I'm looking to buy an Android phone to replace my non-smartphone (i.e. anything would be better). It's easy to compare the expensive flagship phones from each company, but lower down the stack where I'm interested there are so many options.
What I want out of it:
- Smooth scrolling, clean interface by default. Not planning to buy any apps.
- Priorities are internet, music, and file storage
- Won't be watching video or taking pictures
- Smaller form factor. More like 11cm than 12.5cm.
On pricing, around the Galaxy Ace 2 / Xperia U / One V would be good. (I live in the UK)
Also, what is the common knowledge about upgrading to later Android versions manually? Is it a good idea?
