I think I just asked about androids in a price range and Mayen there's just not many options lol. I assumed because it still has a good reputation. And having a look at (mid level) phones, it seems like there isn't that much of a tech upgrade from my 6 year old phone. In fact a lot are worse and more expensive:(.

(If the 7a gets on any black Friday offers I'll try and get that I think)
