It went cold because it was only £20 off, even though its £60 off the play store price, also this phone costs more than a lot better phones even with the discount so while money off is always good, the phone is not worth £280.

Cracking deal, great phone with guaranteed Android upgrades and a reputable manufacturer

Decent i guess but the plasticky feel is not good and 16gb is a joke on this as it is on the baseline iPhone

Yawn 16GB is fine for many people, this is the age of streaming and the "cloud" after all. Had my Nexus 5 16GB for two years and never went near 100%
EDIT: Probably goes without saying I "liked" your comment by accident...

16GB is a complete farce. Just a marketing ploy to make phones look cheap. 6GB of this is taken in OS and formatting leaving you 10GB for apps and data. The 12MP camera is going to chomp though that fast and that's before apps, music. But you can stream from the "cloud" - true but you pay for the privilege more expensive phone contract and paying for Spotify or alternative. It's a false economy. Try stream a movie when you're on a train or overseas.
Also that tiny 16GB of NAND flash is going to suffer if you fill it anywhere near 100% performance will decay before a 2 year contract is anywhere near up.
Good price though.

Was impressed with this when I played with my mates the other day. Might swap my Z3 compact for one.

If you want different things there are better deals. But if you want a pure Android experience and at least two years of very fast updating there is no other choice. You can depreciate the phone over a longer period which significantly reduces the cost of ownership per year too. And this is by far the best deal on the product. Not a phone for everyone but a great phone for its niche market. So voting hot.
