I'm from Spain, and I'm looking for a very cheap smartphone (€100-€150), but one that's really usable when it lasts a year since I bought a €100 Xiaomi for my father and after a year it's very slow. I like Samsung but they speak badly of the cheaper range. Help please
Okay, I understand. You're looking for a budget-friendly smartphone in the €100-€150 range that offers good performance and longevity, specifically avoiding the slowdown issues you experienced with a previous Xiaomi phone. You'd prefer a Samsung if possible, but are open to other brands known for reliability in that price range.
I'll search for smartphones within your budget that are known for their performance and durability, keeping in mind user reviews and expert opinions about their long-term usability.
Okay, I've reviewed the search results. Based on your preferences for a reliable phone in the €100-€150 range, and your past experience with Xiaomi, here are a couple of options to consider:
Samsung Galaxy A05s: Several versions of this phone appear in the results, generally within your price range. Given your preference for Samsung, this is a good starting point. The search results show multiple options for the Galaxy A05s, with varying RAM/storage configurations.
realme C65: This phone is also in your price range and has good ratings.
Let's take a closer look at these, starting with the Samsung option:
Given your experience with the Xiaomi slowing down, would you prefer a phone with more RAM or storage to potentially avoid that issue? I see some options with 128GB of storage.
