    Looking for another smartphone recommendation

    Number 2 daughter is now looking for a smartphone. Cheap but reasonably rugged, takes SD cards, has a removable battery and easy to keep updated. We're looking at around €150 or less (in France).

    Currently she's considering the Wileyfox Swift or Spark, maybe a Moto G, though I've heard the Lenovos are meant to be good. Alternatively there are some cheap Chinese no-names available for less, like the Leagoo Z5 or Bluboo Picasso. Any opinions?

    xperia e5 or xperia m5, if anything else fails, you can grab a xperia m4 for €60 on ebay, but the m4 will probably on have 8GB of space 2 or 3 can be used, the best option would be a xperia z3 for €140 on ebay

    I prefer to buy a Samsung Galaxy S8 as it brings a raft of cutting edge new ideas and features designed to help you live life the way you want to live it.

    I would prefer to buy a Samsung Galaxy Series as it has lots of varieties which makes it user friendly.

    try Asus. The IC is worth depending.

    haven't heard of bursting or overheating issues

    slight lags aren't to be complained if you are under 200 bucks.

    still you will find a handy 3 gb ram with good battery backup, storage and a quality camera at this range.

    sony comes with lesser ram/rom

    samsung carries lesser battery

    moto and lenovo too are good options.

    however I recommend asus
