phone recommendation - decent camera, screen and easy to use?
Hi folks
I'm looking for a new phone for a relative and while its been suggested a second hand Iphone might be good I'd say it was serious overkill as its going to be used for taking and sending/receiving the odd picture, some texting and the odd call. I'm seriously out of touch with mobiles (I've got a SE W995 but that was because it was offered at renewal time rather than anything else) and hence the request for some recommendations
It needs a decent camera, a good size screen for viewing pictures and be easy to use. Not looking to spend more than about £100 and ideally either payg or handset only.
Can anyone help with recommendations?
Thanks

Mobiles.co.uk do the LG Viewty Snap for £79.90 plus £10 top-up on three networks.
There are so many phones out there, though, that it's difficult to make a definitive recommendation without zoning in more on exactly what it is you want from the phone. Some people would say that a "decent" camera is 8mp or more but others would be happy with 5mp.If I've helped you please show your appreciation by using the "Thanks" button

Thanks for that. The sheer amount of different makes and models is whats causing me a problem. I spent most of last night trying to figure out whats good and what isn't. I'm guessing a 5mp camera would be more than good enough. As for the rest of the features its really as I said in the first post, a decent screen and easy to use are the main requirements. It will spend most of its life turned off in a handbag........0
