After years of having a dumbphone which served me well I'm thinking about getting a smartphone, but I have quite specific requirements. Maybe someone has experience in that sea of smartphones, I really don't want to read thousands of tests to find a fitting phone...
I don't need the most current phone and I pretty much don't care about brands so if some unknown brand smartphone fits my requirements - why not?
Requirements:
Things I don't care about:
Thanks in advance
I don't need the most current phone and I pretty much don't care about brands so if some unknown brand smartphone fits my requirements - why not?
Requirements:
- The longer the battery life is the better, my dumbphone needs a charge every 1 1/2 weeks or so, and I really hate the work iPhone 4S for needing a charge every day or two days at most, even if I don't use it
- Bluetooth for the hands-free kit in the car (I guess every smartphone has Bluetooth, but still...)
- Not more than 200 Euros in Germany (!), can be used as well, I know people who have to have a new smartphone every 6 months so there are some out there with little wear and tear
- Not bigger than 120mm x 60mm, the work iPhone 4S is OK, but it absolutely must not get bigger
- No cheap plastic, at least it shouldn't feel cheap
- No Windows Phone
- Should be usable out of the box, I don't want to root a phone for being usable
Things I don't care about:
- Camera - should be decent for snapshots, but for more I have a normal camera with zoom etc.
- LTE - I don't really use the Internet that much, and if I use it on the go I mostly have some Wi-Fi I can access.
- GPS - I have a satnav and don't want a phone holder for my car
Thanks in advance
