Lenovo Phab Plus - User Reviews

  • LuL. Im still considering buying it and slapping Pie on it. Gonna give it a wild try.

  • It heats up even if im not using it. LENOVO WHY??!

  • Im ok with this phablet

  • The SD card never worked. The phone is very bad. does not catch the signals properly. YYou can't transfer files tto SD card. I am switching over tto Samsung. don't buy Chinese software. useless!!!

  • Who'd use a tablet as a phone?! You guys are weird...

  • Hi, how to restore the sound of lenovo pb1-750m.. There is a sign of earphone in a tablet but I didn't connect earphone... When I watch a movie at home I must wear an earphone so I can hear the sound....

  • please can someone help me..lenovo sayes that lenovo phab 2 pro wont pick up nougat rom..so how can i install nougat 7 on my lenovo phab 2 pro..

  • not long lasting

  • Bad phone. Terribly sound isse. Don't buy

  • hahaha........ you are talking about issues happened somewhere in 80's..

  • My phab is going good but its true that phab will be heated during gaming......expect this phab is good

  • this model stuck at lollipop update. LOL....

  • Using this phone for 2 years. love this phone due to its screen size and decent performance. - camera, poor in low light. - video, unbearable sound recording, you will not understand anything - no folder options. - you need to buy one. - changed the charging port twice. - it is getting hot for gaming - touch screen will freeze during gaming. bad experience on this. - Automatic USB folder option is being disabled after few usage. you need to remove your memory card manually to transfer files, or just reset your phone - Battery is good in first few years, now it only charge 10% every 30 minutes using a fast charger.. battery performance consumes 1% of charge every 2 minutes in use. already tried doing battery replacement but still having the same issue. - Dont expect that this phone will last long.

  • yes it does, first install a file browser app from google play like es explorer

  • mine is good, i like it, i use it for ebook reading and internet browsing and watching movies, calling and texting, using social network apps like whats app, telegram, i don't play games with it. camera is good. battery does not annoy no overheating. it worths the price.

  • NO issue for me all good

  • One of the worst tab i've ever seen. The Tab gets very much heated all the time, even when i just go through the phone, it gets heated like nothing. when i charge i sometimes fear whether it will explode due to the heat, because it gets heated like nothing and it always gets hanged all the time. I would request stop purchasing this phab, really really worst. at times I get really annoyed and feel like smashing this phone. really waste of money, the local chinese tabs are much better than this, it works really faster than this

  • Mine is working properly, no issues at all.

  • true.... pathetic unit!

  • Honestly, I don't trust Lenovo when it comes to smartphone. Have Phab Plus unit and never get peace of mind, perfomance is poor. My unit is still not starting after the battery drain issue, I don't want t waste my time to bring it in the nearest technician. Of all my collections, Lenovo units are the worst. iPhone, Xperia and Samsung are the best. So please, stop dreaming to have this unit.

  • i loved this phablet, it is the greatest phone ever. Thanks lenovo. iam really happy to use lenovo phab plus. just provide this phablet's cover in nepal.

  • Cannot move files to sdcard

  • Over heating Problem And Charging slot problem its 2nd time really frustating please dont buy it

  • im using lenovo phab plus.. maybe its a little heavy... used for my documents only...

  • I just bought this phab n guess what it doesn't read the SIM card. It always shows no service. Any idea why???

  • Worst cell phone ever.....don't buy it, it's a waste of money

  • Very good display. Good precision. Maybe you must practice more. But the battery is poor. Too little for this size of display.

  • Hi, thanks for your input on the 4G capability of the sim slots. Yes, you cannot get simultaneous 4G on both slots. Pity. I got jio sim for data only so now I use the latter for data (in slot 2) and calls from airtel sim in slot 1. Airtel sim is 4G but I'm getting only G due to this issue

  • Dont buy it if you wanna took it as your game gadget instead, its a lame screen and not precicion

  • great phone , i`m mostly into media and the screen is great. I`m using external USB sticks, dual with both micro-USB and the normal slot. Let the phone first format your stick, than use it. You can still use it without installing any file-explorers, you will see all in Settings/Storage/photos and videos. I`m not using anything from google-play (never made an account), only free apps, so that i never have ads and bs on my phone.

  • Yes. But u must first install free app called es explorer or file manager.

  • I concur with everything you said. All future buyers... beware of the limitations mentioned herein. I, likewise, use this phablet as browser only, not as main or calling device (I'd be very sorry if i did).

  • Careful. Says dual SIM 4G. But is really are only one SIM at one time. Meaning the other SIM will only operate at 2G. Having said that it is still not wrong to say both SIM slots are 4G. Just not dual 4G standby.

  • why my phab plus cant read 32gb external storage SD card... pls help...

  • Have been using this since Nov 2016. So here is my piece on this phone. Pros: 1. Good build - it feels premium enough 2. Good screen - Full HD looks pleasing 3. Good for the price - bought it cheap and brand new Cons: 1. Still Lollipop - I'm still waiting for an update though 2. Heats up fast - I not a gamer, but every time I play, say 5-10 mins, it heats up fast 3. Hangs - I can't believe this hangs very often 4. Low battery - I always bring a back up phone for my calls and messages. I only use this for browsing the internet and playing videos. Such a disappointment. I have to charge the phone twice a day. And it won't charge on my PC via USB, why? I always have to bring the charger wherever I go. I love the phone but it fell short on the most basic things.

  • Also have this kind of problem. Tsk.

  • Yes same here. It was so sudden. disappointed with this one

  • Yeah. Shame on lenovo. I never buy any lenovo again. Update s*ckss...

  • try to reset your phablet, and if your unfortunate you better flash/install stock rom.

  • What do you mean? Can you elaborate?

  • i have the same problem i cannot get through settings....pls help anyone?

  • You can set it in "Cellular network settings", set "Preferred network type" to "LTE/WCDMA/GSM Auto". Also, if the LTE connection in your area is not available don't expect to have an LTE connection, expect only 3G since it's mostly the available in lots of areas.

  • If you set Sim 1 to be the LTE, your Sim 2 will automatically set to 3G or below, but you can set your Sim 2 to be in LTE connection. It's like one at a time. You can't make 2 Sims both in LTE connection.

  • sim1 lte but sim2 only 2g.

  • I updated my Phab Plus. ..it's working good

  • S...it's working good

  • Can activate volte

  • Phab plus. ....how to activate multi touch

  • Same problem. ....pls reply

  • What is the purpose of the bottom of the screen? Pls.reply!

  • help plez.. Ican't set my preferred network type to LTE. it's not appear what can i do ?

  • I've bought this phone as a replacement for Samsung Galaxy S5, which is, according to reviews should have almost identical parameters. However, except for a big screen and quite good sound, the rest of features (after Samsung Galaxy S5) just below my expectations. - phone stuck quite often - big screen is often gets some random input and I cannot turn off my phone preventing calling to random numbers - at least once a 2-3 days I must restart it to be able to click anything on the screen (you remember, phone stuck quite often) - on-screen keyboard behaves much worse than an external, Bluetooth one. - camera, despite having big matrix, takes quite average shots in daylight and awful shots in low light cases. Overall - I'm quite disappointed /once again, I compared it to my previous phone, Samsung Galaxy S5/.

  • It is the same.

  • Yes...iam using it...

  • I started using Lenovo since 2014. What needs to be done before updating the firmware is to backup your data and do a factory reset every time you finish firmware update. Your smartphone will be perfect ...

  • 4g = LTE ?

  • I need lenovo pdm 70m original charger

  • Phan plus is very good n big phone.problem is only big size.if u have a heart to carry this size phone than its best.display is good.camera could be better with some apps.same for ear call volume.

  • Very poor camera ...So sad with the performance.

  • I also got same problem was ur problem solved???

  • Is it compatible with OTG?

  • after updating to the latest os, google play and the mic stopped working. what should i do?

  • yes.Play a song with your player.In the player go to settings and it's ok

  • Brother even i have the same problem . I replaced the phone with amazon.

  • Please check the date and time of your phone if updated.

  • Set your preferred network type to LTE.

  • 4g is LTE. English only please.

  • e-mail the website you ordered the product , secondly ask how to exchange the product , if none works go to lenovo service centre , if you brought it from a good website like amazon.in then they have an return policy where they will take the product and exchange with a better one..but get everything in mail

  • Hello what did u do my phone is 3g only don't know what to do😢😢

  • Does this phone works in the US with Verizon?

