    Hi,

    I really don't keep up to date with the latest phones so I'm not sure what's the best on the market currently.

    I have a Nexus 5 and I'm looking for an upgrade. I guess what I like in a phone are bigger screen size, not much wasted space on the sides of the screens, and a good camera if possible.

    I'm not overly concerned about waiting for the next flagship or anything like that, I'm not fussed about having the latest technology. So would really appreciate some recommendations given the above. Thanks :)

    Oneplus One? Everyone on here raves about it, I actually just bit the bullet myself today and ordered one to replace my trusty Nexus 4. Overlarge screen size is the only caveat, but I reckon I'll cope.

    If you're quick, you can order one today (Tuesday's only) on their online shop (I'm ordering via Germany).

    Note 4. If you can get an upgrade for 130-150 euro, it's well worth it.

    Everyone who views the photos from it is impressed.
    Screen is massive.
    Battery lasts 1-2 days.
    Fast charging is fantastic.
    S-Pen is great - i use this for general finger on screen replacement, writing on pictures i've taken (e.g. measurements of furniture, walls, room dimensions etc. - extremely handy if renovating or visiting IKEA etc.), drawings, notes +much more.

    Moved from a Note 3 before that. Not too much difference between the two (better screen of course) but the S-Pen makes the difference on both compared to other devices.

    Due an upgrade myself next month. Debating on whether or not to hold out for the note 5.

    Ive currently got the note 3, and couldn't be happier.
