I bought a cheap synthetic ultralight bag to go on a walk through the Balkans and Turkey, the OEX Fathom EV200. I have decided that I am going to need a warmer synthetic bag, and it needs to have a larger width for my upper body (I have quite broad shoulders, and I find myself having to leave one zip open so I can sleep with one of my arms outside the sleeping bag), but I still want to take a very hard line on price and weight. I want it to be synthetic, as I tie it to the front of my chest, even in the rain (so it does get wet because it's not in my rucksack), and even if it just got damp from weeks of condensation or shenanigans like falling in a river getting to a laundrette to dry a down sleeping bag would often be very very inconvenient.
My friend is joining me for part of the way in Bosnia, and he may be able to bring a replacement sleeping bag with him if I order it to his house. It is called the Snugpak Softie 3 (Pertex), and has a 5C comfort rating:

Would this be better (eg significantly warmer, with more width for my upper body, and with equal or better build quality) than the Oex Fathom EV200?
