The phone was released in September of 2015, and it has an amazing 9.1 out of 10 score on phone arena and a 9.4 out of 10 score for users. Take a look at almost 1,000 amazing reviews for this phone. Also, this phone works on the 4 big major networks in the USA. Truthfully, you won’t find a better phone at this price point, however, I have a couple more up my sleeve.

2. LG G4

Dude, let me tell you, this phone is awesome. I actually love where the volume rocker is and power button. It makes taking pictures so easy. Just double-click the volume down when off and it will take a picture. When on the camera all you need to do is click the volume down button, and snap, you have a picture. Here are the specs on this bad boy.  

  • 16 MP Camera with f/1.8 low-light lens, Manual Mode, Optical Image Stabilization, Laser Autofocus, and high-res image sensors
  • User removable/replaceable 3000 mAH battery, Swap out to a fully charged battery in an instant! (one battery included in box - additional batteries sold separately)
  • 32GB Internal with Micro SD Card Slot Supporting up to 2 TB
  • 5.5 inch IPS Quantum Display Resolution - 2560 x 1440 (Quad HD), 538 ppi
  • Platform OS - Android OS, v5.1 (Lollipop)
  • Chipset - Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor with X10 LTE
  • CPU - 1.8GHz 64-bit Hexa-Core
  • GPU - Adreno 418
  • Memory: 3GB LPDDR3
  • Removable 3,000 mAh Battery

Stats wise, the LG G4 looks exactly the same as the Moto X Pure, however, this is not exactly the case. The build of the LG G4 is much nicer, but the software, I still isn’t up to amazing. This phone came out April of 2015, and I bought it later for around $480. You can get it now for less than $300! It is amazing how fast technology goes on sale. I maybe should have waited. haha. The ratings on it are 9/10 for phone arena and 9.4/10 for users. Also, on Amazon it has like a 3.5 start review with about 100 reviews. Not bad, and is what I personally use now. This phone also works on all the major networks!

Get LG G4

So, my last pick and best deal ever for smart phones under $300.

3. Samsung Galaxy S5

Samsung continues to deliver well-built phones. And right now on Amazon it is only $260. This is an older phone then the other 2 on the list and isn’t as powerful, but it is a good phone at a good price. It was released way back in March of 2014. Yea, long time ago, who remembers 2014? Here are the specs.

  • 16 MP Camera and 2.1 MP Front Facing Camera
  • 16GB Internal with Micro SD Card Slot Supporting up to 128 GB
  • 5.1 inch Super AMOLED Display Resolution - 1080 x 1920, 432 ppi
  • Platform OS - Android OS
  • Chipset - Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor
  • CPU - 2.5GHz Quad-Core
  • GPU - Adreno 330
  • Memory: 2GB
  • Removable 2,800 mAh Battery

This phone has good reviews and I think shines as an awesome water-resistant phone. Phone Arena rates it 9.1/10 and users rate it 9.3/10. For $260, it is a good phone, but for $40 more you can grab yourself 1GB more ram and a bigger battery and screen on phones 1 and 2, but that is your preference. Also, this phone specifically is only for AT&T and T-Mobile. So, if you are on Verizon and Sprint, you would have to pass on this deal.

Get Samsung Galaxy S5
