9de5q7tsr8u2im

I have looked across 3, vodafone but to no avail am i satisfied with the prices at all, in comparison to ebay!

I'm looking for a phone just for:
Social Networking, battery efficient and decent speed (no lag)

I don't have much knowledge but i came across this and price seems great!

Can anyone else recommend me any other phones with what i'm looking for as my options are limited!
Thank you

Meteor have the Huawei Y3 for €59.99. It has a similar spec to the phone you have referenced but includes the vital 900MHz 3G band used in Europe. Neither of these phones have 4G, and the amount of RAM is a bit meagre at 512kB. I would strongly recommend you stretch another €20 for the 4G capable Huawei Y5 - which is a very good phone for the price.

Phones sourced directly from China are known to have crazy amounts of Bloatware on them, which can certainly degrade performance with such a low amount of RAM. 900MHz is vital for indoor coverage outside of urban areas in Ireland, and the lack of this is a serious disadvantage.

For €60 you'll either get something laggy on 5.1 or 6.0 or a faster handset on something ancient like 3.2 (gingerbread). €100 is the point where you start getting devices actually worth buying at all, before that just get an old nokia IMO.

Have a look here to compare specs etc (I've set to <€80, but you can change that):

Just pick what matters to you from the left; screen size, camera etc and it will give you results including where you can buy them online.
