10 Best Android Phones Under $200 of 2019 Smartphones with the Android operating system are some of the highest selling phones in the world, rivaling Apple’s line of iPhones. Whether you’ve owned an Android-Powered Smartphone before or not, there are a ton of complex details and technical specifications that go into them; this makes choosing one rather difficult, especially if you’re on a specific budget. CNET takes a look at some of the best handsets you can get without a carrier commitment. Give the gorgeous U11 a squeeze to open the camera, or flashlight or your favorite app.
UPDATE: HMD Global's Nokia 6.1, has received its Android 9 update. Read on to find out where it placed and what else it has to offer!
While handsets like the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, iPhone XS and the Google Pixel 3 are stealing headlines around the world, there's a lot of intriguing (and cheap) stuff going on in the world of budget phones.
Sadly smartphone innovation isn't cheap – and most of it is reserved for high-end contract handsets. There is however such a thing as a good cheap smartphone, and ever so gently all those amazing features from the flagship devices are slowly trickling down to the budget phones.
That's why we have sorted through hundreds of inexpensive smartphones in order to rank the best options that you can buy unlocked without monthly fees and, importantly, without a two-year contract.
No, these aren't the best smartphones available in Australia, so you won't find the new Galaxy S9 among them. Likewise, the 4-inch iPhone SE is $599, so it misses the mark by about $100, as lovely as it is.
Here's a selection of our favourite budget and mid-range smartphones. If you're looking to pick up a decent handset for not much cash, these are the top cheap phones your money can buy - even on a budget.
1. Nokia 7.1 (2018)
Weight: 160g | Dimensions: 149.7 x 71.2 x 8mm | OS: Android 9.0 | Screen size: 5.84-inch | Resolution: 1080 x 2280 | CPU: Snapdragon 636 | RAM: 4GB | Storage: 64GB w/ microSD | Battery: 3,060mAh | Rear camera: 12MP + 5MP | Front camera: 8MP
Large, bright LCD display
Runs Android 9
Occasional lag
Deceptively affordable for a phone that looks and feels premium, the Nokia 7.1 brings terrific specs, a striking HDR display and stylish design to the mid-range market and manages to do so for just $499.
A phone that punches well above its weight, the Nokia 7.1 boasts a Snapdragon 636 chipset inside, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage (of course, you can expand that with a microSD card).
As part of the Android One program, the Nokia 7.1 runs a near stock version of Google's mobile OS, with two years of updates and three years of security patches guaranteed. It now runs the latest Android 9 Pie operating system, too.
Plenty has been said about HMD's PureDisplay screen technology on the Nokia 7.1, and what it ultimately adds up to is a gorgeous display that supports HDR10 video content (that includes Netflix and Amazon Prime Video).
What's also impressive is that this mid-ranger also sports a great dual camera setup (12MP + 5MP) on its rear, allowing users to take take brilliant depth-of-field shots with very little effort. On the front, you also get an 8MP snapper for selfies.
Add to this a USB Type-C fast charging port, and what you have is the current high watermark for phones under the $500 price point.

2. Motorola Moto G6
Weight: 167g | Dimensions: 153.8 x 72.3 x 8.3mm | OS: Android 8.0 | Screen size: 5.7-inch | Resolution: 2160 x 1080 | CPU: Snapdragon 450 1.8GHz | RAM: 4GB | Storage: 64GB w/ microSD | Battery: 3,000mAh | Rear camera: 12MP + 5MP | Front camera: 8MP
Low price
Slow camera
Last year brought us a $300 Moto G5, and then eventually a $350 Moto G5S, but 2018’s more expensive $400 model is far from just another link in the iterative chain. With its well-established name, the G6 has bumped up its price but brought with it some premium features.
Some of the most immediate of these include the new 18:9 aspect ratio across the G6 series, allowing for more vertical space when reading articles and a wider playing field when gaming or watching videos.
Despite this aspect ratio change and a significant bump in screen-size, the handsets have kept to a similar size courtesy of a considerable thinning of the top and bottom bezels, resulting in a display-to-body ratio that brings the range comfortably into 2018.
Another ‘premium’ trend that the series has adopted is a glass rear panel. This is an essential design point for handsets that offer wireless charging, but considering the G6 range doesn’t support this feature, it’s a purely aesthetic (and heavily smudge-laden) addition. It's exceptional fast-charging, and it’s a joy to see the G6 sporting the future-ready USB-C.
You’ll also find the whole set running on an OS that’s delightfully close to the no-fuss stock Android operating system, but with just the right amount of clever Motorola features sprinkled on top.
The G6 deftly balances its price with the features and performance you’d expect from a modern handset in this class. Despite sharing the same amount of RAM as its Play counterpart (3GB), the slight bump in its processor and graphics chip gives it a considerable performance edge over the more affordable alternative.
Now, let’s consider the extra $80 you would need to drop to upgrade from the Play to the G6. You’ll be getting a snappy dual-lens rear camera, a USB-C port, NFC capabilities, an actual glass chassis, a front-facing fingerprint scanner, water-repellent coating, and a 1,080 x 2,160 display, bumping the pixel density up from 282ppi to 424ppi.
Many of these upgrades would be worth the dollar-difference alone, but when combined with the performance boosts on tap, it’s easy to recommend forking out the little extra for the G6.
It’s not without identically-priced competition, however — the notch-toting Huawei Nova 3e offers similar performance in an arguably trendier package. That said, fans of Motorola's midrange phones will find the Moto G6 to be a very attractive prospect.

