Wileyfox Swift

 

The £129 Swift is Britain-based Wileyfox's first ever smartphone. Like the OnePlus 2, Honor 7 and Moto G (2015) it aims to carve a share of the smartphone market by offering features traditionally seen on phones close to twice its price.

Super affordable ; Advanced privacy controls ; Removable battery

So-so battery life ; Heavily skinned Android software ; Inconsistent camera

Wileyfox Swift review

 

A budget handset that's anything but

With a refreshing OS, a comfortable design, great performance, nice screen and decent battery life, the WileyFox Swift is a great budget device – but regardless of the low price, it offers a great overall smartphone experience.

Wileyfox Swift review

 

Wileyfox is a new brand on the smartphone scene and is aiming to win the budget market against the likes of the Moto G and Vodafone Smart Ultra 6. Here's our Wileyfox Swift review.

For a brand-new smartphone maker's first effort, we're impressed with the Wileyfox Swift. It's a stylish little handset which offers essentially the same specs as the Moto G for less money. We love the customisation available in Cyanogen OS but...

Wileyfox Swift review

 

An absolute steal of a smartphone

Amazing value ; High-quality camera sensor and lens ; Good screen

Dodgy Auto brightness setting ; The odd glitchy pause ; Camera software needs improving

This mega-value fox is a great cheap phone, and almost a match for the Moto G

Wileyfox Swift Review: In Depth

 

Full Wileyfox Swift Review: This 5-inch Cyanogen mobile is a nippy, well-specced Moto G rival from an exciting new British manufacturer.

Sharp, bright screen ; Feature-packed, customisable OS ; Hand-friendly design

Occasional lag ; Camera beaten by rivals

The Wileyfox Swift may lag behind close rivals such as the Moto G and Smart Ultra 6 for performance, battery life and all-round camera excellence, but it’s still a well-specced and likeable handset that boasts impressive privacy, security and...

Wileyfox's Swift and Storm combine budget hardware with uncommon software for £129 or £199 (hands-on)

 

Powered by the customisable Cyanogen software, the first handsets from the mobile industry's newest brand will go on sale by October in Europe.

Wileyfox Swift review

  (Rating Hidden)

Wileyfox is a brand that tries to offer decent technology at an affordable price. The Wileyfox Swift is a 5-inch Android mobile – it felt speedy and responsive during our testing, but does the battery life go the distance? We put it through its paces...

Wileyfox Swift review: The British smartphone hoping for a revolution

 

Loaded with features and plucky British attitude, the Wileyfox Swift wants to be the new ruler of affordable Android smartphones

Wileyfox’s ambitions echo those of the hugely successful Chinese startup OnePlus. While OnePlus has aimed to take on the premium flagship market, and Wileyfox is targeting the mid-range and budget bracket, it’s clear that there are more than a couple...

Wileyfox Swift

 

With a sea of solid mid-range smartphones ready for the choosing, finding one that stands out from the crowd can be difficult. Luckily, the Wileyfox Swift makes the search a bit easier.

Tactile back cover with interesting design; Simple and clean OS; Solid all round specs

Processor a little dated; Camera yields mixed results

With the exception of the camera, there is very little fault to find in the Wileyfox Swift. At R3 000, very few devices can provide the same mix of display, build quality and OS, with the strong exception of the Redmi Note 2 . Add to that it's...

Review: Wileyfox Swift – the Moto G killer?

 

Wileyfox recently made the headlines by introducing themselves as the first British company to manufacture and sell smartphones, both in the UK and elsewhere. Their business model is simple, sell[...]

Not many phones have put my mind at such a conflict as this has. I love how this feels, and even more so, the moment you look at the price, you really can’t complain. Then you play with it and find it a tad slow. In many ways, the good look and feel...
