Have to say,like my Samsung Galaxy basic thing.Think its an A4 or 5. Gave up with the iphone 5
I use perhaps 1% of its ability though.Ring people,message and email.It's great

The above and the fact I don't like the Iphone is the reason I opted for Huawei's flagship phone. I did look at the XZ but felt it didn't really offer much over the Z3 it would be replacing(which has been a great phone).

By all accounts the new Samsung s8 due out at the end of February (ish) will be quite a bit of kit 
I'm putting off my upgrade until then, if you're not desperate for a phone have a look at some of the previews

The way phone technology is advancing I predict that laptop and desktop pc's will become a distant memory, in the near future I would expect that your laptop case will contain a wireless flat screen, a slimline wireless keyboard and a massive flash drive, the main processor with all the apps you will ever need will be in your pocket

The Google Pixel is great as is the Samsung S7 (it was the Note7 that caught fire FYI). Also the P9 is a great phone for the money. Some of the new Sonys are nice too XZ for instance. As an iPhone user I'm waiting for the next iPhone and if it's not leaps and bounds ahead I'll most likely be going Samsung S8.

No mention of the HTC's yet? I've had an HTC One for a few years now and love them. I guess a lot of it's brand loyalty though.
My younger brother's had pretty much every make of phone up to now but he swears by the Sony ones. Might have to give one a try at some point.

Rubbish the s7e and iphone 7 cams are superior shooters faillen, the s7e has a much better/wider aperture and your p9's doesn't have 4K video for example only 1080p. They perform pretty similar in real life conditions, p9 not hitting it outa the park by any means though

I have a sony z3+ bought it when new, from new the camera overheated after shooting around 30 seconds of 4K video - thought this would be rectiifed in time with a firmware update, almost 18 months on and the camera is no better. If the camera is important to you, i'd approach Sony with caution. Aside from that, I think it is a great device with 32Gb memory in the phone, and another 256Gb on the card, it carrys my life around nicely! Before anyone comments - yes I am fully aware of cloud storage - but being security paranoid I just dont trust it.