3. Huawei Y7
Simple, focused and deceptively premium
Weight: 165g | Dimensions: 154 x 76 x 8mm | CPU: Snapdragon 435 1.4GHz | RAM: 2GB | Storage: 16GB (microSD) | Battery: 4,000mAh | Rear camera: 12MP | Front camera: 8MP
Terrific performance
Only 2GB of RAM
Outperforming every phone we tested in processing power, graphics grunt and battery life benchmarks, the Y7 is a sleek and capable unit that pays close attention to the important details. This budget handset has some lower-level hardware — only 2GB of RAM and a 720p display are its weakest points, and it’s lacking a fingerprint reader — but at this price it works in its favour.
Many of the fingerprint readers we tested were unreliable, and the 2GB of RAM doesn’t seem to slow the beast down when it comes to everyday operation. Plus, the 720p display looks surprisingly sharp and helps squeeze more out of the impressive 4,000mAh battery.
Its closest competitor in this roundup, the Oppo A57, has identical internals with the exception of 3GB of RAM and still fell short across the board (albeit by a small margin most of the time). Round off the excellent performance with a capable camera and a seriously premium design and feel, and the Y7 is a steal for $249.

4. Oppo A57
A great phone for selfies at this price
Weight: 147g | Dimensions: 149.1 x 72.9 x 7.7 mm | OS: Android 6 | Screen size: 5.2-inch | Resolution: 720 x 1280 | CPU: Octa-core 1.4 GHz | RAM: 3GB | Storage: 32GB | Battery: 2,900mAh | Rear camera: 13MP | Front camera: 16MP
Fingerprint sensor
Only shoots at 1080p 30fps
With a beautiful design and feel that looks almost indistinguishable from Oppo's higher end models, the Oppo A57 delivers premium styling without costing an arm and a leg.
Like all Oppo phones, the A57 has a magnificent camera that works well in low-light situations. It also has the benefit of carrying over Oppo's Beauty Mode for seriously flattering selfies (you know a smartphone is serious about selfies when the front-facing camera has a higher megapixel sensor than the rear).
Add to this a front-facing fingerprint sensor, expandable storage via microSD, a terrific build that remains slim and stylish, and what you have is a mid-range phone that's easy to recommend at $328.
Admittedly, we'd have liked a 1080p screen rather than the 720p one that the A57 sports, and ColorOS may be a little too close to iOS for many Android users' tastes, but it's still hard to overlook a phone of this quality at the price listed above.
5. Nokia 6.1 (2018)
A phone that feels much nicer than its price would suggest
Weight: 172g | Dimensions: 148.8 x 75.8 x 8.2mm | OS: Android 9.0 | Screen size: 5.5-inch | Resolution: 1080 x 1920 | CPU: Octa-core 2.2 GHz | RAM: 3GB | Storage: 32GB | Battery: 3,000mAh | Rear camera: 16MP | Front camera: 8MP
Terrific build quality
USB Type-C port included
Weak low-light camera performance
Once again offering a flagship feel at a fraction of the usual cost, this year's updated Nokia 6 (or the Nokia 6.1 as it's officially known) sports a terrifically sturdy build quality, also offering a pure Android One (which now supports Android Pie) experience for those who aren't willing to shell out for a Google Pixel 2.
Its all-metal build is the first thing you're likely to notice, with a significant heft that makes it feel tough in comparison to most modern smartphones. Its matte finish feels smooth in the hand, with some metallic detailing around the phone's edges, buttons and camera offering a bit of added pizzazz.
And, unlike most handsets in this price range, the Nokia 6.1 also sports a USB Type-C port for speedy data transfer and fast charging. That it also has a 3.5mm headphone jack is just the icing on the cake.
At $399, it's great value, though there are some caveats — system data alone takes up over 12GB out of a 32GB total of onboard storage, leaving you with less than 20GB before you've even downloaded or saved a single thing. Thankfully, the phone allows for expandable storage thanks to its MicroUSB slot.
Admittedly, its camera is nothing to write home about, taking adequate photos that probably won't blown anyone away. We also found that the Nokia 6.1 struggled to take decent low-light photos.
Still, at this price it's probably unreasonable to expect flagship-quality snapshots (though the Oppo A57 and Sony Xperia XA1 come quite close), and in terms of design and overall performance, the Nokia 6.1 is a real winner.

