Ask HN: What phone should I buy?
Hi HN, I am looking to buy an Android phone. I don't need it to be the latest greatest thing with the best camera or anything, I'm looking for a simple phone that satisfies the following requirements: 1) No bloatware 2) Will be supported for 2+ years (security updates, OS gets upgraded, etc), strong preference for 3+ years] 3) Has a headphone jack That's about it. It seems really hard to find a phone that satisfies these requirements, or am I just looking in all the wrong places? It doesn't need to be insanely cheap, I'll spend a few hundred bucks, I just feel like I'm getting ripped off spending $800 on a premium flagship phone when I don't really need the latest greatest thing. 0 comments on Hacker News.
