This is a common issue with phones running Marshmallow; the phone is preserving battery by means of a very deep sleep.uv;30499903 said:anyone else got issues with whatsapp notifications not appearing whilst the screen is off? I just opened my phone and got like 10 at once!
Also, any recommendations for a case? This phone is slippy as hell

. Don't really care about camera. But speed and battery wise yes.

If battery is important to you, then this phone is just stellar - mine's currently on 23% left, with 2d6h57m standby so far and 7h16m screen on time. 18h remaining. I'll easy get 3 days with normal use I reckon.
The P2 menu options are settings >Power manager > Battery Optimization > select Not optimised from drop down menu > scroll down to find and select Whatsapp > select Don't optimise
Well I've joined the club. It's noticeable quicker and responsive vs my galaxy note 4 even with similar antutu score. Love it so far. No issue with headphone socket however the audio sync is there with phone speaker it works fine with headphones. I'm happy with my purchase so far. Just wish there was a way to remove the on-screen navigation bar I got it hidden now but it appears now and then when I swipe.

Another one joining the club. Had a bit of a battle with Three as the assistant insisted they weren't selling the handset by itself because it's too popular, so they're reserved for contract purchases...... Most vexing but a bit of common sense later and I got one. So far seems a very nice little upgrade from my Oneplus X that I can still get £100 for.
I love a good battery so looking forward to seeing how many days I can eek out of this thing

Have to agree, I've been using it a little more than I normally would today with it being new, 4 hours screen time and still on 76% battery, excellent.

I'm seriously thinking of changing my Moto G3 for a P2 - can those that own one please let me know if it is still nice and snappy to use after several months of use?

I bought it without the top up in-store, I just said that I'd already got SIM only with them and no more questions asked. I do have a SIM only contract with them, but I'm not sure they checked.

Trying to find best place to buy this - unfortunately has to be online as only have two phone shops where I live and neither would have anything other than iPhone or Samsung.
Can you use two SIM cards and also a memory card at the same time?
EDIT: Never mind, I found it out (the second sim uses the same slot as the memory card - so you can't use two sims and a memory card at the same time).
EDIT 2: I suddenly need a phone. After some extensive reviews the only near deal breaker for me was the relatively poor camera. But it's probably better than my Samsung S4 camera which is, frankly, awful. So I just ordered one. It seems incredible value. The killer attraction for me was the battery life and the nice to have feature was the option of a dual sim for work use.

Anyone got this coming from a Huawei P8?
A slight concern on the camera in comparions to the P8, got a 4 month old baby and taking loads of pics.
Been looking at Honor 6 and Blu Vivo 6 as well. Screens too small on my P8!
