        I don’t know about Chi Phones, but the Motorola G 4 / 5 family do all me and my family want.

          To many unknowns with chi phones, as Dave said moto G4/5 are excellent. We have 3 2016 moto g4, even the camera is half decent now. Not seen the g5.

          The biggest plus the motors have is monthly  security patches, which you won’t get with a chi phone. Unless you buy a good one like a xiaomi or huawei, but then your taking normal smartphone money, not chi phone money.

          Huawei stuff Btw is fantastic. I did just have to replace the wife’s battery, and it was so simple to get into, they basically ripped off the apple approach (which is great) and improved it.

          On the I phone you have to take out all the innerds, to get the the battery. On the P9 it’s just presented  to you and it had these great sticky ribbons that just come away when it comes you pull on the tab, releasing the battery. Almost all other phones, you have to dig the battery out, hoping you don’t puncture it in the process.

              Should be decent Lee, it has all the right specs.

              Btw, I’m liking the new formite sign and tweak to the black top bar. Have you employed a designer ?

                  Posted the above from my phone on my way to more reasons not to shop at morrisons, phone must of logged me in to my test account. Well I will see how the new phone goes tomorrow. I know when I wake up in the morning I’ll regret drinking and lurking around amazon.

                    Lol, story of my life Lee. I spent more cash on crap when lying in bed. I’ll trawl Amazon, eBay and alibaba for hours when bored.

                    The worst is alibaba and wish, as it’s too easy to spend a shed load of cash at £2 and £3 a purpose. The best thing about the two apps is the long delivery time.

                    Usually a negative but the crap you buy from there is always impulse, “forgettable” buys. So come 4 to 6 weeks later, the postman delivers you a surprise.

                    Yeh that marriage for you, the hight of the day is receiving presents you bought and forgot about.

                      My contract is up soon and O2 has offered me a samsung A5 at the same price I am currently paying for my S5 Neo if I sign up for another 2 years.

                      Anyone know if the A5 is any good ?

                        Read this review If you like Samsung and want to spend that sort of  money I think you’ll love it.

                          Looks like what I am after then but I am a bit concerned about the build quality remarks because my S5 had to be replaced twice due to defects.

                          Have decided to let my contract run to its end in mid december. Will let you pepole know if I get the A5 ?

                            If your not desperate, wait till mid December and they will offer you a better phone and or small bill.
