16Gb Android Phone??

Eadfrith · 20-08-2016, 08:45

I need a new phone, my 1st gen Moto E doesnt work well anymore - only 4GB storage, not enough storage since it got updated to lollipop 5.1 Not enough space to update even stock apps anymore.

and I only have a couple of third party apps installes (ebay)

Any sim free Android phones with 16GB and around the £100 price point you would recommend?

Can't you put an SD card in it?

Yeh I have an SD card in. Any photos etc go onto that as well as any apps that can be moved (not many). This problem started after upgrading it from Android 4.4.4 to 5.1, I guess the new OS version uses hundreds of MB extra room on the phone.

Have you tried clearing the Cache? Works wonders. Go to Settings - Storage - Cached Data and clear it.
