Grab a Lumia 640 or 1320

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

I would wait a bit to see what the new Nexus line up will be like. Otherwise, the new Moto lineup is pretty solid looking.

Haha, you're in the same boat as me. Though the more I look at it the less I really care about the OP2. Fuck their system.

If you look around you should be able to find pretty much any phone for that price, especially used.

I've seen several Note 4's locally here for $450. New. Just make sure they're unlocked, or can be switched to your name.

You should easily be able to grab a Galaxy Alpha for that. They're $350 here. They're only $445 on Expansys.

 

Z3, Nexus 6 if you can handle the size, Z3 Compact, Motorola X Play, HTC M8/M9 are all decent phones.

 

 

used Z3 for ~200-300

I've never seen one in good condition that low.

Canada never gets the good deals :(

That price has me seriously tempted to get one though.

Looks promising but I'd wait and see what the battery tests are like.

I almost thought about getting one, but at $700 CDN it's a no go.

I'd go for something else. They're not bad, but not great. Battery life could be better. Screen is a little on the dim side.

Yup. We don't get it in Canada, we got the X Play.

So, the 32GB version is $475 once you get a nicer back. Add tax plus exchange rate, you're at over $700.
