It supports Dolby Atoms, But the headphone jack quality is not so good, But OK at this price range.
The 2nd Sim slot is only 2g Doesn't support 3g/4g/lte
Now for the real review -
Build:
I would like to start by the Build quality. It is just Superb. I find the device nice to hold in the hand. The phone has a good grip but be sure to buy a back cover as you never know what might happen.
Hardware & Software:
This phone is powered by a Snapdragon 616 Octa Core 1.5 GHz processor and runs on 2 GB of RAM. Also you get 16 GB internal storage( standard now a days) out of which 8.2 is available which not quite sufficient if you are a heavy user, so might consider getting the K5 Plus which more RAM and Storage.
On the software front the phone runs Android Lollipop 5.1.1 with Vibe UI on top. You can anytime change to stock android launcher if you want. The screen is well lit and bright as well as responsive too. As I said before the hardware is really good and one of the best you can get in this price.
One more thing you get Dolby Atmos speakers which pretty good and really loud ( really) .
Camera:
This is the part where this phone lags and most other in this price range lag too. By lag I mean the picture quality is that good as one would want but anyways one should expect DSLR like quality in a Smartphone. And about the video quality is fine too. Recording is by default set to 720p if you want you can change it to 1080p. Low light captured pictures are not so good.
Connectivity:
Having a removable battery this phone can accommodate 2 4G sims as well as a MicroSD card which is one reason it's better than Redmi 3. I don't like the Hybrid slot stuff. you will get VoLTE in update.
Gaming:
Many people must be thing about this too. Well let me tell you, I tried some casual and hardcore games. The casual ones like Angry Birds 2 , Subway Surfers and most games out there work really well. But continuous gaming cannot be done on this phone due to the battery capacity. About the Hardcore and graphic demanding games, well they don't run that good. I am not much of the mobile gamer, so this isn't a problem.
Heating:
I too a ton of relief when I found out this wasn't the case with Vibe K5. No heating issue.
Battery:
The phone's battery is of 2750 mAh capacity which is not that impressive but lasts for a day easily if you are a moderate user. Continuous YouTube and Gaming drains the battery very fast.
Final Conclusion:
My final thoughts are - This Phone Is a Marvelous Piece of Hardware has a good design, hardware and features. And overall this phone is in my opinion the best you can get in this range. Better go for it. You will really love the phone as I do.
