I want to get a new phone.

Don't mind android or IOS. Not WP!

£5-600 budget.

Micro Sim preferable, although not vital. (can cut to nano)

Had 5S, didn't like it. Not keen on a 6 either, although 5s tickles my fancy.

Sony Z3 or iPhone 6+ is my current first world problem. Life is tough sometimes.

Oppo Find 7. I was so impressed not only did I buy 4, but am seriously thinking about setting up a UK market place smile

Odd. The one I saw wasn't. Must've been different. Let me know how you get on with it!

I got one of these to replace an iPhone 4s. Seems very well made and also super cheap.

Wait, you've had an S5, currently have a Nexus 5, not a fan of the iPhone 6. What are you looking for in a phone?
As above, look into the Oppo Find 7a, maybe that can tickle your fancy.

I'm currently waiting for my Lenovo Vibe Z2 Pro to arrive. Very hard getting them in the UK but from what I've read these will be the phone to conquer all. Just about fit the OP's price range at around £600 but I won't be able to confirm this until it's passed through customs.

Here's a vid, it's already in India but not here hence the Indian review smile

Killer phone I think.

So far so good. It's a great phone. Big, but still goes in the jeans pocket. Battery life way better than my S4. It's much faster too. For the money, you wont find better. And if you do, I 'd love to hear about it.
