I currently have a OnePlus One. But I was looking for a good camera phone that can swap sims out with and carry around sometimes. Does anyone here have any experience with a Lumia 1020 or the Lumia 1520?

NOOOOOO don't get a windows phone they are terrible and they have no apps. The S6 has a pretty decent camera. The G4 has many professional camera options such as "manual mode" which allows you to change aperture, lighting, flash sequences and "dslr like options"

The lumias have great cameras, but when youre paying that much purely for a phone camera, you could just get an actual camera...

I'd go with the LG G4. I would swap my iPhone 6+ in an instant for that phone just because of the camera. even though the OIS sucks.

The reason I am looking for a 1020 or a 1520 is because I can get a cheap used one in decent condition for around $160 unlocked.

Yeh you can get windows phones ALOT cheaper than the equivalent iphone etc... Which can only be a bonus if all you want is a decent camera that does call, text and internet.

LG G4 (own it myself)is probably the best ATM, if not Samsung GS6. Windows phones you can live with but the windows store is terrible.

Intel i5-6600k (Cooled by a 212 evo) - Asus Z170-A - Asus Dual OC GTX 1060 - NZXT S340 - WD 1TB (Getting SSD this month, hopefully) - 8GB DDR4-2400

LG G4 - Asus Zenwatch 2
