Thanks to all of you who replied, very much appreciated! :beer:
Had a quick look at the Huawei phones and certainly looks very impressive! And yes you are right, the media isnt always to be believed

also consider the Moto G7 Power. i had a samsung S7 that was a great phone but needed charging twice a day so researched new lower priced handsets and settled on the G7 Power. it has a 5000mAh battery and truely lasts 2 days of heavy usage. i use it to watch sports on and the screen quality is excellent. possibly not as good as the samsung but not noticibly inferior.

others state that the camera in low light is not up tp much but i generally use it outdoors and picture quality is excellent. if battery life is the paramount imortance to you (as it was for me) i would highly recommend this handset.
i bought from Amazon on it's release date in March of this year and at £179 i consider it a steal.

Can second how good the Motorola G6 and G7 are for battery life. Don't have statistics but never had a problem with battery life

Motorola wins hands down when you take in to account cost vs battery life
My 3 year old G4 still lasts 24 hours of fairly heavy use - on a single charge
and that is with the 3000mAh battery - the G7 has a 5000mAh battery - so should last 2 days +
They are significantly cheaper than Samsung as well !!
It's up to you - but I would avoid Huawei for the moment !

if OP looking at S10+ to start with, I doubt camera at Moto G7 power is good enough for her.

Well that was a turn of events wasnt it!!


I so very nearly went into town to look and possibly buy the Huawei P30pro phone as after looking at various options and the P30 series I decided it fitted my needs. Turns out to be fortitious that I didnt make it judging by the news today :eek:


Back to the drawing boards and will have a look at those other models suggested by some of you

It's possible that this will never actually happen but then again it's not my money

Maybe have a look at the Xiaomi Pocophone F1 mentioned earlier which has a cracking spec including a 4000mAh battery for a lot less than a Samsung 10 Plus.
