Cell Phone Shopping Help Requested
I need to upgrade my "Blu Life 8 XL". It's a poc. I can't spend a lot of $'s; in fact the only reason I'm now using a $150 STOOPID (lol) phone is because my tremendous LG 3G GD570 flip phones are no longer supported in the area where I live.
From research; I've pretty much come to the conclusion that my options are entry level Samsung or LG. I would prefer Android 7 for security reasons; though I really don't use the phone much on the net, & am very cautious about inputting sensitive info if I do. What's important to me is audio quality, reception, battery life, & reliability. Must support 4G LTE (additional 5G support which T-Mobile tells me they are moving to this year would be ideal; eliminating 3G to have more tower bandwidth for 4G caused this in the first place).
Why I'm posting: if anyone hears of a true BLOW OUT sale of something that fits the above, I would greatly appreciate a reply post. Or if you even know of a board dedicated to cell phone BLOW OUT sales, I'd appreciate the info.

Re: Cell Phone Shopping Help Requested
Ended up with an LG V20 in mint condition for $170. Very happy so far.
