I mean, if it's a hardware problem then it probably does fall on Huawei's shoulders. They are the ones that are responsible for the manufacturer warranty as stated in the 6P's packaging.
Edit - For anyone curious about what Huawei covers in their 6P manufacturer warranty (In US), just download the warranty PDF they offer on Amazon where they directly sold the 6P themselves.

mid tier phones are cheap as shit. You can get good mid range Motorola phones under $300 and sometimes under $200. I have not seen these prices affect the mid and low end at all.
here is the G6 for $235. . That is pretty much the current king of mid tier phones.
Also, if smart phones were considered a right, there's no way you'd get an iPhone. Probably something more like a Moto E if you're lucky, or something like a BLU Advance A4 if you're not. No way in hell government is gonna hand out $800+ smartphones if everybody is getting one.

Your story doesn't seem to add up? Retails for $85 Canadian? Amazon has it for $370 and in the US it is retailing for about $200
Doesn't seem Freedom is doing anything incorrectly based on their website. You can't really blame them for not doing your research. It's like if I blame Nissan/Chrysler for buying a vehicle at MSRP when they openly offer thousands and thousands of dollars of discounts
How about linking the amazon page and not android authority
Direct Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B075TNZDC7/ref=psd_nobrainer_B075TNZDC7
Without inside information it's impossible whether the factory is actually producing phones still, but they are still available new in all finishes from Huawei, so the supply of them is certainly still there.
Buy a cheap Android phone like this. Keep it with you and use it for Reddit and whatever. When you’re with your parents, use the iPhone to act like your still using it. If you need help buying it, you can buy a Amazon GC on a subreddit like r/GiftCardExchange or pay cash at a Walmart for one there or something. Then buy it now on a guest account so it can’t be tracked to you. You can also pick it up at a Amazon locker, or ship it to a friends house so your parents aren’t suspicious. Hope this helps :) Lmk if you have any questions
are you with Fi because of a particular reason (such as multicarrier support, or international calling, or datasim, etc)? if you like those features, you might need to suck it up and stay with FI, with or without purchase of their phones.
if not, you could buy a great phone for around $200 and use it with /r/mintsim.
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.

Is there a specific reason you only want to use the Play Store?
Yes, I've been through this process many times!
I hate smartphones for so many reasons. The expectation of being constantly available to your screen. The goddamn size of them -- even when I'm wearing clothes with good pockets, I'm a small woman! There's only ROOM for so much pocket ON MY BODY! Smartphones have basically forced me into carrying a purse.
I went back to dumbphones for about a year but, like you, eventually the need for maps got the best of me. Honestly it was the only thing I missed, but I REALLY missed it. So I wound up back with a smartphone, and once again vaguely pissed off about all the things about it I hate.
Now I'm trying this. It's a dumbphone sized smartphone that's snappy enough to not frustrate me, but not high powered enough to let me disappear into a screen when I should be engaging with the world. It'll do maps, which is really all I care about, and I can finally get rid of the damn purse again.
I am planning to start a KonMari Pt 2: The Digital Hoard in the next few weeks. Transferring over to this smaller phone full-time is gonna be part of that.
I have all of my electronics gathered in one place, and I'm planning to do a major declutter of all photos and files. I have a server, so I want everything backed up onto it, and then my actual daily use devices to be clean.
Then once I've done that, I'm going to tackle... email. I'm NOT looking forward to it, but it desperately needs doing!
If you don't need cutting edge, Moto G7 or G7 Power are pretty cheap right now. I would definitely recommend those over LG Stylo 4. Pixel 2 XL used is definitely in your price range, used Pixel 3 XL is perhaps just outside your range for something in good condition.
Phone size comparison.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015YCRZ1K/
You could grab a OnePlus 3 for $375, or a ZTE Axon 7 for $380. If you're willing to extend that budget by $28, you could get the OnePlus 3T, which definitely has enough improvements to justify the extra money. If you happen to have Amazon Prime and you're willing to deal with some ads on your lock screen, you could get an LG G6 for $400.
Those are all coming from official retailers, of course. If you're willing to go eBay, you could probably find most of the top phones from last year new-in-box for less than $400. I personally just bought a brand new LG V20 a couple weeks ago for $370.
But if you really want a phone that came out this year, these are all of your options between $275 and $400 and most of them either aren't very good or aren't available in the US. (Assuming you're from the US...if you're not, then you should probably stipulate which country.)
Same price on Amazon.

