Need a new phone

[OfficialJsP]

So I am in the market for a new phone my budget is around £150 the phone doesn't have to be brand new but at least in good condition this is a list of phones I have been looking at

 

Phones:

HTC One m7 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/351203691568?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT)

Motorola Moto G (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorola-Moto-G-16GB-Unlocked-sim-Free-Smartphone-Black-Brand-New-/281784880220?hash=item419bb00c5c:g:K-8AAOSwu4BV4BzX)

LG Nexus 5 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321535242508?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT)

 

feel free to suggest phones I would like them to have at least 16GB of storage and if not a micro sd card slot also I would prefer to stay away from apple products thanks in advance.

NEXUS

Of the ones you listed the nexus is best

Nexus 5 is a great phone. Especially since Marshmallow dropped. Fixed a ton of issues and my two year old Nexus now works better than it ever has. Only downsides are no additional storage, hard to replace battery and a rather mediocre camera. Rest of the phone is excellent.

I am currently still using an HTC One M7 from when it first came out. I've had it replaced once by my carrier after it stopped charging, although that is mostly because Micro-USB is crap.

Pros:

• The camera is great, although not high mega-pixels so zooming and cropping is bad.
• The front facing speakers are amazing, but not very loud.
• Has a fast processor (for being 3 years old).
• The UI is quite nice, even though it's not stock android.
• Premium feel to it, being a unibody alumunium.

Cons:

• Not much RAM so multi-tasking is only OK, but not great by today's standards.
• Speakers aren't very loud.
• Don't even bother zooming or cropping photos.
• No SD card slot (although I've never gone over the 8gb on-board storage of my model).
• End of it's life cycle, so no more updates from HTC.

 

Note that the last con is pretty important. Although the latest update has brought it up to Android Lollipop (5.0.2) you won't ever see Marshmallow (6.0) on it (not officially at least).

HTC does still udate it's own apps through the google play store, such as the camera, it's gallery app and, more importantly, Sense UI.

 

To summarise:

A really nice phone, but if you can get something newer, do that.

HTC One M7 is a great phone (I have it myself) but the only thing that bugs me about it, is the 2300mAh battery & 4 "Ultrapixel" camera... But other than that, I love it [emoji4] You could go for the Nexus 5 because it's the best performing one from those 3 listed BUT it has the same size battery as the M7, so battery life on it is rather meh... The Moto G is good, but it's rather a phone for just texting, calling & sometimes an non heavy occasional game from time to time (atleast in my eyes)... So the decision is on you now [emoji4]

For that price I would recommend a good phone that is from China most likley the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 and it completely obliterates the choices you put out and you can even get a AOSP rom for it if you don't like MIUI 7. you can get the 32GB version for £115 on gearbest (EU Warehouse). But you will only get 4G on Vodafone and EE.

 

Here are the specs:
