G4 will cost 3 times more.

I heard different things about the 4/64gb version, the read/write speed doubles and benchmark results are good looking, yet you are only paying $100 more.

sid33, 16 Apr 2015Hows ur battery life??The battery drain isn't really a standby problem. I just had it sitting on my night stand for six hours while sleeping and lost 7% battery... that's fine really. But I lost 2% battery in 5 mins when I started using it.

To me this sounds like a ROM issue which I do hope they fix.

screen is very good as well as the camera. better review on android authority. in fact they placed the zf2 as one of the three best choices under 350$. this phone is a bargain just as one plus one was a year ago.

Or is it strictly in terms of benchmarks?

Camera is like Sony Xperias, the victim of stupendously bad image processing by default. Easy fix. The Ultra Resolution mode really works by the way, take a look at the samples I posted. Significantly better resolution than stock.

Overall pretty crappy with the poor screen, camera, battery and SoC. The 4GB version might make the SoC and even camera better but screen and camera are still bad. The good thing is it is cheap.

As I stated, if you go for the 720p version, your battery life endurance score should increase over the ZE551ML by about 10-15 hours. And it's cheaper. Seems like a good deal to me, eh?

Unbelievable...

How the hell are these OEMs putting such huge batteries in their phones at 1080p resolution but still getting much worse battery lives than the S6 with only a 2550 mAH battery with a frigging 1440p resoultion?
