Point of correction, I am not a dude.



It seems you haven't use high end Chipset and well optimised ROM. Get a phone with Snapdragon 808 and above with MIUI 6 or 7 or Flyme OS come back and drop your testimony.

If you can get a phone with high end Chipset, 1 or 2GB RAM, well optimised ROM and 2500 - 3000mAh you're good to go. Mind you new Chipset are always designed to consume less power than old ones.


A phone with 4GB ram and those Chipset Tecno do use will still lag when you multi task it.

My phone running MIUI 7 Kit kat gives me almost same features with Lollipop and also ones not available in stock Lollipop.

To me, I consider mainly Chipset and ROM before other things.


Too sad, many do not know the function of Chipset and ROM, what they're after is big ram and battery.


Last bullet, what I need a superb performance.



#Xiaomi
#MIUI
Bros no lie o, u b girl??. Meanwhile now I get, all these Xiaomi peeps. Heavy users with High end assets or rather gadgets, but hey you are forgetting the post is for starters! And between you and your mind, you know battery optimisation is not really of a desired quality yet on High chipsets through.

Sorry sir but that can't be, the codenames are alphabetical in order and M has been taken by version six with the Marshmallow, next is going to be N. I don't think M will ever be visited again, the list is yet to even be exhausted.

It can, after due processes, which will start with you rooting the phone.
Will that need any special tutorial?

But can't the RAM be increased?
The sizes of hardware can't be varied in a device, except tru engineering. And yes, ram is a hardware.

Not too many offer high capacity battery and would be of pocket loving price but with management you can make even a 1500mAh battery last pretty well. Using 2g which is quite fast with good network, reducing screen brightness and enabling power saving mode will make will help for instance itel it1406 charged up to 96% last about seven hours of near heavy use, that's quite okay in my view.


My Itel 1406 bat3 starts to drop wen it unplugged@100%. another of my friend who uses d same fon has d same problem. bat3 doesn't last except u don't press d fon at all

After rooting, what next do you do. I've rooted my phone before because of the RAM issue. I was looking for an app that could forcemove the apps to memory card. The ones I got didn't work.

Good write up.......low Ram on smartphones can be frustrating
Mostly on Android smart phones, 512 Mb ram would still run smoothly on other OS

hmmm, u consider chipset and rom. I undastnd ur nid for a high end chipset. But sayin u can use a fone wit 1gb of ram is jst overkill, u obviously dnt multitask. And for all ur love for rom, its easily expandable in most fones some up to 128gb. One more tin a low end chipset is nt necessarily d cause of lags and stutters, d ram is also a major contributing factor. App r beginning to get heavier, d heavier de becom d more d ram space nided to rum dis apps increase. De r some games a 1gb ram and evn a 2gb ram wont run and evn if de run dem, de ll be massive lags.
Ram is not the major factor.

When. Your phone is clocked at 1.3ghz and your min clock is 519ghz couples with 1gb ram, that phone will surely lag chipests also contribute , see the infinix zero Two clocked at 2.0ghz think infinix weren't thinking right when they clocked it at that? Because they wanted the phone to not lag when MTing. So 2gb ram powered with latest mediatek chipests assisted by 2.0ghz, beastly. If you like you can increase the ram of it using partition to 3gb which means 5gb, that settles it for life.

Memory card of a higher GB can relieve.

....I dnt believe in that specification tags....
Check from authoritative sources...

Joel3:
the list is not complete without battery. I think battery mah should come first for we in this part of the world.
androidroot:
I concour. battery very important
High MaH doesn't necessarily mean longer battery power. It is possible for, say, an 1500 MaH battery to outlast an 3200 MaH battery if the hardware and internal parts are more optimally adjusted in the former.
