Moto style lately is that of pretty much stock Android especially in their Android one program.
+1. My X4 Android One is as close to stock as you can get without being actual stock. And nothing I've heard about the 3a convinces me that it's worth double the price.

Oneplus makes excellent devices, and probably would've got the 7 pro or 7t if I didn't take advantage of a black friday deal with Costco for an S10+. IMHO, the phones are good and updates are pretty good, but one of the best features of the device is charging speed - I was able to go from 25 to 90 during my 30 minute car ride - not an exaggeration.

I could have written this word for word. I also thought OnePlus did a better job with biometrics and I liked the physical switch for vibrate and silent. I didn't realize how great those two were until I didn't have them anymore! But OnePlus's incredible fast charging is next level.

Sorry - momentary brain fart -I took advantage of a costco black friday deal with T-Mobile. I paid $520 for the S10+ with no contract modification - just straight up. They had the note 10 on sale as well, but it was out of stock everywhere.

The OP phones are no sheichus

Here's a review. If you'd like to pay more, go right ahead:

Looking to get some family members new devices. What's your guys take?
 They have the S9 currently.
    Samsung.com had a decent trade in for the S10 which I probably would have done giving in the s9, but it's not in stock on Samsung website so....onto my next option.
 
 I currently have the 1st responder plan with tmobile. So not eligible to get the free phones or deeply discounted trade ins for basically  Free phones unless you have the magenta Max plan.

  So to my next option I see Costco has on sale this coming week or rather next week the Samsung Galaxy S20FE for $200 after going on sale for $499 then another $300 Costco shop card after activating a new line.
Which I'll close after I get my gift card.

Or I can get the Samsung Galaxy S21 for $599 minus the $300 shop card which will cost me $299 plus tax.

It seems I would need to get some type of storage as I won't be having an SD card if I go for the S21.

Is OneDrive my best bet? Where I find it a discount get it with 6 family members paying 60 $70? As you get 6TB divided by 6 family members.
Meaning I should probably be on the lookout for a OneDrive or Microsoft package?

 What's your guys take?

Any chance they'll be some better deals if I wait around for black Friday?

https://www.dansdeals.com/shopping-deals/electronics/cell-phones/moto-g4-play-unlocked-pure-android-smartphone-for-all-domestic-and-international-carriers-for-99-99-shipped-from-bh/
until it bit the dust

what's good these days in that price range (~$100)? (or do I wait for next deal)?
i.e. budget android, I guess
