Look at used mid-range phones released 2 years ago. 

Eg) Used Google Pixel 4a, Ebay UK

 

Edit: 100GBP is more like budget priced. Mid range right now seems to be 300 to 400 GBP.

Hi, I hope you can help. 

 

I'm basically just looking for smart phone suggestions for an android that costs about £100, that's great for watching videos at 1080p, even more if possible, but 1080p is the target and probably realistic at that budget. 

 

Currently I have an older Huawei P smart phone that's really inconsistent in the resolution it can handle, but mainly if I want a good experience I have to watch most videos at 480p or less. It can run higher but it starts to stutter. The Internet here is just fine, and I'm able to run the videos smoothly at 1080p on the computer, so I'm sure it's the phone. 

 

Do you have any suggestions? 

 

Thank you!

Download the video, problem solved, no new device required.

PC specs:

 

Would like to use Linux, but using Windows 10 because wi-fi shenanigans / Linux wi-fi software issues, specific to my hardware.

 

Intel Xeon quad core, clocked down and peaks at around 0.97Ghz, even though it's set higher

2 GB DDR3 clocked down to 800Mhz and undervolted 2.8v

GPU: GTX 960 (more than enough for games I play)

SSD: Samsung 840 232GB

HDD: 4 old spinners, less than 500GB each, only two or so in use usually.  One dedicated to Linuxes, and the rest for downloads / games.