Unlocked Essential PH-1 with 360 camera for $399 on Amazon, today only

The Moto G4 with Prime would be a better phone for the money, since the budget is $150 and not sub $100. Alcatel Idol 3 is another option (was $100 last week).
Lastly, if you are considering used/refurbished devices the LG G4 is floating around on eBay for 140-200 and it would destroy any budget phone for photos.

Sony Xperia X is your best choice if the price of the Pixel or S7 is too high.
The headline says $299, the article says $229. Also, it's already on Amazon for $229.

I'm still seeing them on Amazon.
If you're in a country that doesn't have Amazon let me know. I can order and ship to you.
I am a FIRM believer in compact phones and the more that people have these the stronger a signal we'll send to Sony. I will do everything in my power to make these phones sell.
My pocket super computer only cost 60ish.
It does have issues though.
Check out this tiny smart phone.
This has completely killed my phone addiction.
It's a 4G android phone. Can text, make calls, and do everything else a smart phone does, with one small catch. The screen is too small to use for any sort of visual media. I have one, and its is great for calls, texts, podcasts, spotify, directions, and getting a ride. It is horrible for instagram, facebook, twitter, or basically any media platform designed to put ads in front of you. Battery lasts longer than any other phone I've had because it doesn't need to power a big screen.
Good luck. You're making a good change in your life.
Edit: The camera is garbage. You will not want to use it as a camera which is good. Live in the moment, its better than a picture you won't look at anyway.
There are also phones like the Moto G7 https://www.amazon.com/Moto-G7-Power-Unlocked-Warranty/dp/B07N9KQDVG/ref=sr_1_14?crid=3M0ZPZCZ66A5M&keywords=prime+exclusive+phones&qid=1573908361&sprefix=prime+ex%2Caps%2C158&sr=8-14
​
looks like it's on sale for $199 right now. And it has band 71
I recommend the Sony Xperia XA for $200.
The Xperia X for $300 is worlds better.
It is on Amazon! :D
ALSO I was wrong about it being 440. It's actually 539 on Amazon. Sorry!
Here it is
But at the end of the day, it's all up to you.
It would probably be cheaper and easier for you to buy this similar tiny android phone on amazon https://www.amazon.com/Unihertz-Smallest-Smartphone-Android-Unlocked/dp/B0752BYRHM/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=palm+phone&qid=1554493750&s=gateway&sr=8-1

It's on Amazon.CA for international version for $679. Right now on Amazon.com it's $550 usd which is $700 so this is a fair price for sure.
Have you heard about the moto g5 plus, it’s gsm and cdma compliant, 32gb, and it’s a bit over $200 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B077Y8DN87?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_yo_pop_mb_pd_t2

Stylo 4 on Amazon USD179.
supports 5ghz. Really solid phone. This is like cheaper version of galaxy note so it will be even more suitable for your dad with that stylus pen.

