Anything better than a Galaxy S4 without spending silly money?

Galaxy S4 is starting to drop calls and running very hot with rapid battery drain sometimes. Possibly just time for a new battery but considering a replacement phone.
The issue is it was a flagship phone and getting another phone with similar/better spec = spending the best part of £400 which i dont really want to do.
Is there anything better at £200 ish? Daughters got the A3 (2016) and even though thats £200 ish the screen is not as good and its a slower CPU etc etc.
Removeable battery would be nice but not critical, SD slot the same but if its 32GB+ then i can do without it.
But what has an approx 5" screen thats 1920x1080, 13mp+ camera, not fussed on the front one.
Quad core processor (1900MHz) and 2GB of RAM.
Anything beat that for £200?

Exactly what I just chose to replace my 3 yr old S4But I went for the 64GB version with 4GB RAM direct from Motorola for just over £250 using a £10 off code from Topcashback and £10 cashback has tracked already.

If you don't want (or need) the Plus version, you can get the Moto G4 from John Lewis for £159.95. (They even had it for £129.95 for the August bank holiday weekend).0 -
Phoned Voda for my PAC when they could not offer a decent SIM only deal, towards the end they said they can do better deals with a phone included.
Code received and i was going to get the £9 3 Sim only deal. Unl Min, Unl Txt and 4GB data. Curiously i phoned Voda back the day after to enquire what they could offer on a galaxy S6.
£19.20 a month + £5 delivery. Seems like a deal.. £250 for an S6? over 2 years. Unl Min & Txt. Only 3GB data but thats enough.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0