  • Yes my sim is LTE ready. I use LTE on my previous phone

  • Your simcard lte ready?

  • I have the same problem. The phone cannot detect LTE signals from Globe or Smart after'upgrading 5.1.1. The 4G network doesn't appear when searching for mobile network. LTE discovery app does not detect LTE signals. Any fix?

  • Adjust the font size to huge, still same size and hard to read in Google and cnn

  • Factory reset it.

  • Can anyone tell me how to fix my settings in lenovo phab.. I can't open it. It says. Settings has stopped.. And I can't open the setting anymore.... Anybody? Pls help. Sorry for my English. It's not my native language.

  • The best phone by Lenovo. Especially browsing the web. Wifi, gaming. Battery isn't removable but it has a decent charging time. Minimal and it last longer compared to Iphone6. Good cam quality. Overall 4.9 is my rating (highest is 5)

  • do u experience phone being slow whenever you navigate it? coz mine lags for about 2-3 seconds before it open another application.

  • Got this a week ago and updated it to 5.1.1 (didn't get option for >6). So far so good phone works without any issue, surprisingly 2GB of RAM is more than enough for multi-tasking and gaming with medium graphics. There seem to be many negative comments about this phablet yet I haven't encountered them, sounds more like bs. [My experiences] +screen size for media consumption +sound quality makes video watching immersive +for the most part smooth touch screen +perfect budget purchase for average gamers +no overheating after 3+ hours of continuous gaming +low amount of bloatware -heavy weight you need to lean hands when using it for a long time -camera is grainy in low light -fits in pocket but can cause discomfort when sitting -battery lasts 2-3 days of average use but could have been a little better due to screen size

  • Any Hope for VoLTE Support?

  • It works for EGYPT Thank you

  • If the updated v5.1.1 has error when launching Settings, Google play or any slowness when running apllication. Do a Hard reset with at least 60% battery power until the errors disappeared 1. Shut down the phone. 2. Press and hold POWER button for 5 to 10 seconds to enter the android root terminal menu(black screen) 3. then when the logo shows up, release only the POWER button. Hold the UP button until the "Android system recovery" menu stabilize(approximately about 11 to 14 seconds based on my experience). 4. Select "Wipe data/factory reset" by using "UP" button to navigate then press POWER button to select. 5. Then Select "Reboot System now" 6. If your phone still has error either in SETTING or Google play repeat the steps BUT rest it for about 30 minutes or more before do another hard reset since this is a linux based O.S. which has bugs but when repeating the execution, the o.s. or application will run smoothly.

  • my phab plus is 4g/lte enable, unit is good, no problem

  • My sim is LTE enabled. I'm getting LTE signal on other phones using the same sim. I even bought new LTE GLOBE and SMART sim. Still not working -_-

  • Just got my Phab 2 days ago. I love it though when searching contacts to send sms, it is delayed. Only big issue for me is the proximity sensor that doesn't work. While making or answering a call, the screen is still on so the volume, airplane mode, etc. whichever is on the from top slide menu, is being triggered since the screen gets in contact with ear / skin.

  • Do you get 4g signal in the 1st sim?where do you live?

I have tested the Jot Dash stylus on several other phones -- worked well on many phones. But some phones and some tablets, including Samsung Tab A 7 inch, have the same problem -- broken lines. *** I have tested the Jot Dash stylus on Huawei P8 Max -- it works beautifully. I looks like I may have to changed to Huawei P8 Max.

  • Its supports vr

  • I have purchased PHAB Plus on 28/07/2016 through Amazon.in. All the updates are downloaded and updated till date. But the front camera touch button ( Except buttons like settings, rear camera etc ) not working even after I reset the mobile with factory settings. Kindly assist to solve the problem.

  • I have Lenovo phab .. and there is an annoying issue .. I need your help.. The contact list always shown late .. there's a long delay before showing that list... And some times it doesn't appear at all..!!!

  • Maybe he is true he got marsmellow update... When many people say they got 5.1.1, i get it after 1 month .

  • I mean 'push' it to 5.1.1.

  • I don't think there's a Marshmallow update for this unit at the moment. The 1.5 GB update that someone else posted about is probably the 5.0 bug fix since he mentioned that he just bought the unit. And most new units should have to update multiple times on 5.0 before getting a @300MB update that will use it to 5.1.1. That's the last update AFAIK. On the post that after update, it will get stuck on the Lenovo screen. Leave it as such, that screen will stay for a long time but should ultimately be successful.

  • I got my Lenovo Phab plus update and it went off showing only the logo and never getting started.....please give tip to correct it

  • I dont get android m too.. (?)

  • I never got a mashmellow upgrade so far for my phab plus.. i would like to know how to upgrade

  • I have updated my phab plus to the latest software but unfortunately the device went off and never came back, it was only showing lenevo logo all time, Ihad to hard reset it by using the power button and volume, can anybody tell me if it's safe to install the software now again or not ! Thanks

  • Me too.did you find a fix?

  • Yes. It can upgrade to marsmallow but, i dnt download it on 5.1.1. I just remain it on lollipop 5.0 version. Because im scared about the news blogs that it has lots of bugs and problem. But i dnt know if this new update version is the one.hope not.hope theres someone can relate about this. Need help and tips. Because i had a problem already on FACEBOOK MESSENGER. the calls on headphones cant connect. It keeps on playing music .you just have to remove it first and insert the pin after you had a loud voice on tablet speaker. Huhuhu so mad. Version ; PB1-770M_S000156_150930_ROW

  • Hey, i buy this phablet last day, and ive a MARSMALOW UPDATE on my OS. on O.T.A. . Is It safe to download? It has 1500mb. I have an screen shot. I need an advice for safe bugs

  • I have Lenovo phab .. and there is an annoying issue .. I need your help.. The contact list always shown late .. there's a long delay before showing that list... And some times it doesn't appear at all..!!! Especially when I search for any one What do you think ?

  • Press power and UP volume button at the same time to hard reset.... Use volume rocker to choose RESET option and power button for OK. It will always fix bugs on phone using hard reset.

  • Hey Guys i have a problem in my phone .. the sound of ringtone is decreasing and not stable any help please ?

  • Is it upgradeable to marshmallow

  • Tried to reset it to factory default settings but still the same problem.

  • After the last update when someone calls me and i answer the call opens with loudspeaker by itself.

  • Hi guys, When I have missed call is there a way to find through which sim card it came from? It just stays as a missed call on my phone but no way to find out through sim1 or sim2. Some people don't have both my numbers and it is a little bit confusing for them.

  • After the last update my phone stopped ringing. Also I can not choose any ringtone.

  • To power on, or reboot when device hung - long press the power button for @10 seconds, works on all Android device AFAIK. For those asking whether it is good for gaming... good enough for casual games but not for graphics heavy ones, Snapdragon 615 is no longer cutting edge and the 2GB RAM doesn't cut it for graphics intensive games. Many of those graphics intensive games can probably run with minor issues as long as graphics is set to low or medium...

  • Please has Lenovo released updates for for Lenovo Phab Plus. That last update is having issues on my Phab plus

  • Today I have got my PHAB tablet but after charging for almost 5 hrs no display except some flash of lenovo logo is coming for few seconds ..unable to switch it off. Can anyone help how to switch it off

  • Can't wait to have the phab2 pro, it looks amazing

  • Its good, its also twin cell+tab screen is good. is also easy grip in hand.

  • can you give me a hand guys, I'm thinking which one to go for, phab or phab plus, the phab plus has a smaller battery and screen compare to the phab, my only concern on the phab is the 1GB of Ram, will it struggle on multitasking? tho i don't have that many apps. thanks

  • Its not recognizing 64gb SanDisk micro sd xc.

  • It's been a month since i bought it and i was surprised with its performance. I'm keeping this device with me for a long period of time, thumbs up Lenovo..... waiting for the phab plus 2 pro here in KSA I will defenitely grab one......

  • no. it's too big. I'm using this phone, and I'm getting a smaller phone for VR.

  • I never had a rebooting issue sorry to hear all these complaints....

  • After four months of use, Phab Plus experienced extreme overheating. It was hot enough to make items in my messenger back to become hot, too. I was waiting for the battery to explode. I realized that inserting any sim card causes the overheating. MSI-ECS changed motherboard and sim board but same overheating occurred and this time the phablet went dead. Afterwards, Gigahertz changed the mother board but it would auto-off. it was sent back to MSI-ECS. I find this phone dangerous to the user. Maybe it should only be used as a tablet, but this is just a hunch.

