MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Is there anything better than the Wileyfox Swift for under £150? It's for MrsMonkey, she doesn't want anything bigger than 5" so the new Moto G is out.
one plus x?
A little bit more than 150
Aye I looked at the X but tbh I don't think she'll see much benefit from the extra outlay, she's not a heavy user - whatsapp, BBC news and Facebook are about it.
"Old" Moto G (3rd gen), the more powerful one.
I've got a Wileyfox Swift, very happy with it.
I got a Ulefone directly from china, more than 5" and 2 days battery means it weighs a bit more than a 'normal' phone, but it was* ace. They do smaller phones too, the vienna looks nice and promises a decent headphone output.
*dropped the bloody thing through the bottom of a ziplock bag whilst getting ready for a ride, the bag hadn't been sealed on all three sides 🙁
@matt - the 3rd gen Moto G was the other option, but the Swift has a slightly better spec for the money (2gb / 16gb vs 1gb / 8gb is the main difference).
@tinas - do Chinese phones still have issues with banking apps and such, or is that a thing of the past? Also I did exactly the same with my weeks old G3 about a year ago, it survived though.
Have a look a the Vodaphone Smart offerings.
Most are extremely good for the money and can typically be unlocked with a code available on eBay
Bought 2 different versions and both are great.
Without wanting to hijack, which one of this lot has the best camera? By which I mean nicest pictures, not necessarily highest megapixels.
Second hand Sony Zsomething Compact
Moto-g 3rd gen. The one with 2gb-ram 16gb storage. Takes as card as well.
Whatever the latest Moto-g is. New one just come out, slightly over budget but only by a smidge and a dammed fine phone.
