Recommend me a phone under £500

Krazes

Things to consider

I'd like a fingerprint scanner, located further from the back camera...

I'd want decent cameras

64GB storage or over

Good battery life

Good screen for watching movies and a headphone jack to listen to music..

I like the back of phones, something like Jet Black, the glossy back..

 

Any suggestions?

I'm considering the OnePlus 6.

Get the OnePlus 6; it fills all your listed needs and is £40 under your stated budget for base 64GB model.

It doesn't have a 64GB model, but has a microSD card slot: The Asus Zenfone 4 Max. I bought this phone last fall for $200 USD (150 Pounds). The specs are in my signature, but will go into more detail here:

Snapdragon 435

32GB ROM

5000 mAH battery (around 3 days battery life for me)

Has decent rear cameras

fingerprint scanner on the front home button

dual SIM slots and microSD slot

Has headphone jack

is micro USB instead of USB C

 

I personally love this phone, and it was a significant upgrade over my old iPhone.

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I'm using a Moto G5s Plus & loving it. 

Camera isn't the best, but it's not bad either. 

Fingerprint is front bottom bezel, though. And not sure what you think of the back. 

But at $300 it was the closest I could get to flagship feeling without the price.
