    Wow what a bad list… The iPhone 8 is the best phone for under 500 in late 2019? I don’t think so lol

      Mackmiller974 just because you don’t like apple doesn’t mean the iPhone 8 it’s a bad phone.

    Thanks for the vid! In actually in the market now for a good phone around this price. I’m actually holding out to see if the Pixel 3 might drop a little bit around black Friday or Cyber Monday.

    It is a better choice to buy a secondhand flagship phone.

    I’ve owned the LG and the Moto and both are junk!!!
    Slow processors and poor screens make these two brands useless…
    Redmi (xaomi) have phones that are half the price that are available to the US through AliExpress or Geekbuying and are by far the best budget phones out there.
    How much for a 64MP camera from your list?? Or one with 6GB ram and over 128GB memory??
    Look at the redmis and get back with us.
    Not meant as a burn on you but please take a look at what a few of us are saying…
    Have a good one.

    Of all phones, you put iPhone #1. This list is a joke.

    I saw a brand new Samsung galaxy S10 plus for £499. But I’m a iPhone person.

    This phones for under $500 ? In what country!? Or is this on eBay? By the way the LG from vids and specs should be in #1 it clearly is way better in comparison according to other phone comparison youtubers made, if you are going to say best phones under 500bucks you shouldn’t rate them just mention 5 phones whit out you having a comparison battle your 1 to 5 list is not valid. Just cause the motoz has attachments that does not mean it’s better than lg g8 or should be in 4th place, why couldn’t be in 2nd or 3rd and not to mention every attachments are $199 each, I dont like vids like this they are misleading and makes me think they are just made for views????

    I have a different view to you, my choice is the Pixel 3A!

  21. sherri moquin

    The lg g8 thin q has air gestures just like the Google pixel 4

  22. JR Richards

    October 22, 2019 at 9:23 pm

    In air gestures on a phone is ridiculous

    Why is a lighting cable a downside especially if you own many other Apple products. 1st world problems?

  24. jagantatsme

    October 22, 2019 at 10:49 pm

    IMHO Pixel 3A should have made the list. Also, sub $500 is the category where people mostly prefer a phone with 3.5mm jack, at least as of now. So, Pixel 3 and iPhone 8 are not preferred much.

    I love my iPhone 8 Plus. No gimmicks just a super solid phone.
