We've all had smartphones for the better part of a decade, yet their prices just seem to keep climbing. High-end phones seem to cost $800+ now. Don't let a monthly payment plan fool you, that's a ton of money for a device that likely won't last you more than two years. There are some Android phones under $500 that do the trick, but performance gets mucky when you wade into the $200 - $300 price—which is exactly the kind of the price we wish we were all paying for these devices.
