Nexus 5X and 6P

something from Blu

Alcatel Idol Touch 3 (though Alcatel might update it in a few months)

Umm, were you looking for a specific carrier or is unlocked just fine? Also, Android or Windows Phone or iOS?
 

If you wanted iOS, you might be able to fetch a 5S for that much but a 6 (used) and SE would probably be too expensive.

Windows Phone? Eh why not go for Android?

The OPX or waiting for the OP3 might be a better option than the OP2.

Hmm, perhaps the Moto G (2015) with the 16GB of storage as that model also has the 2GB of RAM?
Though again Motorola might potentially update that soon here.

I don't think Amazon sells it, and a carrier selling it might be unlikely.

@Sambo656 just keep in mind that by going with an unlocked phone (at least the 5X), you'll need to be sure that you have a nano sim for your carrier and if it hasn't been already activated, activate the sim card.

 

Otherwise the 5X is a pretty much plug and play phone, and I hope next year if there's a refresh of the 5X with a similar design and same LTE bands and frequencies so that I can buy one and use it on Verizon.

 

Though I hope that if there is a 2017 5X that it has a 1440p AMOLED display with an Exynos 8890/Snapdragon 820 equivalent, and a camera sensor similar to the ones found in the Galaxy S6 and S7. I know for sure the S6 has a great sensor, and it seems that the S7 has sensor better for low light.

 

I currently have a Galaxy S6, and I like it. It's just that its not running stock Android so I sort of miss that a little bit, since my last phone was a Moto G (2014) and that ran a very close to stock version of Android.
