    It's missing UK frequencies, you need to make sure that any phone you choose is capable of LTE 800/1800/2100/2600 for full U.K. coverage.

    So what would people go with the wileyfox or the xiaomi, both 2ghz processor with 16gb internal memory. Cant decide which is better?

    Wileyfox if was me, you have a UK warranty and can buy from Amazon for their excellent after sales service.

  • looks like the 3gb ram and 32gb internal memory blows everything else out of the water!

    What do mean by "those"? The Wileyfox? If so, I t's sold by Amazon, you can just search Amazon and you'll see it.

    Im on three mobile, will the xiaomi work?

    The one you linked to above? It will only work partially as it is missing one of the LTE frequencies that Three have.

  • sorry I meant frquencies, what do I need for three, cant find it on their website anywhere. I have a moto g 3 currently which barely runs as I have more than 5 apps on it, painfully slow, will the wileyfox run any better, as far as I can see just has more memory and everything else is on par with the moto g 3

    Currently it's mainly 1800 with 800 also in use. Other networks have started using 2100 and there's a good chance Three will do likewise at some stage in the near future.

    In case you change network you should also ensure you have 2600.
