    So what is a good phone to buy today?

    I've got more into phones but many of the reviews I am reading are disappointing and make me re think of my decisions.

    money is around 300 euro..

    looking for good camera.
    no lags with simple apps.


    I've thought about Nexus 5, s4, s3 and huawei ascend p7..

    Nexus 5 all the way.

    One plus would be a better choice, but it's harder to get one

    2 mates got it, its a REALLY good phone for the price as its a indie company that wanted to make a good phone for a good price.

    Just the only thing i didnt like about it when i've seen and tested it was the size its among the bigger ones and i really like the small and handy ones.

    No it has all you need. Camera has also been improved and with Android L battery lasts almost 2 days at a 80% use level(playing, recording, music etc)

    Yeah had it for almost a year now, super happy with it. Frontcam quality is pretty good, above average I would say. You don't get headphones, but any headphones with a mic will work and sound quality is great

    Yeah earlier models like mine had small speaker and mic holes. Quality is decent though. But while recording in landscape(the proper way to do it) you can sometimes end up covering the mic and get a damped sound quality. Newer models have bigger holes but I don't know if it changed anything. They also have sturdier buttons

    It was taken with the nexus. I couldn't take the actual phone with my potato, so I captured the box xD
