                        Nahoo, 27 Sep 2020From Samsung Galaxy A21S 64GB/4GB and Huawie mate 8 32GB/3GB which is a better phone?Get a p40 lite its similar price to a21s (£170 a21s £189 p40 lite!)
                        The Huawei P40 Lite has
                        40W fast charging
                        64MP Camera
                        Fast Kirin 810 Pro
                        And lots more features better than a21s and mate 8
                        But if you are worried about Google Play Services then get a Huawei P30 lite (£169) or a P20 Pro on amazon renewed/Used (£205)

                        Or you can just get a phone and sim card bundle and get a really good expensive phone and pay it monthly. (P30 Pro £37 with Unlimited data on three)

                        Im sorry if this doesnt help you as i am living in UK and the prices might be different in your country

                                I have been using the Huawei Ascend Mate 8 since 2018 with no battery issues until only now. That notification at 2 % used to take me for a further 5 minutes standby time, now it won't even stay on unplugged.
