    Thinking of moving on from my Samsung Galaxy 3 and am looking for my next phone. I was doing some research on the SG5, HTC8 and the Sony Experia Z3. The Sony seems to be best for camera and battery life but just wanted to see if anybody here could confirm that or even if there is some other phone out there that might be better?

    Thanks

    is it only upgrades? why those phones?
    find 7 from oppo has a capacity to shoot 50mp photos, excellent battery life and fast charge too, with micro sd card slot.

    Vivo xshot would be another to consider, price is around 350e. Camera will be better than those 3 phones especially in low light, battery life is meant to be very good too.

    Z3c is probably what you are looking for. It's gotten rave reviews about it's battery life and the cameras on the XPERIA flagships are very good.

    I've got this. The camera is amazing providing you know how to use it. It's 20mp but if you use the auto adjust settings I think it only uses 10mp of it. Still absolutely fine for what the average person does. The 20mp kicks in when you switch off auto and adjust the tones yourself. The pictures I've taken with it though are far superior to those I took previously with my iphone 5 which has an excellent camera. Battery life has actually taken some getting used to after moving from iphone. I get close to 2 days and i'd be streaming radio for a decent bit of that while in work.

    Thanks everybody for the replies. I dont really have the cash to buy a phone outright so was going to just continue what I was doing and get a phone on contract. I have been with 3 for 4 years and have gotten 3 phones in that time. My plan was to do the same this year and those three phones I mentioned in my OP were on the site when I logged in yesterday.