The GBA Micro was as small as was possible in 2005. We are talking a 14 year difference in time. I would hazard a guess that making something this small actually play GBA games wouldn't even be a difficult task.
Just compare it to the Atom which is a tiny phone that supports Android 8.1.
Now the phone is a lot more expensive, but a watch that can play GBA games and fits the form factor shown here is completely reasonable.
The Xperia XZ1 Compact sounds just about perfect for you, as long as you're on a GSM network. What carrier do you use?
Huawei Nexus 6P Unlocked Smartphone, 64GB, US Warranty (Silver) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015YCRZ0G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_VIR2xbKJ06VXS
The Mate SE would be a good choice. Some people have had some lag with this phone and the 7x (me included) but that was on Nougat and on the Oreo beta the lag is 100% gone, hopefully they release the final update soon. Battery life is also definitely good, I sometimes forget to charge it overnight with no problems (though I work from home and have wifi always on which reduces battery usage).
Besides this, there's also the Xperia XA2 which comes with Oreo already and seems to be a really nice phone for the price. Probably faster than the Mate SE, though it only has 3gb of ram.
If you don't mind going a little over your budget, the Xperia XZ1 is also a good phone, and with last year flagship's cpu. The only problem is that it lacks fingerprint sensor in the US (boo!).
Other good budget options could also be available soon if you don't mind waiting, like the Moto G6 line and the Zenfone 5.
Here's my list under $300. The LG X Power, ZTE Blade V8 Pro, and Moto G5S Plus would have the best battery life. But if it was me I'd probably buy a Huawei Mate SE or ZTE Blade V8 Pro, with the BLU VIVO 8 pulling a distant third.

Is it just me or is the Nokia 6 the same price with or without ads? (229$)
https://www.amazon.com/Nokia-Unlocked-T-Mobile-Exclusive-Lockscreen/dp/B072FN59FH/ref=zg_bs_2407749011_7/135-1906831-0326709?_encoding=UTF8&refRID=NF7X93ZJMT5D3C6A0NVY&th=1
I think a lot of it will come down to battery and how often you intend to use the phone (for GPS etc). Batteries can be one of the heavier parts of a phone, a more powerful phone will use the battery more quickly, but there might be a limit to what you'd consider usable in a lower end phone.
The Unihertz Jelly is tiny and apparently only 60g, but that only helps so much if you end up having to carry a larger external battery to compensate.
If your phone is going to get even moderate use (rather than sitting in your bag for emergencies) I'd maybe start at with a battery comparison database and look up the weights of phones with an expected uptime which will avoid you carrying an external battery.
I'm thinking of getting the OnePlus 3/3T and I have some questions:
Any other suggestions or comments, please post. I need a phone by next week and looked into the OnePlus 5 a bit, depending on the cost and the actual delivery date, I think I'll likely still go for a 3/3T.
Thanks I will take a look at that. I also found it on amazon for $180 but Amazon-ified https://www.amazon.com/LG-Stylo-Unlocked-T-Mobile-Exclusive/dp/B07D3QKRW1/
Supposedly they do it for a bunch of phones, they used to show you ads on the lockscreen, but people got tired of that, so apparently they decided to get rid of them and instead start harvesting user data.

Oof didnt know those existed. Looks like the XT1955 (Optimo Maxx) is the G7 Power. You can pick up the regular model from Amazon but I don't know about Straight Talk's rebranded version. I really wouldn't think that Moto would remove radio support just to sell to Straight Talk but I guess you never know.
Not sure how much you can get a G5 plus for, as others have suggested for, but the Sony Xperia X just got a price drop in the US to $215, Amazon and B&H.
I've been trying to decide between the two phones (in the UK) but have been put off the G5 plus due to people saying Motorola are very slow to update their phones.
Edit: Whoops, didn't realise it had an affiliate link to Amazon. I got the link from Android Police. I've updated it now.
Best you go for the [oneplus 3t] (https://www.amazon.com/OnePlus-A3000-Factory-Unlocked-Phone/dp/B01MXR13TZ/ref=as_li_ss_tl?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1503450069&sr=1-4&keywords=oneplus+3t&linkCode=ll1&tag=dealz050-20&linkId=ab2e679fafe31bf74e165842d165b32a) if you decide to get another phone. The 3t has a superfast processor and a long battery life that can last you more than a day on mix use. Furthermore it has 6 gb ram and is upgradable to nougat 7.
Sorry, new is $450, used is $380

The Moto X Play sounds like it would be a great phone for you. The only issue is that the Moto X Play isn't available in the United States (I am not sure if you live in the US so this may or may not be a problem for you). If a fingerprint sensor is important to you, I would recommend the One Plus 2. If a fingerprint sensor isn't important, than I think that the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 would be great for you. edit use http://www.willmyphonework.net/ to check to see if the phone you have chosen will work with T-Mobile

I have an old BLU phone that I use at times with a data-only SIM and it works fine.
However, if I were in your shoes, I would "splurge" for a $99 Moto G6, you'll need to "activate" it on GoogleFi and you might as well use it for 1 week or - better - 1 month.

