BEAT THE SMARTPHONE SWINDLE
It’s so easy to get caught up in a bad smartphone deal. You’re in the store, box on the table. “Just sign here” and you’re hooked. And what’s worse is that you can’t easily escape once you’re signature is on the dotted line.
Then there are the other smartphone swindles: contracts that hike in price halfway through; golden handcuffs (although you don’t get the gold); enticing offers that, when you do the proper analysis, aren’t all that enticing. Your best bet boils down to two things: don’t pay any more than
you need for the features and quality you want, and avoid phone contracts wherever possible. In this comprehensive labs, we put 23 phones to the test. With prices starting at £50 for the Vodafone Smart N9 Lite and ending at £1,449 for the 512GB iPhone Xs Max, it’s safe to say there’s plenty of
choice. Read on and find your perfect phone.
