Yeah I would suggest looking into the OnePlus line for anyone with access to GSM networks. The phones are dirt cheap, but decent quality. I'm still using a OnePlus One, and I bought it in early 2015. The phone still keeps up with new phones, and they are nearly indestructible. They tend to hang around the $400-$500 range, which puts them ~$300 less than other phones in the same performance bracket.

The OnePlus 3 looks very smart, another one to add to my list. Thanks for recommendation.

I personally just use phones for calls and text...but it annoyed my wife since she likes to use apps that windows doesn't have or has no support for from developers.

So keep that in mind when you jump onto the sinking ship called Windows phones.

I'm still waiting for Nokia's return

Right now I have a Samsung Galaxy S4. Doe everything me and my wife require from a phone. See no reason to ever upgrade again unless Nokia returns or the phone breaks.

Funnily enough Nokia have just returned. Not that exciting mind. Have a quick Google and let me know if you don't find anything and I'll post a link.

Looks like China only at the moment.

Yes, biggest potential market.

Would be nice to have them return with something different and Nokiaish. If you know what I mean.

Agree.. I have similar attachment to Blackberry that not many people understand.

I've still got a functioning z10 that I can't bear to throw away.

Crackberry was funny at times

IceFyre13th · 01-10-2017, 04:57 PM

and it makes its own power, no charging or battery needed

jasonojordan · 01-10-2017, 05:04 PM

Currently have an HTC 10 but got promoted at work so will be ditching my HTC 10 since the work will be paying for me to have a work line and I didn't want to carry two phones. Work bought me a LG V20

I wonder how long until they turn off GSM around the world.
