Cheap Android Smartphone?

The_Mumbler

Hello thank you for your support! I have broken my phone and I am looking for a job but no employer will employ me unless I have a phone. I am currently looking for a decent android phone around $250 USD or less. No real specifications except I need to be able to get to my contacts easily, calls are easy to make, and still gets updates. Again thank you for your support, I truly appreciate it.

I think a little more can get you an HTC Desire 816.

I recently bought a moto g (4g) and I'm super happy with it, especially considering the price.

Go for Moto G 4g 201, its simple and good,

You can also also consider Lenovo A6000 if its available in your country, it have an edge over Moto G being a 64bit phone and quite nice camera

Nexus 5 are getting cheap

Google stopped selling the Nexus 5 a few day ago, so finding one will be hard.

Yeah, right guys? Guys?

There is also Blu's smartphones on the market that are also unlocked. Although they don't support 4G/LTE I believe just 3G or lower, it is still good phone I believe. I think you might need to flash the rom because I heard the software optimizing isn't that good.

There is a Samsung Galaxy S3 and S4 Mini Unlocked...

Moto G/E is a good value too.

I'd recommend asus's zenfone as its very effective for the price. In England it was £165 to import it from Singapore.

Let me rephrase by saying that it's £165 for 4g support and a 5 inch screen with the capability to add up to 64gb of memory in ad card format
