[SOLVED] need some help buying a phone

[MadaraUchiha]

Hi there!

I'm living in the UK and am looking for a smartphone for around £200. I just want an all around decent phone with a nice camera, battery etc

It seems like the best place to buy a SIMS free phone is somewhere direct like Argos or Currys.

So far I have narrowed it down to

Samsung galaxy A40 (64GB) (Slightly above budget)
Huahwei mate 20 lite (64GB)
Honor 10 lite (64GB)
Huawei P Smart (64GB)
Honor 20 lite (128GB)
Huawei P20 lite (64GB)


I'm a bit confused about the recent news about Huawei and google, but I think these models should be fine?
I need to read into each phone and see what the reviews are saying but they all seem pretty good on the whole

Moto G7 and Samsung Galaxy A40 both are good options.

Get whichever you like more.

Both are dual sim and support 15 W fast charging.

I bought a MotoG7 at Best Buy, unlocked put in 32 Gb extra storage and signed up with Mint at 1/3 the price of other carriers. It really depends on what you feel is important in a phone. I have an electric car and I'm trying to get remote access to the car.
