I've got a Moto G 3rd gen that i'm happy with. Got the Marshmallow upgrade for it Wednesday. About the only downside for me is it can only handle a 32mb memory card.

I've used cubot for a while now and just picked up the x17 from Amazon. Good camera(hdr - whatever that means), battery life is good and its either dual sim or sim and micro sd card.

What Keefmac said, the Wileyfox, had it for a month now after 4 years of apple phones, its ace!

Another WileyFox Swift here. I like it and its more robust than the Archos Diamond it replaces.

It's certified to run 32Gb, but my Moto G (1Gb RAM, 8Gb) runs a 64Gb with no problems as external memory on Lollipop and as external and now internal on Marshmallow. Samsung UHS-1, I'll sell you one for a tenner, I find myself with a couple of spares!

Drop it £50 and look at Microsoft Lumia 640. Unless it has to be Android...

I've been really happy with my Moto G. I also have an iPhone 6 for work, and I don't find the Moto G to be much behind and in some respects, such as battery life it's better.
