    Hey guys,

    Currently have a HTC M8S and looking to get a new phone- most important things are camera and battery life as its a work phone and these two things are vital for that.

    No limit on budget, was looking at OP3T but the warranty issue troubles me a little, what is the best out there atm?

    You probably would be looking at the Pixel or Pixel XL by Google. They're arguably the best phones on the market at the moment. The galaxy s8 and s8 plus could be two fantastic phones also but they won't be released for another couple of months probably.

    I've only experiences with the Sonys and Samsungs both equally good Android phones. HTC are good ones too. The newest and latest Samsungs probably good choices. S7 and the S8 is soon to be released be ones to keep an eye out for.

    Have had all the galaxy's up to the s6 htc m8 and m9.

    Switched to the op3 and haven't looked back great phone excellent spec and no contract ties. Also the dual sim is dead handy for travelling not just outside the country but in Ireland as well

    Yup one of the reasons I was drawn to it was the spec, Ill be buying it outright anyway so contract not a concern either. Only issue is 128gig out of stock for ages now and if I was getting it Id want the car charger too which seems to be always out too. That and the warranty concern

    And front facing speakers. I find the current speaker placement to be awful, always having to adjust my hand so the sound is not muffled in my palm.
