So we have decided to finally get our son a phone, not so he can blend in with his friends but there have been a few occasions where we have needed to contact him when dropping him off somewhere and what not. He isn't after an iphone, and I had a One Plus One in mind as it's been a pretty popular phone and affordable. The budget would be around the $400 mark and should be Android platform. Any recommendations with link to deals would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
for $400 you could get quite a good-spec'd phone nowadays. for starters I wouldn't waste money on a cheap Alcatel Pixi or Vodafone Smartphone thing. I would recommend you try the Kogan agora Pro phone. for $299, you can't really go wrong on that.

otherwise if you wanna stretch the budget a bit, try the LG G3 or G4 series. I'd say that should suffice.
