WileyFox Swift 2: A new champ of the 'for around £150' market
Smartphone 'for the brave' with a foxy look

The Swift 2+ camera suffered a little in strongly contrasting light, without HDR mode turned on, but that's pretty par for the course. Then again, PDAF isn't very common at this price point – the phone focussed quickly and was ready for the next shot almost instantly.
The £159 model gets you 16GB of storage, 2GB of RAM and a 13MP front-shooter. The £189 "Plus" variant buys you a larger display, 32GB of internal storage, and a 16MP main camera. That's extremely competitive.
Many readers were tempted to buy the first WileyFox models, and these new ones should shift like hot-cakes. ®
*The target launch price was £149 but the exchange rate fall added a tenner. Fair enough: Apple and Microsoft's price rises have been 20 per cent or more.
