Looking for an Android Phone that can run HS?

Hi All,

Looking for a decnt deal on an Android phone(to take advantage of Telstra Freedom plus google play credit)

Key criteria:
-Must be able to run Hearthstone
-Min 1920x1080 screen, although not to sure how bad a 720p screen is?
-Generally clean android experience, i.e. not much bloatware or possiblity to flash Cyanogen MOD.
-Have a google play store

Basically looking for bare minimum at lowest price. Don't care about looks, camera or other features.

  • I haven't tried it in a while, but Hearthstone on an S6 used to run kinda crap, so Im not sure how a cheapy phone would cope to be honest.

    Maybe Blizz have optimized it recently..

  • I'd suggest just to wait for a few months as the Nexus 6P/Nexus 5X prices will drop substantially with the upcoming release of Marlin and Sailfish. A min of 1920 x 1080 screen can be difficult to find on some budget phones, so if I had to suggest a phone that doesn't break the bank, I'd say go for the Moto G4 Plus which retails for $350-370 right now… Up to you :)

    Redmi Note 3 Pro 3/32 version?

    A quick google yields results that it is not initially compatible, but there are others where people have it working.

    • Probably just Google Play claiming it's not compatible, easy enough to get around.

    • This and it has CyanogenMod 13.0 at $190.
      But camera is a trash.
