My youngest broke her phone last week and we thought, she just uses it for a few little games and TikTok etc, we'll get her one of those cheap knock off phones to tide her over. Paid £45 for one on Facebook Marketplace.

Money down the drain. Absolutely abysmal... Painfully slow... Apps just flat out crashed every few minutes. Shocking.

Straight back on FB marketplace and got her a 2nd hand Galaxy S21 for just over £100 - expected it to be a bit bashed but it's in near-perfect condition.

Lesson learned I suppose.

The cheap one is now the new white noise machine for her bedroom .
