3) Xiaomi Mi A2

The first Xiaomi model surprised us all, but this Xiaomi Mi A2 has the right and necessary to become one of the mid-range phones easier to recommend.

A smartphone committed with Android One, so we have a clean experience with all Google services. We have models that range from 32GB to 128GB, but our recommendation is 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. A medium term that fits very well with the other features. The battery is somewhat right with 3,000 mAh. And it has no 3.5mm jack or NFC. But they are details that we soon forget when we see their screen, the powerful Snapdragon 660 processor and its sensational double camera of 12 and 20 megapixels. A balanced mobile, reliable software and a price below two hundred pounds.
