Can get it cheaper at £199.95 from Simply Electronics - Vendor banned by HUKD so may be risky.

That's cos they didn't pay their annual HUKD traders fee :neutral_face:

do not touch simply electronics, they are crooks. I used to work manage the customer services for a company that advertised them for a while - we received no end of complaints over undelivered goods and more.

thinking of getting this. What are expansys like if you have problems with phone. Are they UK based ?

Expansys are now part of the Brandpath group and work out of a warehouse in Slough.

I bought my LG G2 from them a year and a half ago. They're not UK based but they might as well be. EU laws mean all warranties etc are valid throughout the EU. I thought my phone was broken (it wasn't I was just being an idiot) so they gave me a freepost sticker to send to Germany I think and I had the phone back in a few weeks. The only reason I ever noticed my phone was not from the UK is because I got an adapter for a two pin charger. Otherwise it's the same!

The phone is amazing. I love it to bits. Runs very quickly (does not heat with latest updates) and has lolipop 5.1.1

Some awful reviews on Simply Electronics, but a very good price, I'm just worried about ordering it from there, and it not being legit.

For a £15 saving get from Expansys. Phone is the Czech version but you get the EU warranty protection.
Echo comment above, this is a cracking phone. All the software issues have been ironed out so most reviews don't give a true reflection of how good this. The curve is so subtle and it's lovely the hold.
Apparently the phone is getting Android 6.0 as well.

Expansys are selling this for £227 on Rakuten.
I would wait until Ratuken do their payday (likely Monday 26th) deal or points promo plus discount code.
They currently have a 25x points promo for spending over £200. Buy one for £227 and get £56.75 to spend on Rakuten. The only catch is that the 25x points doesn't show on checkout but Rakuten promise to apply the points to your account at a later date.
