Resolved Question

What to choose?

Mar 19, 2015 1:16AM PDT

So I am in the position to get a new phone (for free), but the problem is that none of them is actually that good as they are mostly cheap. Anyway, I would like to ask for an opinion from anyone who has a minute or two to spare. The choice is between these 4 phones:

LG Optimus G2 mini: http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g2_mini-6077.php

Sony Xperia T3: http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_t3-6408.php

Huawei Ascend P6: http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_ascend_p6-5467.php

Huawei Ascend Mate: http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_ascend_mate-5237.php

Thank you!

Just on spec alone.

The http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_ascend_p6-5467.php seems to edge out the others because it has 2GB RAM and a later release date. There's more. It could be the 16GB model and with the single SIM you can pop in a 32GB memory card. The areas of RAM, storage (16GB onboard solves many issues for folk) and the SD Card would have me look closer at this one.

1GB RAM is OK but 2GB would have me not looking at app space crunch as soon.

Just as I thought

I was thinking the same. If the Xperia had ~2Gb RAM it would be the best one by a mile.
