Best current budget smartphone?

BigDebtBoy

So I have had the moto G 4g for a while and its decent enough but battery seems to be running low quickly, and its generally laggy and slow most of the time for some reason

Just wondering what are the best out there at moment, has something took over from the moto G?

What do you consider budget ?

The moto G 4G is on amazon for £105, is that over your budget ?

I have had a Moto e 2nd generation for nearly a year now. It has a battery saver option which comes in handy. However it did totally freeze once and had to go back to the manufacturer for repair. It also does not have a flash for the camera, which is a feature I miss as I find it helpful to double as a torch.

Isn't the E a downgrade on the Moto G ?

My battery won't charge on AC anymore now only via usb

I like the Wileyfox Swift, but I'm not a phone geek and can't compare to the Moto.

Vodafone smart ultra 6, about £115 currently and a couple of quid to unlock (via ebay)

Should mention I don't want anything bigger size wise than the moto G

The Moto E is a downgrade if you've been using the Moto G but its better than the original Moto E.

If you don't want the slightly bigger screen (5.5") of the Vodafone Smart Ultra, you are probably best to get the very latest Moto G. Or consider the Wileyfox Swift or Sony Xperia M4 Aqua instead. The Vodafone Smart Prime has a 5" screen but I've seen reviews that state it fell slightly behind the Moto E in benchmark tests, it is more of competitor to the Moto E than the Moto G though.
