Get an Obamaphone!
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

If you like the big screens then the Note 4 is nice. I upgraded from a note 1

this kind of stuff does my head in as well but I bit the bullet and ordered a upgrade contract with a sony xperia Z3 yesterday
my decision was based on battery life, camera quality, dust/water proof and commitment from sony to upgrade to Lollipop next year (I was so pissed upset at HTC that they never updated my HD2 from windows 6.5) oh and the fact that the Z3 apparently MAKES PHONE CALLS as well. Who knew you could do that away from the house
of course it may all turn out to be pies in the sky but at least I am happy waiting for it to arrive
Now all I need is for the indoors signal where I live to be upgraded past intermittent GPRS and I will be able to use it as well

Try the Motorola G 2nd generation. 5 inch screen, dual sims and you can add an micro SD card up to 32Gb. All for £144 quid from Amazon in the UK.

Why would I want dual sim?

It's camera is only 5 megapixel. I want at least 8. So that's a no

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.
cheers

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)
