Moto g 4G LTE. has a SD card slot and is an amazing phone. Right now on Motorola.com you can get the moto x for $100 off (299 total) so I'd get that!

New Motorola Moto G or a used Samsung Galaxy Note 2 in great condition for this price range

Anything but a s3. terrible radios, TW and carrier crap not worth it. Unlocked g lte ftw..

My S3 served me pretty well, but the battery life is horrible. If you do go with it, make sure you have two extra ones (if you're a heavy user). I was switching them out every 4-5 hours...

It's always best to back up your info on as multiple things just in case. Memory cards aren't 100% everything proof, neither is your computer or cloud.

To a large degree, that may depend on your carrier. Several of the less expensive phones are discounted by the prepaid carriers, to get you to use their service. For example, Cricket (which is now owned by AT&T and uses the AT&T network) has the Moto G (which has been talked about here) for $99; plus they will send you a $50 Visa card as a rebate.

I know this is an Android site but hey, I might get some unbiased posts. What do you think is better as a business tool, the BlackBerry Z10 or Moto G? Or other similarly priced phones as the Moto G. Thanks .

Seriously, save or borrow $50 and get the moto x. $299 off contract can't be beat for a great phone

Moto G.

The entire appeal Blackberry for business is BBM. It's not the hardware. MotoG will be more compatible and have a larger app library and be more likely to be supported in the future.

Moto E is probably your only real choice.

Moto E by Motorola

Can't think of anything that is close to that for that price. You can get a Moto G for $100 at Verizon I think.

This.

My BF has an S3, and it runs VERY well on KitKat. Significantly better than I would expect for that generation of phones. It has a nice camera and SD support and a 720p display. Touchwiz does suck, but if you can stomach it, that is a great phone.

Battery life is indeed awful. But you can also buy extended batteries for it, and with those it will easily equal modern phones for battery life. When he had the extended battery he could go over a full day of heavy use.
