this device will remain a companion for many years with me I'm sure of it. specially that its price is dropping so fast (cost me 375$ one day use).
the physical keyboard has, and will always be a PLUS for business and personal use. consider using Putty on an android phone with a touch keyboard and a multi-window mode and you'll know what I mean.

Out of all the years using cell phones this is my favorite phone I've ever had. I love this phone.

Yes, absolutely one of my favorites, right up there with the Samsung icky (i760) I don't even mind not having root! Can't wait for the BlackBerry KeyTWO.

its a blackberry.. that runs android.

Love it so far. Damn near perfect!
I would give it a 4.5. I think it is just shy of the Note 7. Haven't seen other phones better. Not familiar with the Pixels.
Awesome phone. Great to use, fast, awesome display. WiFi tends to be a little glitchy, but I don't consider it bad enough to bother me much.

It is not very fast (1.3GHz Mediatek) but it doesn't feel slow doing day to day tasks.
Zero lag in non-gaming tasks. Quite amazing. And I'm comparing to Galaxy S7.

Agreed
I find it snappy enough to meet my needs.
Owning a Nexus 6P as my main phone, I wasn't expecting too much out of the R1. However after getting things setup for my son with a freedompop SIM I am damn impressed for it being a $60 phone! Very happy with the purchase!
For me, it gets laggy from time to time. But a restart will usually do the trick to pep it up again. I've seen nothing that is nearly as extreme as what this guy on Android Police wrote : http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...-eleven-the-slowening-begins-i-take-a-hiatus/.
I have no lag, very similar to my s6 Edge+.

Yeah, I don't know what that guy is talking about. Maybe he completely filled his internal storage, which can bog it down. After two weeks, I haven't seen any additional slowdown in my usage.
I am using this till I find another phone to purchase and I came from a Nexus 5x. Its definitely slower on speed but I am very surprised how well it works. I wont "miss" anything too terribly for the meantime.
Works well

A great device indeed!
Bought this after cancelling my order for redminote 4!
Happy with 19s build, but would really love a nougat official update.
So four stars till then!

Official 19s with Nova launcher
One of the best phones I used. I have changed custom ROMs like anything and works like a charm m. The only reason if I sell this phone is the quality of camera. It's not that great, but can't complain for the price I bought this phone. Rest everything is best.
Good phone but a little help from leeco would have made it better specially in terms of sources.
Lots of rom and a monster phone,just love every thing related to le eco
Absolutely! Such a great phone, bought this almost two years back but still didn't find any fancy phones to ditch this. Only concern is updates but custom roms are cool.
Very Solid Phone. For the price of our 2 X522's you can not go wrong.
We bought our phones for $109.00 ea, and bought two X727's for $189..00 stellar phones at a stellar price!
Many options in the custom Rom Dept.

I have have the LG K8 US215 and am currently using it. I love the feel,the lightweight feeling,and even some of the built in features. Such as the File Manager and even access to Google apps.
However one thing I didn't like is how easy it is to crack the screen. Plus when I tried checking for updates on the phone and the software it keeps telling me repeatedly that my phone isn't registered. Yet I'm registered with LG products and my phone carrier. I don't know how to get past this by won't give up till I find a solution. Other than that,I love this phone.
Been thinking of getting another one just like it and trying to root this one.
Got the LG-K350N and man I love it....it became my most favorite of all phones I had....It´s cheap and after root, added 16GB sd to internal memory, Xposed incl. battery saver.
I must admit I use a smartphone for only the usual (light) things like: calling, camera, Whatsapp, Youtube, Music, navigation, Chess.com, Showbox and popcorn. And I dont look for custom roms anymore as I did with my other phones.
But the size, weight and touchscreen makes it the best I ever had!

Owned the 5 for a few weeks now. Its slow as hell. stutters when scrolling, just feels laggy for a modern phone. I gave it a 3 as its 'ok' for the money but other wise a 2 compared to anything decent.

Agree. Additional 1 GB ram would be useful. Furthermore, here in Poland you can get better phone for less.
Well, it is not very fast for money, but you are paying extra for build quality and support, which is great IMO.
I agree with @kennyhkw, it's ok for the price range but laggier than I expected it to be

I have moved from apple to android recently
I have just been checking the specs of the iphone 6 vs Nokia 5
my nokia 5 is so slow - i thought it was faulty to be honest - I have just run some bench marking tools on it and it is within the realms of what it should be.
It's not a good choice for anyone who is more than a light user, the camera app on oreo is also horrific - trying to slide photo to video or back again is like russian roulette.
so far i'm very disappointed - i'm wondering if dropping it down to 7.2 might improve things ?
owned it for about a month now but can't see me staying with it at present.
I'd score it a generous 2 - it's cheap but I was expecting something solid from nokia, not a porsche with a moped engine.

I love my nokia 5, i've being used it for 3 months, there is no trouble after all and no lag.
oh maybe i used the 3GB ram variant, so it's smooth
This phone isn't the fastest. About 30% of the time there are delays between tapping something and an action occurring. But it's performance isn't a laggy mess or anything. It's actually pretty good. It's not incredibly snappy but gaming, editing and pretty much every task runs well without any lag. The camera takes a second or so to open up though.
Honestly it's pretty slow overall, I'm pretty disappointed. Sometimes it seems like it's almost ok, but sometimes it can really become painfully sluggish.
Lags when unlocking with fingerprint, but otherwise quite snappy. Lag is hardly noticeable and once it happens once, it wont happen for a while after. this is for the 2gb variant
8/10
