    Though out of your budget you've mentioned I do have an iPhone 6s 64GB, unlocked (purchased from Apple store) in gold, mint condition with AppleCare + until November 2017 for sale for £350. Boxed and like new ;)

    Sadly, I could have let you have a Galaxy S4 for postage but my daughter did some kind of rootkit jiggery-pokery and it suffered a fit of the vapours. Good luck.

    EDIT: That'll teach me to update threads before replying.

    I'll come back when I eventually crack and get one. On my hols back to the UK last year it was very hard to buy a coach ticket without one!

    The best cheapie smart phones are those Nokia Lumias if you ask me. Just personal experience I'm basing this on.

    I'd like to know the reason why she would like an Apple over countless other phones. The most common answer I get, which is anywhere near the truth, is... I don't know.

    There's an awful lot of buying research been done there.!

    One day my pink very thick phone will give up the ghost and I may be in the market for a smart phone. My son reckons he'll kill himself first. He's thought of buying me a smart phone before, but then goes and lies down till he feels better.

    Good for her, and good for Phil Scraton too. Absolutely 100% behind them.

    Just received a Happy New Year message from my ex-partner, which reminded my that NZ Saints are 10 minutes or so into 2017. Happy New Year to them.

    Fancy phones are seen as accessories by some....like expensive watches and handbags. That's why you see idiots queuing to get the latest ones.....as if it matters whether you have it now or in a month. You only need what you need.....mine is for emergencies and is only used for a few texts and phone calls. May only be used a few times a week.

    Yes, I realise that, but only the most shallow of people will openly admit to it, given a direct question why. Incidentally, if you did want a smartphone there are endless factory refurbished new ones on ebay. They work perfectly well and even have 1 year guarantees, plus are a fraction of the price of brand new. Physical condition is mostly excellent.

    When you realise that 99% of users don't even stretch the capabilities of good smartphones from 3-4 years ago, buying the latest is the equivalent of going to a store and paying twice as much for any item you want. Or to put it another way, ending up paying for a Winnebago when all you actually wanted was a weekend Campervan.
