And can anyone explain Android KitKat 4.4 vs Lollipop?

Sony Z3 or Z3 mini

A fantastic piece of kit with build quality better than anything else out there imho, which I think you'd appreciate.

Can find those, but they are slightly over what I want to pay, even from virgin as a broadband etc customer.

At present I've only 75 mins talk time, 250 texts and 500MB download, all for £8.40 pm......but the phone is ****e.

UPDATE:

Pushed Virgin for a decent deal on the Xperia Z3 compact...I liked the specs and it was closest to the size of my little Samsung, I'm not liking these huge phones, mine lives in my pants pocket and I don't want it twisted when I sit down.

Can't say what the deal is, but it substantially beats all others out there...except Vodafone, who are not fit for purpose

Thx to Funkii, might not even have looked at that one.

Unsure if the Z3 compact has the same battery life, it's quite small. Time will tell.

It's coming with YODEL again. Last time they were supposed to deliver my present phone, they had me waiting in THREE days. Between them and Virgin, they managed to **** up completely. I was just about to ring Virgin and cancel at around 6pm on the third day when it arrived. THIS time they get the one day!
it's not here by close of YODEL business tonight, it will be cancelled and refused if it does come tomorrow. They have to learn. TBH, I dunno why they still use YODEL, who are absolutely useless.

Already Virgin have sent me a tracking number which the YODEL site cannot find...doesn't look good.
