After contacting this excellent company about a price match with Laptops direct they have informed me about their reduction on their website to beat the Laptops direct deal which was good but the company apparently in bad!!

Still debating on this phone. Battery life is a nightmare though apparently. Anyone have hands on experience?

I'm only a light/medium user so I get about one and a half days use from a charge. A medium/hard user should get a full days use. The Quick Charge feature gives you about 6 hours use in only 15 minutes though so it isn't a real problem.

I can't see it being as bad as being a "nightmare". I have a S5 samsung at the moment and use it for whats app and 1 hour of video at lunch and it last's about a day!! and that's on power saving with screen on 3/4 brightness, its only about 8 months old!!! I can only think people must hammer their phones like my teenage son all day at school and after school at home you tube facebook videos music etc etc to not last a day!!

I've been spoiled with the Oneplus One I guess, but as a minimum I need 4 hours of screen on time. I'm not often near a charger at work and regularly use mapping and reasonably intensive apps. No such thing as a perfect phone I guess. There's always the Z5 but I don't fancy having my current handset superseded 3 times in twelve months!!!

great phone the OPO i had it just before my S5, i didnt have a scren protector fitted and scratched it which really out me off so i flogged it and got the Samsung....Been after something stock Android ever since i got my hands on this S5. Hate the samsung bloatware but am living with it for now, til i get the right phone at the right price. Do miss the OPO was awesome not so keen on the One plus 2 the finger print sensor thing spoils it for me have it on this Samsung and NEVER use the junk. Rather have no physical button. Want a big phone too like this Moto X seems to tick all the boxes for me!!!!
I don't understand the need for massive batteries (obviously it would be great), but with these external power banks, they basically solve the problem. You can charge it from any where.

Had a OPT and returned it. Honestly. The build quality was outstanding. But oxygen doesn't hold a candle to CM12. The software just didn't feel polished. And that shutter lag on the camera was infuriating. I'm not bothered too much about a QHD screen. And would take a better battery over this, but the OPT Wasn't too special on that front either. The fingerprint scanner was great though. Really great. Worked every time for me. I was thinking about holding out for the Nexus 6p but that might be a little more than I'm comfortable to pay for sim free. Damned phones are ruining my life. Can't seem to settle on one this year. I want a decent camera and battery life, with expandable or larger storage. LG G4 anyone?

z 5 premium but it's not going to be cheap. This looks good for the money to me. Heated

The Style has IR scanners on the front screen which detect when you hold your hand above it or detect when you look at it (You can turn the feature off if you don't like it). Either method shows the lockscreen and any missed calls/texts etc. are shown as icons. It works fine, I haven't touched the Power button since I bought it.
