Samsung A23 Jimbo, would probably serve you well. Decent camera, mid level type of smartphone without any added bullshit and probably matches several iPhones that are possibly a few generations ahead of it. Oh and these older models of phone do tend to come with more in the box as well {recent Samsung/Google/Apple models come with just the device and charging cable}. I think the A23 is priced at about 150 GBP, so also plenty of change for a Snickers too   Cheers Kev |

I just got a new phone, new to me, got a refurbished deal on a Samsung S23 Ultra for £200 from Giffgaff. Seems to be very good so far with a brilliant camera and 128gb storage and 5g etc.

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

That's a heck of a deal JJ. I can't see anything on the Giff Gaff site that comes close to what you've got. |

It was a sale about 2 weeks ago and being a Giffgaff customer I get priority deals, they come up often but change and sell out quite fast. |

Fair play that was a real bargain what you purchased. The phone that you've got is now coming up as £529 |

Yes mate, it was a flash sale on Giffgaff me and the wife both got one I checked and it was £215 each on a refurb, it just seemed the best deal for the cost at the time. |
