Sub-$300 phone

[PepperBurst]

I am currently looking for A sub $300 phone. I currently have my eyes on the OnePlus One and the Asus Zenfone 2. Though I'm not quite sure on what I should get. Also, if you have other suggestions, please do say so. Thanks.

I can't imagine that you could go wrong with either one....I personally just picked up a 64GB Zenfone 2. I do wish the screen was brighter, and that the plastic back was a bit more durable. I ended up giving it a small ding when I smacked it against a door frame in the dark. (Doh!) 

 

Nitpicking aside, I have no problems with battery life (unlike Linus) but, I also did clean up a lot of the crapware, and didn't install Facebook, or FB Messenger (two things that are notorious for destroying the crap out of phone batteries regardless of platform), which probably helped a lot.

Nexus 5 . It maybe be a old modle , But i think it holds up to this very day .

Personally i own one as well . better than any other phones that iv used.

I see then, well considering myself, I'm a bit harsh on my phones, like, very harsh so I'll take that into consideration.

Nexus 5 all the way.
