I've had an Xperia Z5 Compact for ages. It's a great phone, especially now I've paid off the handset and am paying next to nothing a month on a SIM only price-plan. Unfortunately, it is starting to get a bit slow. Most modern games I try on it just chug along, make the device stupidly hot. I'll probably do a full factory reset soon to see if that helps, but I doubt it will. Therefore I've been considering an upgrade.
However, it's been so long since I was in the market for a phone I have no real idea what's available. I barely use the "phone" element of my devices. Texts and phone minutes barely get used, and I use less than 1GB of data month on average due to having Wi-Fi everywhere. I don't want to pay a stupidly high tariff in order to get some better hardware. Ideally no more than £20 a month all inclusive.
So what phones should I be looking at? Because from what I can see there's basically nothing within that budget that even comes close to the features my current phone has. I want expandable storage (I currently have a 128GB Micro-SD), and a 3.5mm jack so I can use my dirt cheap headphones when I go for an evening stroll. It also has to be more powerful than an Xperia Z5 Compact. No point in "upgrading" if it's not going to run my gaming apps and emulators any better, is it?
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I anxiously await any recommendations.
