Hi,
My wife has a G5 (3GB version) and I have a S7. The S7 is slightly better indoors, it seems to have better colour (brighter). However, the G5 does an excellent job (especially outdoors) and is very fast at taking pictures. Both phones you can tap the screen and the picture taking is near instant (no real delay). S7 is possibly a milli-second faster. You can still just tap as fast as you like on the G5 screen and it takes them almost instantly. We put our kid on a swing (obviously moving) and took pictures as she came towards us. We tapped the screen as fast as possible using both phones and neither phone has any blurred images and the quality was excellent on both. Is the camera as good as S7? Not quite, but it IS an excellent camera.
You'll hear a lot of people saying buy this chinese phone, its faster. That may be true but it depends on what you use it for. I've had several chinese phones and they were pretty good. However, generally speaking, their camera's have been very poor. Maybe they've got better. For me, who wants to take pictures of my kid, the G5 is a perfect choice. We were both suprised how good the camera was on the G5.

Giffgaff is good because all phones come unlocked (so any SIM would work) and the goody bags can be cancelled any time.
