Title says it all. Preferrably looking for something that can fit large hands, has a quad-hd display, can play games, and at least decent battery life with a decent camera.

 

Oh, and it has to be GSM unlocked. Any suggestions? Things like $320 or under I can get.

The whole criteria is that it's QHD.

Not "name a smartphone under $300".

You even know it's not QHD and yet you still suggested it... Why?

If you asked "What's the best motorbike I can get for $xxxx", and someone replied "well this car is really cool, but it's not a bike", do you think that would help you make a decision?

Think before you post.

Your suggestion is not helpful at all.

Have a nice day.

You might just find an LG G4 for that price. If not , you will definitely find an LG G3.

 

I found an LG G3 for $260 on Amazon :

Or like this for $240?

Anyway , that's probably your best bet. After looking up for the LG G4 I could only find one for $380-ish. And honestly , the difference between the two are pretty small. My LG G3 is still rock solid and I've had no problems with it. Definitely the best smartphone I've ever had.

Camera is really great , performance is good and battery life is decent.

Motorola Nexus 6 can be found for pretty cheap at a lot of online retailers these days, and it meets all of your criteria.

I can second the LG G3 being worth while.  Not entirely sure about battery life being brilliant, but it does well enough.  A battery bank probably wouldn't hurt.
