Recombu | Chris Barraclough

The Smart Ultra 6 offers seriously impressive value for money. At this price, the Smart Ultra 6 is a bargain and a half.

Vodafone has a long history of producing its own-brand phones that don't cost much but give a lot, and the Smart Ultra 6 takes this to the next level. With a 5.5 inch 1080p display, 8-core processor, good camera and massive battery, this phone doesn't have any weaknesses. It hugely over-delivers for the price.

Pocket-lint | Andrew Williams

The Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 is a phone of such great value that you'll wish it wasn't only available from Vodafone... If you're looking for an affordable phone with a sharp screen, decent battery life and a camera that, with a bit of effort, can take very good shots do make the Smart Ultra 6 one of the very best low-cost phones around.

Expert Reviews | Katharine Byrne

With so many practical features, the Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 is unbelievably good value for its price. ....with its larger, higher resolution screen and superior camera. It's a real steal on Pay-As-You-Go

Mobile Choice | Sunetra Chakravarti

Vodafone are not new to the smartphone market, they have had several phones and tablets out in the market for some time now. However, they have gotten ZTE to manufacture the Smart Ultra 6 for them this time and packed it full of fabulous features at a budget-busting price point that consumers will find very hard to resist.

PC Advisor | Lewis Painter

The Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 is worth its price tag without a doubt. It's one of the best experiences we've had with a budget smartphone, and nothing about this phone suggests that it's budget apart from its price tag.

Android Authority | Nirave Gondhia

Affordable smartphones usually involve a compromise in some form or another but aside from an uninspiring design, the Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 delivers a premium flagship experience at a fraction of the cost and shows that a good smartphone experience can be affordable for all.

Coolsmartphone | Leigh Geary

If I'm honest the specs of this phone are very decent considering the price-point. It's a quality device which will actually perform and there's a very good screen which will impress.

MobileTechTalk | Matt Walker

We couldn't find fault with the Smart ultra 6. Sure, it looks like a seven-year-old iPhone, but that really is the only flaw we could find with it. The screen is superb, the camera is responsive and takes fantastic photos, and its 4G capability makes internet browsing incredibly fast on Vodafone 4G.

Tested Technology | Chris Bidmead

You'd be hard-pressed, I think, to find a cheaper equivalent. In fact you might reasonably expect to pay twice the price Vodafone is asking for its latest Smart Ultra 6. It's a very good if unexciting large-screen Android phone that seems to be a snip at the buy-out price...

The Gadget Show

Let's face it, for this price, there's not much out there that's whole lot better than what Vodafone's peddling. While it does come with a few budget caveats, there's not a lot that's totally deal breaking about the Smart ultra 6, and if you're after a large phone that can handle much of what you throw at it, it's well worth looking at.

TechRadar | Sean Cameron

With a beautiful screen, great performance and excellent internet capabilities, the Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 is a revelation for the price. Yet, dogged with a poor camera, average battery life and excessive bloatware, it isn't quite a perfect budget hero.

ITProPortal | Ian Barker

Yes there are some minor niggles, but if you want a big screen, 4G connectivity and decent performance there's not currently much else to match the Smart ultra 6 for this money.

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

  • We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).
  • SIM only deals are limited to 30-day and 12-month plans, excluding shorter plans and Pay As You Go rates.
  • For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.
  • Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.
  • Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.
  • Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.
  • Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
  • Providers may increase the cost of your contract by RPI (inflation). However, if prices are increased that then cause a materially detrimental impact, you have the right to exit your contract without penalty. More details available from Ofcom plus comparative information on customer service and complaints handling & their guide on how to complain.
