Huawei G300 £65 from Tesco

Opera mobile CLASSIC for me as the default browser.

A while ago Opera for Android was totally rewritten but I hate the new version, it has tiles you can't disable that waste your bandwidth pointlessly updating themselves and the interface is ruined.

If you look on the store they try to point you towards to new version but fortunately they have had to make the 'classic' version still available due to people refusing the new version.

(switch on 'show exit button' and 'text wrapping' in settings)

I agree with this totally, recently downloaded the new Opera(red O on a silver surround/background) to my tablet but after just a couple of days deleted it and downloaded the original Classic.

How can companies like Opera make such a mess of things?

There are issues with ICS in general not 'remembering' the selection you make in setting to use internal/SD and it tends to default back to internal.

Don't suppose there's an update on this is there?
'Our' phone has only 173MB left on the internal storage, but 5.69GB left on the SD card??

Well after 13 months of solid MSE performance my G300 has died.

I'll be sending it back to either Huawei or Very but will be picking up a Moto G tomorrow so the the 300 may end up in a drawer anyway.

Its been fun while it lasted...

That soon?! Did you have a warentee on it?

Don't bother with Very, send it direct to the authorised Huawei repair centre. However I think the warranty is only 12 months, but if it's the PCB failed then make a case for a free repair anyway-you have nothing to lose.
They fixed and returned mine in less than a week: excellent service.

No, the warranty is definitely 2 years. I sent mine back to Huawei due to a failure and their service was superb.

So no need for a Moto G then...
