Recently launched Wileyfox Swift 4G Dual SIM unlocked Smartphone, usually £129.99, runs CyanogenOS, a privacy oriented version of Android, related to the well known CyanogenMod firmware.
Phone is unlocked so works with any network, can take two micro-sims and a memory card simultaneously. Battery is easily swappable (a nice feature these days).
Was the same price last week for one day, Wileyfox's 'Grey Thursday'! Guess they sold a bucket load then so are having another go.
Only downside is that there aren't too many cases and covers available yet, but you can get Orzly branded tempered glass screen protectors from Amazon/ebay.

This really is no better than the Andriod phones you can get from China. In fact it is just a generic rebranded phone from China just with advertising stating how British it is!

No, there was a duplicate post one minute after I posted this, which was within five minutes of the price cut. HTH.

This or the MotoG 4G 3rd Gen / 8GB?
I don't understand what Android this? KitKat? Lollipop or some hybrid?

My own experience is that the 8GB of the 1GB/8GB Moto G is too mean for storage space (with not much left after Android's share), so a better comparison would be with the 2GB/16GB Moto G, the same as this Wileyfox, but at a much higher price compared to today's Wileyfox deal. HTH.

MotoG all day battery is a usually clincher for me but don't know enough about the Swift

Trust in this build quality than UT6. Ordered with £10 off for prime now bring it to £90 and get it tomorrow morning. Cannot expected any more:).
