Nokia 215

You can’t afford to spend a fortune on something that could easily be left behind on the school bus or stolen by the class bully, so what is a good option? Microsoft offers this half feature phone, half smartphone for about $28. Yes, it’s been out since the first quarter of 2015, but the technology is there with MMS messaging, web browser and email capabilities to name a few. It’s also super for Seniors who don’t necessarily need a high level of functionality. It’s a great little phone.

Xiaomi Mi Note
For those who want to step up their game and are looking for a top of the line smartphone for under $400 can find it in this Chinese product. The Note is small with a 6.95mm frame. It carries a curved Gorilla Glass display and a 300mAh battery. The camera is none other than Sony with a 4MP front facing snapper. This puppy has 3GB of RAM with a Snapdragon 801 processor. That should get you where you want to go.

Tonino Tauri 88

Very trendy indeed.

If you have more money than you know what to do with, then Gresso Regal Gold for $6K, or the Sirin Solarin Chrystal White Carbon DLC could be yours for $15,900 and change. At anything above $400, it’s more of a status symbol than a phone unless you have special security requirements.

Asus Zenfone 2
