What are some of the recommended cellphones (smart phones) that are
under $ 130 ?

I don't do much with a phone,but have had a smart phone for a good
number of years and as it has a non user replaceble battery and is
getting some age on it I am thinking fo getting a new one.
I just don't see me using one of the $ 200 and up phones for anything.

I would like one that will connect to wifi as where I am at sometimes I
do no get good cell tower service from some companies.

I do want one that will fit in a pocket and not one of the large tablet
sizes. I have a tablet and laptop to carry around, but mostly use the
large screen and computer on the desk.

Right now the LG Astro 3 is lookiing good to me.

If I change services to Mint Mobile like I am thinking of Trader4 said
there is a code I could get so he could get credit for a new user. Not
sure if I go that rout,but may in a few months.


That LG phone looks very light to me:

LG Aristo 3

Processor. ARM Cortex-A53, 1400 MHz, Cores: 4.
RAM. 2 GB, 667 MHz.
Storage. 16 GB.
Display. 5 in, IPS, 720 x 1280 pixels, 24 bit.
Camera. 4160 x 3120 pixels, 1920 x 1080 pixels, 30 fps.
Battery. 2500 mAh, Li-Ion.


The ZTE that I bought two years ago has 8 cores, 1.2 ghz and it was
a $130 phone, new. I think you can do a lot better.
