Looking to get another phone. Currently got a Samsung s4 mini. It's been a really good phone, had it 3 years Newer models look quite expensive, looking to spend around £200, must be sim free, farmer friendly

MANN ZUG3 here, bit chunky but very long battery life, holds signal, two sim cards in it, and farmer proof

That's what I have. My kids always want to get me the latest communication devices and the Samsung A3 was what they wanted me to change to but when I compared the specs of the two phones the only major difference is the A3 has a newer android version and 16gb/2 GB rather than 8/1.5 gb RAM. Oh, and a fingerprint sensor (?).

I've decided to keep the S4 Mini and await the next technological advance before changing.

Microphone is getting a bit dodgy. Only reason I'm looking to change. Could buy another, the Mann looks smart.

I've got an S5 mini, had it 18 months and would buy another 1 tomorrow if I had to. It's splash proof which is good seeing as water killed my last 2 phones.

I had a Samsung galaxy S5 that was a good phone and took a hammering for over 2 years

I now have a Samsung A5 2016 and it's a really good phone and the phone is crystal clear and I would buy another Samsung any day although iphone is the shittest over rated phone I ever had.

I've got a Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime.
Much closer to the A models in price, but more like the S in everything else. I think it was a smidgen over £200.
From what I gather they're aimed at the Indian market, and I ordered mine from Hong Kong (which is always a bit of a gamble) but so far it's been great.

I have a Moto G3 now replaced by the G4. Often classed as the best budget android smart phone on the market. Had it a year and very impressed with it will probably replace with a G4 or G5 plus. At about £150. Easy to but outright and keep my contract cheap on sim only.
