Which mobile phone would you recommend - for a beginner?

Possibly the many opportunities the market offers a difficult question. Therefore, some criteria that "my new phone" should meet. Here we go.:

The price should be around 100.- Euro.

Card, I already have a contract. So be "unlocked".

It should / must have Near Field Communiction (NFC). Pay by mobile phone in supermarkets etc.

Easy to use

Possibility of memory expansion

Not too small.

That's it. The BRAND is actually irrelevant. Also the operating system. I hardly go to the internet. Possibly. Every now and then take a picture and upload.

I was already recommended this:

HUAWEI Y 5 (2019) 16GB Black Dual SIM (is it possible to buy one, update, etc. What was in the media)

You will never get a cell phone with NFC for 100 euro… And if you had informed yourself for a short while, you would know that HUAWEI Y 5 (2019) 16GB Black Dual Sim has no NFC…

The Huawei Y5 2019 has no NFC. For 100 euro, you usually do not get an NFC enabled smartphone.

You have to spend a little more.

MMARVINN, I was in a… Market 2 days ago, and have the data sheet from the above phone available. It has NFC. At least it says so in the data sheet of Huawei.

And the above model costs 114.- € …

Original data sheet… Media Markt… Just copied. The link comes immediately…

You can connect the device by means of the connections 1x 3.5 mm jack and 1x Micro-USB and so the full functionality even better. Bluetooth is also supported, allowing you to wirelessly connect the device to a jukebox, for example. Whether at home, in the hotel or in the café - everywhere you can go online with your device via the WLAN and do not always have to rely on mobile data traffic. With the NFC data transmission standard, you can wirelessly send small amounts of data to other phones in the immediate vicinity.

Here the original text of the description above model… The link is coming soon…

Thanks for the first time… But the named model has NFC… So at least Me… -Markt writes it in the data sheet. That was also given to me.

I only need this NFC to pay at checkout in the supermarket via Paypal or another account.

Whether the "transferable amount of data" is sufficient? Good question

This is a mistake, see official Huawei page: https://consumer.huawei.com/...019/specs/

For around 150 euro there's the Motorola One, this also has Android One which guarantees long updates. In addition, it is also a good smartphone overall, with NFC.

Even on the Huawei side, it has no NFC… https://consumer.huawei.com/...019/specs/

en

DarkAmy, but on the M-market side it says that it has NFC…

en

Thank you MMARVINN, then it is probably better to refrain from the Huawei, because of the updates. I'm a layman in the field, may I ask you if you can just make purchases with a NFC enabled mobile phone + Paypal account in stores that offer it. Without a corresponding EC or other card? I read something about Google Pay… And other Chinese villages for me. But find no answer.

Bu

Gladly, to my knowledge, PayPal also accesses a card.

Here are all questions about the issue clarified: https://www.paypal.com/...google-pay

I think the manufacturer side is more trustworthy than Media Markt
