Android phone recommendations under $150

genexis_x

Looking for an Android phone under USD150. Must have good battery life, at least 3GB RAM, 32GB ROM and decent CPU (prefer snapdragon). Good camera is a plus but not necessary.

 

Currently looking at Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus. Any recommendations are welcomed. Thanks

 

Edit: must be new unit, no used/refurb

Desktop specs:

It was new. in a unopened box with all cables and accessories. I buy them that way all the time from ebay. Also if your some reason you get a used when post says new u r no liable for paying for anything and sender either send you a return label or u keep it. this is per ebay policy and also if you use paypal it has same policy so you are double protected.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Samsung-Galaxy-S7-edge-S6-S5-S4-Note-2-3-4-5-GSM-Unlocked-4G-LTE-Smartphone/253502793915?epid=169639036&hash=item3b05f1a8bb%3Am%3AmTg0tB0KZ692-LAnhVqedSQ&var=552687910766&LH_ItemCondition=1000

as a example but with some looking and patience you can get it for less but 240USD is about 60% of retail

There's almost no way you're going to find a phone that cheap with those specs brand new.

You need to spend at least $250.  $150 is like "super slow cheap horrible screen horrible response" phone.

The Xiaomi phones are fine. You can do a lot worse like buying a Samsung J3.
