Sorry, I meant generally, not in relation to this deal though, I agree, but then the Huawei is not all that.

What new phone is better for £100?

That isn't the point.

If you are thinking about buying the Huawei, read these:

Huawei seems to have a known problem, see: http://androidforums.com/huawei-ascend-g300/578926-huawei-ascend-g300-un-requested-wipe.html

That's a little misleading. The forum you link to deals with rooting android phones. Will the op be rooting their phone?

I recently switched from an iPhone 4s to a Huawei Ascend G300. I've had it about a month now and I am very impressed. It compares well to the iphone, does pretty much everything that the iphone did and does it well. I can't fault it. For £100 it is a genuine bargain. I got mine unlocked via eBay for £4.95 and have a GiffGaff sim in it. £10 a month gets me 250 minute, unlimited texts and unlimited data. You really can't go wrong.

The phone is well built, feels good to use and I am very happy with mine.

The display visibility is awful when outside.

Is that your experience also?

Turn the brightness up.

You can (potentially) get this superb phone for an amazing £64 net. OK, a bit of loop jumping but come on. PS It's not from Very (although same parent company) Full details here:
