- vetinari 8y agoI've had the original ZTE Blade when it was a new thing and Orange was selling it for 100 GBP. Best phone purchase I ever did.
- yorwba 8y agoDepends on how cheap you go. "Disposable" phones aren't going to be comfortable to use, but you can get much better value for your money with a Chinese phone that failed on the international market and is massively discounted one year after launch. My current phone cost 1/6 of the new Pixel but has more than 1/6 of the hardware. My only hard requirement was support for LineageOS 15.1, which is already somewhat of a quality filter because no volunteer is going to support a phone that's too shitty to use.
- bufferoverflow 8y agoYou need to look again. I use Nubia M2, it's fast, the battery is great, the screen is OLED, 64GB space, and it's crazy cheap. The downsides are - the camera is garbage, and Android is 6. Google maps opens and is ready to use in 2-3 seconds.