  • How to add FONTS and increase the size also

  • Best thing to do is ask for a replacement since you both it just 4 days ago!!! lol your now using your coconut shell at all hahhaha...

  • Absolutely the best phablet phone i have used so far! Thanks Lenovo for the great product. The battery lasts long and the pics are great

  • LPP is a good choiche if u want to use a phone at the same time a tablet. It has a great specs and superb camera too even in no light since the flash comes in dual tone. I wonder why others are complaining about the products when i find it very worthy. Anyway, own it and you will find out why i am so impressed with this giant phablet. I had been using it for almost a year now and i had never encountered any issues.

  • Not recharging , just 4 month old not worth buying ... seeking refund

  • Hi any updates for Lenovo vibe plus

  • 64 gb is max

  • It is charging very slowly

  • This phone has caused lots of problems. It is a phone rolled out hastily into the market without much testing. Back in March, an Official Update to this phone caused the SIM card to be undetected for more than 1 month. If you are to plug a earpiece to this phone, the phone will not ring through its speaker. An installation of the same APK on this phone is 3 times longer than it will takes of a xiaomi redmi 2 (which is a budget phone twice cheaper). For those affected, just to let you know that it is possible to get a full refund on this.

  • Almost a month using this phone, So far there's no problem incountered yet. I really like the Phablet, and the priced is reasonable for the specs. I only need is the 6.8" Display in 1920 x 1080, 32GB Storage, 3500mAh battery, The Dual Sim Slot and the 2GB of RAM with this 5 specs im a live.

  • Dears any suggestion my wife suddenly its not working any assist

  • ....i bought my lenovo phab one month ago...i dont know what happen i only off the switch now i cannot open ..i put charger no lights on...but my phab is full charge.....

  • Will any lenovo phab plus or phab plus 2 be released in Australia

  • Yeah You Can

  • Where is question

  • Micro sim not working. Is there any solutions to rectify this problem....??

  • Wait for the Mi Max

  • This only means its disposable :(

  • Can we use a micro USB keyboard on this so that we can edit MS Office..

  • Weak or no signal at SIM01 and no signal at all at SIM02 after upgrading to 5.1.1. Both SIM cards are tested OK at other phones.

  • The sound came silence always what the problem

  • There is no use of removable battery in this kind'a huge device think how big the battery is gonna be, and in my opinion the removable battery is kind'a late fashion item as the unibody design comes handy now days. so it's pretty cool

  • hi. ..I would like to buy lenovo phab plus. . by reading all reviews i get confused. can any one tell me the proper suggestion?

  • I was about to buy phab plus but the problem is about the battery. it's non removable. I wonder why they made such not removable battery. everyone wants removable battery.

  • I was wondering .. I have two lenovo charger One for lenovo phab @ 1.5 Am. Output And the other one is supposed to be for the phab plus And i found its output at 1 A only Is that true please .. ??

  • Battery drained atomic when working on browser,aaplication.my handset is becomes a new. have any suggestions are there.

  • mine couldnt read 64gb too maximum was 32gb anyway i sold it today

  • my notifications is not showing on top of the specific apps list... for example my facebook, i won't be able to know if i have notifications if not on the notification on top of he phone...

  • down.load.from.play.store.

  • After upgrading to 5.1.1 I can not hear the caller almost all. The volume is at its maximum.

  • Close dolby effect and ut will be fixed

  • 64GB is the maximum....

  • you need to download it from google play store.

  • Guys i cannot upload videos on facebook,does anyone here knows how to upload video in facebook using tha lenovo phab

  • guys, how i should install 128gb microsd on this phone? i put two but phone wont detect it

  • Is this OTG supported? As it uses a hybrid sim slot the issue for storage can be overcome by the usage of OTG but as per the informations I got this is not OTG supported as for PHAB plus the feature is available

  • Ring volume is automatically low.

  • Question: I cannot locate the file manager or documents in my phone.. it does not appear in the home screen..how is it?

  • you may want to rant to lenovo support instead, this site only gives reviews and news on mobile gadgets

  • Price wise..... i think it is not meant to play intense game. Those you might need a better phone with a higher price tag. But then if you are willing to part with a few more hundreds, you can buy yourself a ps vita and a cool camera. Sometimes games have bugs which causes power consumption and overheat, evesn you did not open that app.

  • If the admin of this page can here our cry please in a day how can I change my phone thrice all in the name of over hitting then loosing charge since the upgrade to 5.1.1

  • Please give us another update this last no please too much problem from phone overheat to hanging the phone and worst still led notification not sorted please do something ASAP

  • Please fix the mess since your last update to 5.1.1 power consumption too high the device over heats and the still no notification led why please fix these

  • And power consumption is too high

  • bad : I use it for few months,the reaction is really bad and slow for camera and apps especially when using whatsapp!! sometimes wait for more than 10 second re-open it, 2g ram really really not enough nowaday..... good : nice screen,size and price

  • Should I consider buying I just read your reviews its just not n option as per you As compared to Samsung is it worth buying

  • Its really a good gadget. Camera, speaker sound, battery life all good. Overheating problem when you play games on it, otherwise its cool for rest of activities. worth to its price... !!!

  • No it only supports upto 64 gb....well it says so on thw specs..anymore would not be acceptable or ubwoild find problems u dont want...

  • Omg.. its sound so worse.. its true.. iwant to buy this phone? Its recomended or not

  • Its really bad? All the opinions its true? I want buy this one or asus zenfone laser 2 6inch.. Whos bettr one?

  • Its all problems of the new update every Lenovo mobile is bad with 5.1.1 update. I recommend the mobile but don't update 5.1.1 wait untill they release marshmelo

  • See after update it sucks.. Now on 5.1.1, when people call you,, it will ring very very soft.. And furthermore,, the led notification is not fixed.. How do you know whether you have a missed call?? And the lenovo company still thinks that this can be used as a phone. And the alarm suprised me by ringing very very soft again. And i have set volume of ringtone and alarm to the maximum.. Well.. I think the lenovo company does not care.so this is just for entertainment. Some review say that if we are not happy with it then go and buy iphone or galaxy s7. Im here comparing it with smartphones of the same price ok.. If you say its good to have big phones to reduce eye strain and this is not for you too. I think android only have phone or tablet mode(if im wrong than sorry). So i think that android read it as a tablet.. Because of that, some words are even smaller than my small sized phone. It is quite small for a tablet and quite big for a phone. And this device is really slow. Battery is horrible. I play the dungeon hunter 4 graphics set to medium and still lag. And is very laggy in multiplayer. So this tablet is only good for videos.. If use wnt to use it as a main phone then dont buy.. I try to use it with one hand and it almost fall off my hand.. It is quite heavy to hold as a phone. And the software is not complete done.. Some features are experimental.. And the auto answer when lifted to ear is not working.. Try to swipe the screen to answer a call and see if your phab plus will fall off your hand or not.

  • Don't believe you coz I have bought this phone and negative comments here was all true...need technical support of Lenovo to release update that may somehow fix all these problems of phabplus

  • Yes,I'm really serious, buy Phab plus and you'll see the phone is completely ok, I bought it in Hungarian, model for the European market, people who complain may bought this phone on some stupid market .....

  • Hi any updates for Lenovo Phubplas

  • I've used the phone for about 4 months now and everything works fine. Although I've encountered some difficulties in focusing the camera but I've fixed it through opening the phone itself and clean the entire camera housing. I've watched a lot of movies and no issues at all.

  • Yes I had the same problem also

  • Amaze me that people did not buy this phone here and give bad comments, no this, no that, the phone is great if you do not mind all buy iphone for $ 800 and be overjoyed...

  • So how is it? OK to proceed download or not?

  • So how'she new software update? Please provide update

  • Phone looks good to me. I better call it a best portable tab rather than a Phab. Screen to Body ratio is too good. Guy who wanna have Huawei X2 like me will be very happy. Touch is better than K3 Note (my Previous Phone), Cam is mostly same alike. Found a bit heating issue while restoring big backups, updates etc. Batt backup is comfortable. Didn't liked the 2nd Sim & SD Card either or option. The phone didn't came with a screen protector, worried. Ordered a Tampered Glass but taking so long time to get delivered. Worried. Guys already using the Phab please let me know is the screen is scratch proof ? Fedup with Software Updates, Every time it eats the Update, take too long time to be operational.. 3 time Updates but still a new one popping up.. I doubt its 5.1.1 Guys already updated it (a 297mb Update) please let me know the performance.

