Cell Phone/Service help
So I'm getting a new phone soon, and can't decide what to get.
Comment what phone i should get ($0 - $150 budget, must be unlocked or prepaid or something like that, ebay and amazon counts)
I don't like androids that much btw
Also since I don't call people that often (thank god for the internet) my family is considering putting me on prepaid minutes. What plan/service should I get?
EDIT: INCREASED THE BUDGET

@cool123ter: lol okay
@katrie: Ye and googling fake will result the same thing. There are many terms you can call it I'm sure but the term you are looking for is 'Fake'
@katrie: I know they're clones, but at least they could have the "feel and look," of an iPhone but in an android package.
Look on craigslist for a phone that's CDMA (if you use Verizon or Sprint) or GSM (if you use T-mobile or AT&T). I recommend the LG G2.
[quote=cool123ter]@katrie: no idea waht that link is. But cloning means you create something THE SAME. Thats impossible because its not even out. The word you are looking for is FAKE.[/quote]
No omg I get what you mean, but that's just literal terminology. Any fake of an iphone 6 is called a "clone". It's just what they're called!
The link is a google search of "iphone 6 clone" so you can see that everyone just refers to fake iphone 6 phones as [b]clones[/b].

@cool123ter: well, i worded it wrong, but thanks anyways
[quote=alanliuis]and cloning means making something the same, but the iphone 6 is not even out yet, so they're cloning absolutely nothing[/quote]
"cloning is the process of producing similar populations of genetically identical individuals". Ugh I don't think you know what cloning actually means.
[quote=cool123ter]are fake you mean. Cloning means its the exact same.[/quote]
and cloning means making something the same, but the iphone 6 is not even out yet, so they're cloning absolutely nothing
[quote=katrie]Yea exactly haha. Any "iPhone 6"s being sold right now are clones made from leaked stuff[/quote]
are fake you mean. Cloning means its the exact same.
Just saying, for 80$ you can't get really any phone out there. I mean most phones are around the 700$ mark.
Just go with a nice looking flip phone. They're badass, I miss throwing my phone anytime I choose and not fearing a cracked screen. Or check of the really now end Nokias or Moto G or Z10. You can probably get a Z10 at around 200 now. Or Moto G at 150$. I may be a little in favour of the Z10 but if you can find one at 200, it's worth it.

I'm actually fine with windows phone
[quote=cool123ter]They arent even out yet.[/quote]
Yea exactly haha. Any "iPhone 6"s being sold right now are clones made from leaked stuff
[quote=katrie]Those are clones
OT: I would suggest google voice, which lets you have a real phone number and you can text/call however much you want, but you'd need data.[/quote]
They arent even out yet. And OP I hope you realize the only other phones beside android and iphone (which is $200 so out of your budget) is Windows.

I'd go with a Pay As You Go plan.
I saw a prepaid phone for $80 on T-Mobile service.
It's the Nokia Lumia 520.
Windows 8 operating system.
I think their Pay As You Go plan is $3 per month for 10 cents/min or 10cents send/receive text.
You can always add more money to your phone but yeah...
Get an iPhone 6, they're only like 100 dollars on most chinese websites.
