Cheap SmartPhone (sub $200)

Hey,

My xperia play died on me a few days ago and I am looking for a new phone. I was happy with the performance of my phone, I mainly used it to browse reddit, OzB, Whirlpool and some other forums on public transport, listen to music and phone calls. I have rather fat fingers, so I would prefer something with a screen at least 4-inches. My main priority is battery life.

I am looking for something on the cheap around 100-150, maybe 200. I am on Aldi mobile.

The xperia sola seems good, but the screen seems to be quite small. I am open to any suggestions, as long as I can get the phone within the following week. Refurbished phones are acceptable, as long there is at least 3 months warranty. I've been looking up some phones on aliexpress, the jiayu g3 seems decent, but I wanna look around first.

I am open to any OS, as long as the browser is decent.

Thanks in advance.

  • have a look at the Huawei G300 from Vodafone. It has a 4" screen. It's around $129 locked to voda but you can unlock it cheaply from ebay.

    see if your local Dick Smith still has the HTC Velocity ($199) in stock, its a great phone with a 4.5 inch screen

    The Alcatel OT-995 is available for $179 at Dick Smith, it has a 4.3" screen

    • I believe voda phones can be unlocked for free on voda's website.

      • not all of them work
