    The battery capacity for a G5 is 2800mAh so charging it daily I would expect, my old Nexus 5 has a 2300mAh battery

    Big advantage its removable ...........brillant

    OP make sure you download an app to keep track of your data usage.
  • Is anyone using Sky mobile. If so, is it any good?
    Thanks for reading. Live long & prosper
  • I would like to tell you that Gretel GT6000
    Sounds fantastic (except for the naff name maybe), can you tell us your website address to buy it?

    I've just ordered my Sky Mobile SIM. £5 a month, unlimited calls & texts to UK and 500 MB. Every MB that I don't use gets rolled in to my "Piggy Bank" and saved for me to use as and when I want / need it. Going to CPW tomorrow to get phone. I'll have a look at the Moto G5 even though there are some negative reviews but I like the Huawei P8 Lite 2017 more at the moment. (Android)

    I presume you're aware that you have to pay another £10 a month if you leave Sky at any time? If you're a light data user and intend to keep Sky then it's a decent deal however the rollover is only redeemable in 500MB chunks so it'll take a couple of months at least (depending on usage) before you have any rollover that you can access.

    I guess the OP could cancel it within 14 days if not opened/used

    Thought plusnet would be better
  • Sky and CPW. What a combination!

    I googled the Gretel, to check. Found it for sale on amazon. Don't rush to judge.
