My impression on L5 after some full days of use of it is that it is not (yet … hopefully) a phone that I would recommand to non tech|linux|dev|something person that want to use it as a second phone (it can be the main phone … for me it is the only phone …)
Reasons why:
- Upgrades are still failing, from time to time from store (so instead of trying on and on there you can go to the terminal)
- Battery life is very low (I added zram, swap, reflash it … it will lose @40% over night, in suspend mode after 1 minute) [this bothers me]
- It gets warm very fast (after few minutes of use → 52+ C) [this bothers me] (yes … I saw that we can change the battery maybe this will fix the problem BUT I’m from EU not USA so in order to buy another battery I need to buy another phone
… and why not delivered with a good battery from first time … assuming the problem is the battery) - it freeze/block from time to time (e.g.: today I had a call, resposed to it and just close the display after … when I wanted to open it … it was stuck on that call panel - the call was ended but I wasn’t able to close the panel)
- its heavy (for a standard user … for me … its ok … I have only 2 problems with it [check above])
- on charging it gets, again, very warm
I will buy one more (at least - for my wife first) if these 2 problems that bothers me will be fixed (hopefully they will)