  • So how is it? Is it OK to proceed download or not

  • it's Android update from lollipop 5.0.1 to lollipop 5.1.1

  • There's a new software update how is it? Is it OK? Hope someone can provide input whether positive or negative

  • I still need help !!!!!!! Hi all, i bought lenovo phab plus few months gao, device seems fine, there are 2 issues I am facing, 1, facebook app cut from the sides, cant see all, i tried switching it to smaller letters but still same, also while playing games, does provide all sounds of game compared to other devices, for example applauds. Anyone can help? may be its just me or some settings needs to be adjusted???

  • Will it get android m and future android updates??

  • I'm not satisfied phone always heating up and performs slow

  • use this device for 5 month.. very satisfy with the price that i paid... camera level, mid... no over heat issue.... no lag... big screen... overall I satisfied with this product.. the saddest part, my Touch screen crack and lenovo malaysia no ready stock and they want to keep my phone for 2 month to order and replace the screen.....

  • Used this Lenovo Phablet Plus for 3 months now and I'm impressed, was using iPhone 6+ for 11 months prev... Love my Phablet because it gives me what I want, loud sound on video and no difficult process to load video and or music. Camera is ok but thats the only real difference to me from my iphone 6+, very happy I changed phones....

  • Been using it for two months as a replacement of my broken screen Asus K019 phablet.. Updated firmware once.. Battery life is good, made the day with still some juice before my next charge.. Daily 3~4 hours use on 4G,3G,H+.No overheating issues, (I kept the screen brightness to a minimal) Camera and speaker not the best..but it will do compared to my asus 5mp.. The only thing i'm missing from my ol tab is dedicated dual sim and memory card slot.. worth the bucks u paid for it.. Cheers from Malaysia..

  • I'm using it here in Qatar and I must say so far so good I gut value for my money I've had it for two weeks now

  • My new phab plus is not supporting USB and no file manager in it and the PHAB is getting over heat while using like one hour also . I am not satisfied with this product .

  • Phab plus doesn't support selfie stick.......

  • This is so true...if they will not believe it's up to them to find out

  • No. Please don't go for it. It has a buggy UI. The battery of it is very low. Totally a waste of money. The processor is famous for over-heating. Cameras don't look good either. Don't go for it.

  • hi guys very odds to hears all ppl said 5.1.1 problem.... i got ll issues but after long 1hour format 100% is worker great.. touch wakeup responsive, hear answered workup, battery gud life..... note phab is not root since in my hand

  • This device is okay but for the next time we need a similar device with 6.98 inch 1440p display, 64GB internal memory, dual SIM card slots, NFC, Fingerprint scanner, Snapdragon 820 processor, better quality camera with big sensor and Schneider Kreuznach lenses, triple color calibrated LED flash, front camera flash, 4K recording ability, better optimized camera API, 4000mAh or higher battery, USB Type-C port, dual front firing stereo speakers and excellent build quality. Rest be assured I'm ready to pay even 49K if Lenovo makes such a device.

  • battery is very poor performance im getting only 6hrs..again i should charge....& automatically its going in to silent mode..its my experience ..i purchased from CAREFOURE DOHA QATAR

  • All mobile gets heating problem when used it used for hours. By just keeping the habit of Shutting down your Smart mobiles or Tablets during night times twice or thrice in a week will increase your instrument performance as well as life time. Thinks Smart

  • This phab is phabulous. I bought it and using it for 2 weeks and overall performance is good. I have been using sony ericsson xperia neo v for 2 years, and lenovo give same performance what sony mobiles delivers. No need to update software. Just use it as it comes. If we handle this smarter then this lenovo phab is a good choice.

  • If lenovo tech support is good why not but it's not so for me it's a no unless they do something about all costumer concerns about this phablet

  • Back read and you'll know

  • Can I go for it.

  • Can I go for it.

  • How is this Phab, I think I have to purchase it from amazon. Please let me know how is performance of this Phab.

  • That's true . updating makes it device worse

  • I had the same problem with my battery draining fast after the software update, but it seems that Lenovo has fixed this problem around 2 days ago. My battery life is now ok!

  • I would like to ask phab plus user here, I just bought one unit of this today. In the box only has phone charger,how about you guys? Or i've been "con"? I did asked the sales guy he said only has charger no earphone. Need hear from you guys. Thank you.

  • As reported by one of the Phab Plus users in the official Lenovo Community Forum: "I sent the tablet to Lenovo Warranty. They said that because of the upgrade to 5.1.1., the IMEI of the two SIM slots were deleted. Waiting for them to fix it." My question: Is it even possible to fix this issue without sending the unit back to Lenovo? IMEI numbers are unique per device. How can a new firmware update assign unique new IMEI numbers per affected device if the original cannot be recovered?

  • upgrade complete at the latest version today still 5.0.2

  • Hi everyone(ALL THOSE WHO R CRAZY TO UPDATE THEIR SOFTWARE) I would like to tell u all abt software update in smartphone. DO NOT DO IT ever. This s wat i heard frm smartphone software programmer. Mobile cannot be compared with laptop or desktop. All the companies (android) when they make a new phone as per the current software(jellybean, mashmllw) available and the smartphone only best suited for the particular software only. So whenever u update ur software, smartphone hav difficulty to synchronise wit the new software and started showing issues. It s corporates gimmicks to sell ur old phone and buy a brand new TNX

  • Overall this fab is good but front camera is average and after updated it draining battery fast even in stand by mood.

  • Worst device ever!! After update to 5.1.1 sim card unable to detect!! And they habe a very poor customer sevices!! They even try to lie to me saying called but none answer!! Send in to service center from 1st april till now no news no nothing!! I swear this will be the first and the last lenovo device i'll ever buy!! Waste my S$400 and my freaking time!!

  • Don't buy this tablet. After update to 5.1.1. Its getting hot and battery drained fast - would not recognise SIM card for about 30 seconds, then accepts it, then drops it, and so on, with error message on top bar. In Settings, SIM Management, can a...

  • I went the notice by upgrading to the latest version of the system, someone did?

  • Hi there I'm sorry to say it's my worst choice, I've never had a low quality device like this. Performance is good only on advertise paper but in real time it's so poor. I just bought it 4days ago and just one day used and found out it could not my phone I'm not playing game with phone No listen music or watching movie Just for checking resived mail and little text to friend And also sometimes use dictionary Let I tell u ... GPS is very poor ..lost signal all the time even u r in open area Touch screen very very poor exactly for top corners Delay to much to understanding your click Very hot during charging time Super slow in internet or installing software Ear speaker is not enough strong Power bottom is wrong place, when u hold your phone this bottom pressed unwanted. This divice run away from your hand easily then get damage

  • Don't buy this tablet. After update to 5.1.1. Its getting hot and battery drained fast - would not recognise SIM card for about 30 seconds, then accepts it, then drops it, and so on, with error message on top bar. In Settings, SIM Management, can actually see SIM1 fading in and out. Lenovo suport is silent for this problem and gives no soluționarea.

  • Yes mine too. Double tap is unresponsive, now i found that accessibility cannot be turned on at all. Led notification never works. (Phab will auto answer when lifted to your ear) feature never work. And the fonts are not really big as what the other users think. Try to open google chrome and see.

  • Mine after update can't find signal 4g if I put at 3g it's OK if I restart again can't find again signal. Already format same too...

  • Every time I swutchyit off, it loses the time and I have to set it again. Us three a work around to resolve this?

  • The same problem as you. Did you solved it? I tried to contact Lenovo Service in Romania, but no answer yet.

  • factoru reset...solved

  • I bought this phone from amazon, its a true companion for any occasion for office, for outing, for parties. Very good camera, handy and slim, good battery, good design with blended edges and screen brightness is good in sun light. the most important is as a tab this the only device to have a 13mp and front 5 mp camera and this being a tab fits into our pocket. love this device. only need OS updates from Lenovo.

  • Wondering what tech support of lenovo is doing right now to solve the issues...

  • Latest upgrade to 5.1.1 has resulted in fast battery drain, even on standby.

  • lenovo phab plus support otg?

  • I have the same issue

  • Great build just lack of tech support and update that will fix bugs and lags.....this xxl phone should be fine though...I also like big screen so this works for me:)

  • this is really very good xxl phone... only little lags. average camera. performance ok. phone finishing fantastic. looks royal.... antutu benchmark get 31000 points.. display is yellowish.....!! but ok for 15000 rupees..

