Hi everyone, just wanting some opinions of what phone circa $400 I should go for.

My main wants are:

battery life (over 4000 mah battery)
Screen size over 6.2"
Camera is reasonable (coming from a Mimax 2)

Want it delivered before mid May and TRS eligible a plus.

This F1 has a good camera. Sort of.

I haven't used the Note 7 but the bloatware from previous Redmi phones is too much for me.

Also, the 845 CPU in the F1 is a cut above the rest. You don't need to be a gamer to appreciate it.

I've really enjoyed my time with my F1 and my next phone will very likely be the F2.

MM2 user here.

I'm holding off until seeing the rumoured MM3 Pro in a couple of months.

If unimpressed then hopefully the F1 is even more affordable by then.

  The Mimax 3 looks to be getting up to 7" though.

    Hadn't kept up with news as it seems the MM3 Pro isn't happening and the MM4 will be next in the lineup.
    
    I really like the big screen, big battery design philosophy and the MM4 looks like it will be larger than 7.0".
    
    Could finally retire my Nexus 7 2013's.
