At least that's been my experience. I would also prefer if they supported them for longer but for me at least it's not the end of the world if they stop after a while. Also as you might expect the more expensive phones tend to be supported a little longer, so my 3 year old note 5 I recently sold was still getting updates. They can get dated when you do updates and you run out storage. 2yr ago my dad got a 8GB smartphone (Samsung J5). He had to upgrade even thou it was still technically working. |

| 1453362 | 2018-09-27 04:24:00 | The cheap & mid range ph's cameras do have issues in low light . Also get blown out at concerts with bright lighting . I found the cheap/mid ph cams are OK otherwise . most cheap/mid ph users arnt that fussy and just want a quick photo . They wont be blowing it up huge or worried about some grainyness or color imperfections :) |

| 1453363 | 2018-10-04 10:43:00 | I'd get an Android phone. Although if you wanna look rich, choose Apple. But as soon as another iPhone comes out, the previous version start going berserk. I stopped buying iPhone after iPhone 5 and switched to Android. Those memes on iPhone are real. | rgutz (17641) | ||
| 1453364 | 2018-10-04 19:32:00 | If, in addition to the obvious things, taking photos is also important to you then I suggest you consider the Huawei. My mid-range price Huawei (about $450) has TWO front cameras and two rear. I don't really take selfies so the rear ones are a waste for me, however the two front ones take excellent images. What happens is that when you take a pic, the front two cameras take two images - one at f1 and the other at f1.4 - then it merges them automatically within the phone itself. Just a thought! | Misty (368) | ||
| 1453365 | 2018-10-04 22:02:00 | I mean, really? So everyone with a smaller Android or an iPhone that's not a plus or an x is just wrong? Get real! :groan::groan: Jaysus - how does 1101 saying 'more usuable' translate in your mind to everyone else with a smaller screen being wrong? You really are a grumpy prick ain't ya. |

| 1453368 | 2018-10-04 23:37:00 | Poptel P8. Costs just over $178 NZ. Don't think I'll find anything similar for the same price, in NZ. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1453369 | 2018-10-07 01:04:00 | Appears reasonable value, a bit light on pixels | Ofthesea (14129) | ||
| 1453370 | 2018-10-07 01:16:00 | Not worried about the pixels. It's 4G (the one I've got now isnt, it's dual 3G). Only got it for the 4G, the faceid, fingerprint and NFC And, because it's waterproof The one I've got now has only got Android 7, less ram and space. And nothing else. |
