Had Nokia G42 for a few months now. Really happy with it. Listen to podcasts all day in work and still have 50% battery left at the end of the day. Well worth the money.
I don't touch Xiaomi anymore ( or it's other brands redmi and poco ) after 2 phones and an android box that all had various bugs that were never fixed i gave up on them and went back to Moto.. With a g82 5g thanks to a recommendation from yourself, I'm very tempted to go for a Nokia next whenever this one gives up the ghost but I'm more than happy with this phone, i had the original moto G then G4 & then had my flirtations with xiamoi.. then had an asus ZenFone 7 which was superb and the best phone id had until the screen cracked and no one could replace it for me, still with the money i made selling it was enough to get me this moto G , keep up the good work thanks
I understand the Problem with Xiaomi Smartphones. I had 2 Models Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 and Poco. Both hat W-Lan Problems , Charging Overheating and so on. Never again. ☹️☹️☹️
My last few photos have also been Xiaomi...good hardware specs for the money but full of annoying bugs... Think I'm going back to Moto or might try Nokia next
hmm, interesting. I’ve been looking to buy a new budget phone and here in Canada, Chinese brand phones are rare. Apple, Samsung and Google dominate the market. You want a Chinese brand, you have to go some independent dealer.
Don't hold your breath the G9 power is truly awful from the dire camera complete with lagging shutter, the overall lagg was horrendous, memory only at 50% keyboard goes blank if you type too fast, a proper proper bad performing phone.
I just bought the motorola G54. I have had Samsung phones, Iphone, Huawei, Nokia and Xiaomi. Motorola phones might not have the best cameras but are fast, reliable, sturdy and above all, work great overall. I am will keep you updated on my purchase.
Yeah, I bought the Motorola G32 for £92. The only fault I could find was the camera. It's okay in good lighting, but pretty abysmal in night mode or low-light conditions. But you do get two excellent stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, a 90 Hz refresh rate for effortless scrolling with no lag, 33 watts fast charging, excellent battery life, and a decent snapdragon processor for reasonable gaming performance and less lag with multiple apps open. It's definitely the best bang for the buck phone I've ever had.
I've had a Realme 8 5G since April. It's a backup phone but it is sluggish at best and painfully slow to launch/switch apps most of the time, despite 2 factory resets. From fingerprint sign-in to usable home screen can take as long as 10 seconds. Hoping for a little Cyber Monday action so I can trade it in.
@@PedroAdelino I think they use dynamic ram on pretty much all their devices, meaning only half of the ram is the actual ram. Also all their screens are IPS, which is how they keep the prices down. Realme is not as good as it used to be. You get way more for your money at Motorola
From today POV the Galaxy A15 seems like a pretty good value, AMOLED display, fair amount of os/security updates, rest of the components are typical mid range hardware, they bumped up the charging rate from 15W on A14 to 25W on A15 (not trying to imply that it's a bad thing, for most users it's actually perfect).
Surprised the galaxy a14 5g is not included. My wife got it a couple of weeks back and the phone is really really good for the price. The only downside is the slow charging. Other than that. It is pretty solid.
@@michaeldendulk9225 got it. I always thought pounds were lower compared to euros. En since it is 200 euros in my country I thought it would be under 200 pounds
Uncle spurt. Can you give me a few options for a Phone under £400. Must have a decent camera setup, 256gb minimum, stock android or as near as damnit. Good fast charging and good software updates for 3+ years. Obviously must have a decent screen and refresh rate. Cheers in advance👍👍
I picked up a G73 over a week ago for £200. I would have been fine spending a little more for a slightly more premium handset but I found that the higher the ladder I go. The more features that I want in an handset start to go missing with the more premium handsets. All my friends have kept telling me that i should have bought a samsung for the software updates but Samsung doesnt do the same spec and feature set of the G73 for the same money. 256GB+8GB for £200?? that is an insane price when an A54 of the same spec is £300-400. the prices of the 128GB version did drop with black friday. Although Im still paying more money for less phone. The G73 is super value for money and other than me missing the notification light and a slightly better camera on my previous handset. The G73 has been great. It ticks all the boxes with a few minor caveats but overall its super solid. Prices really came down for the Edge 30 and 40 handsets but those didnt have a microSD card slot and that feature is really important to me.
Good choice. If one is going Samsung, it should be "S" series, midrange ones just keep stuttering and lagging after a while. Moto has lighter UI so you got more stable system. Cheers
Just grabbed the Moto G54 5G, genuinely impressed after running the Edge 20 for the last couple of years other that the absolute monstrosity of a camera in comparison...
@@MohamedShou quality is good enough, but no wide angle lens and focus is really poor, often I can't get it to focus at all - but I'm comparing to the Moto Edge 20 though which was a higher spec
@@buckybruh9957 2 months in, it's absolutely fine! Compared to the Edge 20 I had before, I can barely tell the difference. I just miss the wide angle camera, and I don't like the focus still, really temperamental. But everything else is smooth as you like, works great and I do game on it a fair bit too with no issues or lagging
For people hunting deals online you can find some pretty good price on the redmi 12 line up. You can find the redmi 12 4g under 150€ pretty often, and sometimes the 12 pro 5g around 200€. It's hard to beat at this price.
Y'all make sure to slap a Gcam which drastically improves your camera quality You can't do much about the performance but atleast u can improve the camera
Pixel 6a now can be found for under 300$, it's a pretty good value, very good processor,even if it overheats little it can play most games well,camera is great for the money, display is very nice except the fact that it's 60HZ, screen size is pretty good too, very compact, charging is quite slow and battery life is just good enough for the day but as a whole package the phone is really worth it.
I have the G22 just on the fact its repairable, and it was £150, Its not the best phone in the world sure, but a lot of value especially considering creating a repairable phone does come at an expense, as a tool its good, for me, i could not daily it, too much bulk, but i do use it for the internet on the bog or something. Whilst over £200, i just got the Moto G84 to play with, as i just feel these cheap phones have got a lot of value for the cash.
Chris. I do quite a lot of painting by numbers and often have to charge the battery up to 3 times a day. Is this normal or acceptable?. My phone is a one plus 8 pro
@TechSpurt Of the phones shown which ones will work on the US T-mobile network. I am having trouble tracking down the 4G and 5G frequencies each phone is capable receiving. An help is appreciated.

