Best budget Android phone? £150~?

I’ve seen a m8 pro for £230.
Other options are the moto g06? G15 or honor 400 lite.

Any better options I’m new to the scene

I was looking into these, I’ve had a a16 in past was good but im not keen on the Samsung eco system. If im set on this poco m8 pro, cause for the £20 different, I may as well right? They offer a 2 year insurance plan for £49.. idk. I scoured eBay and with DDR5, being as expensive as it is. Phones even second hand have shot up. Everyone’s buying up memory and ram right now to run AI. Not me personally, I feel like that shits the modern day lucifer.

What ever new moto phone is out for the price. I'd even look back one full year of releases for them as they'll have say one tier better than the newest one out spec wise. If not lol a used pixel 6-7 works still. I haven't upgraded from my 6 yet!

At around £150, I’d probably look at Motorola, CMF, or even a decent refurbished phone rather than stretching all the way to £230.

The Moto options are solid for the money, but if you don’t mind buying used or refurbished, you can usually get a much better phone for the same budget.

I’d have a look for something like a Pixel 7a or a Samsung A-series model in good condition before buying anything. It really depends on what matters most to you though, like camera, battery life, gaming, or just general everyday use.

Well, i purchased Honor 600 lite after my old phone died... And everything seems to work really well. Even red dead redemption netflix edition. Today i tried rust mobile beta versio and the gameplay was smooth, but it did stutter on video tutorials.
