I would like a phone preferably with a removable battery.

I would also like the following (if possible).

A decent camera. (front and back)
A big screen with high resolution.

I have looked at the following phones:

Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Samsung Galaxy S5
LG G3

Any suggestions would be good.

Thanks in advance.

The S5 has probably the best and latest tech of them all.

You can probably wait for a really good price using a criteria like this:

If you could handle the size of the Note I would go for that (although it's just slightly too big for me).

After that it would prob be the LG G3 but it would be very close between that and the S5.

There is ment to be a S5 Prime coming out soon or even the Note 4 must be due soon though?

Note 4 is rumoured to be announced in early September, I am holding out for that before I choose my next upgrade.

I've owned all three of those phones and I'd rank them like this:

S5
note 3
LG G3

I studied all these phones in depth around a month ago before finally settling on the Samsung Note 3. The reasons I chose the Note 3 in the end were because the of the screen size, the S-Pen and the stunning battery life.

The S5 is nice, but it looked too much like my old S3, and I wanted something different while I just didn't get on with the LG G3 as it had just come out and I had only read reviews, and the Note 3 just seemed better for me.

Do I regret getting the Note 3? Not for a second, having done bench tests against the S5, the extra 1GB memory in the Note 3 more than makes up for the processor difference, with the Note 3 never skipping a beat. I've now skinned it with Nova Launcher to get the look I want, plus always on "Ok Google", and I love it. The screen size is a perfect for my hands, and watching films and videos on it is a pleasure to behold!
