What new smaller phone?

[Vigilant teSte]

My Samsung S5 mini has become an unreliable crock of crap in the past couple of weeks so looking for a new one. Looking at smaller screen handsets and choices are very limited nowadays on good spec handsets with sub 5 inch screens . Any Galaxy Ace (2017) users able to give me some feedback please? Or to other android suggestions, but don't say Sony because I really don't want to remortgage. Haha

Samsung A3?

[sx rider]

if you want reliability I'd recommend an iPhone 6s, had mine for 3 years and it's been faultless to date. Had an iPhone 3s previously and that was 5 years old when I changed it.

Or the iPhone SE is even smaller

Pretty sure he's not a fan of apple products.

Been using a sony z5 compact for 3yrs with no issues at all.....

Changed after my s5 mini started smoking while on charge @ 6 months old

Yeps can't do Apple , I need to be able to bluetooth send images to printers for iPhone users that can't at work, sorry chaps .

See D, the specs of the Sony compacts are very good, but the price tag for sim free (we use GiffGaff sim only for the business) is absolutely bonkers

I was lucky and cpwh buggered up my contract, so got the handset for free and 1 month later went sim only.....


To be fair the battery is getting a little tired now after 3 yrs, only lasts a day instead of the 1.5 - 2 it did when new, I'm considering a xz2 compact at full price, just because this one gas been so good

But......

I think Sony have gone and put the power button / finger print reader on the back of the handset, which is a shit idea and makes it awful to use.

Having a LG k8 work handset it's a hateful thing to use for button placement

Copied Samsung when they did that with the S8 last year.

The S8/S9 is pretty good, the screen is big but the handset isn’t.

Not certain on size but have you looked at the new Huawei Honor 10, launched today I think.

As many of you know, I was a Blackberry Fanboi. I used to work for them, supported all BlackBerry, iPhone and Android... And Windows Phone. Had them all. 7350, 8110, 8310, 9000, 9500, 9900 Bold, Z10, Z30 Classic. Then Android Priv (Native Android)

Now I have a 6S for work (BYOD) and an iPhoneX as a personal. I would also say get the 6S or 7/8

Just couldn't get on with Android and didn't like how unsecure it was
