When choosing the day to change your mobile, many things are taken into account, including the price, as is normal. AND There are few better opportunities to save a few euros than buying a smartphone on Black Friday. What started as a day of deals in the United States has turned into a couple of weeks of low prices around the world.
And electronics in Spain is no exception. That is why we wanted to compile what we think are the best options currently to buy a smartphone in Spain with a budget of less than 400 euros. Of course, there are several models for just over 200 euros, because they seem very competent to us for their quality-price ratio.
Pixel 8a
One of the most recommended mid-range phones in recent years is the Pixel 7a. This terminal represented a notable leap with respect to its predecessor, and this year Google has refined its successor with better design and better screen. The Pixel 8a, which cost more than 500 euros at its launch, is currently sold for 399 euros.
This mobile stands out for its camera systemwhich without being the most advanced, does offer impressive quality thanks to the company’s good work in terms of processing. It also highlights its software and update policy, if that’s something we care about.
Google Pixel 8a
If we want something like this but cheaper, we can look at the Pixel 7a, which is currently on sale at 287 euros. It is still very similar, including the good battery and wireless charging, although it is not as powerful as its older brother and has a different design.
Honor 200
Honor continues working to take over the part of the pie that Huawei once had in Spain, which fought with Samsung to be the one that sold the most in our country. For this he has brought high-end terminals of great design, focused on the photographic section.

Vivo’s V family is one of those that best defines good mid-range mobile phones.

The best exponent is the VIVO V40 5G, which has reduced its price by 200 euros can be purchased at 399 euros.

realme GT 6T
A few days ago, the realme GT 7 Pro, the new flagship of the Chinese company, was announced. It is an extremely powerful terminal but with a price much higher than 400 euros. However, one of its predecessors, the realme GT 6T, is below that figure, specifically because 369,99 euros.

LITTLE F6
