When the SD810 generation phones throttle, that was because of overheating, no?
Are you saying the metal clads that most new phones had may cause it to easily overheat compared to non-metal phones?
I think if you leave it under the sun, yeah the external source of heat might cause the metal to heat up thus cooking the cores and the juice block nicely done.

I find it strange that you recommended MI4s but not MI4c even though in their reviews you endorsed the camera of the MI4c saying it's great for its price range while the same cannot be said for the MI4s. In short, worse camera and slight throttling because of metal body.

Anonymous, 22 Apr 2016Here, a "small" retailer starting with A is selling the V10 for € 476: http://www.amazon.de/dp... more....actually, the one who needed information on V10 price is that bloke over at Finland, not me. Sure, it's a damn good phone, but not to my taste. Mainly for the screen's (both screens, for this one) power consumption. I do like the battery being removable, but having a power sipping cpu cores/soc (cough*Snapdragon*cough*SONY*cough*M/Z*cough*series*) and FHD on that size of a phablet, to me is the best combination in terms of power efficiency.
Once, I dreamt the V10/G3/G4 are capable to alter to downgrade its display resolution on-device, sort of power saving mode but with all the features of a FHD smartphone, because if not for the resolution (or secondary reasoning maybe battery capacity) I might have chosen one of those in a heartbeat, long ago. By the way, both G3 & G4 had been officially launched here, and they're very popular too for being cheaper than either Samsung or Sony given equally capable specs. Not sure about V10.
I did followed links to online retailers from time to time, to check international prices. For the actual purchase however, I would rather very much liked to wait the vendor to officially launched the product I wanted in my country, Indonesia, no matter how long it may took, and then admittedly more often than not ended up breaking my heart when said vendor decided to move on to their newer lineup, or worse, failed to gain enough marketshare using their previous lineup and give up their business in the country.
My preference for offline shopping is mainly due to 1# habit, 2# ability to meet the device in person before the purchase, 3# transactional security. Which does not entirely closes the window for online shopping, but maybe later. This is a wall I need to break on my own.
That is why I inquired whether or not those prices originated from a common place, and where. Thank you for your reply, Anonymous.

According to other sites the HTC 10 isn't as good. Battery life is worse than s7 (good standby but poor in use), and the camera is disappointing. So the only good thing about the phone is speakers which aren't even on the front.
The s7 or mi5 are the most appealing propositions this year, depending on your price. HTC and lg have been lacklustre, or rather xiaomi and Samsung have outdone themselves and everyone else.

Anonymous, 21 Apr 2016You really aren't the only one who thinks like that. :) Glad to hear others agree with me.I also agree. This is about features and value. If someone's favorite phone did not make the cut it's because the reviewers saw better value in other phones.

... Is it just me or did they mess up every single camera aperture in the descriptions?
I agree with those guys about the Moto E and the plethora of Zenphones missing altogether. Not even included in the "phones we skipped and why"?
Also, my brother has a Moto G 2nd gen and it works perfectly fine. I guess i get why it didn't make the cut, but for anyone on a low budget if they can get it at a good price it most definitely is worth considering (i got my brother's for 90 bucks last christmass, killer deal)