  • Wish this was possible. On my phone, since the SIMs are not even being recognised anymore, the mobile and network settings are not even available. It is as if the phone is SIM-free.

  • Where's the after sales servicof Lenovo? Common we spend money and this is what we get?

  • I faced the same problem. For a temporary fix. Change sim setting from LTE to WCDMA (3G) and the problem will be fixed. The internet is slow though.

  • Downloaded upgrade to 5.1.1 and experienced SIM and memory card failure. Contacted Lenovo Mobile support here in the Philippines 3 times - no reply. Not even an acknowledgement. After spending so much in marketing this product, maybe Lenovo should have just spent more on quality assurance and customer support. Or on building a better product.

  • I am facing the same sim card problem after recent update. Keep searching and flickering of the sim card icon. Gave up. Lenovo pls rectify the problem....

  • This sucks my first lenovo phone screen sensitivity really a problem so unresponsive and slow

  • After the most recent update, my SIM card cannot be detected. The Icon keep flipping to search for SIM card and No SIM card constantly. What a phone! Please do not roll up updates if they are not tested!!!

  • Yes hope lenovo have an update to fix it

  • Screen touch not responsive very disappointing :(

  • Screen sensitivity very poor double tap on screen not always working....hope there's an update to solve this issue

  • Please, after the last system update the volume of ringing is low even i set it on its maximum volume, after every standby u must adjust day and time and the network connection,the battery life is getting down fast, the last is when download the last update the phone is getting too hot.

  • yesterday update... 5.1.1 and result was.awful i need to format near 1 hour... then gud.result with awesome baterry life....

  • I've just got a firmware update. its not android 6 though. its android 5.1. better than nothing.

  • The SD memory card doesn't work.... It's wrote reformat SD memory ... What is the solution.... I tried to Formatting many times ... And nothing happened....

  • Yap we have the same problem with date. Everytime we restart the phone

  • I already did,setthetime to network, but ocationaly when i reset the time and date reset also. I also tried hardware reset but itsno use

  • Some when i reset the phone the date and time reset also to 1970

  • I also notice extraheat during standby even the phone is on my pocket and the overheat was confirmed when I unstall DU batery saver, the keep telling that phone is overheating even without activity.

  • The phone is great, large screen perfect, very good camera with dual tone led ligth, good at nigh shooting compared to others, good sound, the wifi is good even a distance from the router. Im not a gamer so i have no comment on phone performance on gaming. I string suggest to lenovo to add anti-spamming features on its messaging and call blocking feature for its dealer.

  • How I wish lenovo could include anti spam features on its messenger and call block feature on its dialer. Just like Samsung Notes.

  • I think theres a problem with the katest OS, some when I restart the phone the date and time will reset back to 1970. It happen to me three times. I hope lenovo will fix it.

  • The name of my contacted dosnt apper... Only numbers ?!!

  • I just buy this Phab Plus about 2 day from Pc Depot Penang, Malaysia. Before this i use Meizu M1 Note, Phab Plus front camera not to good, Meizu M1 Note is more better. The sound from back speaker also not good. I just like because Phad because have big screen. For me this phone no have any special only big screen. Hope Lenovo make this Phab more better from now model. Keypad Keylock same like Lenovo A880... To bad no improvement. I still never try the SD card slot, i hove no problem at all. My Meizu more better from this and more chipper.

  • For screen flicker problem, install screen filter and set to about 50% brightness and it will be ok. I use darker screen filter and 50% setting seems to work well and is able to stabilize the screen. The play store is so funny. I click to download multiple apps and leave it there. After I go back and unlock the screen, it only start to install the first one. Same with updates as well. And my browser is so unresponsive, always cannot open even it shows full wifi signal. The play store is also like this. The camera is very clear but ovrheats the phone quite fast. Software updates is still fixing bugs. Im waiting for marshmallow. Lenovo launcher is not nice and horrible. Why dont give us the pure android lollipop launcher. I like samsungs touchwiz because it is fast. I mean lenovo ia adding that launcher which is a bloatware and i want to uninstall it. It also dont have a performance mode like asus or xiaomi.

  • I have had this phone after using huawei Samsung and Sony and I really find lenovo phab plus the best in price and battery and even design .. I recommend this phone quite confidently

  • the battery 3500mah is not enough to use...did i do switch wrong anything?

  • Hi all, i bought lenovo phab plus few months gao, device seems fine, there are 2 issues I am facing, 1, facebook app cut from the sides, cant see all, i tried switching it to smaller letters but still same, also while playing games, does provide all sounds of game compared to other devices, for example applauds. Anyone can help? may be its just me or some settings needs to be adjusted???

  • That this price is good But some iss 1- applock not working some time * main issu 2- whatsapp & other app noticefication nor show proparly * but its ok of thos price 3- and all app only download googleplay .otherwise u getting apps other mobile those apps not working or crres How to slowr applock probem

  • hi.. you can update OTA at setting about tablet .. system update.. easyy.. if u hardcore player, site at forum lenovo ru.. is officially site russia..

  • Hi what site i will get the update of this phab?

  • Lenovo is sending out a prototype. And it seems that most users have different problems and I don't know whether mine is a software or hardwAre problem.

  • I had use it after a few days. I found 3 problems. The led notification for email is not working( i dont know calls or message notification is working or not because i use it as a tab). The double tap to wake screen is not always responding. I need to touch up to 6-10 or even more to wake my screen. AND my screen is slightly flickering. I mean the brightness increases slightly when the screen shows bight colours (bright colours occupy more than50 precent) and will decrease slightly when showing darker colours. I sent to warranty and complaint about the display problems and the double tap to wake screen problem. I wait for 2 weeks, and when I go and take it, I see that my screen protector was lost. They say they change my touchscreen and touchpad and none of my problems are solved. I know the display problems are barely noticeable in bright places but I like gaming in the dark and it was so uncomfortable for me. I didnt expect this phone to work superbly but i want it to work properly. I didnt expect it to have wonderful specs. I have even low end samsung phones. They are slow but are problemless. I have tested core prime, tab p7000, corby 2, champ and my friend's j1 ace. THIS IS MY FIRST LENOVO PHONE AND SO PROBLEMATIC. IT EVEN LAGS THE FIRST DAY I SCROLL AROUD THE MENU AND OPEN THE SETTINGS AND ALSO LAG IF YOU OPEN GALLERY,GMAIL, and some other normal apps. And even the core prime opens gmail faster than it. .I dont even think it worth the price. My father had a zenfon 2. It is even cheaper and comes with NFC and corning gorilla glass. Furthermore, it scores about45000 in antutu benchmark and my phab plus only scores 31000. The asus company even announced a marshmallow update in april and our software updates are only fixing bugs? .But actually zenfone 2 also simply overheats and have problem with calls. Phab plus have powerful speakers as well. Anyone having my problems? [email protected]

  • i use phab plus 3monthss... i dont have any buggies as all.ppl.said... do update ota newest is 1229.... camera use cera.zoom app solved launcher app ass zen ui solved music app shutter plus solved simcard 1 is.micro sim simcrd 2.is.nano/sdcard interchange remember setting simcard at sim manage .... do ota to solved.most buggies erorr.. i felt lenovo do best device.. eyees fatique have solved.and no more eyes sore.... good job lenovo... hope i can be loyall phab plus flagship in future.. same sammy and apple fan boy...

  • Hi I am using lenovo phab plus. By reading reviews I bought this. But after starting usage I am struggling with its problem. That is when ever I start cemara or net it's getting terrible heat. What is the problem ?

  • I used from 1 week phab plus but 2nd sim slot is not working .....

  • Correction it does not share nano sim with microsd. If both share please tell me how

  • Its ok

  • Definitely a fail product from Lenovo... bought a weeks ago and I found several severe bugs that make me think it's a half done product. Unresponsive touch panel in some upper area (fix it with Touchscreen Booster app, it seems working well), Cannot read 64gb microsd (if it can I assure you that several files will missing, use max 32gb instead), Laggy launcher & system software (how come mi4i which has almost the same hardware specs can performs much better much smoother ??) WhatsApp notification or any other messenger seems delayed / not shown (sometimes) until you unlock your Phab Plus (this is really funny...) Stuck in Android 5.02 which is really really buggy (could be forever...) since this Phab couldn't meet targeted sales so badly in China. Just hoping for update to fix those bugs (which I rely on Lenovo...OMG) It also has camera shift issue, sim 2 problem (sometimes), slow charging, average quality camera, unreliable lens focusing on taking videos, microsd issue (you should format microsd inside the phone), PC connection issue, etc. Build quality is decent from outside, although I doubt they use good quality component inside. Other Chinese smartphone company like Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, etc. has already proved that most of their products has good quality component inside.

