apologies if there's a dedicated phone recommendation thread, but i searched and couldn't find one if it exists.
anyway, so my current phone looks like it's on its last legs, and so it's time to find a replacement. here's what i'm looking for:
- cheap (anything under $200, i guess)
- generally basic stuff (texts and calls)
- good battery life
- i use apps, but very, VERY few. right now, it's only twitter, soundcloud and youtube and i use the latter not to watch videos but to listen to them (like podcasts) while driving to work
- i don't really browse much, but only cause it kills my battery pretty quick.
- i don't 'need' a great camera, but i wouldn't be opposed to having one (i would like anything with a resolution of 8 megapixels and up, if possible, but not required)
- must have headphone jack!
to give you an idea of a phone i currently have, it's a samsung on5:
- 5 megapixel phone
- 4 GB of storage
- the batterly life WAS pretty decent until it started acting up due to age (now takes like 3 hours for a full charge and lasts about 2 hours or so if i'm using twitter/youtube).
