What is a good smartphone on the 250 dollar / 230 euros range?

Two or three months ago I was offered an Xperia M4 Aqua on a 227€ discount price, and having grown really used to the previous Xperia U (God-tier phone for the price, I might add), my expectations were pretty high. Unfortunately, with only 1,26 GBs of usable space, occasional crashes and recently being unable of recognizing any sort of headphones, I'm baffled as to how Sony could fuck up this bad. It's going back to the store and I'm getting something better for the price.

Hopefully these personal requirements aren't too demanding for the 250$ price range:
>13 MP camera
>at least more than 1-point-fucking-26 GBs
>compatibility with modern smartphone vidya (no need for top notch performance, I just want to play some good old San Andreas)

So yes,is there any proper smartphone around for the price?

only sony's z series is worthwile imo

i went from an xperia u to a z1 compact and haven't regretted it, absolutely no complains

I picked up a brand new Z3 off ebay for 300$ You can find them used for less but I'd shell out a little extra for a new one.

the screen touch is shit

LG G2
Huawei P8 Lite
Moto G 2GB RAM version

All of those probably won't be updated to Android 6 though

There's also a 16GB version of the M4 Aqua (dual sim) but it's a lot more expensive.

Xiaomi Mi4c (32GB edition is ~$250) or Redmi Note 2 ($170).

Yes, you'll import these.

How the hell so? I have a 28 GB SD Card and I literally can't have more than one moderately large game installed, given there isn't any option to transfer apps directly to the SD card instead of the internal memory. What is your secret, brah?

Flash it with journalist firmware, you dont need unlocked bootloader

>>51760645

but so far i still have more then a gig on my phone free.

Xperia Z2 or Xiaomi Redmi Note 2. Both have micro sd slots that take 200GB cards.

I fell for this meme and two days in I have had no issues, but I am concerned about the battery capacity.

Other then that it seems really damn good for an android phone.
