Not much to write about, rules are the same as the one for midrange guide. Price range would be 0-300 USD for the States, and use your local currency as appropriate.
I would like to see people list some interesting budget models that we don’t usually talk about here this week for sure.
OnePlus 10 Pro/T. You can get a pre-owned model for < $300, which is excellent value for money, considering the specs: SD 8/+ Gen 1 | Adreno 730 | 8GB RAM |128GB storage | 5000mAh
And since this is only last year’s model, you’ll still get updates for a good while, so I’d easily recommend something like this over an official low-range/budget phone.
Renewed/pre-owned ones are risky buys though, battery degradation is something to be concerned about these, I think.
One year isn’t a big deal at all in terms of battery degradation. Besides, you could always ask the seller first to check and declare the battery health before you make a decision (this info is available in the settings on OnePlus devices). Also, sites like eBay and Swappa offer buyer protection so it’s fairly safe to buy from there, if there’s any issues or discrepancies, the site will issue a refund.
