I agree. Bonkers paying for what is simply an over hyped name. Mine does anything an iPhone can. Just doesn't have a picture of an apple on it.

Look at Xiaomi as well. I have a note5, under £200 for 64gb, dual SIM, Snapdragon processor etc. Good phone, IMO better than the Samsung S8 I have from work.

The 3 mobile SIM only deals are good too.

Xiaomi Redmi 5 - forgot that one. Nice phone. Big battery as well. My Galaxy S5 couldn't make it through a day without a charge. My el cheapo Ulephone Power 2 will do 2 days easy and has a fast charge so a couple of hours charge and good to go. No sign of battery degredation after 12 months either. Yes it is a bit heavier but that's to be expected.

I've had 2 Elephones, a C1 & an S8, both pretty good, the C1 holds charge longer. I'm using a Huawei P Smart atm, all sub £200 & all do everything you could possibly need. :cool:

I'xe Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus , 64gb 8 core and super fast and battery lasts well over a day .. & well under 200 .


only downer is being Chinses any warranty is going to be hard work .


I even got mine with Amazon 2 yrs warranty which in practice is pretty useless .



But its not needed it so far ( nearly a year)

Just had a quick look at the P Smart, yet another to add to the list.
I must admit, after owning several of the Navall things (not meaning to start anything, just a point of view), I thought I would never consider anything from a chinese brand. It looks like they have not only caught up with the big players, but may now be much better (from a value point of view).
Thanks

My other half swears by her iphone but I have no desire to be tied to Apple.
