    Hi all,

    Which is the better phone between these three smartphones?

    · Samsung Galaxy Core Prime
    · Sony Xperia E4G
    · Vodafone Smart 4 Turbo

    I have nearly enough Vodafone Cherry Points to get one of these phones but I am confused as to which would be the better option.

    The 3 are very similar but I would go for the Sony because its a little newer and the battery life will that bit better over the other two

    I would say avoid the Sony. I thought mine was amazing for a few months and now it's my worst phone ever. The battery isn't removable and it's buggy as hell. Mine was in for repair at the start of June (faulty electrical component) and 7 weeks later it's gone again. I'm getting the Core Prime as a short term replacement until my contract is up next spring.

    Lots of problems with the core prime, I would of said the Sony myself.
    Hold out for a bit the Moto G 3rd Gen is launching soon for €179.99 or buy the Smart 6 plus from Vodafone.

    Re the Moto G 3rd Gen
    saw it promoted in the tech section of Irish Times on Thursday "from euro 180," but can't see it anywhere in the bricks and mortar shops.

    even on line it seems to be 250 plus?

    Any thoughts?
    Thanks.

    1 or 2 GB version? If its the 1GB version, the Smart Ultra 6 is miles ahead of it. SD410 vs SD615 too.

    All the crap can be deleted from the phone. If you wish to spend double the money for the exact same insides thats your choice.

    I specifically asked the experts in the VF shop in the Pavilions if I could do that and they said not.
