The last good phone Vodafone ever made. Since then it's all gone downhill.

Got this phone for free when a family member upgraded to a new phone, and I was really surprised by it's performance and screen quality.
I'm using it as a secondary device without sim for watching videos and playing games, and performance was been better than I imagined, the screen is also pretty good for a budget phone, when I got it I was expecting a 720p screen but was surprised when I discovered it was 1080p and that it had pretty good quality. Battery life is also pretty decent.
The only thing I can complain about, it's the camera quality it's pretty bad, but this is comparing it to my main phone that is a lot more expensive, still I got this for free so I can't complain too much about the camera quality.
If you find this phone for 60€ or less it's worth getting one, and if someone is offering one of these for free it's also worth it.

Honestly I can't find anything that beats it for under £100 the high screen resolution, NFC, and the size is just right in the hand and pocket.
Decent octal core chip, I'm on my third one.
I have two working, one with a watermarked screen from water damage.
The battery lasts a day at least under moderate usage.

Great product at this price point, better bundled with a SIM only deal IMO.
After 12 months it is showing some lag when skipping around apps. Some very evident none response from lower right of the keyboard when swipe texting.
Good clear voice control and decent in call speaker but painfully crass sounding when watching video, which stream effortlessly. Screen remains decent at this price bracket. Again after 12 months it is starting to drain the battery quite quickly but does well with rapid charges.
Any other handsets with this spec for £100 (or less now) let me know because i cant find one??

Great phone but it's a bummer I can't seem to get the merge call (conference call) to work. Waste of time having it as an option to begin with. Other than that I love everything else

An absolutely amazing phone, and still in mint condition despite having dropped it three times, once at Munich airport on a hard floor.
Good memory, great hardware, ample storage, best phone I've owned as it's powerful, but without killing the battery in short time, or getting so hot it burns.
The only issue I have is that Vodafone have left it on Android 8.1, we should expect at least one update to either version 9 or even 10 for such a capable phone, not just being left behind. I suspect it sold so well in such a short time that it was available that Vodafone panicked and dropped it. Which might explain why they went from an octacore phone with such great specs, 1080p, and USB C, to two phones with quad cores, 720p, and micro USB connections. A shame they took a step back for a similar cost even if their 'new' phones have Android 9.

This phone is great.
It has a bigger screen yet feels comfortable and I can use it one handed.
The battery lasts a full day, at least up to 9pm for me, often later.
The phone has enough storage and the screen resolution is very good making it easy to use in sunlight and for reading books.
It has NFC for payments.
The only thing it lacks for me is waterproofing.
Unlocking it was easy and there was little Voda bloatware.

I have this phone, and I'm very satisfied with it. For under £100 it's pretty nice, if you can find it. (Vodafone's own site is probably the best bet.) It's silly to compare it directly with phones costing two or three times as much, as they're simply in different markets. As an all-round package that gets through a day with a decent amount of battery to spare, charges reasonably fast, is completely fine for casual and moderate games, has a really nice screen (again, for the price) and is pretty responsive, I think I made a decent choice. Even has a magnetometer, which the Moto G6 (at least the UK model) apparently doesn't. Couldn't do without that for using Google Maps on foot. I'm happy with mine.
