Consistency is key!

Using Echo Lockscreen and Go Launcher with Moonshine icons on the Infinix.

On the left is an iPhone 5s and on the right an Infinix Zero 2! See what I mean when I say consistency?

Suggest an Android phone in range of 12-14 ? Will be used for some basic stuff like whatsapp, fb, skype, sygic, etc. 2gb ram n nice battery is mandatory.

Can be new or used, for now I have shortlisted Samsung S4, LG G2, Huawei honor 4C (new).

It'll be my first Huawei if I get it so I need some reviews from 4C owners and its plastic or metal body?

Get S4.
Will be hard to find in 12-14 though.

G2 is good, but the American kits are a real PITA to use and update.

G2 n S4 both r old models so maybe difficult to find good pieces that's why I am looking for new ones too. I was also thinking about nexus 5 but it's also out of range.

Btw currently m using LG G3 Verizon and it doesn't seem to be PITA at all, in fact I like it. Although it's GPS reception is weak as compared to Samsung phones.

Kindly share battery performance of G3. I'm gonna buy a new phone in near future and I'm confused between G3, G4, Z2 & Z3.

Battery performance is actually dependent on battery itself. The battery I got with this phone was good for few days and then dropped backup to about 4 hours SOT. I bought it from my friend's shop so got it's battery replaced and now it gives SOT of about 6+ hours which is nice I think. On normal use it easily lasts 1.5 days.

Z3 > Z2 > G4 > G3

If I was given an option I would buy Z2 because Z3 and Z2 are almost identical but Z2 is cheaper.

I'm too thinking the same. The price difference of almost 10k without any extraordinary improvement is a major concern. Also currently I'm Xperia user and tilted towards Sony products.
I guess that Z2 will meet my requirements.
An online vendor is selling it for 39k. Do you think that this price is ok?

Price is very reasonable but make sure 4G support. There are two variants.

It is 3G variant. But the disappointing thing is that it has white color.....

So today noon received my infinix hot note pro so far my experience is going great as compared to my ex phone huawei honor 3c. This phone is fairly fast at least from honor 3c screen is good to and so built quality but camera is bit disappointing but it has OIS which comes in high end phones. And the battery has impressed my alot as I m using it from 8:30pm till I m writing this review I have 67% left with me with no power savings mode.
Overall in this price its worth it.

If you are not going to use 4G then its OK. White looks better than black on Z2.

What about battery? Strong enough to last 1-1.5 day on normal use?

Only if it wasn't such a big risk to use an iPhone out and about in Karachi.
Since I was using the 535 as my everyday phone I needed Snapchat and it didn't even offer that.
They've delayed WP10 now with no confirmed date. Saying early 2016. I understand that it's best to get rid of the bugs before release but it now feels like by the time it comes out it'll already be outdated.

Microsoft have been too lazy in this Windows 10 mobile thing, even when they have very limited models to deal with.

They should have most popular apps in their store atleast. Even Firefox browser is missing and the UC browser it has is very basic. Windows phone have ZERO hope for survival until they develop atleast most popular apps.

I read somewhere that Microsoft will continue mainstream support of W10 mobile till January 2018 and after that it will only release security patches. So it won't get outdated very easily.

God, the A series are crap! I've been ranting about mine in this thread ever since I bought it, an A328. It's rooted, Kitkat'd, and have expanded the ROM to 11GB or so, but the hardware is garbage. The phone's response time is sluggish, the loud speaker went kaput within the first few months, the ear peice is on it's last leg, the camera is crap, the vibrator either works or goes dead, have to bring the vibrator back to life a couple times a day via a vibrate test app, battery is going kaput real fast (no over-heating issues), the charging pin is on it's way out, the music quality is utter utter bullcrap, oh yea it also wouldn't accept just any 3.5mm jack for the earphones, only older model earphones work, all in all, disappointing! And I'm the kinda guy who takes care of his things, if I want to put my phone on say a table, I would first place a peice of paper there and then rest my phone on that, so you can imagine how I use it. I'm waiting for it to die so I can get an Infinix.

Not all Lenovos are bad. Some of the A series phones had similar type of complaints in past. Most Lenovos are actually very good and stable. I asked few of my friends living abroad and they said Lenovos are very common there and they are very reliable in most cases.

Lenovo acquired IBM PC division and even acquired Motorola from Google. It is one of the top 10 smartphone brands.

Battery is one of the most strong points of Z2, easily 2 days on normal usage.
