Can anyone point me in the direction of a decent Android phone less than 200? I need a cheap replacement to hold me over for a few months as my Xperia Play's flex cable is going bad (I would get a new flex cable but I don't want to screw anything up.)

Im looking at

Option 1 and Option 2 but am a little cautious as both phones are Chinese made. (That and the phones are running really terrible specs.)

What Im looking for is something that can hopefully run Android 4.0+ and has a dual core processor (and works on AT&T).

Thanks for trying to help out!

Note 2 99 bucks, cant beat that

Oh snap saw you needed this for att, my bad.

Check Craigslist, you might catch someone else upgrading and pick one up on the cheap that way.

Yeah the only catch is that I need an unlocked phone as I am still in a contract.

I have no idea if it is a Dual-core or if it is $200, but the Samsung Galaxy Exhilerate is a low-end Galaxy that can be upgraded to ICS through Samsung Kies.

You can get a Pantech Flex (basically an HTC One S in a Pantech body) for $200-ish. I saw one on swappa.com (it's a site where people buy and sell their phones). I would check it out.

For a $100 you can get an unlocked Nexus 4. I now it's 33% more than your budget but it will surely last and out perform those 3rd market phones.

I'm guessing you mean "For $100 more," but yeah, I was going to suggest the Nexus. If you can get one while it's in stock, it will definitely be a great phone.

I actually got an Optimus G and I'm loving it (I somehow was eligible for an update...)

$50 for a phone that is pretty much a Nexus 4 minus the Wireless Charging, Stock UI and with an SD Card slot? Hell Yes.
