Guest TescoHudl Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Hi, I sold my iPhone 4 on Ebay last week so i could buy the new Nexus 5, but after seeing the prices on release date i decided not to bother with it. When i worked out the Nexus 5 prices before setting up the iPhone's auction, i got the leaked price ($349) and converted into pounds which gave me £210 for the 16GB model. When the actual UK prices were announced, i was rather shocked because it was an extra £90 on top of what i expected to pay. I know £300 is still very good value for the new Nexus, but it's out of my budget. I need to get a new phone as a replacement for the iPhone, but i am unsure what to buy. I've decided to ask you guys on here for some suggestions. Below i have listed the requirements the new phone needs to meet. Here is the criteria: + Must be under £200. (It can be second-hand, doesn't have to be brand new). + Must be rootable. (Some phones can't be rooted). + Must have at least a 1.3Ghz processor. (Anything less isn't really going to give me the performance i want. I had an original Nexus 7 tablet, and the speed on that was good; it had a 1.3Ghz Tegra 3). + Must have at least 1GB RAM. (The iPhone had 512MB, and i often had crashes while running all my jailbreak tweaks). + Must have at least 8MP camera. (5MP iPhone camera was good, but i want more in-depth quality to my pictures). + Must have 1080p video recording. (This is a critical point. I need the phone to be able to shoot high resolution video, so i can make movies at car shows which i attend, and upload the videos to my Youtube channel). + Must have at least a 4.0" screen. (Something really big like the Galaxy S4 would be good). Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LeWill Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Very happy with my Acer Liquid E2. Motorola Moto G details are out tomorrow, that should meet all of your requirements other than only a 5 mega pixel camera. I think the Acer meets all of your requirements though.
