    Thinking of upgrading one plus 5.

    Have it rooted and gcam installed. Nowadays it's all about video and camera with junior taking up most of the memory. I also like the fast charge and price.

    Looking at Huawei but can't unlock Bootloader on these and remove bloat ware and install custom rom.

    Any other suggestions?

    Google Pixel 3a is supposed to have one of the very best cameras out there

    Thanks looking at the Samsung s10 like the Huawei p30 but will hold off until the whole Google thing is sorted. Also no custom roms for Huawei..I think?

    Mate 20 Pro.

    Better than P20 pro and not that far off the P30 pro except for periscope camera (same chip).

    Get it on Amazon.it for around €500 with case included.

    Or wait for Mate 30 Pro and pay double the price!

    they don't make unlocking the bootloader possible so no custom roms.

    mi 9t a decent option imo

    48mp main, 13mp wide, 8mp zoom
    snapdragon 730 as good as the 845
    amoled
    in-screen fingerprint
    no notch
    4000mah battery
    nice-looking premium build

    308 or so on eglobal for 128gb

    Or about €321-325 on Amazon.es
    At least you get Amazon customer care and after sales service.
    I wouldn't fancy having.to deal with that aspect with eglobal.
    And you never know when you might need it.

    it's 365 + 10 delivery = 375 for the 128gb version so about 70 euro in it vs eglobal.

    there are very few manufacturing issues these days with phones tbh. for €70 I'd risk it probably but you would get better after service if needed with Amazon.

    Edit.
    Actually that's not the price from Amazon currently for the 64gb version.

    Here's the phone in my basket at final checkout with express shipping.

    EUR 321.44
    Shipping: EUR 8.92
    Total before tax: EUR 330.36
    Taxes: EUR 0,00
    Total: EUR 330.36

    The 128gb is dearer all right.

    However having said that, 128gb would be the better bet rather than 64gb.

    Personally I'd go for the 128gb over the 64

    that's why I compared the 128gb verison as that was the price I had referenced from eglobal. compare like with like.

    the 64gb is under 280 on eglobal.

    so save over 50 on 64gb version

    just under 70 on 128gb version
