Ok, let's start from phone feeling slugish.
I bought this phone second hand for 150€
The phone feels slow. Smooth is not a word for this phone. In simple tasks like browsing through UI (settings, xperia home etc.) Phone feels very slow and thats not what you would expect from SnapDragon 820.
In terms of Gaming its not bad runs pretty much anything you throw at it at Medium to high settings, but after playing for like 10 minutes it heats up really bad. (i'm gonna talk about it in just a sec)
Design.
Boy oh boy what do we have here.
Volume buttons are below power button and thats a such a bad decision! I freaking hate that! I have to tilt the phone to reach the volume buttons with my thumb. Thats soo dumb!
But it feels nice in the hand. I'm really big fan of the back of this phone, front looks a bit weird becauce of screen to body ratio.
Screen is decent nothing big or deal breaking in here.
Heating!
What the actual living f...
It heats up like hell. Its like your personal heat warmer.
Just by using the phone normally phone reaches 40-50c
(Facebook, twitter etc...)
Even when you scroll through ui you can feel some heat. While i am typing this kind of review phone is warm.
But there is one thing that i really love about this phone. Its speakers. Oh mah god man i love 'em. Maybe thats because its my first stereo phone, but they are really good. Could be louder tho.
Camera could be better but its not bad. Will clip few photos that are made with xperia x performance. (If i have any lol)
Conclusion: don't buy it unless you are desperate for a phone like me or you just use it casually. (Calling and texting)
Buy something like xiaomi mi 5s a much better phone. Smoother and better in every way. (Not a fan boy)
In general i somehow still like this phone but i hate it when it heats up and feels slow, but if i would be buying a new phone i would consider buying xiaomi mi 5s or xiaomi mi 5.
Again, i am not a xiaomi fan.
Peace