6. Apple iPhone 5S
Apple's iPhone makes the cut if you jump through hoops
Weight: 112g | Dimensions: 123.8 x 58.6 x 7.6mm | OS: iOS 10 | Screen size: 4-inch | Resolution: 1,136 x 640 | CPU: Dual-core 1.3 GHz | RAM: 1GB | Storage: 16GB | Battery: 1,560mAh | Rear camera: 8MP | Front camera: 1.2MP
Touch ID is easy and secure
Battery could be better
It's really, really difficult to fit an Apple phone on a best cheap phones list, but there has to be at least one that's inexpensive enough for iOS fans who refuse to try Android.
The cheapest is the iPhone 5S. The best deal we've been able to find through a carrier is Telstra, which has the 16GB version available for $369 on an pre-paid plan. Alternatively, you could buy it outright on the Kogan website for $429, no contracts required.
You're only getting 16GB, but then again, so are entry-level iPhone SE owners. It comes in space gray or silver, has Touch ID and a still-impressive 8MP camera and runs iOS 10.

7. Sony Xperia XA1
Weight: 137g | Dimensions: 143.6 x 66.8 x 7.9 mm | OS: Android 6.0.1 | Screen size: 5-inch | Resolution: 1280 x 720 | CPU: Octa-core | RAM: 2GB | Storage: 16GB w/ microSD | Battery: 2300mAh | Rear camera: 13MP | Front camera: 8MP
Flagship-quality camera
Battery could have been bigger
Sony has aced this phone’s design in a few respects. It looks and feels slick, with metal used in the right places. This is also one of the cheapest phones you’ll find with a camera that wouldn’t have looked out of place on a flagship a year or two ago.
Inside, you get an ample 32GB of storage, and there’s also a microSD card slot (next to the nanoSIM) in the pull-out tray. Colour reproduction on the 720p screen is respectably rich and vivid, and the display is also super-bright with superb contrast.
Max out the backlight and outdoors visibility is excellent. In Geekbench 4, the Sony Xperia XA1 scored a solid 3,628 points, around 200 less than the 3,824 score the Moto G5 Plus achieved in our tests. Don’t read too much into that, though. This phone is very much in the same league as the Moto G5.
The XA1’s rear camera is among the very best at this price, using a 23MP sensor of 1/2.3-inch size, the same scale as some dedicated compact cameras, and produces images with great detail.

8. LG Q6
Flagship style at a fraction of the cost
Weight: 149g | Dimensions: 143 x 69 x 8mm | OS: Android 7.1.1 | Screen size: 5.5-inch | Resolution: 1,920 x 1,080 | CPU: Snapdragon 435 1.4GHz | RAM: 4GB | Storage: 32/64GB w/ microSD | Battery: 3,000mAh | Rear camera: 16MP | Front camera: 5MP
Gorgeous design
No fingerprint scanner
Often unofficially referred to as the ‘LG G6 Mini’, the LG Q6 takes that flagship phone’s design and shrinks it down slightly to deliver a much more attractive handset than its affordable price point would suggest. We’ve even seen it for as little as $299!
The Q6 offers an impressive 18:9 FullVision display with reduced bezels. Dual SIM support is also included, and you can easily switch between two cards right from the device’s navigation bar, so when you consider that huge screen, this is a great device for international travellers with a lust for watching movies.
It’s also quite capable when it comes to photography, with its 13MP rear camera producing some exceptional snaps under the right conditions. We’re also fans of the ability to switch between standard and wide-angle selfies.
![Best Cell Phone Camera Under $200 Best Cell Phone Camera Under $200](/uploads/1/2/3/7/123721135/104341258.jpg)
The LG Q6 isn’t without its downsides, though — it lacks a fingerprint scanner, and it’s slightly less powerful than some other competing phones in this price range. Still, you’re unlikely to find a prettier handset for under $400.

