And what about the phones of this company with the quality of the received signal of the cellular network ???
Here before, Nokia was good at catching the net everywhere ... Now Samsung doesn’t catch the net well. Who can compare

Excellent: yes2:
I can compare with my old man the Samsung S4 GT-I9505, he always pleased (and continues) with his work in this regard as well as the main for today Lenovo Vibe X3 (both on Snapdragon).
I do not know how with this on fresh models of Samsung.

But the P1 with a metal case speaks poorly and receives a signal. P2 is also promised from metal ...

I have a P1 Chinese c72 version. Moscow + region (north, Sheremetyevo rn) 4g is stable, in rare cases 3G.

AlexM777,
what interests me and probably many:
- volume of the ringing speaker
- quality of conversational dynamics
- sound in the ears
- GPS quality
- photo and video quality

for the first impression +

[masteropium]

Well, how does the charge, the quality of the screen, full Russification

How the charge holds, in a couple of days it will become clear. The brightness of the screen is visually higher, but I have never, before, had the A-LEAD of the screen.
About the completeness of localization did not understand the question

[masteropium]

is Russian everywhere? in the menu, in the settings, calendar, tasks, alarms

[SANTER79]

AlexM777,on the bottom of the speaker housing two or one? Turn on the music and shut both holes in turn.

Are there any regular autorecording of all telephone conversations from the line? How is the recording quality? Is it possible to set saving records to a memory card?

[Looking]

vandizelthank! But how about saving the records? Is it possible to configure that they are automatically recorded on the SD card, and not in the phone's memory?

[noskojv]

vandizel
On my similar menu about recording calls: yes2:
Looking,
If P2 is still the same, then there is no save function on the memory card.
The quality is good, there is an auto mode.

Dolby in P2 no?

[Looking]

[email protected], 18:45

Looking, in 6 androids, the card serves two functions ... Or as an extension of the internal, where it merges together. Or just as a supplement that does not participate in the work of the programs. And used as a third-party file storage.

That is, in the recording program itself, it is impossible to specify an arbitrary directory for saving records

[email protected], 18:45

Looking,
If P2 is still the same, then there is no save function on the memory card.

It’s a pity ... but maybe what program is there, which, according to the schedule, will be recording once a day from the phone’s memory to the memory card?
Or do I look at another device, or software? that is, to use not a regular record, but an additional third-party one?

I suspect that third-party programs will not write to the card ... Or they will write crookedly, in the firmware all the same, more full support for recording from the line. And programs often write crookedly. Either from the speaker, or from the microphone. The only solution is to do the transfer once a day by yourself. Or combine memory. You can make an automatic upload to the cloud, etc. ... In general, strange criteria when choosing a phone. This functionality is generally not standard in the android.

Well, if the android is not, then in others it seems to be even less, because in some countries, the prohibitions on recording and manufacturers do not implement such a function. I have almost the main function of the phone - to write all the conversations, as they are for work and I need them in the future. I don’t quite understand about association in memory - will it be like a raid "mirror"? That is, will the recording be kept on the memory of the phone and on the card? or is the card "added" to the memory of the phone, and will it start recording only after the standard memory of the phone gets stuck to the string?

[masteropium]

The internal volume and memory cards are added and the system sees and uses a single volume. but if you pull out the card without reversing the process of “sharing” the memory, you will not be able to find some of the programs and data that the system has written in the memory of the memory card. by the way, the size of the conversation file is not very large, usually one channel writes, mono, so the memory will not run out soon
