While the market is brimming with handsets that are claimed to be camera-centric in this price category, the Nokia 5.3 doesn't offer the megapixels.
More than decent phone for the money. Battery Life seems good, processor keeps up with me, no annoying lags or bugs noticed. I'm not a camera user so can't comment on the photos it takes. Nokia 5.3 Price: € 159.51, £ 139.99
4. Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC
Poco is back with another hot deal. The Poco X3 NFC comes with a few features you might expect of a pricier Android handset, such as decent gaming performance thanks to its Snapdragon G-series processor and a 120Hz screen, with excellent battery life sealing the deal. This is a great option for those on a budget.

5. TCL 10L
One of the budget phones TCL has released, it's nice to see that the TCL 10L looks higher-quality than many other similarly-priced handsets. Its 6.53-inch screen is large for a budget phone, yet the bezels are pretty thin, and the punch-hole housing the selfie lens in the top-left corner is modestly small.
TCL unveiled its 10 series smartphones, featuring the TLC 10 Pro, the TCL 10 5G and the TCL 10L. They're an interesting mix of specs and features (the Pro has an inferior chipset to the non-Pro), with a release scheduled for Q2 of the year (the release of the TCL 10 5G is still unknown) and a price range of €250-€450.
They're also likely to make it to several carriers in North America, Europe, the UK and Australia.
