    Looking for some help here. I'm in the market for a budget Android phone with the following criteria:
    Decent camera
    Bright screen, AMOLED preferably but not a must.
    Budget <250 euro
    Suggestions?
    Also, does anyone know of a good bargain phone website

    "cheap Android" and amoled seldom come together i'm afraid! However, you may have heard of the Orange San Francisco/ZTE Blade? This is an amazing phone for the money and whereas they dont anymore i think, the earlier ones definitely came with an amoled screen. You would be able to oick one of them up for well under 250€ i imagine, they're 99£ in England like. Plenty info to trawl through here:

    Alternatively, you could look at the Samsung Galaxy Ace, although, seeing as theres no amoled in that, it does seem a bit overpriced compared to the San Francisco. Then again, almost everything does!

    In another case, you could look for a used Galaxy S, you may need to stretch your budget another bit, but it is a great handset
