Can't get better value if you want 4G, Decent performance, Has a flash and front camera, not guaranteed on a budget
Uninspired hardware, Some interface lag, We prefer stock Android to Emotion UI
Open Gallery 4G for this price is incredible value. It's not just the SIM only price that we're impressed with either. At £14 a month, 4G is no longer a luxury - in the UK at least. The good battery life, expandable storage and front camera/fla...

Superb performance, Expandable storage, Cat 4 LTE, Good value for money
Uninspiring design, Camera lacks versatility, qHD display resolution may put some off
EE has achieved with the Kestrel exactly what it wanted to. It offers good value for the money, warts and all. The camera isn't great; the display resolution may leave some wanting; and there's nothing special about its design apart from the poorly placed...
