Samsung Galaxy J5 ? used one ?

[Sarah]

Yawn, still trying to figure out some technology, tough for a blond dinosaur

Looking at getting a new phone I think. Current one is cheap and frustrating; teeny memory, rubbish GPS signal, it is fine for basic call/text/surf at home [Huawei]

Want something for back up mapping on trips, maybe Strava because that Veloviewer sounds interesting. Might get Garmin later if needed, prefer paper maps still [see dinosaur ] but cant put hardly any apps on it, not even phone banking and it struggles to ever get GPS signal, regardless of location.

So looking at the J5, altho a little more than I really want to spend, it reviews well, good battery life etc. Anyone got one ? use it for biking/mapping/playing out ? Waddaya think ?

Thanks in advance.

I'm interested too. Was trying to decide between Xperia x5 and the J5 the other day as my current Xperia z has been having some hiccups lately. X5 and J5 are same price and similarish spec on Vodafone.

I've had an Xperia z1 for age and that's been great for everything including mapping and strava, which I use it for pretty much daily, but neither x5 or j5 are water resistant /proof like the z1. It does seem that the x5 still has gorilla glass which is tougher than the J5 screen.

I'd look here :

(I'm a Samsung user, can vouch for S7 edge being great for maps, photos, the cold & wet but it ain't cheap)
