    Well boo boo for you,mist ppl haven't

    You get unlimited data on prepay on Three, most people I know are on it. Billpay is madness when that option is available.

    No FM radio,even though it states clearly is has one,this is either false advertising,or gross negligence, contacted VF via pm on twitter, asked for instructions to turn FM on,or part reimbursement

    Were there headphones in the box? I'd a phone a few years ago that needed the headphones plugged in for the FM radio to work.

    That 3 deal has been going on for years. They just have to give it an end date since it's a deal. It also covers 4G as I use it all the time.

    FM isn't on my radar at all. Much prefer tunein with the ability to record.
    My main concern with the phone so far is the lack of an update from Feb 2018.

    Yeah it's pretty poor that we haven't received that update yet.

    With whom does the fault lie? Nokia, vodafone, android?

    I'm considering getting the Huawei P20 instead.
    Regular updates from the Android One was one of big advantages to the 7 plus for me.

    They were giving a July end date last year, but they seem to keep renewing the deal. Yeah constant 4G, depending on coverage.

    It's billpay, I've got a relative due an upgrade, so can take advantage of that. They're not looking for a fancy phone.

    It's also unlimited texts to any network and three to three calls. If you call a lot of other network numbers, then it might not suit you.

    After a heavy weekends use (plenty of GPS, blutooth, camera and streaming TV), the battery in this is a beast!
    16 hours use on Saturday which included a 4 hour bike ride using Strava, I still had 28 percent battery remaining.
    My old Nexus would have been under charge by lunchtime.
