Cell Phones Dedicated Discussion (Market Prices/ Troubleshooting/ Advice/ Recommendations)

Charge it with fast charger, preferably 2A charger atleast for few hours and turn it on while plugged to charger. Avoid fully draining batteries, it's bad for batteries, as well as cause similar issues.

If its turning on with fast charger plugged in and turns off when you unplug the charger, hopefully weak battery might need replacement, since its already very old model.

Otherwise, it could be power IC related issue.

Actually my father was using this phone, he went to shop and that shop guy tried to start a phone with the help of jhatka to battery but that didnt work, now should i go to mechanic and if yes then mention the name of that bluearea famous shop guy who is well skilled, ill go there ask him is it good to invest some pennys on old phone or should i go for new one?

So? Whats the update?

Ah! I almost forgot to update...! Busy life to blame...!

Anyhow, I didn't went to the shop, simply because I was a little skeptical about his claims as Daraz's Dealer, as Daraz has no retail shops anywhere in Pakistan and are solely online retailers.

Secondly, I did a little more research about That AndroidOne from General Mobile and found GM's camera to be AWFUL...!!! Thanks to Mr. @zia1288 for pointing this out and making me looking up for it...! Thirdly, they've no proper procedure for warranty claim... And fourthly, accessories are pretty much non-existent...

So, I did a slight more 're-search' (Yes, when you get old, you look into everything as deeply as possible. With age comes wisdom, after all...!!!)...

Anyhow, I looked up almost all the phones in 14-16 Grands range... I thought about Qmobile Noir J7 (Re-branded Gionee P7 Max) but was put-off by its 32-Bit 'vintage' Hardware and the asking price was kinda steep... Then I looked up Samsung Galaxy J3 and didn't like its pathetic Cortex-A7 32-Bit cores and the garbage Chinese Spreadtrum SoC you might find in 5,000 Rupees Qmobiles and hence the steep asking price of 19,000 Rupees... Looked up Huawei Y5II and was also put-off by its 32-Bit Hardware, garbage A7s and just a Gig of RAM. Then I looked up Qmobile J5 (Re-branded Gionee P5L) but I didn't like its low-end 64-Bit Mediatek SoC at such a price and the tiny battery and plastic construction was icing on the cake...

I wasn't satisfied... I was looking for MORE...! More for less...!

And then; I stumbled upon THIS!!!

No... I know, its an iPhone 'wannabe', but I don't mind as long as the hardware is right and the software is well optimized...!

I absolutely LOVE its metal uni-body construction, Snapdragon 410 SoC, 2GB of RAM, 2,630mAh Battery, Gorilla Glass 4, thin bezels and FANTASTIC CAMERAS. As a matter of fact, Oppo is basically a company with high emphasis on quality optics...

And its just 2,000 Rupees more than General Mobile 4G @ 16,500/-.

Now, I haven't bought it YET, I'm still "researching", but I guess its pretty much it...

Good Day!

I highly doubt that they will repair Xiaomi. Best take it to Singapore Plaza.

Blue Area people do not take older phones repairing seriously.

EverythingApplePro is a good YouTube channel for Apple products info.

The guy mostly tells both sides of the coin, pros and cons.

He praises Apple products a lot, but also mentions the downsides of them, which most YouTube Apple Fanboys 'forget' to mention.

$4300 MacBook awful gaming performance video. Most Apple fans do not even know that they suck at gaming big time.

Yeah know the features of Plus. Actually i have used iPhone 6 Plus for 8 month but i always get irritated with its size.

[zuhaibafzal]

Another reason for iPhone 7 Plus is that i was using iPhone 6S which i broke in anger. So i may not feel much difference on iPhone 7.

Yeah, but it's silly that they make fastest computers, and they are not meant for gaming and yet no Apple fan complaints.

The next month, if they launch gaming MacBook and macOS games, then all of a sudden all Apple fans will wake up and start becoming hardcore gamers, but now they are not interested in gaming on laptop at all.

Another funny thing is that, Windows 10 is full touchscreen supported and yet it did not bring any revolution, and macOS does not support touchscreens at all, and that tiny silly touch bar is being called revolutionary and groundbreaking, and let's not bring up the donglegate. Lmao.

7 plus.

Make a habit of using phone with both hands, and then size will not be an issue at all.

Larger screen is more practical, and 7 Plus gets you other benefits as well.

Lol , you're right but I think one of their MacBook has got touchscreen , once in a video. Though Mac is only suitable for businessmen or programmers who got high end processing or graphics designers but that can also be achieved on windows also, but Americans prefer mac and our iAwaam doesn't know that.
