Which 5000mAh phone would you recommend?

tecno l5,l8,gionee m5 and so on

donhils:
All these long thing written here just to talk about battery? Plus I don't want to be carrying heavy load every now and then cos I want 5000mah battery. I'd prefer a super slim, fast, classy and elegant looking phone with 3000mah battery to all these heavy loads from chinko companies.

lol you know right?life of a J8

Xhaka:
I agree with Op, Phones like L5 or L8, the L5 can even charge another phone

is it only Tecno phones that can charge themselves?

stalyf:


Okay ooo

Guys, let everyone be free to express himself, respect everyones opinion especially when the person talks out of experience, he could have gotten a the fake tecno.
but battery is definatly one feature one can never over look when you talking of buying a phone, am presently using it1402 and am rocking it.

Yes 5000mAh is really great considering the current situation of Nigeria.

AdeOluwaTomiwa:

Some Gionee phones too can

Xhaka:

Some Gionee phones too can

yeah right... I thought it was only tecno phones..what about infinix though?

Infinix keh, their phones might spoil doing that.

Xhaka:

Infinix keh, their phones might spoil doing that.

LMAO

stalyf:

Honestly, i have not used any of them but reading the comments of some people that have used them, i think the time to full charge is a challenge for them

I don't agree on the bold. My office colleague uses L8+ and he just said he has no difficulting charging to maximum capacity.

How long does it take to full charge?

BLACK WALLPAPER CAN
SAVE 8% BATTERY PER HOUR
ON SMARTPHONES
We all know that high-end smartphones nowadays come
with brightest of the mobile displays available in the
market. With high nits and pixel densities, they ultimately
end up hogging the battery life of the phone. But what is
still a very less known fact is that the color of your
wallpaper can decide your battery life. It is said that a
pure black or any dark-colored image as your wallpaper
can save power as compared to a lighter wallpaper.

How long does it take to full charge?

like i said earlier, I don't own it but a colleague does... the report I got was that contrary to your claim, the battery don't take forever to be fully charged.

I have a clean tecno L5 5000mAh for sale with pack and accessories for 20k only. call/whatsapp 08025220285 if interested

Baroba:
It all boils down to software and optimisation, Sony Xperia Z3 doesn't have anything remotely close to 5000mah but the screen on time / stand by time is outstanding, even the all mighty google had to implement this in android marshmallows ( doze function). That's how good it is.

Xiaomi redmi 3 with its 4000mah will be my choice for someone on a budget, the battery just keeps going..

Good write up all the same..

How much for both? Are you using both? I'll try the dark wallpaper tip someone dropped.

obviously a phone with a large battery is better. charging with a power-bank every time is quite exhausting.

Get a phone like L8 and stop worrying about battery life

A battery with that capacity should at least last for a day.....and its cheap sef... So a bargain

5000MAh seems like a good option for heavy usage people

ibibiofirstlady:

i think it should have a fast charge feature then

Misterpaul:
Damn...now i am already missing my beloveth 4000mah Gionee m3 phone that was stolen last week.

How much did u buy it and when? Is it also heavy like M5?

johnjameson:
5000MAh seems like a good option for heavy usage people

L8 will be the ideal phone for heavy users cos the battery is 5050mAh

golddeejay:
yeah there was a time my music player keeps stopping by itself...I think dat has bn resolved wit d last updates.
also sometimes u don't get WhatsApp or bbm msgs notification unless they are active in d background. This apart...d phone is smooth

Please bro be sincere. How have you been enjoying the device? Any issue for now? How does one recognise the latest update?

Dolaries:


Look for custom roms or enhancement for your phones, I use a Gionee M3 mini and all these things were sorted out with a custom rom, am using Cynagon mod 12.1 and it's a very nice experience

where can I get Gionee m3 mini even if it's fairly used?

Lovelynature:

like I said the only issue am having with d fone is WhatsApp and bbm have to be opened in d background to get instant msg. Minus that, am enjoying the phone. it is fast and smooth...it has never lag not matter how many activities I am using it for. For the latest updates, u may be notify if there is any or just go to SETTINGS, then ABOUT PHONE, then u will see SYSTEM UPDATES...there u will see latest updates if there is any.

Thanks a lot. Do you know if slots sell it and how much it may cost?

I'm currently using a 5000mah phone. It's a tecno l5, cost just 20k. The battery is way superb. I'm a phone presser and the battery lasts me up to 12hours on continuous internet usage.

However, my camera is a big flop. I mean a very big flop that you would hate the phone. You would be embarrassed if your friends ask to use your phone for a selfie or whatever cos the camera is just like that of those 2008 laptop webcam. I will attach photos taken with my camera so you would see what I'm saying.

The phone's display is horrible, you need to see my brother rocking his own 19k phone which has 1080p HD display while mine looks just like 360p. Although his phone has just 3500mah. You need to see his camera, both front and back, it's mwah.

The is small at about 4.5inches screen but damn heavy. I mean if you put it in your pocket without using a belt or something your trouser will immediately fall off.

The phone also hangs a lot. I mean a lot. Especially if you have Facebook app or messenger on it. My dear this phone will make you wish you for Nokia torchlight as soon as you have up to 15 apps installed on it.

Lastly, this phone was made with a very unusual massive battery of 5000mah without fast charge feature. With the 2.0A super fast charger I use, it takes 4hours 30minute straight for the phone to get full from 0%, with the follow come charger which is a 1.2a charger, just be preparing to use 6hours cos even with my charger in exactly one hour my phone may just have added up 10℅.

So if you will buy a phone with 4000mah or above, check the features and specifications well. Make sure it has "fast charge" feature, sometimes it's listed on the phone's pack. And if you will take my advice, stay away from itel or tecno for value/satisfaction sake. You might consider gionee or infinix products. My 2 cents.

100% true ! I had to dispose mine .. . ... now eyeing C8