9. Nokia 3.1 (2018)
A decent option for first-time phone owners
Weight: 138g | Dimensions: 146.3 x 68.7 x 8.7mm | OS: Android 8.0 (Android One) | Screen size: 5.2-inch | Resolution: 720 x 1,440 | CPU: MediaTek 6750 | RAM: 2GB | Storage: 16GB w/ microSD | Battery: 2,990mAh | Rear camera: 13MP | Front camera: 8MP
Quality build
Lacks fingerprint scanner
Officially Australia's cheapest Android One phone (meaning it's as close to stock Android as a non-Pixel phone can be), this year's Nokia 3 (officially known as Nokia 3.1) is a great option for kids and first-time smartphone owners.
Even if you're neither of those things, the Nokia 3.1 is also great for those who want to check out the latest versions of Android soon as they're released (it runs Android Oreo right of the box, and is guaranteed to receive at least two full software updates in the future).
While it's not the snappiest budget phone out there, the Nokia 3.1 offers a quality build, a bright HD+ (720p) display with an 18:9 aspect ratio, a microSD card slot (allowing you to expand upon the 16GB of onboard storage that's included) and a decent 13MP primary camera with auto focus capability.
Priced at just $249, it's hard to look past the Nokia 3.1 as a budget smartphone that'll let you see what Android One is all about. It's also ideal as a first phone, particularly for kids.

It can be a struggle to find a decent camera that balances image quality with affordability. The Sony DSCW800/B 20.1-megapixel digital camera offers all the basic features that you would need with a point-and-shoot camera for a seriously affordable price. While you would get slightly more features with a more expensive model, the Sony DSCW800/B allows for 5X optical zoom, SteadyShot image stabilization, 360o panoramic capabilities and a 720p HD movie setting for recording high-quality videos. Sony’s simple and compact model makes it perfect for everyday use, and a USB charging port allows you to take this camera on-the-go.
Best Budget: Nikon CoolPix A10
In the sub-$200 category, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better camera than the Nikon CoolPix A10. Allowing for a respectable 5X Optical Zoom with the NIKKOR glass lens, this Sony can clearly capture the detail even from a great distance. With an ergonomic design reminiscent of traditional SLR cameras, the CoolPix A10 sits comfortably in your hands and looks fantastic. Several special features make this camera stand out, like six camera filter types such as Portrait mode and Party Mode, which automatically adjusts the flash to match the available lighting, as well as Picture Effect, which lets you add a creative touch to your photos through edits.
The 2.7-inch LCD display screen makes it easy to compose shots and navigate settings even in direct sunlight. Great for filming short movies, the Nikon CoolPix A10 records at 720p and delivers sharp video quality. While not as customizable as a more expensive model, this camera is guaranteed to capture fine detail and vibrant color, making it perfect for anyone wanting to take their photography to the next level.
Best Waterproof Point-and-Shoot: Nikon’s CoolPix W100
Nikon’s CoolPix W100 is a go-anywhere, do-anything type of camera that is ready to tackle ocean photography right out of the box. Capable of going underwater up to a depth of 33 feet, the Nikon is also shockproof from a drop of 5.9 feet, as well as freezeproof all the way down to a temperature of 14 degrees Fahrenheit. Snapping shots with the W100 underwater is a 13.2-megapixel CMOS image sensor and NIKKOR 3x optical zoom with a 6x dynamic fine zoom. Once you’ve concluded your latest underwater adventure, moving pictures off the W100 is a snap, thanks to Wi-Fi, NFC and Bluetooth connectivity alongside Nikon’s SnapBridge app that’s compatible with both iOS and Android devices. It weighs .82 pounds and the rated battery life allows for a fairly standard 220 shots before requiring a re-charge. If your adventurous side keeps you away from charging for days at a time, a second battery is highly recommended to ensure you can capture every shot 20,000 leagues under the sea.

