After some advise please guys !
After broke screen on my Xiaomi mi4c im looking for new phone, max budget is around £200. Will be used for watching movies and browsing, will not play any games.
like the look of Redmi Note 4X but not sure about OS on it as on my mi4c I had problems with Whatsapp which didnt work great. Had a look at motorola G5 but apparently new gen ones are not as good as previous. Do like the look at Lenovo P2 but can only get it from China which goes over the budget.
Also Nokia 6 and Redmi Note 5 coming out soon ....

Any opinions please guys !!
 
I'd be interested to know this as well. My current phone is pretty much knackered and there is no way I can justify paying the cost of a flagship phone from Samsung. £200 is about as much as I am willing to spend as well but I have no clue at all when it comes to phones.
 
I just bought an honor 6x for £190 and I'm perfectly happy with it. I think they cost a bit more now as mine was on special offer at Argos.
 
Can't find the P2 for reasonable prices without it coming from abroad.

3 staff say they are end of life, not sure whether EOL from Lenovo's side as supplier to 3, or from 3's perspective as vendors to end users. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the former as it competes and undermines the moto brand.
 
Thanks for your feedback all, much appreciated. Really keen to get P2 but as they dont have any in UK (should have got one when 3 were selling them) I bit the bullet and went for Redmi Note 4X. After looking at all the reviews seems like decent phone for £117, will root it and put custom ROM on it. Hopefully will last me a year or so :)
 
We wanted the P2 but couldn't get hold of one. I don't think three were selling them for very long or in any serious quantities.

I suspect they made more money off competing brands so made the P2 EOL.

Shame :(
