    Have hit the buffers financially... need to replace two very well used iphones (4 & 6s)(batteries and screens fecked).

    Can anyone recommend an android handset for e100 to e200.
    (unlocked - switching both accounts to gomo)
    Would be great to get (if possible):
    1. 64gb or 128gb internal (aside from sd)
    2. dual sim
    3. not a pox camera
    4. something not head wrecking

    Found this on the amazons

    Is it ok?

    Xiaomi are a very big Chinese company with a great range of phones. If the spec of that one suits your needs it's a great phone!

    cheers, what about aftersales support (software updates etc)
    Will it 'just work' like the iphonesez?
    Presume the chinese lads will be snooping... i'm alright with that so long as it works :)

    Just bought the huawei y9s, have it a few days now. Bought for 230 in Asia so presume the amount will be similar in Ireland. Don't think its released here just yet but check it out.

    128gb
    6gb ram
    3 cameras
    48 mega pixel, widely angle etc
    Full screen with pop up camera

    I came from a Samsung and honestly think its superb for the price. Its a little on the large side alright for fitting in the hand so still kinda getting used to it.

    I've the redmi note 7 since August. Got it on German Amazon. Find it better for price and quick delivery too.

    Pros
    Long battery life
    Nice screen
    Quick and smooth phone.
    Decent portrait and landscape photos

    Cons
    Video quality isn't great
    Zoom quality
    Speaker audio isn't rich

    It's priced at the lower end of mid range phones and I really like it.

    Samsung A40 is €100 (€90 + €10 top-up credit) if you port a number to Three.

    Dual SIM, 64GB, 4GB RAM. Locked to Three but can be unlocked for about a tenner.
