The phone I'm using right now is a MotoE2(4G-LTE). I looking for an unlocked phone in around the $60 range. (Austin Evans recently uploaded video on the same topic of $60 phones

One of the ones he featured in his video is BLU Advance 5.0, which is the one I'm considering.

 

Please give more suggestions

-I like a phone with a good front camera(Blu is good here)

-I like a phone that looks good(Blu is good here)

-I like a phone that doesn't need you to go out and buy a card, one that works just on wifi(Blu is good here)

-Must have gyroscope and Cardboard support(No idea if Blu does)

 

Thanks in advance

Thats a good option from Blu, but why not save up for a used phone or better new one. Like a used oneplus one, or nexus 4 even is better and they are going for about 90$ canadian on kijiji so thats like 60$ USD cash

Parents are giving me the $60 to buy a new phone. Guess I'll go for the Blu. Do you know if it has a gyroscope?

http://www.phonearena.com/phones/BLU-Advance-5.0_id9887 here are the specs, at the bottom on 'Other Features'  next to ''Sensors" it says it has a 'Compass' so presumable yes it does have a gyro

Processor: Ryzen 5950x GPU: RTX 3080  Mobo: X570 Aorus Pro RAM: 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15
