My M8 is on its last legs, as evidenced by so many hardware and software problems that have popped up lately. What do you guys think of the Z5 Compact? Suitable replacement? Good value at $400? Good phone?

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

Should've mentioned this: size is critical. Size of the M8 is absolutely the biggest I'm willing to go, smaller is better. No more bricks lol

my mum has the phone its quite durable and can record at 4k

it can have up to a 200gb sd card

of amazon it costs around $509 but if you shop around $300

small rim size making it easy to to hold

however here are the disadvantages 

it needs a micro sim the battery wont lest you a long time as it last my mum someone that dose not use it a lot around 8 hours. it can pick up scratches adn its only a 810 quad cor 2 ghz to 1.5 ghz which to be frank is appaling

Don't really know any alternatives than, other than the iPhone 7 or the possible Shamesung A3 2017 edition

Possibly dumb question evidencing my lack of knowledge in the phone market, but is the Z5 Compact's price going to come way down once the X Compact drops?
