What To Buy

0gac3yjefb5sv7 · 2016-10-30 21:47:45

I was thinking of getting a new phone, the one plus 3 for 400 but I'm looking to see if there is anything else available for that budget. Does have to be a phone, can be any electronic or gadget!?

Are you just looking to get rid of €400?

I'll take it if it's burning a hole in your pocket!

40,000 'penny' sweets, if you can find a shop from the 1980s.

If budget is a factor just get an older flagship phone secondhand. The specs of phones have seriously plateaued in the last few years since they started throwing them out every year. A relatively 'old' phone (as in a version or two behind) will easily perform your core functions of phone, browsing etc.
