Looking for an android phone for under £150. Recommendations?

Have an iPhone as my main phone, but need an android as back up for Netflix, YouTube, social media. Looking for a good to great screen, but has to have a powerful battery life.

Was looking at the xiaomi phones, but security concerns made me back out of buying their redmi 12.

Any recommendations?

    Yes, but battery life isn’t very good. Ideally I’d like to use the android for videos (Netflix, YouTube, social media, footy) and then use my iPhone for text, email, calls. Android screen quality to 10x better than Apple XR I have as well

    I like Doogee phones, am on my second one from them. Search the brand name on Amazon and/or eBay.

    The OPPO Find X3 Neo is a great buy and can be had for around £160 at times from Giffgaff (thanks to MrSwitch - dependent on ebay discount codes). Got my partner one from Amazon Warehouse recently at around the same price (30% discount promo).

    Snapdragon 865 5G, 12GB RAM, 256GB, 6.55" AMOLED, camera has optical image stabilisation.

    4500mAh battery perhaps isn't the best but he hasn't moaned about battery life and seems to get on fine with it.

    Also, some listings say the Neo has "128GB" but OPPO didn't release a 128GB version in the UK - it'll be 256GB storage.
