Default Upgrading from Zoom H2n to Zoom H5 + condenser mic

Hi,
I have a maton EBG 808TE with a really good internal mic-system. For now Ive had a Zoom H2, but im thinking of upgradring my recording equipment to the Zoom H5.
Then I can record my acoustic guitar and voice with at mix for 3 mics/inputs:
- Guitar with XLR cable connected to the Zoom H5
- Guitar with a condenser mic connected to the Zoom H5
- Voice with the mic from the Zoom H5

Is this a good upgrade and recording equipment? or are there better portable options..?

Sorry about my english..

The Zoom H6 for the extra inputs and color display.

The F series mic preamps are a lot better, but you don't have the built-in mics, of course, so you'd need one more mic for vocals.

Thanks for reply!
I consider Audient iD14+Rode NT1-A instead.

Then I can connect my guitar D.I-input + one vocal mic + one guitar condenser mic.

What do you think about it? Are there better options?