Its more of a beater phone with front firing speakers and an HD screen. Though I don't treat it like a beater since I have a low budget.

I have two questions, I can't seem to find any information, is a new Nexus phone going to be released this year? If so should I just wait to purchase a 6P then? Next question, I have Verizon and I'd rather not have their software on my phone, I'm assuming that the version I linked below should work with them?

I'm looking into getting a new phone as well and we're looking for pretty similar things! The one I'm probably gonna get is the [Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3] (https://www.amazon.com/ALCATEL-OneTouch-Unlocked-Smartphone-Display/dp/B013T5ISN8) and it's $200 on Amazon. (part of why I like it so much lol)
My only concern is the processor, because tbh I don't know too much about phones haha. It's an octacore, which sounded really cool to begin with, but now that I'm realizing it's pretty much just one 1.5 GHz quadcore and another 1.0 GHz quadcore I'm having some doubts... I'm switching from one with a 1.3 GHz for reference.
But anyway, I'm probably still gonna get it, and it should come in a few days so if you're still looking in like 3 or 4 days, I'll let you know how it is! Pokemon is a selling point for me too so hopefully that works well on this phone :P

Maybe this will help you out
Since you are coming from an iphone I always recommend nexus devices because Google directly updates them.
Nexus 5x is a good phone and would be closer to the 4s size than the 6p.
I have a 6p and love it but it is quite big for formal ware.
[5X Deal USA only] (http://flash.newegg.com/Campaign/9141)
6p deal 64GB USA only
6P deal 128GB USA only
And look at that, /u/Soifon99, it is cheaper now!
Just checked Amazon and they have the phone + 360camera for $399, possibly only for cyber Monday.

Here's a few off the top of my head
Please excuse the stupid question. Do I just add them to the wishlist and just keep checking? I see a lot of versions. Like the black one and the white one. There is this one, the international version at 250 right now. But that's something else right?
The sale is still on. But I forgot to mention you have to be a Prime member to begin with which I already was. Sorry about that.
Checking prices on ebay for the H990DS , its around $450 CAD (no tax)
Might as well get it from amazon ( no warranty )
Also just noticed the missing music app, btw does yours also have the FM radio app/function?
What are your idle temps or reddit temps?
Really appreciate the help
Think it's worth it?

Hopefully returning it doesn't cost $50
This is actually the reason I ended up replacing my z3 after just barely a year. The D6166 is the only z3 model that can't unlock the bootloader and it was abandoned for updates very quickly (other models at least got 6.0).
Since TMobile is GSM, you should check Amazon for unlocked devices since they tend to be cheaper than financing in the long run (assuming $2-300 up front is doable). Something like the Moto G5 Plus should be pretty decent without crippling your bank account.

I had the Note 4 and the Note 5, and voice quality was more or less the same between the two. However even if voice quality was notably better in the Note 5 over the Note 4, I wouldn't recommend that you buy a phone that is over 3 years old unless you have no other option.
If you're on a budget and don't need all of the Samsung-specific features of the Note 5, something like the LG Stylo 4 might be a feasible option.
Reviews on T-Mobile's website should taken with a grain of salt. It's like reading peoples' reviews on the Google Play Store. It'll turn your brain into mush.
Look at Amazon for more in-depth and intelligent reviews (usually).
I'm a motorola fanboy personally. The g6 is pretty decent for the money.
If you want to stay with the iPhone I've heard the SE is decent.
The following LG Stylo 4 from Amazon is universally unlocked to work on all carriers:

