I bought the phantom z after using the r7 for a few months. The phantom z is a faster phone. But the WiFi and network signals are too weak. I also gave it in complaining for the same. The replaced the phone after over a month but there is no difference. Wouldn’t advice anyone to get this phone.
i haven’t heard of this before. Let’s hope Tecno will fix it in their next smartphpone.
