So I've had a couple of apple phones and after having a samsung s7edge for 11 months it's died and samsung are saying it's because I've dropped it and it's damaged internally but can't show me any evidence of this. So I'm looking at other makes which are big in other countries but not as big here. Problem I'm having is that it's a minefield so I thought I'd see if anyone had a good recommendation for one. Currently looking at Haewai but have gone through reviews on lots of phones.

I'm on Vodafone, would like 4g, minimum 3meg ram. Full Touch screen. I'm not to bothered about an amazing camera. I Use my phone a lot for Internet browsing and apps. So this has to be as smooth as possible. Budget up to £300 but if it's half the price and it ticks the right boxes then even better!

I'm just looking at the moto g5 plus now. I would go for another Samsung but its lasted 11 month. Its like new on the outside, no scratches or chips and they are saying its been damaged internally due to a drop so it voids the repair warranty, although they cant show me proof of any damage which is annoying. If they break that easily I don't want another.

Just looking at the motorolla. It doesn't have a built in magnometer so it has no compass built in. Never thought but a few of the apps I use required a direction off the phone.!

Thanks but I'm trying to stay under £300. I could spend more but I'm trying to see if I can get a phone I'm happy with for a set price. I'm sick of wasting lots on premium brands only for them to break!
