I buy them SIM free and run them into the ground after ~ 5 years which is prolly a mistakeThe last one was/is great but I discovered in NZ that the GPS is a bit shite so we had to use LL's for navigation.It isn't a problem generally but it was like a nagging sore and it had to go... Will sell it on-line.The new one has super-fast GPS and also picks up GLONASS... oh and it has an IR blaster so I can control the telly from it too...

The last 2 phones I've had have been from Honor who are actually Huawei and they've both been brilliant. From what I've heard Samsung and LG do something similar but I haven't been able to find out which brands they use.
Is it time for my anorak joke
