Anyone got an opinion?

The only other option i thought maybe the Leeco Lemax 2 with the 2k screen, sd820/530 and the 21mp Sony sensor with OIS, OIS does seem to make a difference.

I figured this was broad as so many budget brands, but that sensor and dual cam on the new M6 note really is good. Ok maybe not an HTC11 but for my needs, good enough.

I looked at a Le Eco Lemax 2, but the sensor isnt that great.

I considered a refurbed LG G5 off aliexpress as Im In NZ. But was concerned if it broke down.

Then the M6 was released. Utilising the same sensor as the HTC U11, but costing 1/5th the price, even with likely lesser lens, the IQ seems pretty darn good and it suprisingly does a good job of blur quality (bokeh) with the Samsung secondary camera.

For $270 NZD, given its a 4000mah battery and fast charge and getting Oreo. Would you consider it the best phone for my purposes?
