[Guest felipovicc]

I just found this phone and i would like to know what do you guys think about it, i think the 16gb/2gb version would be the best choice. I also read that it ships with aosp android.

Hello,

 

I have a BQ Aquaris E5 HD 16gb black. They are very similar so i´ll try to give you an ideia.

 

I´m quite satisfied, and the 4G version is even better due to snapdragon screen, more saturated colours and so on. BQ offers by far the best price/performance ratio here in Portugal and southern europe. It has a stylish and robust contruction and it uses a very good plastic; it makes my old y300 look like a toy. It´s quite slim and easy to use with one hand.

 

The software is pure stock android with a few minor tweaks for the best. You can: display battery percentage on notification bar; choose between 2g only/ 3g only/ 2g-3g automatic; it has notification counts for messages and missed calls on lock screen etc. For me it has no bugs and they make OTA updates regularly. Also it has lollipop update confirmed for the first trimester 2015 via hard reset.

 

The battery lasts easily 2 days with normal use. 

 

For me it even beats the moto g 2014 easily, and that phone by itself is an amazing budget choice so that´s saying a lot.

 

Ask me anything you want to know about BQ and i´ll help you. Recommended!
