Can you wait a bit for the S7 prices to plummet?

Motorola G4, wipes the floor in all the budget smart phone tests and has dual sim, so no messing about when you're on your travels... comes in at a fair whack under budget too.

I've had the previous version for well over 2yrs, no fuss or hassle, does everything you'd want and more, and the battery lasts a couple of days and more under normal use.

10/10 from me, I'll be getting another... even though there's nothing wrong with mine.

Just watch out for intrusive apps like battery doctor, I thought there was something wrong with the phone recently, then removed that app and it's like new again, stands up to being dropped a few times too.

This looks ok , obviously more cash

Security specs that outweigh what i have and the fingerprint scanner in the correct place , and 1/2 the price as well

Couple of suggestions, wouldn't touch the swift. I'd go with the P2 for the battery - actually I wouldn't, I'd wait for the xiaomi mi6 that's launched in a couple of days - but that'll probably be the Chinese version that's launched first.

Or why not the G5 (or G5 plus), now they've been released
