The Motorola Moto e is the best budget smartphone.

Prove me wrong.
>>
What classifies as budget?
>>
>>53171600
costs less than $100

>any smartphone
>good
Please end this fucking privacy and usability nightmare fad, kids.

Just buy a classical old phone and remove all parts which are not required for communication - that way you're safer from tracing than most people.
>>

>pist that everyone appreciates smartphones

>uses one himself

>spends his life bitching about shit he doesn't like in threads he hates

Poor baby
>>
/CSG/ would like to have a word with you.

Besides, the moto e is a Chinese phone anyways, so you might as well buy from meizu or whoever the fuck makes better value phones than moto.

hahahahahaha no

Hahahaha

I have a moto g lte 1st gen and it's fucking garbage.

Has noticeable lag at times when opening apps or switching. Music player stutters due to some shitty microlag

It would be fine if you used 0 apps.

Thinking of getting a xiaomi mi 5 to replace this old shit
>>
>>53171563
Get the fucking ulephone power and enjoy a 6kmAh battery in your phone.
>>
>>53172049
>my phone must have a camera on it but not any camera a front camera
yippity dingle doo!

Lg g2 for $80 is better in every way

Droid 4 is better in my opinion

$80 zmax2

-can be unlocked from att for free
-SD 410, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage
>>
>Used LG G2
Decent camera
Easy and many ways to root
Great XDA support (even CM13 official)
Big Screen
Excellent battery life
Good hardware, that will make it last for a couple of more years
>>
>>53172206

Looks good on paper but there is no way I'm buying chink shit from a brand called "Doogee"

There are some respectable chink companies. This is not one of them.
>>
>>53172351

Looks bretty gud. If I didn't already have a MI4 I would get the 5.
>>
>>53171563
I can't.

Got it on xmas to replace my dead phone along with a 32gb micro sd.

I just use it for communication, music and calendar.
>>
>>53173123
Problem?
>>
Can we stop it with the 5" phones?

4.7 or smaller
>>
>>53171563
Still using Moto G first gen with Cyanogenmod 12.1. It works, still as fast as the day I bought it so why change it.
>>
>>53173686
That's why 1st gen is best gen.
>>
>>53171563
does the Wileyfox Swift count? It's 150 shekels.

What about the Xiaomi Redmi 2? It's like $100 and pretty decent specs
>>
>>53175646

Is there an official CM release for this phone? I might actually get one, 4.7" is the perfect screen size for me
>>
>>53175738
No official release yet but stock 4.4.2 kitkat is good enough once you debloat it and install the nova launcher in like 5 minutes.
>>
>>53171563
I thought that too but then I noticed it has no flash-LED...

Ahhh... this will be a swell night, 20 portion packs of hot chocolate freshly purchased and I am charging the chargepak c6l in my Pure one classic while browsing /g... nothing that needs to be done for half a week... :^)
>>
>>53175800

Yeah I guess. What about network companies? I can only find Virgin and Boost mobile models, and AFAIK those won't work outside the US
>>
>>53172506
U can get it is second hand from Craig list ;ppppp
>>
>>53175872
Yeah, unfortunately it's a CDMA phone. Only companies running on sprint networks work with it.
>>
>>53176031

Would it work with non-US Virgin? I think it should
>>
>>53174654
>chinese shit

>>53176072
I'm not sure, you should contact them and find out.

Too bad this is a cdma phone
>>
>>53175646
What does enhanced lte mean?
>>
>>53176605
Basically it means 3 lte bands to give you faster download/upload speeds than a single lte band alone. I get 20-30 Mbps download with it. Some users report 50 Mbps or even faster speeds.
>>
>>53176605
Multiple lte bands are used to download porn faster.

My friend has a iphone 3, and he can't even go online with it. All he needs is a browser, email, skype, telegram, pandora, and facebook. Is there a good budget Windows phone?

windows blows, I recommend the warp elite instead. It has 2GB of RAM.

Cool that you mention it, because my sister wants this very same phone because she saw it going for 45$ in Amazon.

The weird thing is that it's a Tracfone. Posting link with dots replaced by zeros so as to not trigger peeps thinking it's spam:

http://www0amazon0com/Motorola-Android-Prepaid-Minutes-Tracfone/dp/B00PWEN2ZE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1456426456&sr=8-1&keywords=tracfone+moto+e

Thing is, is don't know how Tracfones work. Once in a while, an uncle of mine would come from Mexico and buy a Cheap Tracfone to maintain communication with people while he was here. What i want to know is if it's some sort of disposable phone. Because if you can simply buy it and put whichever SIM card you want, that would be Awesome.

Is the Luma 640 (if I can find it at a store now that the 650 is coming out) or Alcatel OneTouch Fierce XL a good budget phone?

I don't necessarily use any apps aside from the web browser, camera, and email.
>>
>>53173123
Sounds more enticing to people when they hear six thousand milliamp hour versus six amp hour. My drill batteries are in Ah.

Ye's tell me about i't. Fool's

I have the same phone as you, I have no problems with it, I can play hearthstone while browsing with opera browser and other stuff, maybe y ou are a faggot using a 6.0 rom?

BQ Aquaris X5

Moto G 3rd
Lumia 640

all ok budget phones. Lumia is WP which are still kind of meh from what I heard. Not talking about app availability
>>
>>53171563
Can anybody tell me why not to buy a new iphone 4?

Sturdy - had a second hand one for about 2 yrs, dropped it loads, no prob

5" screen - doesn't feel like I'm carrying a plank of wood in my pocket

About $150 - budget

If not, why not? What is better at that price
>>
does the Lumia 640 has win10? Do I get a 650?
>>
>>53178110
Ios 9

>>53178110
zte warp elite, 2gb of ram, $100. Apple used to be cool but not anynore, only fags use it now. It's time to move on anon.

Thinking of getting an Android backup phone

Been looking at Moto E and G, but also open to other budget type phones.

It's a backup, so backup states are fine
>>
Rocking moto g 1st gen, stock ROM is pretty bad. Anyone know a good custom one?
>>
>>53180485
$10 walmart phone or if you want something a bit better have a look at the ulephones.
>>
It was great. I bought one when my phone was busted and I needed one fast. Honestly, I can't complain about my old moto e. Though honestly unless you really need a phone right now on a budget, just spend the extra 70 bucks and get the g.

>>53172182
mine didn't. Though I had a first gen with a 2 gig hard drive. It had space for nothing.
>>
>>53180485
lg volt, i got mine for 50 bucks on amazon. Basically a 2nd gen moto e with a bigger battery, better camera, and camera flash. Oh and the battery is removable too.
>>
>>53177304
>>53177738
After looking for deals, we just went to get the Lumia 640 with him. $30 no contract at walmart. Only AT&T networks (he had straight talk and we just had to put in APN info to get it to work). So far he's happy with it
>>
>>53172049
Uhh it does have a front camera
