Android phone for $350 or less - Nexus 5 or similar

Noblejoker on 15/01/2015 - 11:23

Have been offered a near new Nexus 5 for $350 (they are $399 + delivery from Google)
Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy a nexus 5 cheaper and new
Or else a similar phone

My priorities are

  1. Android - the less crapped up the better - Vanilla Android on nexus is good
  2. Camera
  3. battery Life - at least a day
  4. Screen size - not too big
  5. Other performance aspect

If you had up to $400 would you grab the Nexus 5 or something else

    LG G2

    obviously it's got LG's OS on it, but hardware is Nexus 5 level or better (especially camera and battery).

    Or HTC One M7

    if you can cope with the questionable camera.

    or a Chinadroid.

    One Plus One (slightly more expensive)

    Else Nexus 5 or G2 (Flash a Vanilla OS).

    In the market for something same, just can't decide between the 3.

    Will probably hold out for a 350 or below N5.

    One Plus one is your best bet, but good luck importing it and getting it under $350 with the low Aussie dollar.

    Moto G, it's around the $250 mark, and fits all of your criteria besides having a decent camera. And uses pretty much stock Android.
