Vodafone deal offers ‘no-nonsense’ cheap Samsung rival phone for £14p/m & £0 upfront
HUNTING for a new phone on a budget? I've spotted a fantastic deal that won't cost you a ton each month.
Mobiles.co.uk is offering the Honor X6a with 50GB of data for just £14 a month, and better yet, it won't cost you a thing upfront.

As many of us know, there are two major operating systems for smartphones: Android and iOS, which is why we get the terms Team Android and Team Apple.
Put simply, as long as it's not an iPhone, it's more than likely going to be an Android.
Android has two huge names when it comes to affordable alternatives, and that's Samsung and Google.

However, recently, I've noticed some great deals on a wider variety of devices, meaning you get even more choices regardless of budget.
In fact, last week, I spotted the Motorola Edge50 Pro with a whopping 100GB of data for just £9 upfront and £23.99p/m. You even get a free pair of earbuds.
It's not the first time Honor has attempted to dethrone the likes of Samsung, either.
Last week Senior Tech Writer Jamie Harris covered the launch of the Honor 200 Lite, seemingly a dark horse in the affordable devices department.

I know I struggle to eat through my 100GB data allowance each month, so it's safe to say that 50GB is ample for streaming, gaming, and social needs.
Being cost-conscious does not mean you're picking up a flimsy device, as the 90hz 6.56-inch promises an immersive visual experience for all uses, including work, if that floats your boat.
The camera system is equally as impressive as the 50MP main, 2MP macro and 2MP micro cameras means anything you capture from gigs and festivals right down to the creepy-crawley that caught your attention will be crystal clear.
When it comes to charging, the X6a sports a huge 5,200mAh battery.
For anyone not familiar with technical jargon, that means you should get up to 37 hours of calls or around 26 hours of music for every full charge.
It's worth keeping in mind that while it's got a lot of high end tech, the cheaper price tag does mean that it's going to be lacking a few frills and features that tech companies cram into flagship devices.
If you you've already got a contract sorted, you can pick up the SIM-free , as it's currently on sale for 27% less.
One shopper on the Amazon site writes: 'If, like me, you want a no-nonsense phone that is easy to use, this is an ideal choice.'
