XIAOMI POCO C65 Black-Smartphone 8+256G-MediaTek Helio G85 processor,Smooth 6.744”90Hz display,18W fast charging(UK Version+2 Years Warranty)

I bought this as personal backup for my Galaxy Z Flip6 - and I am very pleasantly surprised! At just £76 (and in 5 interest-free monthly installments) for a smartphone, this is a bit of a bargain! I purchased the 8/256GB model and it has greatly exceeded my expectations. Like most current smartphones, you don't get a power adapter - just a charging cable and a SIM ejector pin. Nor do you get a case or a screen protector (which I purchased separately at reasonable prices on Amazon). Unusually these days, you do get a 2.5mm earphone socket. The device has Android 14 installed and I believe Android 15 will be made available soon. Set up is similar to most other Android mobiles. There are a host of Apps already installed although many are bloatware (but easily removed). The phone downloaded a number of device and App updates. I already had a (free) Xiaomi account but if you don't, you will probably have to sign up for one (for the Xiaomi Apps and device updates). Google Play Store updates the majority of the Apps Surprisingly, the SIM tray can take 2 SIMs AND a TF card. I added a 128GB memory card and set it as the default location for media files. I use a single SIM and 4G connectivity is good for calls, messages and data (this mobile is not 5G capable). WiFi works fine without issues. I am not a game player so my usage is primarily Email, WhatsApp and browsing etc etc. Although this mobile is noticeably slower than my Samsung, it's certainly not an issue for me. Indeed, I sometimes use PLEX to access films and music on our NAS. Again, all works fine. The front and rear cameras are more than adequate though images can be rather grainy in poor light. The 6.8" display is also surprisingly good and the touch screen works well. Likewise, the fingerprint sensor and face-recognition features are easy to set up and use. Battery life is excellent (2-3 days normal use), with a full charge taking 2-3 hours. Although the case is plastic, the device seems to be well make and adequately robust. The phone is comfortable to hold feels good in the hand. I set up my own wallpapers and disabled the Carousel option (most annoying). Likewise I disabled the diabolical Google Discovery feature and associated LHS swipe on the homepage. Finally, I opted for FileManager+ (from ASUS) which gives seamless local network family NAS access and is so much better than the Xiaomi and Google alternatives. So, it's a case of horses for courses. This mobile does everything I ask of it and I am rather chuffed 😀 Remember the low price before setting your expectations. IMHO you won't find a better mobile in its price range..... 💰

Perfect in every single way if looking for a cheap and completed phone! It is huge, have a great quality, resistant, good materials, easy to use (standard android experience enhanced by HyperOS), looking very cute with the cover and screen protector and could not be happier with the simmetric corners...except the big chin below which fits the design and honestly good for how much I paid it. Battery life is a monster, 11 out of 10. Amazing functionality but be aware of 3 things: there is no support to eSIM, they ensure 2 more OS updates but never really made it clear the first update would come delayed in 2024-2025, and after the first big update with HyperOS the phone slowed down. The processor overall handles all very good, true, but this is not a premium quality phone. It does a very good job, it is extremely good but if you are looking for a primary reactive phone be aware this is not the best idea, unleass you want to spend very low money. I use it from months as a media device, game and other general work stuff as a second phone and for me this is the greatest of the greatest. Also worth to say that this is the same phone as the Redmi 14C, just rebranded POCO. Not sure why but this should be cheaper. Got the 256gb one and it flies. Leave the 128gb, it's inevitable to use 256gb nowadays.

The Xiaomi phone seems to be a really good build for the price. I bought the model Poco C65. The phone looks great and is quite a lite weight for the size. The Camera quality is OK but for the price it's not going to be incredible. The setup was easy and screen size isn't to bad. Durability seems good. But the phone is primarily a plastic design which means it you drop it, Its likely to get easily damaged or chipped. Screen seems tough though. The one thing I don't like about this phone is it's bonbarded with Advertisements and store recommendation even if you don't want that stuff. It would be great if you could remove it. Other then that the phone seems to function well. It's mainly the bloat ware that I don't like.

I’ve been using the POCO C75 4G for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed! The Golden finish looks absolutely stunning — it feels much more premium than its price tag suggests. The 6.88-inch display is bright, colourful, and perfect for watching videos or gaming. Performance-wise, the octa-core processor with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage makes everything run super smooth — no lag, even when multitasking or switching between heavy apps. Battery life is another huge plus: the 5160mAh battery easily lasts me a full day and more with regular use, and it charges quickly too. The 50MP AI camera takes surprisingly sharp and detailed photos, even in low light. Portraits come out clean, and AI enhancements actually make a difference without overdoing it. Overall, this phone offers flagship-level performance at a budget price. Reliable, stylish, and packed with useful features — it’s a solid choice for anyone looking for a dependable smartphone with great specs and a premium look. Highly recommended! 💯📱

Excellent cheap smart phone. Brilliant to keep as a back up, a cheap phone for an elderly person or child. The phone is large and is functional. It will do most things without a problem and has a decent battery. The volume sounds like ringtones and messages are loud, which is ideal for the elderly or those who are hard of hearing. It will do the day to day tasks (email, social media, streaming media, games, listening to music, etc) it handles it all very well. A big bonus for music lovers is, it has a 3.5mm jack input to plug in wired headphones. For the price tag, its very to criticise. Its not going to set the world on fire but for a budget, day to day smart phone or back up phone, its all you need.

Estoy encantada con este móvil. Rápido y tiene muy buen rendimiento y la batería aguanta perfectamente durante muchas horas, además viene con un cargador que es muy rápido y carga la batería en poco tiempo
