Wrong phone, this thread is about the Swift, you posted a review of the Spark. The Swift is a much better phone.

This will go hot! Lowest ever price I believe. Would buy, but worried about the camera quality (I do use my phone camera as my only camera).

It's a 5" screen vs the Moto's 5.5" screen. It has a slower processor and worse battery life but overall it's a good phone for the price.

The Moto G4 is a good phone, but doesn't have a replaceable battery or compass sensor. No use to me.

similar specs. moto camera is better and moto is fully waterproof. wife has the moto but is annoyed with the limited (8gb) of it. i have a swift and love it. swift is much better value for money.

Received my Swift 9 days ago from the recent £99 Amazon deal. Very happy with it. Heat added. Review ...
Loving this phone.Got it from last time a hukd deal.
Had two updates since I got it. Unlike the big manufacturer who respond to security problems in Android by either taking months to send out an update or as is more common, they do nothing.
For this price I would highly recommend the phone.

Son has this phone. Very good for the money. Pokemon Go worked perfectly (yes, this even has the gyroscope needed to use full camera mode when catching) BUT after an update last week this has got very jerky. Not yet found solution. Hope it will be fixed.

Hoped this would go down in price again, just broken the screen (accidentally!) for the second time on my old Moto G, so excellent timing. :smiley:

I almost got this phone but the user reviews on Amazon aren't all that great.
If you do have a problem with the phone, wileyfox customer service sounds pretty terrible.
I don't want to say it but the whole "made in Britain" stigma isn't inspiring much confidence!

Made in Britain is just a sales gimmick, the phone as far as I know is made in China like most phones are nowadays.
I think they get away with it by saying they're a British company so people expect the products to be made here.

The made in Britain thing is innacurate I suspect, it may be a British company but you can bet that this is made in China, mostly designed in China with Wileyfox specifying some of the specifications. The very best you could hope for was it being assembled in Britain from parts made in China.
edit: In fact they state:
Where are Wileyfox phones made?
Wileyfox phones are engineered in Europe and manufactured in China

If only there was a Swift plus with a better camera!