Also the Moto G6 Play form Amazon will work on all carrier:

I was actually looking at Moto G6 for $250 on Amazon. Is that a decent phone?
For LG G6 Swappa is showing 3 models. US997, H873, and US997U. ANy idea on those?
oh boy, is this going to be a fanboy rant? I'm a recovering iPhone fanboy myself, I promise I'm not being sanctimonious.
> resolution as the only nitpick and [7nm, great performance SoC, etc]
that's great, it's super fast, that's true and idc since Apple has made fast SoCs for a long time now- the screen is a nonstarter kind of like putting an outdated Honda VTEC engine (B18c) in a Ferrari would just be absurd; sure it's a great engine but it's completely outclassed and undervalue for a high end hyper/super car. 750p wide at $750 is a ripoff, this isn't a spec where you can make tradeoffs for other features as many people do for speaker quality or NFC support- it's literally the thing you look at all of the time.
>worth more mid tier android devices
Maybe, but it's deficit in one huge area is a nonstarter if you're objective. Give it the identical spec under a different brand, what price point would it sell at? I actually want to know.
> 3 GB RAM
the $235 Moto G6 has a nice 16:9 1080p screen, 3GB of RAM, and a SoC that moves things smoothly --not flagship territory like high end Apple, but still nice enough to not be a factor. My point is that the RAM doesn't factor for me but I'm glad Apple dropped the whole '1GB is enough for a phone' bs.
> cameras
Great, it's got flagship cameras. So do lots of other flagship phones at the same price points and better screens.
>64gb, which you cant find easily in mid tier devices without installing a SD card. Even it may only take up to 32 - 64gb
Not really sure where to start on this one... Again, I'll lean on the Moto G6 which has a 4/64 GB version for $300... and a 1080p wide screen. The $235 version starts at 3/32GB as mentioned. Lots of devices will say that you can only add 32-64 SD cards but take 256 just fine... I've done it, it's a patent thing.
>While the screen is LCD and not OLED, 828p and not 1080p, it’s still gonna have a very sharp picture and look amazing.
I like the X's screen and past iPhone screens have looked nice, if a bit saturated like Samsung's. It won't be as sharp as my 2013 Nexus 5's 1080p screen (X notwithstanding). The biggest area where this comes into play is video streaming and picture viewing... I can tell the difference between 1080 and 1440p on my Z2 Force, going from 1080 to 720p is far more jarring- that's not a ~$700 class experience.
> gpu that breaks a sweat when you pull up your dial pad and also the glass is the least durable of all phones
lol, nah. I'm a PCMR kinda guy, I'd agree if that were remotely true. All of the phones I've mentioned have Corning Gorilla Glass except for my Z2 Force, because... Force. If they didn't, I think I'd be okay with buying the tempered glass screen protector like I would anyway if I had literally any phone... Everyone should have a tempered glass screen protector.
---
tldr: the screen is more than enough to be a deal killer when you've got phones for the same money that are as good or better on every feature for the same money... don't pay the Apple tax and be a sucker.
im assuming thats CAD?
either way, an international model costs $400
I know you said not phone based, but I wanted an audiobook player with all the bells and whistles for jogging, and to also have a travel phone so I dont lose or damage my nice one so I got a Jelly Phone for $120. Thing is literally 1/4 of the size of my regular phone, has android so I can load Booksonic, Listen Audiobook Player, Audible, etc., dual sim's but works on wifi without.
​
Not sure about sleep-drunk friendly, I find it easy to use and the screen is small so it's not that bright. Maybe the ipod nano would be a good fit if you like using itunes.
Hi Mike,
​
It seems like the OnePlus 6 is a good fit for you. It costs $498, so is just in your budget.
​
It has:
6GB of RAM, which will be more than enough for what you will be doing.
Relatively Good Dual Camera
6.3 Inch 19:9 Screen
Powerful Snapdragon 845 Chipset
Android 8.1
USB Type-C
Good Brightness
Notched Display (You can turn it off if you do not like it)
​
Thanks!
​
Ok OP, I said I'd get you a recommend. Take a look at the LG Stylo 4 that is close to your budget at $180 and a better deal than the V20. Cons with the Stylo is ram size.
Also the Moto Z2 play I like too from swappa.com. Cons, battery life average. But I would not call it subpar. Really it might be the best pick for around $180.
You just are not going to find everything at this price level imho but we do look hard for it!
That one is the international version. Stay away from that if you are in the US. This is the one you want. Note how it mentions at&t, T-Mobile, Verizon and sprint. https://www.amazon.com/Moto-G7-Power-Unlocked-Warranty/dp/B07N9KQDVG/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?keywords=moto+g7+power&qid=1557943064&s=gateway&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1

