Wow, I have never seen a company post so much info on amps and DAC's. Very cool! I sent them an email but they only seem to be in Asia.
And they are definitely not the cheap Blu phone company.
They are the same outfit that does the one+ phones.
Nice looking phones with mid range processors. Sound like just the ticket, if I could get them here.

Please can you help me?
 
I'm looking for a new phone with better amp than my current one (Galaxy S5). I already looked at GouryellaIV's list but there are a lot of ups and downs for every phone that could fit me.
It should be at least 5.5 inch, 5.7 would be better. Fingerprint-sensor on the front, and an SD-card expension slot or 128GB of memory. Gaming performance is not that important because I'm not gaming that much on my phone.
The three UMi-phones seemed capable, but I read that there could be a heating problem when charging these. Do you know something about that rumor?
Thank you very much in advance!

I would rather buy from a major dealer or from the company direct.
Xiaomi sells the loaded Mi Max on their site for $309.00. I figure that with conversion, shipping, customs and taxes my landed cost (in Canada) would be about $500.00. That is about my max for a new phone.

Most of the phones ive bought in Aliexpress didnt charge me any customs if you dont select DHL, UPS, Fedex, and EMS. Use China Post or Aliexpress shipping and they wont charge any customs or taxes. Ive bought 3 phones and shipped to British Columbia and no taxes and customs were charged. Just make sure you use China Post or Aliexpress shipping.

my list is updated. I added tons of phones from ZTE and this new brand called KingZone. Also fixed the Xplay 6 specs
 
 
For image list, see post #5936
 
 
 
KingZone phones seem to use the Yamaha chip for most of their phones, and i never knew that ZTE had many Axon 7 variants, also that V3 Extreme Edition looks interesting.

What did you pay for shipping? I am about 4,000 kilometres from you (Nova Scotia).

It was free from the different buyers i bought the 3 phones if you use China Post or Aliexpress shipping,. It usually takes less than a month if you use China Post, but Aliexpress Standard Shipping is faster, for my Xiaomi Mi4, it took about 15 days to arrive here when i used aliexpress shipping.

Had this in mind but I'm just comparing it with the Mate 8 at the moment. I'm not sure but I think I would prefer the Mate 8


I would love to buy the V20 but here in Germany it is not released (yet ?).

Thank you a lot for the answers.

Pro5 > mate8 imo.

It is free shipping worldwide... That is why I suggest you buy from aliexpress. It just need around 3 weeks to send to your hand.

Free is good.:blush:
What happens if you have a problem with the phone?
Right now the exchange rate is about 1.35, plus the charge card will at least a point or two. Plus we have a 15% sales tax here. Are there charges due on delivery?
Any certain companies that you recommend?

Thanks for your info!

Does the fingerprint scanner have to be on the front? keep the Axon 7 in mind though the scanner is on the back or if you can wait a little the Meizu Pro6 Plus will be for sale soon and has a 128gb option the overall specs and audio chipset seems impressive but of course no reviews yet and conflicting reports about LTE support so far but both of those have an AMOLED panel which you are used to already
