Cheapest sub-£25 Smartphone

Wikikenkey

Looking for a basic smartphone for calls, texts and a little internet. Doesn't have to be flash just basic. Any ideas?

I don't think there is a smartphone under £25. Are they existing?

grumbler

The cheapest I know was Alcatel One Touch 983 Android Mobile Phone £29.00 @ Asda instore

Another one for ~£29 from dx.com:
Mini 7100 Android 2.3.5 GSM Bar Phone w/ 3.5" Capacitive Screen, Dual-Band and Wi-Fi - White + Red
$46.60
free shipping


In fact they have 7 similar phones for under $50:

Is this a typo for £250?

or maybe <£25 per month?

Argos do a Alcatel touch for £24.99 but they are locked to T mobile or Orange so depends on what network the OP wants to use it on

Thanks all. £25 was not a typo. Asda had an alcatel 3040 one touch on sale yesterday for £20 and I was wondering if there were any cheaper. Not fussed sb about the provider as phone is going abroad and will be unlocked.

I'm looking for a cheap second hand smart phone, as I have finally given in to technology. Not interested in all singing, all dancing but just want something robust, reliable and which has most of the useful features. What can you recommend and where can I get one quickly? About to go on a month's trip to Australia, which is another driver for buying a smart phone. Budget up to £100. Is that feasible?

TigerTilney - Moto G from Tesco, 8 gb version £99. V popular though so keeps coming in and out of stock.

No 3G..... forget about it. The Alcatel in grumbler's post is close enough to the bottom line.
