I have an iPhone 5 and I really liked it until the battery and lock button broke down and Apple started forcing their increasingly stupid updates on me.

I want an Android phone with similar great build quality to the iPhone 5, not a huge screen, nice smooth touch, no bloatware, fast components, nice looking screen etc.

Everything is not needed, but I want it to be able to compare with the iPhone 7 and feel similar to the iPhone 5 (best designed phone imo).

Is there such a phone?

>It's been brought to our attention that nVIDIA now has telemetry included with its drivers most likely if you installed GeForce Experience with the drivers. I'm getting conflicting reports whether it's specific to GeForce Experience or not. Regardless, it also continues the bloat with nVIDIA Wireless Controller and ShadowPlay services, something many don't need.
>First, let's go over what these are.
>Telemetry is essentially considered spying by many as it is a way to send data back and forth. It's nowhere near that simple, but we'd like to know what it's doing in our video drivers when it's never been needed before. nVIDIA Wireless Controller requires you have, you guessed it, a nVIDIA Wireless Controller. ShadowPlay is a way to capture and record gameplay.
