Really need help with choosing a new mobile please

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

    The Moto G is an excellent phone and would be ideal for her. Vodafone sell it for £90 on PAYG.

    Rather than PAYG, have you considered a Tesco Mobile contract? You can set up a cap so it never goes more than £2.50 over. They have the Moto G for £10 a month with 250 minutes, 5000 texts and 500MB data. They also have the Moto E (which I understand is also pretty good although it lacks memory if you download many apps) for just £7.50 a month with the same allowances.