Amazon?

Not sure what your price-range is like, but in terms of being updated, Nexus devices are the way to go. The three latest Nexus devices also work on all major US carriers, so you can use it no matter what carrier you're on.
If you like HUEG screens, the Nexus 6, while a bit older, will most likely be seeing a couple more years of updates (Android N definitely, Android O maybe, but I bet it'll at least continue to get security updates). Downside is that it doesn't have a super awesome camera. Available unlocked with no contract on Amazon for $350 here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00R1984DI
If you like large screens but not huge, the Nexus 6P would be the way to go. However, it's the newest flagship, so it's a bit more on the expensive side. Available unlocked with no contract on Amazon for $500 here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B015YCRZ06/
For the best deal, the Nexus 5X (which was released alongside the Nexus 6P) is a more affordable mid-range Nexus device. It's not really a gaming phone (although classic game emulators should work fine), but will handle regular phone tasks fine. Looks to have a pretty good camera as well: http://www.droid-life.com/2015/10/19/nexus-5x-camera-review-samples/ . Google is currently having a sale on the Nexus 5X, where if you sign up for Google Fi service, you can get the phone for $200. Downside is that you have to pay for the first month of Fi service, even if you don't want to use it (you can cancel it after), so it's more like $230, but that's still a great deal.
I'd recommend the LeEco Le S3. It's $150 on Amazon right now which is the lowest I've probably seen it.

Thansk for the input, to be clear you have the international version and not the 8GB version? Also, has the phone received an android Pie update for oxygen OS yet? If not has a release date been announced?

Previous phone was a Samsung s5 when they were the new kid on the block. Doubt I'll ever go back to a flagship phone honestly. Just cannot justify a $400-$600 price differential.
Nope, sorry. When buying a phone for a US carrier not sold by the carrier (aka bring-your-own "unlocked" phone) you need to find an explicit confirmation from the seller that this specific model supports carrier X. This confirmation doesn't apply to any other model sold under the same name.
For example:
Leeco S3 is here.

This site:

