    I am looking to upgrade my phone and cannot decide between the 3 phones above. Because of their very good prices I am also looking at purchasing from Eglobalcentral. Can anyone who has purchased from them recently advise me please. Are their phones the real deal and will they work on the Irish networks without any problems?

    Also any help on which of the 3 phones is the best would be appreciated.

    If screen size is not an issue then go for oneplus. Good phone at a very reasonable price.

    LG G3 is a very nice phone but expensive.

    Nexus 5 is decent now compared to the above, may be time for Nexus 6 release.

    I'd go with the One Plus One due to its capabilities to cost ratio.

    Nexus 5 was a good phone, but don't let its GorillaGlass confuse you, it will break from a small drop and after it cracks the first drop it's gonna keep getting worse (mine did so until the screen became ultimately complete trash).

    From reading other threads, eglobalcentral should be avoided for a number of reasons. Mainly, you have no local EU warranty for devices you buy on the site (they ship from Hong Kong). If you do have a problem with a phone, you have to send it back to them and their after sales support has been described as horrific (You aren't protected by EU consumer laws btw so you are effectively SOL if something goes wrong) . Also, don't forget you are liable for the full VAT once it reaches Ireland, which on a 300€ device, is about 70 eur. Customs seems to be clamping down now
