Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 Android Smartphone for £115 including postage.
No top up required.
Missed out on this when it was £100 via Vodafone, but seemed a decent price to me.
I assume this is locked to Vodafone so unlock code needed for other networks, which seen to be available for £2-3 on EBay.

Got mine when it was £99. Bought unlock code & PU leather case from eBay for £2.99 and £1.99 respectively. Got a FreedomPop SIM which for a one-off payment of £6.99 should give me 200 free minutes per month forever (or until they go bust like OVIVO!). So for just under £111, my mobile needs are sorted for a couple of years!

Code has not expired -W7CHX5BW for 20% any UMI products from Amazon. Bargain. I have made my decision. I'm going to give the UMI a shot withe the security of Amazon.

Silly question - it is obviously not as good as it is not horrendously expensive and you will not be allowed in the private huddle of iPhone users at work / school etc. because you chose to be different.

Quite like mine despite the mess that is android, as long as you don't install apps and services to the SD card lag should be minimal. Shame there's no gyroscope for google cardboard as the screen size and res is well suited. Also while it might look far more premium from a distance, in the hand it feels cheap. That being said, you won't find a better phone running android for under £150, and spec wise puts some £200 handsets to shame. Makes the 3rd gen moto g look the overpriced underspecced phone it is. Camera is pretty decent, its no lumia 1020 but for those like me upgrading from a moto g its a massive improvement. Its also been rock stable, perfprmance excellent and the obly phone ive ever had that really can last a whole day of heavy use. Unlock really easily for about £3.50. Now, if Microsoft could release a phone with this spec and price, they might get a decent slice of market share.

Good question, I assume it is locked to Vodafone. Result if its not but I bought with the assumption I'd also need an unlock code for it.

lovely phone, but mine has a crack on screen now, not even the corner shops are willing to change it.
make sure you don't brake it, as seems too expensive for a disposable phone still.

Don't treat it like a disposable phone then, it'll last longer. :smiley:

i'm on my second now, the first one kept on restarting every time you ever so slightly stressed it. This one is almost the same.
if it wasnt for the software, this phone would be perfect.
im trying to decide if the elephone p8000 would be more reliable.

Mine also kept randomly restarting also lines at the top of the screen. Had to get a refund via the credit card company as Vodafone are a waste of space and did not pick up the faulty phone.
