One Day

Samsung note is massive however the new one kept catching fire and was recalled..
I have a Note4 and after 2yrs in my pocket there's not a scratch on it! Best phone I ever had and I'm not changing it.
Found her an xperia xa ultra. That'll do because she wants another Sony.

I don't get the point of the edge. Just a more expensive screen to replace .
Never broke a screen yet.
Get the right case and it shouldn't be an issue.
I have however dropped one in a bucket of water........ teach me to answer the phone when grouting..:(

Probably not really an upgrade but i have a Samsung j5 and I have to say it is tough as old boots, thought id killed it a while ago dropping it in a rinse off bucket when grouting but its still going strong, just have a gorilla glass screen on it and a leather flip case, dropped it on hard floors ALOT, got addy all over it, had it out in rain while fishing, and nothing wrong with it

I can highly recommend the Moto G4 and G5. Cheap as chips and awesome android phones. I keep breaking mine so at 160 a pop it's fine by me.

Great for those that sit around all day watching passing trade.
For those that get down and get dirty I've just got a Alcatel flip phone for £19.00 no sim.
Wife washed my last one so looking forward to some business coming in now!

I had a G4 plus and the Mrs a G4 for maybe 8 months each and it was fine. That said we're not tiling lol

I'm a month into my G5 and it's fine. Just need a good case as with all phones.

I actually didn't realise that had glass over it until I just looked. I'll try keep an eye on it. Good call.
