guys quick share lang. just bought myself this January Flare S3 Power V2 with Android Lollipop. i know daan na ni sya na device, but i think new revision ni sya since its V2 and so far wala koi nakita issues as posted sa uban users in facebook groups and other forums(bluetooth issue daw, etc). and comparing ROM, lahi tong Lollipop ota from kitkat and kani sya which is stock/default Android-L pagpalit and also includes the FRP partition which is part of Lollipop's security feature.
so why i chose this? instead of new flagship Flare 4/S4 or even Android One G1?
#1, i needed to use my very old but trusted simcad, which is a regular sized sim but dako contact so maputol ang contacts if i convert to micro-sim
#2, battery capacity - its rated 4000 mAh. bisan unsay pay sulti sa uban na newer SOC are more efficient blah2, a 4000 mAh battery will always last longer than 2000mAh, so the longer imo charging-cycle, the longer imo battery will last, unless nalang if mga reject batteries ni from china etc.
anyways, here is a battery stat post, showing unsa kadugay mahurot ang battery. continuous gaming ni sya with wifi, walay putolputol, with simcards inserted in sim1 and sim2-just for reference
bought mine sa Ayala, daghan pa stocks sa lain lain shop didto. if ever mupalit mo ani, check the device thoroughly, test all you can and make sure na ang V2 imo mapalit- i open ang backcover, there should be a white sticker na nakasulat Cherry Mobile Flare S3 Power V2 and a Warning!! label below that.
Note lang : SIM1 ra ang 3G capable, regular sim size. ang SIM2 is micro sim ONLY and is only 2G capable.
Good Luck.