seems to indicate that the H990DS is missing HSPA and LTE Cat12 Band 66.
This site:
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Cheat-sheet-which-4G-LTE-bands-do-AT-T-Verizon-T-Mobile-and-Sprint-use-in-the-USA_id77933
Doesn't indicate that Band 66 is used.
So missing HSPA and Band 66, how hosed would I be? Should I just buy a T-Mobile specific one for more?
>It's easy to find a replacement. There are four standard sizes.
So if you're looking for the best available model, and only one size fits, you're instantly ruling out 3/4 of microwaves on the market for something that has almost no bearing on performance or other features.
Hmmmm.
>Never actually had to look for one or has lied about looking for one because they assumed it was hard, so they don't know it's trivial.
Or they care about the appliances they get and know that limiting yourself to 1/4 of available built-in appliances is like saying you can only buy a car with, say, a given length that's within 4 inches of an arbitrary set vehicle length. But, odds are that the best vehicles aren't going to fit that arbitrary specification. And that could be a real problem that could cost you (tens of) thousands of dollars.
You can say that it's possible to find a good vehicle that meets those specifications, but if you actually care about the quality / performance / specifications of the appliance or vehicle you're getting, you should still acknowledge that limiting working models to <25% of what's on the market is...what it is. Sure, you can find a POS model that fits. Enjoy buying a new microwave every 2 years.
Which brings us to your last point:
>Has a really, really old appliance (like 50-60+ years old) that was before these standards existed.
If you buy decent quality appliances, they last for longer than 5-10 years, and it will have been discontinued. Any replacement you find will have to be secondhand or it's remodel time.
>That's like saying "It's so hard to find the right sized case for my iPhone 8." just because cases for the iPhone 6 and 7 exist.
It's more like saying "I wish I hadn't bought these women's jeans because no modern smartphone will fit into the pocket."
You can always go to a tailor to get real pockets installed, but you could've avoided the problem in the first place by buying pants with real pockets that could be used to hold actual objects. And while it's true that some tiny smartphones exist, limiting yourself to the handful of ~limited-capability models that fit is...limiting. You'll probably be able to find something that kind of works. No one's disagreeing with that. But not all [appliances] are created equal, and you're essentially pushing the idea that size is the most important feature of a [microwave, fridge, whatever], when it affects performance and reliability about as much as the color does.
I am sort of phasing out the LeEco for that reason - I think if something does go wrong well poop for me.
Are you sure about the Nokia? I looked on amazon and both the unlocked 6 and 6.1 were listed as AT/T and T mobile (Ultra uses T Mobile)

Thanks for your help btw :)
Take a look at the Jelly Pro from Unihertz. It should work with AT&T and T-Mobile and should fit the bill.
Yeah, it is the 32 GB one. $259.99 for 64 GB.
But I see Amazon has the 64 GB version on sale for $219.99 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077Y8DN87
That's cheaper than a few months ago when I bought it for $224.
Hmm, it is the Amazon Prime version, which no longer has ads on lock screen, but may get slower software updates than the one from Motorola.

Every sub $200 phone has compromises. That said one of the best bang for the buck is the LeEco S3.
My major gripe is there's been no security patch since January however it is rootable with an active modding community on XDA.
Definitely consider a Moto g7 power. Unlocked for use on any carrier going for $179 right now on Amazon.
Huge 5000mah battery. Charge overnight, use it all day doing gigs, and maybe use 50%.
Ample performance, big screen, camera works fine for what you want.

You can do that with a $40 android phone.
If you take pictures for a living or a serious hobby, or you want to shoot semi-professional videos with your phone, I recommend the iPhone 11.
But, if you want a decent Android phone, with exceptional battery life to do mostly phone stuff and the thought of spending over $1,000 for a phone doesn't appeal to you, you should check out the unlocked, $199 marvel that is the Moto G7 Power.
It's not a flagship phone. It's a mid-range phone that works great for the Android apps that most people use, web surfing and, of course, it's a really good little phone.
I originally bought it for my sister because she keeps breaking the screens on her flagship phones and we were just tired of buying her expensive new phones. But I hadn't updated from my Note 5 and decided to give it a try first.
I was charging my Note 5 every 3 to 4 hours. I charge the Moto G7 Power once every 2 days. I cannot tell you how liberating it is to not have to work about charging your phone.
Check out the specs for yourself at https://www.motorola.com/us/products/moto-g-power-gen-7
It has a 6.2" screen and can be used on all major carriers in the U.S. (like Verizon and AT&T).
It's not for everyone. But if you're in the market for a great Android 9 phone with phenomenal battery life, that's cheap enough that you don't worry about breaking it or that would be a great phone for your kids, I definitely recommend the Moto G7 Power.
On the Motorola site it says $249 but I got mine on Amazon (sold by Motorola via Amazon) for $199 at Moto G7 Power - Unlocked - 32 GB... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N9KQDVG?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share (No...I don't get a commission. I'm just doing this because I really like this phone.)
