Hi,

EE contract up soon and looking to go Sim only (maybe with IDmobile) and buy a phone.
Reviews on KINGZONE Z1 seem good. Anyone used one or ordered from their website before?

Website link

Thanks
Paul
 
have you read the review by mi_oh in that link?
the spiel looks too good to be true.

you need to state what the budget is for the handset...
ftr ... i'm looking to move back to LG with the G4 rather than go Galaxy S6 after the S5. No removable battery and microsd slot are deal breakers. Especially the battery.

Non-removable batteries are actually scary. The battery removal is the only way to know for sure that the mic cannot be turned on remotely without your consent.
 
The ID mobile uses 3's network. Be sure that you have good reception where you use it.

Absolutley $hit network for me. I get poor reception at home. No reception at work. Stuggle to hear/be heard and keeps going in/out of service. I went back to them on the 15th day and they effectively told me nothing to be done even though I had just spotted the reception dropping in/out issue. Phone was not really being used as my other number has lots of credit and still on holiday so could not see at issue at work.

Might be good for some, but not me. They said they would ring me back, they may have not even after a week. They may have, but I can hardly get any reception and home number does not allow withheld numbers.

Carphone Warehouse's network and service is really poor for me. Might be good for others

I went for IdMobile sim only deal. Its a 30 day contract and if it doesnt work out, at least I'm not tied in. I've used Three for many years before EE and reception is good in my area. Just waiting to port my number across now. Budget for new phone is around £300. I like the LG G4 and it seems to be coming down in price. May wait a few more weeks until I get something.
