- mgkimsal 9y agoi could never find a $100 windows phone to buy. I always had to get it 'free' with a 2 year service contract. The 'retail' price without a service contract was still, IIRC, in the multiple hundreds ($499? $599?). Not spending that on what would have been a secondary/dev device to play with. FWIW, I never saw too many on ebay or craigslist at the time either.
- homero 9y agoThere were tons of these for $129 in 2013 https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LIWB34Q/ref=dp_ob_neva_mobile https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LIWB34Q/ref=dp_ob_neva_mob...
- mgkimsal 9y agowish I'd seen one of those - would have used it as a secondary device. :/ thanks.
- jrs95 9y agoI had a Lumia 520 when I was a pizza delivery driver, and that was an excellent phone, especially for around $50!
- devereaux 9y agoI still use a Windows Phone (and I purchased a few spares as I love it so much!) Smooth experience, no clutter, no distraction - it just works.
- throwaway7645 9y agoAgreed. A single-core windows phone 7 was waaaay more stable than my android flagship. Superb phones and this is coming from a Linux fan boy.
