How did they do it?

How is the zuk z2 so cheap while still getting OTA updates and Nougat?

>SD820
>5 inch 1080p screen
>3500mAh battery
>4GB ram
>13MP Samsung ISOCELL camera
>64GB eMMC
>USB type C
>$170

All it needs is a better camera and it would be able to go head to head with modern Android flagships while costing one quarter the price.
It's even cheaper than the mi5 which is already considered a budget flagship.

How did they do it?

Does it work with t-mobile?
>>
>>58221399
Yep

Probably a botnet
>>
>>58221299
chinkware, it will probably fall apart within months.
>>
It doesn't have nougat.
>>
>>58221723
Every Android phone is part of a botnet this is nothing new
>>
>>58221820
Don't worry pissphone, it'll get an update in less than a month

No localization - literally 3 languages: English, Chinese and Chinese simplified.
Overall software quality.
Overall hardware quality.
C.h.i.n.k.s.h.i.t.

>software quality
Just werkz

>hardware quality
It's pretty good 2bh. Not sure how good the z2 is, but the z2 pro has a built in shock absorber/rollcage.

>chinkshit
So, made in China like 90% of modern electronics?
>>
>>58221993
Forgot screenshot.
>>
>>58221888
Nougat came out in July. This phone isn't up to date and you shouldn't buy it.
>>
Thinking about ditching my zenfone 2 so thanks for telling me about this phone.
>>
>>58222013
Who runs stock on a chinkphone. There's a CyanogenMod 14.1 ROM available.

>>58221993
>Just werkz
I tried using Mi5 for a couple of months and found it pretty terrible software-wise. Could you please check following and report if it "Just werkz" on ZUI?
1) Save *.cer certificates to device from e-mail attachment using default e-mail client.
2) Import said certificates using default file manager.
3) Try to sync contacts with CardDAV server.

>So, made in China like 90% of modern electronics?
Yes, but modern electronics != chinkshit.
>>
>>58222086
CyanogenMod is unsupported buggy garbage and this ZUI shit is probably terrible, you get what you pay for.
>>
Can i use it for vr porn?
>>
>>58222130
Typical pissphone

>>58222087
>default email client
Isn't there a third party one you could install that does?
>>
>>58222130

I'm running RessurectionRemix which is based on CyanogenMod on my mi 4c and it performs better and has longer battery life then stock. Never crashes.

Have you ever used CyanogenMod?
>>
>>58222185
I used to use it on all of my phones but then Android got better and CyanogenMod wasn't worth using anymore.

Now its relegated to mouth breathing retard tinkerers that cheap out on devices and have nothing better to do than play with roms.
>>
>>58222205
Don't lie. We know you're still using a piss soaked iPhone 4s
>>
>>58221723
>>58221838
You do realize that custom ROMs exist?
>>
>>58221299
except it's $200+

step it up, shills
>>
>>58222130
>>>58222086
>CyanogenMod is unsupported buggy garbage and this ZUI shit is probably terrible, you get what you pay for.
Oh, really? An operating system that got released a couple of months ago doesn't have a stable custom ROM alternative? How about waiting a couple of months and not willingly installing an unstable and unfinished OS? I guess that would make too much sense.
>>
>>58221299
Z2 is a shit phone. it was supposed to get cyanogenmod, instead it got a piece of shit internal ui.

if you want to buy some good shit for less price, one plus 3 is the way to go.

Otherwise, look at LeEco. Snapdragon, and has a lot of customization options. Android is for ricing, not for something that "just werkz".
"just werkz" is for an iphone, when you pick up your phone just so that it can work.

It's the same difference between a mac and a pc. You improve a PC bit by bit. Mac is already there for work.
>>
>>58222247
>step it up shills
Sure, if that's what you want.

>Isn't there a third party one you could install that does?
I'd better buy third party phone that has this functionality out of box.

You still did not answer my >>58222087 question.
>>
>>58222314
thx f.am!

> still not 170 tho
>>
>>58222315
I'm not him though.

>>58222324
Op might have done a typo? Or maybe old prices? There was recently a massive sale on zuk phones.
>>
>>58222306
No it isn't iOS is fucking shit and CyanogenMod is shit, use stock or GTFO.

Shit like ZUI and OxygenOS (oneplus) is just a way for them to fuck you out of real support and lower the price a bit, it isn't worth it.

The sad part is that these people actually praise CyanogenMod like its a fucking bonus.
>>
>>58222315
That would be a pretty silly thing to do. The whole point of Android is that you can install third party apps that fit your requirements the best. Nobody uses stock apps.
>>
>>58222344
s/nobody/everybody/

I know you like to think everyone does what you do but if you even bring that shit up in normal conversation 99% of people won't know what you are fucking talking about. You live in a hugbox.
>>
>>58222306
>LeEco
No headphones.

>1+3
>less price than zuk z2
Are you on drugs?

Also I hate to agree with a tripfag, but after CM 7 it's been a downhill slope for them.
>>
>>58222344
Maybe, but
>sync contacts with CardDAV server
does not work on MIUI with any app because the bug that prevents it from working is in OS itself.
>>
>>58222371
Good to know
>>
Was about to pull the trigger on the z2 when i realized

> no card slot

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>
>>58222416
Is 64GB not enough for you?
>>
>>58222185
Not him but do a full device encryption, or use adoptable storage.

Both are broken in currymod, it's also broken in RR if I remember correctly.
>>
>>58222003
Isnt android 6, marshmallow?
Nice trip dubs muh boi

>>58222458

>>58222537
Update to nougat coming in January. Not that I care too much, Android hasn't had a huge change since lollipop. All marshmallow offered was a poorly implemented apps ops.
>>
>>58222590
Said like a true poorfag cyanocuck.
>>
>>58221299
I wish I knew. Don't flagships cost like 300 to make?

Are they breaking even, or just settling for near cost for marketing their brand?
>>
>>58222314

Does it only have one button (beside on-screen ones) ?
>>
>>58224179
Yeah, but it's a super duper button.

Tap to go back, click to go home, slide to go to previous or next app in recents, double click to open recents, and you can configure it to do more in your system settings.

You can also enable on screen buttons too if you want, but the single button can do everything my nexus 5 buttons could, and more.
>>
>>58222590
dude from the efficiency and speed from L to N is undeniable
>>
>spyware
Nah.
>>
>>58221799
I just need it for 24 months
>>
>>58221299
Can i get it with MIUI? I want a good looking UI
>>
>>58224363
Idk about N, but M just killed the battery life in my nexus 5.

>>58228777
>miui

Inb4 superfish like thing hiding in it.
>>
>>58229221
Xiaomi does the same thing. Just flash the community global rom or RR on it or MoKee or something like I had to for my rmn3p.