  • I was using this phablet from last 3 months, and didn't feel problem. But last weekend it fall from my hand and screen got broken. I checked with lenovo store for the replacement of the broken screen but still they don't have spare parts of this phone. If someone know from where can i get new screen please reply. Thanks, Sidd

  • Well said...

  • Dear I am using this mobile cum tab.....single problem in network is very serious issue in this model....I use this device in 3 countries with 8 mobile net work....but its reception problem is very serious issue....it's not working like a mobile....u can use it like tablet....No Sim card work in this device....I waste my money

  • Well it does have dual-SIM functionality. Just remove the memory card and put the second sim in that slot. This phone has a shared 2nd SIM and memory card slot. But still I would say that there's ain't no need to buy a phablet this big unless you are a old grandpa with really bad eyesight.

  • you get the cover in ebay and amazon. dont go for a tempered glass because the screen is big the glass falls off most of the times. but you are welcome to use a screen guard. this is if you have not ordered it yet...

  • After a week living together with Lenovo phab plus I have to say that return to something less than 6.8 inches is impossible. Is little bigger than 6's but what it offers less eye fatigue and that is is incredible. It is super small for a tablet and not too large to use as a main phone. The processing power of the processor is very good for an average user although the is at midrange. After four successive upgrades of firmware the camera corrected and now shoots perfect pictures. The almost stock Android environment plays very smoothly and without stuttering. The available memory of 2 Gbyte is between 0.9 to 1.1 gigabytes. In 4G network plays very well and can easily be switched from one card to another and of course it turns the other sim card to 2G. Battery although it is only 3.500 milliamperes it has incredible autonomy Despite the huge screen. However, it gives me much more autonomy of my samsung note4 and the my Asus zenfone 2. Now compared p8 max ( that I lived with for 2 weeks and turn it back cause the battery was not charging ) Lenovo Phab Plus has half price and offers almost the same but the most important of all is that it supports the band 20 at 800 MHz, something that p8 max does not support and it is very important for 4G coverage in europe. Wrapping up I will say that the only thing I am missing is the dual SIM Full active feature that my Asus Zen fone 2 and P8 Max have. I wish Lenovo at near feature to bring us one Ph ablet in Hi-End category that features a a huge screen of 6.8 inches.

  • I am using and its awesome.waiting for cover and screen protector?

  • For me this mid range Lenovo Phab Plus phone tablet is a one of the best.Don't asking for higher specs like IPhone 6S or Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge.

  • wtz going on..... Amazon is selling this tab at 20,990 Here it self GSMARENA page add is post on top RS 14,999. Lenovo store is selling at 17,999. can some one tell me why are they playing this game. please do not buy this phone its worth to buy at 14,999 or less please see below posted opinion by (Lenovo phab)

  • I was that one too. Amazon.in for sometime were actually selling the phab for a low price...

  • try pressing the power button for 1-2 minutes.

  • I received mine yesterday and while using it, it suddenly died. Battery was full. Could not turn it on. Tried switching it on today morning, after pressing the power button for about 2 minutes, it came to life. So far no problem after that

  • Bought the lenovo phab plus today suddenly the phone just die. Any solution.

  • Bought the lenovo phab plus today suddenly the phone just die. Any solution.

  • No fast charging in phab plus

  • I cant use both slot for simcards as whenever i inserted both sim, one of the sim will lost the signal. What happens actually

  • is this good to play high graphic games ?

  • Is front end interfaces similar to the Galaxies? Thanks

  • 6.8" is the best ratio for mobility for someone that needs big screen. In europe the only option is lenovo phab plus (a midranger) and I just ordered it as is the only 6.8" that supports Band 20 at 800Mhz in Europe at 299€. Huawei P8max has almost double price at 650€ and is not supporting the band 20. I already own a Zenfone 2 5.5" (witch is far faster) and a sony xperia c5 plus 6" but with so small screens is difficult to do many tasks without getting to my 9" windows based Tablet or Laptop. After 5.5" i need a small bag as it can not fit in my pocket. To size is not a big problem and you get less eye strain with the larger screen. I would prefer to well spent my money on a phab plus with better cpu/ram/battery/camera but that will not happent as it seems for 2016. I hope next year Lenovo to built a better Phab Plus in specs or Huawei a better P10Max model next year (and I would but it with happiness) as this years options are only lenovo phab plus and P8max that is not supporting the important band 20 for europe.

  • yestday i post saying Amazon is selling this product at 14,999 Lenovo store are selling at 17,999 some has DELETE the post...... GSMARENA not fair

  • I would to know how come? with this now phone with advanced futre can not sent mail contain more than 8 photo, in case sumsonge tab have the ablity to send e-mail contain more than 10 photo , the phone dose not have silent mode ..... Please support me if iam right or i can not deal with phone

  • Why r u saying so Howz t phone' performance

  • Why r u saying so

  • Please do not buy this phone..... very soon the price will dip down.......

  • But those hip huggers look ugly, there's no way to carry such a phone if someone wears skinny jeans.

  • about volume increase issue i called cm and they told me to make factory reset and problem solved

  • The size at first seems to me huge and I also arranged hip hugger its been more than week I purchased this gadget and now I am freely pocketing it in my jeans front pocket yeah though it peeps out a little from my pocket ... guess it senses the world for me

  • I think you need to setup your APN again this device support LTE band 7(2600) for Rogers Canada network.

  • I love it..

  • Let me tell you first hand that the battery saver mode sucks big time. it disables background data completely. rendering your mobile totally useless for playstore, brrowsing etc...

  • after reading the comments. it also has a battery saving option. try it. drags the battery for another half day if not more.

  • It takes 1.5A curent up to about 80%, then it drops to 1A up to 90% and then lingers to 0.8A to get full. It takes about 2h20min to full.

  • This phablet is quite a performer. It has the same hardware as my Xiaomi Mi4i, Snapdragon 615, Adreno 405, 2GB ram, FullHD screen. Antutu 6 score is the same 30100. But the battery has enough energy for whole day. It lasts for a whole day of facebook, videos, movies from the internal memeory and from a streaming service, more than 10 hours of entertainment. It has OTG, plus the 32GB internal, plus the microSD slot shared with sim2. I am wandering if the hardware is the same, and the size difference is huge, the 5inch phone is nearly half the size of the Lenovo, why the battery is only 11% bigger with all that space available? Anyways, is a very good device for the price. There is nothing more you would need right now in a tablet. Perhaps only the Yoga 2 model can outperform in terms of battery life, but I don't know about the screen, the Phab screen seems to be better. Not very bright, but more than ok, viewing angle as large as possible and contrast not fading with angle. The feel is also incredible, the sleek unibody adds to the general feeling that you have a premium device. At this moment, Feb 09, 2016, I think this is the best device in terms of price/performance ratio.

  • Very good phone: big display, processor, camera, battery, dual sim, etc. - all the specifications are well-balanced for those who want all-in-one gadget. The final verdict: price/quality is optimal. I strongly recommend!

  • Bought one for my beloved. give you an update by Sunday the 14th. would get it delivered today. what else do you want to know in the meanwhile

  • As there is no review for the phone (or phab) yet, how about the battery performance, would the 3500mAh fit to such big screen? What is your experience of you people who bought this one?

  • Hi, Even I want to purchase same model in golden color. So could you please let me know from where did you purchase it....

  • 5% to 100% how much time does it takes I think lenovo should bring new version in phab lenovo plz make my dream phone in phab as following marshmallow,3Gb ram,160 internal memory,dual sim 4G,16 mp rear and 13 mp front led flash. led screen

  • Camera is good in day light... In case you want to have a pic in the dark night than do on led flesh on permanent base...results are very good.

  • Hi... I want to know, how long it take for fully charges from 15% battery shows. As it say "fast charging" * need you guys experience before consider to buy it.

  • Guys, does it support Heroes of Might and Magic III or not? cause the game only for tablet not phone. please reply, anyone who have Lenovo Phab Plus. Thanks

  • What? You use handbag to carry around your phone......lol..

