Lately, you’ve been asked numerous times about good, attractive, and affordable phones under a budget of 200 euros or less, although we could compile a huge list of recommendations for value for money. We’ll make it easy for you. By comparing, comparing, and taking into account the most interesting factors, we’ve compiled a short list, where you’ll find the three phones that best meet the demands.
Among the key factors we consumers look for most when purchasing a phone, especially if we want an affordable but well-functioning smartphone, is adequate speed, so that social media and other tools don’t bog down when we try to use them. Once we’ve found a processor that performs well, the most important and necessary factor is usually a long-lasting battery that lasts at least a full day, and longer if possible. But we also shouldn’t forget the camera, that faithful companion with which to create unforgettable memories.
All of this is present in the following smartphones, for less than 200 Dollars, and they don’t disappoint.
Motorola Moto G85 5G
The world-renowned company has managed to regain the fame it lost, and in a good way, because it now offers us a good variety of phones in the mid-range, where we find this recommendation. A smartphone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 chip, with which everything flows wonderfully, in addition to being accompanied by 5G technology for easy browsing. Its operating system is updated with Android 15 and will receive Android 16, all without excessive additions, making it an easy-to-use phone.
Other points that lead us to recommend it are its 5,000 mAh battery and 30W charging, as well as its 256GB of storage, which we recommend right now. Its large pOLED display, slim bezels, and 120Hz refresh rate are what really win us over.
POCO X7
Those who understand quality-price mobiles know that the POCO brand, created by Xiaomi, is the one that can best speak for this type of smartphone. Its proposal is not lacking, a POCO X7 that was recently presented and that makes us recommend it, above all, for people looking for brutal power for games, with a very well-equipped MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultra, 8 GB of RAM and a battery that, with 5110 mAh, as well as 45 W fast charging, becomes the perfect host.
We didn’t overlook other key details such as the screen with AMOLED technology and 240 Hz touch response, as well as 50 MP in the main lens or 20 MP on the front to take good selfies. A very complete device, with a striking design and IP68 protection, so it will last a long time. And leaving aside the components and the impressive features, its price is around 200 euros, something few terminals can boast of, giving so much for so little. Xiaomi has shown that everything it makes is synonymous with quality, which is why it really is one of our favorites on the list.
realme 12 Pro
For many, it may be an unknown phone, but it’s currently one of the perfect options for less than €200 in Spain. It’s arguably the perfect balance of features, with a 5,000 mAh battery, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor, and a 50 MP camera powered by the Sony IMX882 sensor. In other words, a winning combination that others can’t hold a candle to.
It is the last one, the one that closes the ranks of our recommendation, and despite everything, it does not lack 5G, 256 GB memory, a curved AMOLED screen, and also a very nice finish.
