2- Google pixel 3
Google pixel 3 this phone was once priced at nearly $800 now it can be had for just under 500 there are so many upsides to the pixel 3 you get the latest versions of Android as soon as possible you get fantastic photos even in very low light there's water resistance wireless charging and no comically large not like on the three XL the pixel 3 will also get some of the software features seen in the new pixel 4 including the new version of assistant and astrophotography Google reps told me that the features may not be exactly the same on the 3 due to hardware issues but those are still good features and while the pixel 3 does not come with a standard headphone jack the 3 comes with a pair of wired USBC earbuds and an adapter for standard headphones.

5- LG G8
LG G8 think you know that's not a joke an LG phone is on this list I know I give the company a hard time but the G a think U is really solid at just under $500 it's one of LG's top phones and has bizarre features like a rear fingerprint sensor and a headphone jack it's camera is able to take fancy video by blurring out the background it's not perfect but it's something the g8 also can handle in air gestures get in touch with your inner mime by activating apps with a movement or turning invisible knobs to control volume.
