i bought a1 in october and got about 15 updates .
Best choice?
Yes and no.
Some like it some hate it.
I bought it, because it's dirt cheap and has all I need.Clean android(with mi camera and remote), good battery, dual sim, nice design.If you like that and don't want to spend money on pixel, this is a poor man pixel.
If you don't like clean android, it's not for you.
I optimised it, have zero bugs, don't have issues with hissing or screen, or reboots or whatever is reported here.
But others here are reporting that they have bugs.So there might be quality control issues.You can end up with a good unit, or with a bad one.
Bad thing is no kernel source yet, though it's xiaomi, they always delay that for months, but there was a rumour that they will release it till the end of january.We'll see.As a user point of view, not a big deal...but as a developer, it's a crap.
So if you are a developer, it's not for you.
As for updates, they are regular, don't know what others had before, but, just like nexus/pixel line(although it gets updates days after them and it is not on 8.1 yet) it will be covered for 2 years with updates and 3 with security patches.
So...no one can help you with that, but you.If you can, check it in a store, to see if you like it or not.

I have the phone for about a month now and the performance is great. Since MIUI has pretty slow animations I turned them down a little in the developer options. Camera is also great especially for the price. It's even better when you are using the Gcam port especially in low light. If you are planing to use Android Auto though then forget it. It doesn't work with this phone and nobody knows when or if Xiaomi will fix it.
Superb phone better than other crap
Ok great! Thanks guys!
Don't buy this phone. It is too heavy, camera is ****.
The camera is great, I don't know what this above guy is talking about.

Yes, camera is bad in low light conditions, take a closer look at details on picture taken at night.
Why people complain about a budget phone's camera is beyond me. Go buy a Note 10+ then.
Good phone with decent camera which can be improved upon a lot by GCAM, great battery life with a very efficient processor. Oh and the display is pretty amazing as well
Gcam is better for a low light if it is a problem for a keicaM80.
