    How many mobile phones do you have now?

    I currently own and rotate: OnePlus 6T, Pixel 3, Xiaomi Mi8 Pro and an iPhone 8 Plus. I've also got an LG V30, a HTC U11+, a Pixel 2 and a Xiaomi Mi Max 3 in a drawer as backups.

    Does the honor 8x have heating issues?

    Simply put, no. I have been using one for 5 days now with no such issues. Your mileage may vary. I've been very impressed with it and is probably the best value phone out right now - I paid just £216. Direct competition at the price point like the Moto G6 just pale in comparison.

    Anyone with a problem-free Pie update.

    No issues beyond a slight stutter when changing wallpaper (which I do a lot). Based on my observations, battery life is slightly better too. Happy with the update.

    Nokia 7 plus case suggestions.

    I am using a Fitbag corderoy slip case. I always get one of these for any phone I own as I like to use my devices as intended. The micro fibre lining keeps the phone smudge free.

    Nokia 7 Plus - the almost-flagship with a mid-range price

    I walked into a local Argos this afternoon and picked one up. Just finished the setup and initial impressions are great. Excellent build quality and the 660 CPU flies compared to previous 6 series devices I've owned. Feels very similar to my Pixel 2XL but half the price!

    Now a great value option for mid-range money

    You can now pick these up for £299 at Argos in the UK. Compared to similar priced mid-range (lower spec) models this is excellent value. Just picked one up and happy with my purchase.

    is pixel 2 your main driver?

    I have both sizes and honestly prefer the smaller version purely for it's pocketability so I would consider that my main driver although it's currently away having the rear glass replaced. It's easily the most responsive handset I've ever used - recently had an S8 and an LG G6 both of which were...

    Battery Life Thread

    I am seeing the same. Overall battery life has not changed for me (still hitting the same 50% left by bed time) on the same usage pattern but the drop to 99% seems to take less time than before.

    New Year same experience

    I bought the little one in the first week of December and it's big brother 3 weeks later. I love them both. I do find the smaller version more 'snappy' than it's bigger brother (which is lighting quick) and battery life is similar in my usage pattern.

    Anyone used SBE LTD for repairs in the UK

    Thanks, I think I will bite the bullet. I think this is the best handset I have ever used and will be using it for quite a while.

    Honeymoon Period

    I've had mine for 3 weeks now and it's hands down the best phone I have or have used. The speed and smoothness still blows me away and the camera is unbelievable. I have a stable of devices which I often rotate but this one is getting almost exclusively attention since day 1.

    Anyone used SBE LTD for repairs in the UK

    Yup, I dropped my 2 taking it out of it's Spigen case to clear some dust around the lens. Landed on my (tiled) kitchen floor from waist height and broke the rear glass. I'm now thinking of sending it to SBE for a repair (£165 - ouch!). Has anyone used them and can vouch for them?

    Is the X4 an Android One phone in all markets?

    No, it's not. Just bought one (for 279 at Carphone Warehouse). It's Moto software rather than the totally pure Android one software. Excellent phone for the money now!

    Nokia 8 Oreo Beta Test

    I downloaded it this morning and have nothing to report yet. Running great on mine. Love the new lighter settings interface. Love it!
