What do you expect for 142 quid! It's a bargain. Anyway, let's get real about this, if the phone doesn't have decent optics, it don't matter squat how many pixels it's got, it'll still produce a crap image. How you can tell whether a phone has good optics? - now there's a question - wish I knew!

I somehow assume that if a phone has many megapixels it can produce good photo's.
One thing is for sure, if the camera sucks the pictures will suck

Found it on a Dutch compare website... Perhaps I read it wrong?
Anyway, I went for the Samsung Galaxy S4. A bit more expensive than I had in mind, but it's a nice phone

I would second the OnePlus One
Had mine a few months, outperforms most other flagship phones for less than 1/2 the price.
Was a bit hard to get hold of, not sure how easy now but worth the effort.

It seems a little... Alternative...
Probably not my thing. I want to make phone calls and I'm not even sure this thing can handle it, despite it's beautiful layout.

MOTO G 2014 seems to be an option.

"Google's decision to not support synching on Windows Phone has made it pretty useless for me..."
Why in the world would you even want to sync with an advertising company???

So he can keep up with his adverts!

I never miss a bargain! (Except that one on the Motorola with 5mp camera)

Really, do they advertise?
I haven't noticed since I have adblock on my PC and I never got an ad on my phone either.
All I know is they have the best search engine around (Bing isn't even close!), they have a pretty sweet free email service, they have a pretty good browser that does everything I expect from a browser and they are the biggest player in the mobile phone market.
Am I concerned about privacy? They're probably not as bad as Facebook (what I don't have)...
The alternative is Apple (iPhone, Safari, do they have a search engine and email service?), but I'm not an iDiot who buys mediocre overpriced stuff because it has some brand.
And then there's Microsoft, but as said I've had it with my Windows Phone, Bing and IE suck, I'm not sure they take my privacy any more serious than Google, and Outlook is pretty nice, but doesn't offer some of the features I like about Gmail.
Other tech giants like Facebook or Amazon don't offer phones, search engines, free email, a browser... At least not that I know of.
So yeah, I decided to just switch to Google...
To bad there isn't much in terms of alternatives.

I suggest you LG G2: good screen 5.2 inch (full HD), and good camera (13 megapixel)
Or LG G3, but it's expensive and the screen size is big: 5.5 inch (2560 x 1440 QHD)

The Motorola Moto X is a fantastic option, especially given the price. Almost stock Android, timely updates, and great hardware. I have one, and it's probably my favorite smartphone to date.
EDIT: Or, if you want the cheaper option, the G is almost as good and significantly cheaper...

Is it just me or is the way the confirmation dialogs in Mac OS Yosemite race out of the screen and bounce at you really, really, REALLY irritating? I've just deleted a whole bunch of calendar items with each delete requiring two of these crazy, zooming, bouncing dialogs in my face each time.

It's just you! Normal people do not use MacOS ...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I can't stand animations; they provide meaningless information. Can they be turned off? Thanks for reminding me to check my settings (Win 7).

Oh great, yet another "It's just work" moment from Apple.
I been out on medical leave and haven't experienced this gem as of yet but I do know that IT has updated my MacBook that I use to Yosemite. For every update there half a dozen other updates to xCode and the libraries and the devices I debug on. Yeah.. it'll be great to get back to work.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

They soon fixed that.

What calendar app are you using?
I just got home (to my iMac with Yosemite) and using the OS X Calendar app I created an event and deleted it without any confirmation required let alone a crazy, zooming, bouncing, in my face dialog.

The standard one.
I was deleting a recurring event - that may have been the cause of the bouncing and flashing and craziness.

OK - so I actually only installed it last night so haven't noticed anything yet.
