Don't know if a secondhand Nexus 6 falls into the £300 bracket, a very good phone though if it does! If you don't mind going down slightly in screen size there's the Note 4 and LG G4 (again, probably secondhand, best buying from Game or CEX for the warranty btw).

Is that a phone in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?

Seriously, 6 inches?

Some people like to be able actually see the screen on a phone rather than be pissing about with something tiny of 5” or less. I mean what is the point of a phone like that?

Nexus 6. Nothing comes close at that price point, you should be able to knab a 64gb model for less than £300. Otherwise you are looking at the Huawei Mate 6 or the Huawei P8 Max, but the first one is old now and the second is more than £300.

Obviously everyone is different. I don't think I could go back to a 3.5 or even a 4 inch phone, but I do think 6 inches is pushing the bounds of practicality a wee bit!!

If you don't fancy that site then I can recommend Smartfonestore.com. The have new N6 32gb for £270 and grade A for £250. A lot of phone for the money.

Expansys also do the 6 at £275, but expect deals to hit so hope for £250!

5.5" and a mid CPU, but the great battery life Moto X Play is £200 on Amazon today, though again I would expect other deals to hit the news in the xmas run-in.

Sure enough, the Nexus 6 is prominant in the Black Friday sale.
At Motorolas own uk website, its on weekend special at £250 for 32GB. An extra 32GB sets you back 60 quid more.

Seems to have all the usual high end stuff such as a 2K+ screen and a more decent camera with OIS. It is Amoled too, just not quite Samsung Amoled quality. However it does.mean you are getting a lot for your money.
