    Think I've settled on Sony Experia Z5. Decent phone, bit cheaper than the samsung, better sound quality.

    Looked at some of the chinky phones but theyre mostly 5.5" phablet size. Not fussed too big for me.

      My daughter has a Sony Experia a couple of years ago - check the quality of the sound when making a phone call. Hers was bloody dreadful, really sounded like she had her head in an echoey bucket.

        I had the z3, the earpiece was terrible as could rarely hear the other person when making calls

        also my z3 screen was very brittle, cracked it twice, second time it fell from the sofa armrest onto a carpeted floor (2ft) and it cracked the screen

        don't know if newer models have improved build quality

                Well regardless of what you go for, I'd recommend getting a Lifeproof Fre case. I bought one for my iPhone 6 having smashed 2 screens in about 2 months. It's absolutely awesome. Waterproof, shockproof etc. My two year old sometimes pinches my phone and watches YouTube videos or cartoons. If he gets shouted at, he tends to launch the phone.

                You can hear the collective sucking in of breath from surrounding parents when he drops it from the shopping trolley seat in the supermarket etc.

                I recently upgraded to a 6S after about 18 months use, and when I took it out of the case it looked absolutely immaculate. Not a scratch, dent or mark on it.
                And the lord said unto John; "come forth and receive eternal life." But John came fifth and won a toaster.

                  Not surprised with the number of times you've been shafted.

                    £60 for a case. Better be good!

                      Anyone manage to get a business tariff sorted paid via ltd bank account?

                      Last time the tariffs cost more but I notice EE do a nice sim only one now. £15+vat for unlimited calls/texts and 10Gb data. (£350 for the Sony Experia Z5 up front amazon job done)

                      Any hassle getting EE to credit check/pay from company?