  • I respect your opinion guys, but for me I like the dimensions of this phone for browsing and reading e-books, I didn't put it in my pocket I Use a handy bag for it. I hope lenovo will upgrade processor and memory...

  • Look it's a phone. It's a tablet. Oh it's a big retarded phablet. Good luck while walking around with it in your pocket. Seriously how do you guys carry this phablet? Do you guys walk around wearing those big ugly cargo pants or carry it in some kind of stupid looking purse?

  • It stops connecting from the wifi..need your suggestion.thankyou

  • It stops connecting from the wifi..need your suggestion.thankyou

  • Very good in offline GPS. I use it many time.

  • I can not see our mother language font, pls help me to suggest ,how to root this tab? Which soft ware should I use to root?

  • Try reformatting your micro sd card using laptop in e-fat format then re-insert it again.

  • Me dont have this problem. Date is correct after reboot

  • Tell me about the camera plz, its good or No ??

  • Me too have this problem

  • Great device indeed with nice specs and average price

  • mine the same problem

  • Any idea about the GPS ? Does it support offline GPS, i.e navigation with maps like Sygic even without turning on the data.

  • i dont have this problem at all. what is your rom?intl or cn?

  • does anyone know how to set the message barring feature of this unit?

  • same issue... just set to "network time"

  • Yu must Reset to factory default in recovery..

  • I noticed that when I receive a call while other applications are running, the call screen goes behind the running apps and I had to individually close the other apps to be able to take the call. Also, when I have a call and put the phone against my ear, the screen remains active and apps get launched unintentionally

  • My friend I think you are not inserting sim card so its not able to read current date keep the sim card inseted then it should set the current date automatically

  • Anyway, if you see in the most bottom when you open settings, it said "about tablet" while in my z3 compact it said "about phone". So I think, in default, android read the device as tablet , not phone

  • Just received today from online shop. This is the best companion for my z3 compact and perfect replacement for my fonepad 7. My z3c for daily phone, message and social media, whilephab plus for media video and gaming include playbook. So far so good. Only downside is its quite hot if use it in quite long time

  • do any one have this problem, every time i restart the device the time and date resets to 1 jan 1970. i got the 2 updates till 151111. any fix or solution.

  • Decided to try the Phab Plus as compared to the other tablet phones, this one has Dolby Atmos and a Full-HD screen. So far, I haven't regretted my purchase. The phone is incredibly thin and sexy in appearance, however, it is really slippery to hold if you do not have the rubbery casing. Due to the size of this phone, I only intend to use it more as an entertainment device first and a phone second. Although this phone is advertised as having dual SIM slots and an MicroSD slot, you can either put in one MicroSD and one SIM card or 2 SIM cards. There is no way to put in 2 SIM cards and a MicroSD as it is a shared tray. However, the SIM slot is nicely designed as it can accommodate either a MicroSD or a Nano SIM (in one part of the tray) and the other part is a Micro SIM tray. Regarding the Dolby Atmos speaker, it is one of the loudest phones I've ever heard. My first encounter with raw power of the Dolby Atmos was when I set the alarm of the phone the next morning. Normally, it would take me 3 alarm rings to wake me. However, with the Dolby Atmos, things were about to change that.........All of that!!! At 6am on the dot, the earth-shattering alarm woke the hell out of me and my wife so much so that I quickly tried and figure out how to disable the other 2 alarms before it rings again...I was too shocked and go back to sleep after that and I've never dared to use the Phab as an alarm clock again. Pros: Nice colours Brilliant display and resolution Fast zippy response with games, videos and internet access Extremely loud speaker Didn't encounter the reduced ring-volume as reported by others. I downloaded a lot of loud ringtones from Zedge and that may have helped. Cons: Too unwieldly and too slippery to hand-hold without casing The screen is not entirely black as compared to an OLED screen Camera focusing is too slow and shutter lag is almost 1 sec.....

  • me too

  • i still same problem

  • just placed order from indonesia local e-shop; and still waiting... I just impulsive buyer, currently I am using sony z ultra and the reason i bought phab plus cuz price is attractive with 220usd; hope this massive screen phab is good

  • Indeed. I, personally do not consider this a phablet and no one should, actually.

  • You have something is setting related to protect hearing make it inactive . I was facing this issue with some mobiles when I bought them, after that I discovered that this is an option of the phone

  • Wow a 6.8 inch phablet, seriously Lenovo what's wrong with you, it is almost just 0.2 inch less from being a tablet. I used to think that Lumia 1520 is huge and unwieldy but seriously this phone just redefines unwieldiness. How s someone supposed to carry it around? Good luck while shoving this phablet in your pant pockets, and beware, never ever try to shove it down your back pocket or else you will end up walking in a quite funny way.

  • me too 2 updates and the problem with voice still !!!

  • i updated two times till now but the decreasing volume columns still exist

  • I just bought this phone yesterday. I was really taken with the specs. Today, as I am exploring my phone, it kept turning off. I already set the Sleep option to 5 minutes inactivity. But still, it kept on suddenly turning black and I had to wake it up every so often. Do I have to bring this back to the store for them to check it?

  • Apdate to the latest version of the android software and the problem will be disappear

  • Not having scratch resistance glass ??? correct

  • i have the same problem and i got 2 updates until now but nothing fixed this problem :(

  • Strange when certain features turned on, the camera focusing slow to a crawl. hope Lenovo can improve with firmware update.

  • I already bought the device and it has been a fine experience ... However the phone is far from perfect, for instance the device front headset grill is just a bit mediocre and of course lenovo still provides upgrades from time to time and the camera although 13 MP is disastrous in low light conditions ... True I bought the device for 999/- AED ( CHECK IT UP ) and for its price its an amazing experience ...

  • Get a OTG(On The Go) Cable!(And connect a Thumbdrive to it)

  • Ringtone columns getting decrease automatically after receiving the call.

  • Yes if you like and able to use this phablet its a good idea. Its a little too great for one hand usage but its definitely worth its price. With over average specs its a really nice phone. And glad to Lenovo 98% their devices is dual sim.

  • I just bought this phab plus yesterday...at first I feel impressive with the size of it...when I turn on the phablet for the 1st time...I want to insert my micro sdxc 64GB by Sandisk and to use it but unfortunately the phab cannot detect the sdxc..a message appear says blank SD card or unsupportive file...and then I change to micro sdhc 32GB by Sandisk Ultra...finally the phone detect the micro sdxc...it looks like there is certain micro SD can be inserted inside the phab...

  • very nice, it has dual sim but if u plan to expand the memory other sim is disabled it will be use for memory... but the advantage is the internal is already 32gig.... over all very nice and fast phone good for gaming

  • how how the phone? is it oke n worth to buy

  • already available...i got mine from lenovo shop at digital mall sec 14 PJ. also available on-line @ lelong.com.my

  • have found the solution to the problem...use only San Disk SD card and no more then 8GB size...

  • when it available in Malaysia

  • been using this phone for about a month now. still getting frequent SD card read problem..esp when rebooting the phone, will get message saying SD card damage, asking to reformat. i have changed 3 SD cards, all also same ... does not happen with my other phones. Lenovo please do a firmware update to correct this ...

  • SD card detected. Used Phab Plus for past 10 days didn't find any lag.

  • Is there any problem detecting sd card? Any lag on this phone?

  • What country did u buy it? Cuz he specs say it does use same lte 4g frequency

  • supported usb-otg?

  • Very lovely phone with a huge screen, little bit more glossy on the back side making it difficult to hold but still managable with a silicon cover . Camera good , good speed with most of my apps installed & 4 multimedia games . Only problem is you cannot use dual sim with the sd card it can be best of the three... Lenovo must have thought of this ...Overall a good phone at this price

  • Beware buyer in USA this phone does not support USA freq for LTE I have one and with att/T-Mobile no LTE operation-This company needs to add USA freq support

  • will it be available in Ukraine? thumbs up to lenovo you guys should improve the cam quality in term of ''photo density and auto focus'' though never the less am getting this phab...

  • it already is

  • Are you for real?? Meizu's Design is ripped from iPhone and everyone knows that. Dont be a fool.

  • Will it be availabke in the philippines?

