Finally biting the bullet and want to purchase my first smartphone.
1. I plan on purchasing used from swappa. I want one for under $200.
2. I want one that has a good camera, not necessarily the best, but good quality.
3. I want a phone that has good multitasking capabilities, such as being able to view my calendar while on a phone call, switching between open apps, things of that nature.
4. I would like a phone that I can print from as well, although I know a lot of this relies on the printer as well.
5. I would also prefer a phone that will still receive software updates via the manufacturer, as I know some phones have been "phased out" so to speak. I remember reading about some android phones that are stuck using old, cruddy OS versions.
Ideally I'd prefer a phone that could be "unlocked" from network so that I can have my full choice of carriers to go to.
Any and all suggestions and advice is welcome as I really have very limited exposure to smartphones.
