There are many better phones. Can you find the LG G4 for close to this price?

I have this phone for around a year now and I love it.
Actually after it got marshmallow the battery life (for my use case) has improved significantly, whereas before it would struggle to survive a day now it last one and a half and I even pulled out 2 days a couple of times. I have never experienced anything close to this level of improvement in battery life via software in any phone.
Also the camera has improved a lot since I first got it and is pretty decent now, not the best, but more than good enough for most imo.
The processor is the best the last year offers, so if you want the best phone money can buy, yes go and buy Moto X Force (cca 400£), G4 etc... but in reality this chip combined with (virtually) stock android this ships with I really doubt anyone would notice a difference. This chip has at least a couple of more years in it.
In reality this phone has a really good amoled 5.2" screen which is somewhere around the right size for most as well as seamless experience many others lack, it weighs about 140g and has a pretty nice design, all in all I don't think you can get a better phone in this price range, possibly you can get something different (so better for you if you have different priorities).
I would definitely recommend it and apart from paying a bit too much for it when it was relatively new I am pretty happy with my phone.

I've still got a nexus 5 with an 800 and it's rapid. I'll be keeping it another 2 years

Do you have to sign up as a student to use the code? Would love to know if there is a workaround as inputting code normally at checkout does not work

You go through my unidays you will get a code in every hour/ you need a education email id like .ac. Or .edu to sign up with my unidays/ but 10% sign up and student discount both won't work together

I have had a quick look, Only white front available, but free upgrade to wood or leather, can get a really nice design. Shame no fingerprint sensor, as at 187 its a bargain... i feel tempted to swap my nexus 6p (which is way superior to this one i guess) :wink:

Agreed. Nexus 6p's weakness is its CPU, snapdragon 810 is too hot! And I do like the design of the Moto X 2nd Gen.
