Question

Which medium-range phone to buy

Apr 7, 2016 5:44AM PDT

My girlfriend wants to buy a new phone. Her requirements:

Around $450 USD / 400 Euros / 600 CAD
Less than 5", or at least in the low 5"
Good camera

As I've only bought the Galaxy S6 and the Nexus and the flagships, I'm not too familiar with the somewhat lower-priced phones. Would appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks

Have you ever heard about the iNew brand? I am just thinking to buy one for myself. Maybe you can take a consider on it, too. Just want somebody to support me either. Grin

That's a Chinese manufacturer, focusing on Pakistan and Malaysia.

Before buying it in another country or taking it with you home to another country, convince yourself that your favorute local repair shop knows the brand and can repair it, if necessary. It would be a pity if they can't buy a necessary part or don't have a tech manual.
