    Greetings fellow boardsies.
    I am completely allergic and very backwards when it comes to technology so apologies in advance.
    I am a Tesco prepay customer with a Huawei smartphone .
    I use my phone primarily for email, SMS, What's App, bit of browsing.
    I now want to get a phone with an excellent camera because I have some important events coming up.
    I'm willing to try iphone and my budget at the very maximum would be between €200 and €250.
    Bear in mind unlocking issues for my Tesco SIM.
    I would really appreciate some signposting.
    Thanks in advance.
    PM.

    To thine own self be true

    You won't get that combination outside of chinese brands and I wouldnt recommend them for novice(luddite) users. You'll get an OK camera, but you wont get an excellent one.

    There's an ebay seller with them listed as Ireland but stock is NOT here so expect VAT to be applied, just FYI.
