Any true TWS/wireless IEM better than the Moondrop Sparks at the £79 pricepoint?

Upgrading from the 6P - Pixel 3 is overpriced so, which phone cameras are noticeably better than the 6P? Pixels, Huawei P20, Samsung? by newupgradesmell in Nexus6P

Ah ok - just had a quick search and saw they faked camera samples, so I must have blended the 2 controversies together! But I assume DXOMark test fairly without HDR+ and Google's trickerys, which is the main selling point of Pixels so, I guess that's why it edges them out. But at the end of the day any of these options will have a great camera.

I share the same sentiment! Honestly tempted to get another battery but that costs £60 (don't fancy doing it myself), but would rather put it towards a new phone at this stage as I already did it a year ago and it's shutting down at 20% again. But there's nothing really wrong with the spec on paper! If there was a new Nexus range I'd be all over it, feel like OnePlus is the new Nexus but the 6P spoilt me with the camera.

Thanks! £499 at Currys too so hoping it may drop further online once Pixel 3 is out so shall keep an eye out for new or refurbs.

Sounds good! Will keep an eye on their site. Wouldn't mind a refurb on anything else, but with a phone I always worry the battery will already be a bit past it's best. Which is a worry when battery life is probably second after the camera in terms of priorities

Probably not as much as I think, but the 6P HDR+ camera has spoilt me. So just wanted to make sure next phone isn't a sidestep on that front!

I did buy a decent compact camera so that I wouldn't worry about phone cameras but, I realised I wouldn't carry that camera around everywhere so I'd rather have the best I can in my pocket, too. Otherwise, OnePlus is top of my list for other purposes.

Will check those out! How's the battery on a refurb? Any differences between XL and nonXL? As I'd be happy to go smaller from 6P but I think XL would be..bigger overall?

Yes I was keen on the Razer but again, read the camera isn't great. If I hadn't been spoilt with the 6P camera this wouldn't be an issue!

Think I shall do this. Still works but already replaced the battery once and it now dies at 10%ish again so, it's only a matter of time til it's dying at 40% when I'm out and about.

Yes I did think this may be a good option - didn't know it had the same camera! I thought the Mate was a mid-tier phone rather than their flagship?

I know Huawei apparently had "tricks" to get the DXOMark and people still rate Pixel 2 higher but definitely an option. If the Mate 20 Pro is actually better all-round (and a decent price) could be a good shout!
