I am looking to spend about 150.00 US dollars on a cell phone. I don't know a lot about them. Any recommendations?

What features are most important to you?

I do text. I need more memory. I would like a better camera. I do make phone calls. I want to keep my number and contacts. I also use it to look things up on my phone.

Not sure who your provider is myself I have Verizon and went with a Google Pixel phone where I can take all the pics I want too and I have unlimited text, voice, and internet.... When I signed up the phone was part of the package... I had to pay a little extra for the upgrade but was like maybe $60 and added it to my monthly bill.. If you already have a provider check to see what your upgrades are.. Sometimes a new phone is included..

I don't know much about phones and there are so many out there!! Thank you.

cutie if your current phone is is any more than 3 years old then the simple answer is any new phone offered by walmart and straight talk will be faster have more memory and a better camera. and if you stay with straight talk, you won't need to do anything extra to keep your number. transferring your contacts and and what ever else is on the phone is very easy now

Hard to say for I have never bought one outright... Mine is a android as well but they are expensive if you buy them outright. Many phone providers will include a phone and for an upgrade, you can get a better one.. Be careful getting one that is being sold by an individual for many phone providers will not unlock phones as they say..

And no matter who you go with or change phones you can always keep your same number.. I have had the same number from the first day I got a phone lol Humm like 21 years now.. And they should be able to move all your info to the new phone when you buy one... But it is possible you will loose some info.. or pictures

More memory = put a SD in it. When I got my new phone I bought an SD with it. Phone has 64GB, SD 32. I store most things on my SD (photos & vids) and regularly put all that on the PC. I'm guesstimating newer phones will automatically have more GB.
