Bought this phone 27th September 2015. Was really happy with it's specs however withing 10 days the phone got dead. On 14th October, I got a replacement phone after making a complaint but again after couple of months the phone started giving the mentioned problems:
1. Microphone does not work when it's on speaker mode.
2. Stop reading the SD card
3. Hangs
4. Heating problems
5. The major problem that I started facing with this phone is auto switch off. It get's switched off on it's own and you cannot switch it no unless the charger is plugged in even if the battery is more that 80% charged.

The phone is sitting with the service center and they are claiming to resolve the issue soon.

              PetraPoolnoodle, 24 Feb 2016I got my M5 a week ago. The battery is fine and I haven't had any problems of it switching off... moreI have exactly the same problem. Won't connect automatically to my WiFi network. I have to connect manually everytime I walk out of the door and comeback. The phone's network setting is connect automatically, but it won't.
              Battery life sucks too. Operation is also very slow for an octacore phone.
              Not satisfied at all.

                    I got my M5 a week ago. The battery is fine and I haven't had any problems of it switching off by it self. I am having trouble with my wi-fi connectivity. It doesn't connect automatically to recognised wi-fi networks and sometimes I have to restart the device several times before it connects. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know how I can fix it?

                                  Problem solved!! Just kidding .I didn't solved it,but i found a way to overcome the auto shutdown.just active your airplane mode when ever you move aroun,and only deactivate your AP mode when you use the phone.autoSD is caused by the changing of network,so just remove the network from the equation.but still,battery drain is the biggest issue.
