I'm looking for a new Android phone for an older person. Phone will be used mainly for calls, messages and taking pictures, so a good camera is important preference here. Phone should be in low- or mid price range.
So far, I have found Nexus 5x and Motorola G4 Plus to be a good deal. Which one would you recommend more, which camera is better? Do you have any other recommendation?
I will buy in on Amazon UK.

Hi! Im due an upgrade on my O2 contract but cant decide which phone to go for, i have an HTC One X at the moment and am considering either a HTC One, a Samsung Galaxy S4, a LG G2 or Iphone 5s. I dont really use my phone AS A PHONE more as a camera, media player, internet/facebook browser etc, so each of the other phones have thier pros and cons when compared to my ONE X,
HTC ONE
Pros: Cons:
faster, camera not as good (imo)
more memory,
better screen,
better speakers.
Samsung Galaxy S4
faster
more memory screen not as good as HTC ONE
better screen speakers not as good as HTC ONE
better camera plasticky build?
microSD card support
LG G2
Speedy cpu (faster than S4 and ONE) bit of an unknown to me?
(Are LG phones any good normally?)
more memory plasticky build
better camera volume and lock buttons are on the back?!
Iphone 5s
nice build screen not as hd or as big as others
faster (64bit cpu) camera not as good as others
more memory unless jailbroken limited customization options
slo-mo video!
Bigger selection of apps (some exclusive to ios?)
lol, basically i want a phone that has the speed of the LG G2 (or possibly the 64bit cpu of the iphone 5s), with the speakers and screen of the HTC ONE, the memory of the Galaxy s4 or HTC ONE with the slo-mo video recording of the Iphone 5s! which would you guys n gals recommend? im not asking y'all to decide for me rather offer opinions to maybe help me decide?
ta in advance!
go for s4, it suites your needs....

Hey guys,
looking to purchase a decent phone under $300.
My main requirements would be good battery life, a good camera a decent processor and display. Anything extra would be a bonus
I was looking at the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 pro which seems to be a very good phone for its price, however it seems to lack in the camera department. I am not sure if it is still worth purchasing.
I then found out about the Lenovo Zuk Z1, which seems to have the entire package, but Im not very sure about the performance of the Snapdragon 801 processor.
Any advice or recommendations of another phone would be highly appreciated

I broke my Samsung s6 edge plus. So I need a budget phone. I have a choice of a second hand Nexus 5, a new cobut note s, and a new doogee x6 plus.
I also have a ulefone Paris, but it needs a new screen.
All help and advise grateful.
I suggest you to take Nexus 5 since the Nexus 5 received mostly positive reviews, praising the device's balance of overall performance and cost in comparison to other "flagship" phones

So, some background to my story.
I was saving up for an S8+ but had to use that money somewhere else. Need to a buy phone ASAP and looking at previous gen flagship.
I currently have a Redmi note 4 and I don't want another mediocre mid level phone. I really don't like the camera or the sound quality.
Now my budget isn't much. I can spare about $320.
I am getting an S7 (G930T) for $335 and a V20 (H918) for $300. (Both are brand new)
My only concern for the S7 is no development since it is snapdragon (Can't find a cheap Exynos). As for the V20, plenty of development but no future updates (S7 will get official Oreo).
I live in India and will be importing these devices through a family member. I've already looked at OnePlus and they aren't selling for cheap, both the 3T and 5.
All I'm looking for is a day's battery life, good camera and sound quality. Not much of a mobile gamer.
Basic needs are WhatsApp, Reddit, Snapchat, Instagram and YouTube. No Facebook.
Can I please get your opinions below?

Did you consider the Moto x4, HTC U11 life, and maybe a used one plus 3? If you are looking for great development, then the 3 is your best choice. Also, if you like sound quality, the axon 7 could also be a good choice.
