Best Budget Phones Under £300 (2022) | Top 10 Reviewed

Reviewing the best budget smartphones for a UK price under £300 here in early 2022. I’ve personally tested these phones and these are the top picks for camera tech, gaming performance, battery life and the everyday experience. From the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro and Poco X4 to the OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G and Samsung Galaxy M32, these handsets offer solid value for your cash.

Xiaomi is still one of the best out there in 2022 for low prices. The Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is hitting the UK soon and impresses in almost every area. Some camera quirks aside (like the lack of 4K video shooting), and that app situation of course, it’s hard to find much to fault. As long as you don’t mind MiUI that is. The Poco X4 Pro is essentially the same phone though, so check pricing before you commit!

The Realme 9 Pro Plus should creep under that budget price soon, else the Realme 9 Pro is quite well specced too. I’d personally get the OnePlus Nord CE 2 instead, as it boasts a slick OLED screen, decent battery life and a reasonably dependable camera too.

Then there’s Motorola’s budget phones if you’re after a stock Android vibe instead. While Samsung’s Galaxy M32 is a good smartphone for this affordable asking price, with OneUI and solid security tools.

    Phones (and EV’s) are getting bigger and bigger when customers want them smaller.

  31. Yuri on July 8, 2022 at 1:00 am

    I bought my Poco F3 (8x256GB) last week for 286$ or 227 British pounds and that is the price it is here today in Asia and this phone should be on the top of your list.

  34. Soulie on July 8, 2022 at 1:03 am

    The thing is, you can get a OnePlus 7 pro for around the same price now and it has way better hardware than all these phones, except maybe the cameras.



  35. Joey Bouknight on July 8, 2022 at 1:04 am

    Great job. Love the content and details.



  36. MrRen on July 8, 2022 at 1:04 am

    My man got sense of humor , I chuckle sometimes seeing his facial expressions.



  38. Dimitrious Drouzious on July 8, 2022 at 1:06 am

    A52 is also great



  39. Chris H. on July 8, 2022 at 1:06 am

    For 300£ (which is 350€) I would check the refurbished market. In Germany you can get an IPhone 11 for that price if you are lucky. And it outperforms every phone on this list + gets updates and support until at least 2025. I’m sure there are refurbished Android Phones as well that would be a bargain. Check it out.



  40. Dickson Diana on July 8, 2022 at 1:06 am

    I love your channel brother. Let me choose on one of this phone



  41. Skedaddle on July 8, 2022 at 1:07 am

  45. The Retron on July 8, 2022 at 1:12 am

    i have heard abt poco x3 pro dying after 1 year



  46. Fright F0000 on July 8, 2022 at 1:14 am

    Actually your opening statement is ironically correct. Diabetics on a standard meal plan tailored by a doctor or other health advisor suggest equivalent foods to crispy creme donuts. These include Diasip a drink supplement which has Tapioca as an ingredient.

    However 300 is not budget



  47. Ilmari Pajola on July 8, 2022 at 1:14 am

    Rusty Bisco wallpapers were really nice!



  48. Bihukabazi on July 8, 2022 at 1:16 am
