Looking for a budget phone for my father.
Ideally want 3800mAh battery or above.
Budget is $120.

The 4800 battery is nice to have
What? you edited too quickly for me.
Yeah, sorry. That battery size is nice to have.
@prhino: I'd be happy with a McLaren too, but my budget doesn't accommodate it.
Is that really your key criteria? Is your dad on his phone all day or something?
@spackbace: Yes, and maybe I am being unrealistic. I just figured there might be something on special out there.
stretch $50 to a Samsung A20.
From where
Wait for sale.
Is network (locked) an issue?https://www.bigw.com.au/product/vodafone-samsung-galaxy-a20/…
Plus $1 item
Less $30 https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/513746
= 170 (162 if paying by wish cards)
Locked to Vodafone, but potentially unlockable for $5Coles there a deal that was posted today about the A20
yes second the A20 if only really used for phone calls/text messages etc.
The A20 also has a 'easy' mode, that makes all the text bigger and removes a lot of icons etc.
Plus you can hide anything you don't want them to see etc.

Do you mean like porn or something?
Just apps that they're not going to use, it's for old people.
One thing to be careful of is that mAh doesn't mean everything..
Once bought a $90 Leagoo phone from Gearbest with a large stated battery, it would die in a few hours and Accubattery listed it as just 1000mAh or thereabouts.
Would agree with battler above in considering a trusted branded phone. Their better software will also help make up for lower mAh numbers.Yeah, I think a $200 budget opens up a lot.
Seriously, 120….
Get Xiaomi mi max 3. Battery so good.
Might be pushing it