Can someone tell me in wich of the brand's photos (Samsung, IPhone, Xiaomi, Motorola) the things portaid look closest to real life especially color, so what the human eye can see.
Trying to sell my current phone (Galaxy A13) For $280 (280 because im including my $30 case with it) So I can buy something within this budget. Once I get the money ill surely rewatch this and decide on what to buy.
Nokia G42 camera is even better than the one on Iphone 15 Pro Max, but you havent seen the 8Gb+8Gb RAM version of Nokia G42 which currently only available in India.
Ive been using redmi note 10 pro for 2 years now its broken and i need to buy new one i want cheap and maybe a bit upgraded my last phone can you guys make suggestions please. i cant decide anything please help me =))
Just picked up redmi note 12 5g in Thailand for 185 .00 pounds cracking wee phone 8g+4g 256gb no way you get a phone like this at the same spec in the UK always smaller spec for more UK

8:44 The Redmi Note 12 4G has a 50MP camera vs 48MP and is powered by a Snapdragon 685 chipset, not the 4 Gen 1 like the Note 12 5G.
And it's unusable, worst phone I've ever owned, never again with Xiaomi, never.
Can you review the nokia G60 5G, like always i ❤ the videos, keep up the good work

I like the Modern Samsung A14 5g look just like the A and S range of 2023.
A14 is listed at 219 quiddos, so over budget for this roundup...
@@michaeldendulk9225 got it. I always thought pounds were lower compared to euros. En since it is 200 euros in my country I thought it would be under 200 pounds

@@shaunbat5097 Depending where you are from. You can get a G73 for £185-190. its an amazing value handset.
Motorola g84 is also a good smartphone, in italy it's €249 and has 12gb of ram and 256gb of storage
That 12gb of RAM is a gamechanger in mid and low range priced phones ❤
Still VERY pleased with my POCO X3 NFC. Bought for £169 2 and half years ago. Sturdy, stable, loud and clear phone
I just purchased a Moto G54 and run it alongside my 4.5 years old Poco X3 NFC. Still a legendary phone.
Surely saved money should go on second hand copies of Razzle?
These budget phones are amazing and personally I’m never gonna buy a flagship phone because…………why would I? 😂
budget and midrangers are improving meanwhile flagship just keeps on getting expensive 😂
Software has matured faster than hardware.
This a perfect budget to look for second hand devices.
Where do you find your anime wallpapers? love them
Motorola G84 is pretty good too around that price
I wish all the phone companies would stop making triple camera layouts on budget phones.

Nokia is no more, HDM dumped the brand. Of all the rest, MIUI is a bug fest, Realme 8 is ancient so only Motorola is slightly worth considering.
