Without using safe mode, you will NEVER find the battery drain issues easily.

Before sleeping, boot the device in safe mode and then check the battery drain in the morning.

You NEED to know if the battery drain is from "user installed apps" or "system apps" first, which is only possible by using safe mode.

...and how to go in safe mode?

Turn off the device.

Turn it on and as soon as it starts, press and hold "volume down" key until the phone fully boots up till lockscreen.

Safe mode will be written on the bottom left side of the screen.

If this doesn't work, long press the "power off" until it shows reboot to safe mode.

There must be something for this option in "language and input settings" and keyboard settings.

You can use Google keyboard from play store and disable its auto predictions. Its a very good keyboard.

SwiftKey predictions cannot be turned off btw. I think you are using that one.

What exactly is battery standby time?

What exactly is battery standby time?

Install Gsam battery monitor. It's a must have app.

It records all the important stuff about battery, phone usage, standby and average screen on time and average battery timings.

I recently bought Lenovo P70 for 20,600 Rs. A lot of online shops still are selling it for 22k+. Dont buy from them.

I would say best phone you could buy in 20,000. It's very snappy, touch has no lag. Only bad thing about it is camera, apparently its 13MP, but does work like a 2MP. Rest everything is great.

I had P70 for few days too. Its a great phone. Camera is good, not that bad atleast.

Whenever camera is not working satisfactorily, clean the camera lens with a micro fiber cloth. Oily fingerprints on lens cause poor quality photos in most cases.

Hey experts , I want to buy a smartphone and my budget is 30k.
My requirements are Good Camera (both front & back), bigger RAM & Good Battery timings
Now a days, I am using Iphone 4 (simple) and its camera is below than average for me but on the other hand, I am really impressed by its battery timings
Now suggest me any Good Smart phone, with my requirements keeping in mind

In imported models, you can look for,

1+X (OnePlus X), an amazing budget phone.

In official,

J7 is also not bad option, but it has just 1.5GB RAM, no autobrightness sensor or even a compass!. Performance is very good though, but responsiveness is not very impressive. Its app opening is comparatively slower, but battery timings are excellent.

For serious camera performance, get a used flagship like LG G3 or Galaxy S5.

I have S5 and it's camera sucks. One of the worst camera's I have ever used.

No such issues with z10. My opinion will be not to buy infinixes and different Chinese named devices Which are not having marketing channels and companies in paki. Atleast Q is deeply penetrated in the market. Go for lenovo - that is excellent too. You will not regret neither q10 nor lenovo..I have used both and currently having both of these brands.

Infinix is better as compared to Qmobile, Qmobile phones are rebranded and you will hardly recieved any updates on them (OTA), On the other hand Infinix is very good in providing OTA updates time to time. And they also have a forum where you can sort things out in case of any issue while in case of qmobile there are so many phones the support is not possible.

Point was that atleast we have full sales support and warranty availability as the company is deep rooted in paki.

Have yoy ever try to read there warranty terms and conditions [emoji14] they don't cover most of the important parts of the phone in warranty, your z10 has amoled screen i think if its dies on you they will not replaced it for you and amoled screens are hell expensive might be 50 to 60% of original cost of the phone.[emoji14]

No company in the world gives warranty of lcds, etc. My samsung led tv 40 inch still under warranty had its
Screen half damaged (not physical damage or dent) and there is no warranty for it...
