Help with buying an N3 clone!

[steve1221]

Hi there guys,

Hope you can all help me save what little hair I have left

I've been looking and reading up on N3 clones for the last couple of weeks or so, and whenever I think I've found the one for me I then read something that changes my mind!

I was sure I'd get the No1 N3, then I read a review that says its not 1.5 and the build quality is really poor and it's not a true N3 1:1 as N3 cases etc don't fit as it's a few mm wider! One of the things I'd like to do is use N3 cases.

I then switched to octa core models and now I'm even more confused!

So, can you guys answer a few questions;

I don't play games, so do I need an 8 core handset?
I'd like an HD display, but on a 5.7 inch display can you really tell the difference between 720p and 1080 ?
I'd like a reasonable battery life. I realize that with a large screen that's a bit of an ask...
I'd like to use N3 cases and covers.
I'm in the UK, so must be GSM, but I guess that most, if not all, of them are.

And finally, not too bothered about price, I've funds burning a hole in my Paypal acc.

So what do you lot recommend,

Thanks...
