    Afternoon.
    Currently having issues with my iPhone 6s in that my memory is full and can't update as I have not enough memory.
    Have an xcover 3 as a weekend phone and it's quite basic but very good for the outdoors.
    There is now an xcover 4 which has 16 GB of memory.
    Does anyone one have one? Need something for what's app and tune in plus browsing that's faster than the 3
    Thanks

    16gb storage too little for 2019

    go for 32gb min

    otherwise you'll soon run into issues with storage, even with a micro sd card

    best budget options at the moment

    honor 9 lite (160 euro about on amazon spain or bit more on UK)
    honor 10 lite (200 euro about)
    huawei p smart 2019 (in shops in Ireland, make sure it's 2019 model)
    (if you need nfc all these phones have it)

    mi a2 lite (eglobal, honorbuy online) - 160 or so
    (long battery life)

    We have xcover 4s in work, it is a big improvement over the 3, speed wise.
    It is ip68 as well which us handy for use in rain.
    It all depends if you need a lot of storage or not, I think there is an xcover 5 equivalent on way as well.

    Many thanks for replies. Hopefully my iPhone is going to to update for me and I can keep going with iPhone 6 and xcover3 for weekends as have been doing.

    How was the 4 for opening webpages etc? The 3 can be very slow

    No issues on 4 with web browsing, 3 was slow.
    The 4 also is compatible with OS 8 which is good.

    I have 2 of them, one for work and one personal ( my s7 edge was stolen in the uk). Worst camera I've had on a phone in years, but in fairness everything else on them is absolutely fine.