  • The Goods: Big screen Thin body Metal Casing Reasonable price positioning Android Kit Kat (upgradeable to Marshmallow as they said) The Bads: Grainy picture Slow camera response Camera take off alignment pictures (what you frame from the screen is not what you get from the actual photo as the alignment if out) Video focusing is poor Currently no phone cover or accessories available to purchase (Lenovo should have bundled it together) Internal system memory consumes up to 6.5GB No default file manager 2 GB RAM 32 internal memory Dual Sim (but pointless if one uses a SD Card for memory expansion as it share one of the sim location) In a nutshell: It can be a great phone+tablet, if Lenovo has looked at every angle of the phone. So far, more downsides than ups!

  • Nice phone, light for the size. 2gb is good enough for opening all you want. screen is good. speed is just ok, not fast but not slow. You really need an iring or any other grip on the back, with that the phone can be used with one hand when you use the zoom feature which lets you reduce the size of the usable screen to fit you hand. It is easy to use this feature just draw a C on the screen in any app. The only thing I do not like is the dialer, the samsung dialers are much better.

  • What a pity No 3GB or 4GB RAM like ASUS Handsets & Tab..2GB RAM isn't good enough for 2SIM Card mobile and with Android OS

  • Only camera to dark and not good quality.. Other ok for me

  • LOL, check out Meizu MX3 design and then look back to iPhone 6, did you just say Apple never copy others?

  • MR.PW you just go on making shit over here instead of giving a valuable comment. And fyki iPhone never copied ny1. Its just that it has less features and releases them very late.

  • Got new one toooooo good

  • I am from SVK i.e. Slovak Republic. Working as a mobile phone sales man. Or customer advisor. Lenovo are really good phones with excellent prices. Outstanding most other brands compared to specs/price. 99% of my customers have zero problems with Lenovo. Per year only like 1-2 comes back as customer was unsatisfied. Rest are totally happy with their products.

  • No, this is for people like me who want a compact device with a big screen not primarily to use as a phone but for better web browzing, video and gaming experience on the go. For 5.5 screen you have plenty of choices

  • If iphone can copy samsung and htc, why can't others.

  • Yery lovely phone

  • Yery lovely phone

  • Really STUPID of Lenovo to launch this unit in hurry in the Malaysian market before really testing it out properly. One word to say about this phone, INSTABILITY..!!! It doesn't seem to recognized the phone contact in your SIM Card even though the Sim Contact only selection menu is selected. Secondly, it doesn't even support 16GB SD Card and prompts you an error saying your SD Card is damage and need to be formatted. So guys, backup your contents before plugging in your SD's to test... your content might go corrupted. Thirdly. even though it is FullHD, but for HD 1080 60fps, it is not supported. Really poor of Lenovo... so much of rebranding....

  • Guys! I just found out that you can use the PHAB before anyone else does. Check it out -: - I think this is the best opportunity to experience the new upcoming phone without buying it.

  • It htc design plus Google nexus 6p...

  • Why is lenovo beginning to copy iphone's design.... I was interested but thanks to this iphone wannabe design, i will stick to my sony xperia z ultra. Sigh...

  • Yery lovely phone

  • First you need to know what 2G/&3G/&4G frequency bands are available in Uganda, your country. This can be done in two ways, check with service provider companies (people who supply sim cards for unlocked phones), and here in gsmarena.com also have a page dedicated for such information. Secondly, confirm that the device you're trying to buy support those frequencies. Again this can be done from the site, but more importantly check with the seller you want to buy the product from, that the device support these frequencies. Thirdly, about warranty. Check with LENOVO representative in your country on the availability to claim warranty, and where. Last but not least, always buy from AUTHORISED RESELLER, or at least a big trusted seller, instead of falling to pretty discounts and smelly bonuses from otherwise shady unheard of trader.

  • ebay is just a marketplace where in you can buy items, but there is a specific seller who can provide you the warranty receipt. and for warranty it is not ebay who handle or cover, its the manufacturer or the seller itself.

  • iPhone 6 Ultra Plus?

  • just got one ...a really beautifully crafted phone. just one major flaw, camera pics are not up to standards despite having 13MP, loses out to my xiaomi mi4i...but otherwise, a very beautifully designed phone even though one may say that it looks like a big iphone 6 plus...

  • I have booked Lenovo Phab Plus thru Amazon and awaiting... I love lenovo! hoping phab plus will satisfy my expectation! Having finger crossed!

  • looks like an iphone 6 tbh

  • Lenovo is the best phone comparatively. Excellent with no problems. I own P70 & soon will buy Vibe P1. The camera, dual sim, battery capacity, price are all exceptional .

  • dont buy anything from ebay .. service center not recover any warentty purchaged from ebay

  • lenovo have heating issue very much

  • Phablet/mini Tablet screen are very prone to scratched from wider exposure. Why not adding Gorilla glass screen protection ?

  • But you have no idea how easy it is to create custom ROM's for Lenovo-based Android. That's why more than 10+ ROM's are already available for the Lenovo K3 Note.

  • never Lenovo have no support and worst software dont buy

  • am from UGANDA but am gonna buy it online , can I get it from ebay? can I access it from my country Uganda when already unlocked?. cause many phones from abroad are locked. please help me on that.

  • I am waiting for long time in kuwait release i love this phab plus by lenovo guys pls advice for release date in kuwait thx

  • Guys is this better than the z Ultra am already using... Please help looking for an upgrade

  • will it kill you if you make it dual SIM with 128GB extrnal memory card, higher battery life These phone companies never make the complete phone at any price!!!

  • It has the CDMA?? It has listed on Amazon and says that it has CDMA. Pls check?

  • not ur money bro..lol

  • So you enjoy charging your phone twice a day? Good luck with that.

  • I can't seem to find anywhere to buy this? Any suggestions on a seller that ships to the US? Thanks

  • Among all new comers Lenovo is the leading one and now to grab your hearts coming this Phab plus.. I love it and waiting for the same................hu ha....

  • My problem with this phablet exactly, 6.7' FHD screen with 3500mAh battery. Goodluck with the battery life, owners.

  • Already at my neighbourhood shop a few weeks back. Tried it. Great size for us who want a higher end bug screen phone. Not so small as a note5. My only beef is the camera software. No touch on focus to shoot? Still have to press the shoot button?

  • I really love this phone I hop I can get one :D

  • same with me here...i hate using sim card slot as expansion slot. you need to remove and reinsert your sim card after using the slot as expansion slot. what a stupid idea.

  • I don't like the shared sim card and microsd card slot design, 3500mah battery doesn't matched with this 6.8" phab

  • The dual sim tray is shared with Microsd card. If you use microsd, you lose one sim! Dissapointed

  • I totally agree. How stupid, when you consider the bigger Phab plus has more room for a bigger battery. What where they thinking!?!?

  • Its said Phablet. Not phone.. go buy phone if u dont like phablet

  • Yeah for me too but the only objection that I have is about the mid-range cpu/gpu everything else is ok.

  • Lenovo has some 5" phones with 4000 mAh battery yet they decided that this 6.8" phablet should just stick with 3500. That's just pathetic. My THL has 4000 mAh and the screen is only 4.7".

  • Realy? USA is best country. you csn moved to my country, Czech Republic, is piece of shit hole of world. nothing is not possible found to buy. xbox 360 chrome wireless controller not exist, xbox one 1Tb versiin in date of realesed not possible to buy.I must buy 500Gb+2Tb external hard drive.

  • This would be a great device for people who don't want a tablet and a phone like me.

  • I hope this will be sold in the USA. Why are some good phones not sold here?

  • I hope this will be sold in the USA. Why are some good phones not sold here?

  • battery is too low :(

  • it's funny.... 3500mah battery for 6.8" phone. i dont know why the power bank can sell 12000mah by RM120 (even some is fake) but i don't understand why can fit with 5000mah or even 6000mah for this FHD power hungry phone. the Snapdragon 615 is not tat power efficient in my Samsung A7 especially u run the GPS + Google Map , or COC apps . basic - 1 day charge 1 time. dont ask us bring power bank. Lenovo still the same , never improve the sense to consumer. ugly GUI , wrong spec in every phone.

  • yor absolutly right

  • it is phone guys. just like z ultra but more powerfull couse new technology u know better cpu battery gpu and faster ram and rom :)

  • Looks great and innovative. But can you practically use it as a phone without looking odd. It would be a phablet if it is around 6-6.2, guess it is a tablet

  • i think it should be 5.5" like 6 plus

  • lenvo phab plus is most phone

  • between asus zenfone max and lenovo phab plus ? which one i should buy? the price of this two smartphone? reply

  • great phone but it shoud be 5.2 inches :( its to big
