Out of curiosity, when have you last used a 200$ Android phone? The options available nowadays are pretty good with updates (from Android One initiative) and hardware similar to (in a few cases, significantly better than) last gen flagships.

Care to name a few?

  I just bought a few for testing at work. There's the HTC EVO 10 for $185[1], the Huawei Honor 6X for $200[2], and the Motoroloa Moto E4 Plus for $130(!)[3]. I also got a Samsung S6 to test, but at $250 for a much older phone, I wouldn't recommend it (but it is a fine phone, it's what I've been using personally for a few years). I just set them up today, but I have to say, the $130 price point of the Moto E4 is pretty enticing given it seems responsive and has a fairly large screen (and if you are fine with Verizon, you can get it for $70 no contract[4]). The H6 seems like the one aimed the most to be a flagship phone. Fairly polished, and with a rear fingerprint sensor (all or almost all the rest have a fingerprint sensor, it's just on the front). Edit: Whoops, the Verizon link and price is for the Moto E4, while what I purchased was a Moto E4 Plus, which Verizon has for $110[5]). 1: https://www.amazon.com/HTC-32GB-UNLOCKED-Version-GunMetal/dp/B079K346ZL https://www.amazon.com/HTC-32GB-UNLOCKED-Version-GunMetal/dp... 2: https://www.amazon.com/Honor-6X-Unlocked-Smartphone-Silver/dp/B01N6IW6UN/ https://www.amazon.com/Honor-6X-Unlocked-Smartphone-Silver/d... 3: https://www.amazon.com/XT1771-Finger-International-Version-Desbloqueado/dp/B072QN1FJV https://www.amazon.com/XT1771-Finger-International-Version-D... 4: https://www.verizonwireless.com/prepaid/smartphones/moto-e4-prepaid/ https://www.verizonwireless.com/prepaid/smartphones/moto-e4-... 5: https://www.verizonwireless.com/prepaid/smartphones/moto-e4-plus-prepaid/ https://www.verizonwireless.com/prepaid/smartphones/moto-e4-...
