Which 5 inch (or under) phone?
#1
Hello,

are there any good 5 inch phones, which have battery 3000+ mah, antutu score over 30.000, at least 2 GB RAM/16 GB ROM, small bezels (small size) and possibly fingerprint scanner? I just can't find such phone...

This doesn't exist in China brands that I know of. You will need to adjust your parameters. I would forget about the 30k Antutu and fingerprint scanner. Take a look at THL 5000T: http://www.chinaphonearena.com/forum/Thr...00T-review

If you're willing to forget about size requirement, it opens up a whole world of possibilities.

Hello, almost 2 years have passed since my question and many new phones were released, so I would like to ask the same question again. Which phone is:
- 5 inch (maybe even 5.5 inch if it has small bezels)
- over 30000 antutu
- at least 2gb/16 GB memory
- over 3000 mAh battery
- fingerprint identification
+ NFC (new)

Thank you.

Now fast forward 2 years and there are a ton of choices at 5.5". And a few at 5.0". The main thing is NFC. Not a lot of phones come with NFC. If you can afford Mi5, it will exceed your spec requirements and have NFC and be the perfect size.

Can you forget about NFC ? If so there are a lot of choices to meet your specs.

Also where do you live?

OK, let's say I forget NFC, but I add another condition: under 200 usdSmiling

And 5.5 inch phone could pass but really small (Elephone S3 looks great, but with awful battery).

I live in EU...band frequencies are:
2G : 900 and 1800 MHz
3G : 900 and 2100 MHz
4G : 800, 1800 or 2600 MHz

Yes Xiaomi Mi5 looks perfect, but it's quite expensiveSad

Starting to sound like a broken record around here, but Redmi Note 3 Pro is the best all around choice and meets your budget.

http://www.gizbeat.com/review/xiaomi-red...ro-review/

It's 5.5".

You might think about Redmi 3s also which is 5.0". That is good all around too, but the Snapdragon 650 is more powerful than Snapdragon 615.

Ive had the Redmi Note 3 pro 3G 32 G 650 snapdragon for about 2 weeks and I'm amazed.

Admittedly Ive had very little exposure to "foreign" phones, but I feel this is definitely on par with the Samsung galaxy s6 that my mate let me have a play with.

From Gearbest
Network:
2G: GSM 900/1800/1900MHz
3G: WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100MHz; CDMA 2000: BC0
4G: FDD-LTE 1800/2100/2600MHz

Without gaming I'm getting around 10 hours screen on time, my last phone was around 4.

Fingerprint scanner is really rapid, probably 1/2 of a second or less, not measured it but lightening fast, plus ive recorded the same finger a few time just to give it the best chance, no idea if this is a good or bad thing.

Screen is 5.5 inches, I preferred 4.7 or 5 inch, but I’m used to it now and wouldn’t go back smaller, has one handed mode where you can turn the screen 3.5,4 and 4.5 inches.

antutu 70,000+

no nfc, but i don't think i'd use it anyway

maybe has otg, don't quote me on that though

ir blaster, so far im having fun turning TV's off in different locations, immature but i refuse to grow old gracefully.

Slight downside it uses MIUI instead of stock Android, but there are many custom roms on XDA. I'm a flashaholic, and was changing roms every month or so on my galaxy s2, when the warranty runs out i will be in flash heaven again.

Hope this help, any question i will do my best to answer.


EDIT

There is a video on Youtube comparing the 2:16 to the 3:32, virtually identical in real world usage from what i could gather, but i paid the small extra for the extra 16Gb of internal storage.

I have read review of Redmi Note 3 Pro and opinion of bilko and I must say I'm impressed. The only 2 things that bother me are size (I used to have 4.7 inch phone and after that 5.0 inch and I don't like to go bigger...comparing to my current phone it would be 7 mm longer and 5 mm wider, that's quite a lot) and lack of NFC.

OK, I could get Xiaomi Mi5, but it's too expensive...maybe the price will drop during next months?

So, no real alternative in 5 inch range???

Yup, has OTG

Yup, once many people go big, they don't want to go back.

Yup, no difference in performance between 2GB vs 3GB... 16GB I think fine for most people and can expand storage. If a real power user and installing many many apps, may consider the 32GB version.

The Redmi 3S is a real alternative. But just that OS not as snappy as Redmi Note 3 Pro. Still a very good choice for the price. Depends what type of user you are. If you need everything there in a second when you tap it, or can wait 2s if opening a new app. This is the best 5.0" choice considering price and all around. Has compass and gyro and otg and huge 4000mAh battery (for a 5.0" phone).

My girlfriend has Xiaomi Redmi 3 (compared to 3S has different chipset, lacks fingerprint sensor) and I'm not so amazed with it. It's kind of slower (not so snappy) as my Elephone P6000 and has some weird bugs (for example when she installed timely app and put clock widget on homesscreen, sometimes the clock didn't refresh, also some other widgets had problems with refreshing).

And also Redmi 3S doesn't have NFC...so I would not buy Redmi 3S, rather Note 3 Pro (if I decided I can live without NFC).
