£100 approx for an Android. Which one?

koolpc · 22 Mar 2016 at 16:42

I have been looking at 2 recently

Samsung J5
Huawei P8 Lite

These can be had for almost the same price. Not sure which would be the best in real day usage. It must have a decent camera. Looking on Youtube its swings and roundabouts as to which gets the thumbs up!

I ruled out the Moto G 3rd because of price. And i ruled out the Vodafone SU6 because of its big size.

Any help would be great guys. Ta

I got the Letv1 for around the same price £136 I think it was, and it is quite a bit ahead of both of those phones. The Huwaei 8 is closer if anything.

I can't find either of your suggests for £100, but if I were you I would stump up the extra 30 ro 40 and get the Letv1 or the Note3 that everyone is recommending atm.
You won't regret it.

If you explain why you ruled it out we may be able to help further.

Dont like the system they have on the phone.

You haven't mentioned who and what the phone will be used for, we maybe able to advise more then.

I've seen the J5 cheapest sim free at £130 so I'm surprised you've ditched the Moto G 3rd Gen which as I've mentioned in your other post can be had for £149 + Quidco Cashback

Alcatel Pop Star Classic can be had for £69 at Tesco simfree not bad specs for the price.

koolpc · 23 Mar 2016 at 07:34

J5 £119 at CarphoneWarehouse or £99 at Vodafone.

ignore.

If you can live with the 8gb the Samsung J5 can't be beaten at this price .Camera and audio output both very good . Since I got mine last week battery life has been Amazing.Screen on time of over 7 hours sometimes 8 .I do have a black wallpaper set

emu · 23 Mar 2016 at 16:36

Should be getting marshmallow so storage shouldn't be a problem

wijcc · 23 Mar 2016 at 16:36

why is the J5 better than the P8 lite please?

koolpc · 23 Mar 2016 at 16:39

8gb is fine as i dont game on a mobile anyway.

I have read lots of reviews of both and the P8 Lite doesn't have a very good battery apparently for one. I believe the camera on the J5 is much better too which is a must for me.

1.5gb of ram is fine after looking at benchmarks.

robnut · 23 Mar 2016 at 16:52

I had the Huawei P8 Lite and returned it as the EMUI crippled it. I came from a smart ultra 6 and that was superior in every single way.
