A good smartphone ?
 

I'm not really a hardcore user of mobile applications, so what's a good smartphone at a price that is not so high (no crappy stuffs)

moto g for price/quality

and in before crapple fanboys offer their overpriced gadgets

iphone 6

Samsung Edge looks good

Fanboy #2 just arrived, iphone 6 :laughing-

But if you are looking for an economical phone, then go with the:

Goophone I6 - Official Goophone Shop

It's the best of both worlds. Android operating system mimicking IOS 8 and it's a Iphone 6 clone.

All for $229
And you can even request that your phone has the "Apple" logo on the back with the Apple box :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

:thumbsup

Top of the line price wise phones while he asks for inexpensive ones. :error

OnePlus One... still

I LOVE My Droid Turbo ;)

iPhone 6. Nothing else comes close.

You Isheep can not even read.

And by the way quite a few comes close and surpass it. Same S6 as an example.

What about a "Samsung Galaxy Core" ?

what size screen do you want/need/are willing to carry?

As small as possible but still big enough to be useful without a magnifying glass.

If you're not into cutting edge pricing - I'd shop around for a Samsung Galaxy 4. Most places give them away at bargain basement prices with a mobile contract. They're fast, reliable...have a helluva good cam...good battery life.

it has mediocre reviews Samsung Galaxy Core I8260 - User opinions and reviews


then i'd take a look at either of these.

I got a nice Sony xperia z3 off eBay new for $300. 21 MP camera, waterproof and supports my 128 gig SD cards. Also takes dual Sim cards which is great for travelling or having personal and business line on the same phone.

+1 :thumbsup

Some people here can't read.

If you aren't a hardcore app you could go with a Lumia. Wait for the new models supporting Continuum though.

I'm really happy with my iPhone 6 plus.

However it's still a bit pricey as is the 6.

Samsung has some nice phones that cost less.

I think ull like the Sony Xperia z3 compact

What do you guys think about Samsung Edge?
Do you like the side (edge) screen? I am thinking about maybe purchasing one.

sony z3 :thumbsup

Got mine on thursday and love it. Not yet fully set up everything, but performance, features and design are outstanding. It wins all tests and that for a good reason. If you have the cash get it :-)

Do you have issues with that flappy bit on the side that covers the usb? I always worry it's going to pop open and water would flood in.

samsung galaxy S(any number above 3). heard htc is good too, i've never used them.

Just go to the shop and try a few of them.

samsung galaxy s4 or s4 mini, you can get an unlucked one on ebay for 100-150 eur, or htc one m7 for a bit more

Absolutely. Even though I'm upgrading to the S6 Edge tomorrow, I can attest that the S4 was a fantastic phone for the last two years. My buddy has an S5 which he also loves. I'd go for the better deal of the two depending on what you can find.

+1 for any samsung model which you can afford with your budget

Love my Moto x gen 2

Looks like some people here have some serious problems with reading. It does not surprise me.

There are low price samsungs for 100 euros that work fine.

84 euros.

I refuse to buy my kid more expensive phones, he always breaks them.

You can get the magnetic charger instead works great.

I'm thinking about going prepaid when my current contract expires. Tired of being screwed over with high bills when I hardly use the thing. I have a Samsung Galaxy tab s tablet and a nice PC. The only use I need for my smart phone is to check the web and weather when I'm out..

Anyways here is the phone I might go with for $99 Samsung Galaxy J1 It even comes with the latest Android Lollipop 5.0.2. I thought about the Moto E but it only comes with 4.6... Edit it looks like Moto E is now running on 5.0

iPhone iPhone iPhone!

I find it funny how everyone overlooks Motorola, their Droid Turbo is a great deal at $99 with a two year commitment, they even got the cool color accents now. The batter is awesome, the phone is powerful, and Motorola has amazing antenna technology. Look up some reviews on it, you'll be amazed. I know the battery life isn't as long as they say and it's been a step down from the Maxx, but it still gets me through every day and with the Lollipop update, they predict it'll get better.

I have one.agree

My LG Optimus is great, and it was free. :upsidedow

ALSO, one good thing about the Droid Turbo, they have a one year warranty on the screen, if it breaks, they replace the phone, no questions asked.

Yup I still have my Samsung Galaxy S4 and love it. And yes you can pick it up at really good prices just now...

thanks, mate. I will probably get one :banana

Motorola Moto E Review: The Best Budget Android Smartphone Under $150 - Forbes

You can get this, the Motorola E, on ebay from shopcelldeals for around $99 to $130. It's Tracfone, though.

We can read as iPhone users are generally smarter/more successful and the reason we give not a single fuck about price. We just consider GFY like family and we wouldn't tell a family member to go buy some inferior phone with a horseshit eco-system. There is no price limit for Superior quality.

iPhone 6 if ya like to text while driving
iPhone 6+ if you can wait for stoplights

:thumbsup

I still use an S3, and will use it until it dies. I've been happy with it.

I'd seriously consider going back to a flip phone if I could find one I liked. I am not someone who takes their phone too seriously. I need to be able to connect, but I don't want to pay a fortune for something.

I got my S4 just slightly before the S5 came out - and have no intention of upgrading. I've looked at the Edge, but a slightly curved screen doesn't do much for me. I love the S4.

Are you on contract or month-to-month and have to pay the full price of the phone? If on contract, I would pretty much go with ANY last generation phone because carriers barely charge for those (due to focus on the newer products).

If you have to pay the full price and are looking for something that just works, here are a few great phones that shouldn't be too expensive now since new ones are all the craze:

- Galaxy S4
- iPhone 5
- Motorola Moto E (2nd gen, very minimalist smartphone)
- Motorola Moto G (2nd gen)

Good advice, just got rid of my 4 and never had any issues with it. Very good phone.

I really like xperia phones, I still have a little old x8, I have it for more than 5 years, I brought it between every kind of harsh conditions around the world, dropped it a million times, once I threw it to the wall... xD (someone called me at a really wrong time)... never had any problem with it :D

only ios, only iphone!
