I need a new phone and have come up empty so far in my online search. These are the features that are important to me.
+ Unlocked GSM
+ & lt; 450 USD
+ & lt;= 4.7" screen
+ Camera quality
+ Battery
+ Build quality
Not as important are:
+ The fastest processor
+ The sharpest screen
Any suggestions?
1. Money. I don't game or do processor intensive stuff on my phone so I don't need to pay for the latest technology.
2. Size. I have a tablet, I want something more portable and comfortable in the hand.
Let me say that I have the Q 10 since last Dec. It is an excellent phone, and since it isn't that popular, it is a great deal.
Nokia Lumia 830 - ( New Window )
It's got a 5" screen.
Our Nexus devices (4s & 7s) are fine.

I think the best choice may be the Xperia z1 compact, but there's reports of quality control issues.
I hate the phablet trend.
