Hey there,
First of all...I'll explain the requirements.
- Two phones.
- One with a single sim. One with a dual sim.
- One of the phones to have more than 32GB.
- Cameras aren't a huge plus for me. It's nice. Won't buy a phone just because the camera is THE BEST.
- Battery life is big.
- I'm not a fan of large phones so anything above 5.1"-5.2" is out of the question.
- Unlocked. Will use the phones in my travels all over the world.
- I'd like to root them, so if there's no root for one of those models (as the case with my current S5), then... no good.
I came down to a final list of:
Galaxy S7.
Pixel.
P9.
P10.
Trying to decide on the best duo. Obviously if I get the Pixel then the other one will be the Dual Sim one.
Worries re each of the options:
Pixel - Price ; If that's the one with more than 32GB then the next option is 128GB which is too much and $100 more expensive, which is obviously a rip off ; If I get a 32GB Pixel then it forces me to get the other phone with 64GB cause that other phone will be Dual-Sim and all three of them have only two slots for - 2 SIMs + SD Card.
Galaxy S7 - User Reviews are good not great ; Battery?
P9 - Possible eMMC ; Mixed reviews on battery life ; Can spend the extra $200 on a P10, just not sure if it's worth it.
P10 - Possible eMMC ; Mixed reviews on battery life ; Is it worth the $200 over the P9?
I prefer to go around with an extra battery than a thick-heavy mobile charger, yet all the finalists have a non-removeable battery. If you think of another phone that is as good as the finalists but has a removeable battery...would be happy to know.
Big thanks!
