    If you can go the extra €100, the OnePlus 3 is a fantastic phone for the price. Google it to see the reviews.

    The OnePlus 3 is €399 and out of stock.

    But the OnePlus 2 is in stock and costs €319

    A mate has a Wileyfox Storm and it's a lovely phone and within your budget (out of stock at the moment though by the looks of it)

    Yeah went back on sale yday. 4 week wait on the site but they're known for overestimating.

    I can attest that it is the best android phone when you factor in price. I'm an iPhone lover but my boyfriend has one and it's a beautiful looking thing.

    Only thing about the 5x is that it's about to be updated in October so I'd hold off. Even at the lower price.

    Only £199.95 in Argos UK which makes it quite tempting (especially using Revolut). Might pick one up next time I'm in NI.
