I am looking for a phone in a hurry because my Aspera Jazz is fairly useless with the maps application.
Don't want to spend much money if I can avoid it. But need one for my job.
The Samsung A20 at about $270 seems to me to be about the best in its price range. Would that be right?
But I'm a bit worried about reviews saying the screen cracks easily and screen protectors are not readily available because the phone is too new or something.
So I thought I would just come and ask here and see if anyone has any advice for me before I go out and get something.
Perhaps there's some tough cheap workhorse out there that everyone's using.
My hurried surveys seem to show that I should look for about 6" screen, 13MP cam, 3G Ram and 4000 battery, agreed?
p.s. and cost-wise I'm worried about the plan aspect which I'm not too sure about. My feeling is pre paid is cheaper for me and I've always had pre-paid phones. I don't understand it all but I think I need an 'unlocked' phone for that? Yes? No? What's the chances there'll be some caveat, some hassle of that sort with a phone that I might go to buy?
Like they sell them cheaper because they catch you on 'the plan' ? Or is that really not a worry?
