Alcatel Idol 4 Smartphone, Android, 5.2", 4G, SIM Free, 16GB + 2 YEAR Guarantee.
Been looking at lower end mobile for a while and this one of the best deals I've found. Good reviews. You get ear phones, case, cover, plus VR headset.
Battery capacity looks to be a bit low, but it weighs only 135g!

Seems ok. Reviews are nothing special, but at least it's a good UK based supplier.
Just Wondering

Any Idea if this model is dual sim?

It's not dual sim...does have NFC. I've had this phone for a couple of months now and it's decent. Battery is pretty poor though, especially if you use mobile internet. Does a good job in general without 'wowing'. Some oddly placed buttons but good enough at the price point. Speakers are very good and camera usable.

Sure it'll have a more polished camera and gorilla glass but is is really worth lots more for stb that has same amount of ram similar battwry better audio

Of course it does what I was saying was this is basically the same specs and so much cheaper yet doesn't get much heat.

Had this phone a few months, excellent value for money, would definitely recommend. Good, strong build. Great speakers. Fast charge. Not too much bloatware. Battery lasts all day. Looks good. VR headset used once. Camera ok