Best Design: Fujifilm Instax Mini 90 Neo Classic Instant Film Camera
Here’s a trip down memory lane. The Fujifilm Instax Mini 90 is just one in a large line of instant cameras produced by Fujilfilm and its competitor Polaroid. What makes the Mini 90 Neo Classic unique is its impressive vintage design. It looks like something from before the digital age.
To be clear, this camera serves a very specific purpose: It shoots and immediately prints images like an old Polaroid. If that’s not something you’re into, turn away now. If it is, buckle in. The Mini 90 can automatically detect the brightness of its surroundings and adjust the flash and shutter speed accordingly—much like a digital camera. Macro mode allows for short distance photography as close as 30-60 cm, and the Kids mode boosts the shutter speed for capturing fast moving objects. Perhaps coolest of all, the Mini 90 has a double exposure mode that captures two images on one film sheet. This allows for a variety of creative options when combined with the macro, light/dark options, timer and flash modes.
Still can't decide on what you want? Our round-up of the best instant cameras can help you find what you're looking for.
Best Starter Kit: Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H300 Bundle
When you think of Sony cameras now, your mind probably turns to their wide range of mirrorless options, which makes sense because Sony really has pulled ahead in that segment of the market. But if you’re looking for a solid camera package that won't break the $200 mark, you’ll want to take a look at their DSC-H300 bundle.
First, the camera’s specs: there’s a 20.1MP sensor for a ton of pixels (more than some DSLRs); it’s a fixed lens, but it offers a 35x optical zoom for tons of distance flexibility without digital degradation; plus, it looks and feels like a DSLR so you’ll get used to that functionality before diving into the more intermediate market. This particular bundle is great for starters as it comes with a 16GB SD card for storing your photos, an SD card reader for interfacing with your computer, rechargeable batteries, a holster camera bag, a cleaning kit and even a lens pen.
Best Action Cam: SJCam’s Legend SJ6 Action Camera
SJCam’s Legend SJ6 Action Camera is the ideal purchase to make sure you never miss a moment no matter where you are on Earth, no matter the conditions. Featuring gyro stabilization, slow-motion recording, a metal body for durability and an external microphone for increased audio capturing, the SJ6 is an action camera that’s made for being right in the thick of any activity. The camera offers a F/2.5 aperture and a 16-megapixel sensor that captures a wide 166-degree viewing angle. Images and video can be previewed on the two-inch touchscreen, while the .96-inch front display offers quick access to a timer. Beyond photography, the SJ6 captures 1080p video at either 60 or 30fps, as well as 720p video at 120 or 60fps. An external storage card up to 32GB can boost the available memory for keeping captured video on the SJ6 before it’s moved off to another device. The 1000mAh battery offers around 65 minutes of battery life at 60fps and 113 minutes of video capture at 30fps. And the included waterproof case allows the SJ6 to go below water up to 100 feet for 30 minutes.

How We Tested
We bought two top-rated digital cameras under $200 that our reviewers tested for seven hours. We asked our testers to consider the most important features when using these cameras, from their photo quality to their connectivity. We’ve outlined the key takeaways here so that you, too, know what to look for when shopping.
What to Look for in a Digital Camera Under $200
Optical zoom - When searching for a digital camera, take its optical zoom abilities into consideration. While some of the available offerings only provide standard zoom capabilities, others pack powerful superzoom lenses for capturing images at extreme distances.
Connectivity - If you want to upload your favorite photos to Facebook and Instagram quickly, ensure that your chosen camera offers options that allow you to connect your smartphone (like Bluetooth or Wi-Fi).
Video abilities - Not all cameras are excellent at video recording. If you’re looking to capture videos of the kids or your latest vacation, opt for a model that offers a minimum of 1080p HD video. Also, options with stabilized video help remove any shakiness caused by your hand.

What We Like
- Great battery life
- Good-quality photos
- Connects easily to smartphones
“The best feature of this camera is its ability to transfer your photos to your phone wirelessly,” raved one of our testers. “The camera has its own signal to connect to your phone directly, so you don’t need to connect it to Wi-Fi for it to work.” Our reviewers were also impressed with its battery life and the quality of its photos. One tester explained: “It performs in low light better than my phone camera, has much better zoom, and takes better-quality video.” The only real downside? Its instructions. “The wireless transfer setup process is not intuitive,” one tester said, “and the step-by-step guide in the print manual wasn't helpful. I had to watch a video to figure it out.”

What We Don't Like
- Average photo quality
- Difficult to focus
While you aren’t going to take the highest-quality photos with this camera, our testers felt it was a good value for what you do get in terms of design and portability at a reasonable price point. “It looks much more expensive than it is,” detailed one of our reviewers. Calling it “surprisingly light,” one of our testers said, “If you're looking for something that can be easily carried around on the go, this would definitely work for that, and may even stand out in that category.” However, one of our reviewers was disappointed by the picture quality, calling the photos it took “generally average shots,” and also thought the auto zoom functioned poorly. One of our testers summed it up, saying, “If you had a phone that took bad photos, though, this could be a good cheap option to increase your photo quality.”
