    Refurbished/Second Hand Samung Galaxy S8 would be my recommendation..

      I'm actually getting an S8 Plus for $350 but comparatively A50 is better.

        But not really, the S8+ is still the better handset.

            @ProBoDoBo: There's also the Razer Phone 2 for $580, with the Premium Satin finish, from Razer.com
            But you will have to setup a forward shipping to be eligible.

            It's honestly a good deal, but requires that extra input to received it Down Under.

    local stock or china/HK?

    • ProBoDoBo on 30/07/2019 - 10:43

      Any would work actually as I'll be gifting it overseas!

    Apparently a "new" brand of lower cost mobiles https://www.mintt.co/ is due to launch in a couple of days (aligned with sponsorship of some tv show). Prices seem to be $179 and up.

    I haven't (looked for) seen a review, but they apparently sell a lot in PNG and Timor Leste.

      The specifications are quite vague and excludes a lot of information.

      They fail to mention the screen resolution and the processor / SOC model. Looks like some of them might be Umidigi or some other custom OEM phone that's been given custom skin / logo.
