Great deal Steve :xxgrinning--00xx3:

use the Motorola Migrate App to transfer all the stuff from your old phone https://www.motorola.com/us/motorola-migrate/motorola-migrate.html - If I recall it's installed on the phone

Mrs D got the S6 standard a few weeks ago not the Ghia model. You get a lot of Samsung bloatware for your money Les it took me 5 minutes to find where to dial a number from :biggrin:

Actually it's very nice but about 4 or 5 times my budget

A top phone Steve. I like the stock Android keeps it all simple and doesn't clog the phone with unneccesary stuff.

The only thing I couldn't get my head around was the email app seems very much like gmail with limited search/select all & delete type features.

I mainly use 2 email address's a domain based one and gmail - this Mailwise app does the job fine with a combined inbox https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.syntomo.email

I need a new one. The plastic bit inside the leather cover has broken so it doesn't hold the phone. Only had it a few months before that happened but I'd still buy another.

Well already I have the s4 but the bloatware has been mainly removed by me so nothing Samsung pops up.

Ded you will be proud of me. I decided not to bother with new phone, keep my old one and gone sim only for £15 a month (instead of £60 a month)
