    can you port to vodafone and then port out to another network like gomo or do you have to be a customer with vodafone for a minimum period of time?

    not sure. but it's definitely possible after a few weeks as I know somebody who did that.

    I've had the pixel 4 for a couple of months and really like it. Battery is not an issue for me..it's not a cheap phone but it's easily the best android experience I've had..

    only the xl one is worth considering and that's more expensive

    the non-xl pixel 4 has dire battery life - a real balls-up on the part of google.

    e.g. https://www.theguardian.com/technolo...ry-life-cameraf

    get the pixel 3a instead through vodafone for a crazy €180 using a number port from a sim that you don't use - that's a real bargain and all the phone you need with a brilliant camera.

    the mi 9 quoted above is a decent phone but the camera quality is not as good as the pixel phones. google's proprietary software that is specially tuned for the particular camera hardware on their phones produces brilliant images. you can run the same google camera app on the mi 9 but you won't get the same results in terms of colour interpretation or dynamic range.

    well the battery life is sort of universally recognised as being bad on the non-xl model. you are very much in the minority there. you'll see if you ever try to sell it.

    Well I can only speak from experience. Im happy out with it.. hopefully will keep be going for two years. I have had the pixel 3xl, pixel 3a and now the 4.. p 20 pro, one plus 5s etc and this is my favorite phone. The only downside is not all apps have face unlock api integration yet.

    I'd be very interested in knowing your day to day usage and how the battery fares on it, i'm not a power user by any stretch and the 3a XL gets me through nearly two days if I let it, but the size of the 4 is very appealing.

    I'd say I'm a moderate user. I do have it connected to my car on the way to work and the way home for Android auto so I never have issues. I use mainly for some light browsing in the evenings, work emails, work calls etc..
