Hi all,
I'm looking to buy my daughter a new mobile for Christmas. She will be 9 in January and currently has a Samsung Galaxy Y. It's a great little phone but slow and no memory. I'd like to stay with Android as that's what shes used to. My budget is about £100. She will be using it for usual texting, whats app, twitter and will want to put a bit of music and maybe couple of apps on it. It will be on Pay as You Go so no specifics with amounts of calls/texts/data etc. I have been looking at the following phones, please can anyone advise if I'm looking down the right route......Vodafone smart 4 power and smart 4 turbo, Moto G and Samsung Galaxy s3 mini.
All help will be much appriciated
Thank You
Michelle

Any smart phone may be better on a contract, due to the costs of data use, however you really want to use a capped contract, so your daughter cannot run up a large bill.
Consider looking at TescoMobile who will let you cap the contract to your daughter cannot overspend.0
