I like this phone but performance seems to vary from firmware build to build. The recent one ending in 171 is good, but if you receive the one ending in 184 don't install it, battery life and phone idle battery drain are not as good for sone reason.

Eh. My Mi A1 open apps faster and doesn't lag. The XZ seemed to hitch a lot, especially when apps update on the Play Store. At least this phone has nicer cameras, great screen and the front-facing speakers which I really like. Got the XZ for $120.
