However, he uses the camera a lot so I would want a card slot, and he has a couple of satellite and such programs which can be bandwidth heavy, so I guess it makes sense to look for something with LTE (at least band 4). Oh, this will be on T Mobile, btw.

So, what is essentially the cheapest 5.5" out there? I have been looking at the Oppo N3, though I am bot a huge fan of the camera design.
Is crowding on the screen or font size? The only reason I'm asking is the font doesn't always increase with a bigger screen. I'm looking at my GS4 now next to a Moto G and the font is the same. However, the Samsung lets me use a much larger font.

Here's list of phones with a 5.4'' display and larger that have been sold by T-Mobile. http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/fin...&dpr=r&dpv=5.4
