Smartphone for under £200?

Looking for smartphone suggestions under £200?

I'll use it heavily for web browsing and watching youtube, so my priorities are a good screen, speaker, battery life and charge time. Not concerned about 5G here.

Black Friday is coming up soon so maybe there'll be some deals too.

Have a look at the Poco line of phones, one of my friends has them and say they are great value for money.

I got a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 pro for £134 a few weeks ago and it seems really good for the price. Look out for deals on HotUKDeals or on Xiaomi's website.

Thanks I'll look into Poco.

Is Samsung or Huawei good in that price range? Or other recommendations, could be an older model too?

@Helios1234 My last phone was a Redmi Note 10 Pro but I wasn't impressed with the display or speaker.

I bought a Poco F2 Pro 2 years ago for £300, still going strong.

I'd go for a Poco F3. Charges very quickly, battery has been great on mine and it's nice and snappy. Hits most of your requirements.

Currently on a Poco X3 Pro and I love it, if I was buying right now I'd pick up the X4.

Gah would have grabbed one of those for the kid, how often do they do those deals? In no rush so can wait until black Friday.

Set up an alert on HotUKDeals, they're pretty frequent tbh.

I've had one of these for a few months, camera is nothing to write home about, but other than that it's great.

I paid £159 as if you've never used the mi store app before you got a £30 off voucher
