Mine's currently a Huawei Ascend Y300-100. I got it because it was a
cheap option, with a lot of internal memory (I thought). In practice,
I haven't found a way or rooting it, so the useable memory now is less
than I achieved on my rooted Samsung Galaxy. Memory handling is awful
on Android systems. I think you need to do a factory reset every six
months. Also, I've now gone very sour towards Android since I bought
an Android Tablet, and got so frustrated with the way it wanted me to
work that I gave it the grand kids.
I quite agree with you about Android phones! I have a Sony Xperia E3
that has 8GB internal storage with <1GB free. I also have a Windows
phone, with 8GB internal storage that with very similar apps installed
has >3GB free! How can that be?
I expect my next phone will be an Ubuntu Phone. It will depend on
what apps I can get for it. The only two Android apps I depend on are
the free satnav app, and the Virgin phone app that lets me make WiFi
calls from anywhere in the world via my landline based system.
As long as the phone can access Owncloud calendar, tasks and Contacts,
then it'll do for me!
