The appropriate thread is set to current affairs for some reason 
But i better start looking for a phone… whats out there under 200 that’s a thumbs up? … i dont care about camera or social media, just something that has decent speed and memory.
Head into one of the money laundering shops inside in town and pick up a refurbished second hand one that you fancy. Battery mightn’t be great. That’s what I do.
Needs to be clean. I cant have a phone that has potentially been bugged by the CIA or or one of my NFL Fantasy enemies.
It’s going to be difficult get you a phone that isn’t made with American, Israeli or Chinese chips.
Best of luck with that one…

@Kyle have a look around on Gomibo; you can use search criteria such as operating system, RAM, price, brand etc. Delivery is quick too

Any problem with banking apps? My redmi started playing up recently as eu introduced tech regulations weren’t implemented by chinese manufacturers… caused havoc with logging into AIB app
None on my phone anyway but I know that I used have a hawei and later models couldn’t get a lot of apps
Oppo far more mainstream brand tho
Mine too,I have to log in about 3 times before I’m accepted.It also doesn’t download the Daft App or the Club force App.But it’s the longest lasting phone I’ve ever had.Nearly 4 years I’ve had it.
