You mean something like this?
SONY seems to have been doing good lately on keeping their OS very lightweight, and they're aiming to be the first manufacturer outside of Google to release 7.1.1 on their devices.
You sure do have options! Depends on what you are looking for. Here are a few that I would consider good mid-rangers that would deliver bang-for-buck specs and are all very likely to get Nougat or already have it. All of these are 4.6' - 5.2' (Moto G1 was 4.7), and I listed them from smallest to biggest screen size.
Good luck! US Amazon links since that was easy to find, but they should be available internationally as well.
If you can go a bit more than $300, the Sony Xperia X Compact.
dang. it was on amazon and best buy THIS weekend at $299. Sorry to mislead.

Good shout /u/Expandedcelt, I don't follow Sony phones much.
Sony Xperia X Compact for $364
I've seen the same thing going on with the Z5 Compact on eBay as well. There are at least a dozen+ sellers with BIN listings for "brand new" Z5c ranging from about USD $300-350. Many of them say they ship from HK or China. A handful of them say "US Seller" but the listing is almost a direct copy of one of the Asian-based ones (English errors and all), and several of the reviews outright state that when they got the phone, it was clear it had shipped direct from China and that the seller lied when they said it would ship fast from within the U.S.
It's unclear whether these are really brand-new or just lightly used/seller-refurbished, and if they are new, where they are being ultimately sourced from. I'm finding it highly tempting to try and buy a phone from one of these jokers just to see what ends up arriving (if anything). It may be that even as shady as it seems to me on the surface that one might actually end up with a pretty good deal! ...of course, warranty claims made against these phones to Sony U.S. will be utterly rejected, so you will be SOL if something ends up going wrong with them.
Finally, you can easily get X Compact in the U.S. for ~$350. It only recently jumped up on Amazon to the $399 MSRP within the last day or two; before that it was hanging around 350-360 for a good long while, and there was even a 1-2 week period in July where it was selling there for $299. Just keep your eyes peeled. Right now Best Buy on-line has "open box" X Compact in black for $351. And if you want to give Amazon Warehouse Deals a chance (which I've yet to have a bad experience with), they have X Compact for $284 listed as "like new" with "pristine" packaging (https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B01LACBMV2/?m=A2L77EE7U53NWQ).
If you do end up ordering a Z3c from one of these sellers, though, please let us know how the phone is when you get it...I'm super curious.
The cheapest price right now is through amazon warehouse deals. X compact for $339 https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B01LACBMV2/ref=sr_1_3_olp?ie=UTF8&qid=1480824883&sr=8-3&keywords=xperia+x+compact&condition=used
X Compact on sale for $299 as well. (Also ships to Canada)
The Xperia X Compact might be your thing with a compact 4.6" HD screen and efficient SD 650 for good battery, and 32GB storage + a microSD card slot for plenty of space.
