You are not going to get a phone equivalent to an Apple phone for $100. The top Samsung phones are not really much cheaper than Apple phones either.


Oh yes I am! :--) at least from my perspective, My Samsung A03 (https://www.elgiganten.se/product/mobiler-tablets-smartklockor/mobiltelefon/samsung-galaxy-a03-smartphone-464gb-rod/414919 1190 SEK is = 105 USD) is just as good.

Then again, I never was able to tell much of a difference between the "flagship" phones and those just a notch above "the cheapest shit out there". Last year, I bought an Alcatel for $45; that was a shit phone, and a cheapid investment. (Like buying a cigar butt a little too cheaply – something's often deeply wrong...) I couldn't keep using that one, I threw it away after like a month.
But if you just go up to the $100 threshold, and go with a familiar brand like Samsung, in my experience, you will get everything you will reasonably need, as long as you are not a super-advanced/professional user.
By the way, isn't it kind of crazy that I can get a handheld computer for a price lower than that of a pair of Levi's jeans? Something's wrong with one of those prices – or both...
