Best Smartphone 2019 under $500

Welcome to the top 15 best-unlocked smartphones that you can buy right now for $500 and with what we've seen in the last few months it's becoming really hard for me to recommend spending more than this. 

So in 15th place, we've got the Vivo V15 Pro and for $399 you get not disturb contemporary design but a Super AMOLED display that fills the front of the phone a powerful 48 megapixel triple camera. Even a pretty good battery life and  the main caveat being a mid-range snapdragon 675 chip but at the same time it's kind of amazing that were at a stage where my main complaint with this mid-range phone is that it comes with a mid-range chip that's just how competitive this market is right now. It is great for the consumer.

Then at the 14th place, we've got Xiaomi Mi mix 3 which is one of the slickest phones and thanks to the Super AMOLED display on the front with its dual front cameras that generally being activated with what might be the most addictive sliding mechanism on a phone to date and donot fooled by the fact i.e. this is last year's phone. The SD 845 chipset inside of it is every bit as powerful as the mid-range chips released this year.

Number 13 is the LG G7 ThinQ and this is gonna seem like a really weird choice but LG smartphones have maybe the worst value retention but that also has a flipside whilst it made almost no sense to buy this phone at launch I've seen this thing brand new online now for 280 dollars - 270 pounds for some of the best hardware of 2018 with a good camera, a powerful speaker and a quad HD + display. The battery has 3000 mAh capacity.

The honor view 20 really set the bar high for 2019 it released right at the end of 2019 year with a flagship grade Kirin 980 chipset with a pretty high-end 48 MP camera. It was one of the only phone in the world with a punch hole display now that a whole bunch phones have come out with similar features it is not standed as the mid-tier king. But, it is still a very well rounded phone.

The Samsung Galaxy A70 which comes with a 4,500 mAh battery with the fastest charging. Samsung offers at 25W, it even has a 6.7 inch Super AMOLED display on the front. The main compromise here being a meant here at Snapdragon 675 chipset.

But for a lot of users that's great the POCO F1 is pretty good at everything performance camera and also battery even a year after its release are still comparable and so the fact that it's now even cheaper than it was before is a bonus. 

The honor 20 is great value for money which is actually one of the only situations where I recommend the standard version of a phone than pro version. The standard honor 20 which is powered by a flagship grade chip. It is one of the only phones with this kind of power that is compact enough to be used in one hand it has this side mounted fingerprint scanner which is really tough once you've got used to it with a quad camera setup although one of these is just for depth sensing.

All right next up is that the pixel 3a XL. I'm preface that's one in all the cleanest with easiest Android experiences and therefore the softwareis blissfully prefer to use. The camera captures amazing photos effortlessly. Now, the battery has 3,700mAh capacity that's already a fairly large cell. But it's more the actual fact that the phone's hardware puts little screen on the battery. 

Now go to the Honor mate 20. I really like that phone. This is sensible for lots of the identical reasons because the honor 20, you have thatflagship Kirin chipset inside and you've got got a correct triple camera with an ultra wide lens and a telephoto camera. The sort of design and materials that are generally reserved for the flagship phones. 

But, what I believe makes more sense if you go down that route of shopping for an old flagship phone rather than a less expensive newer one is that the S9 plus which software wise is incredibly kind of like what the Samsung A70 offers. But you cannot shake that feeling of this being a flagship as hostile a mid-range phone you get a flagship grade metal and glass body flagship great display and flagship grade. Dolby Atmos speakers so once you combine that together that's quite an toughcombination for a more modern mid-range phone to beat.

Okay top five and in fifth place the Red magic 3 completely blew me away if you're proud of having a phone that weighs over 200 grams and one with above-average sized bezels it doesn't get far better than this having the foremost powerful components is barely the beginning with this thing it's an enormous 6 - 6 5-inch 90 Hz AMOLED panel an improbable 5000 mAh battery which might pull through two days of medium use and a large amount of features to appeal to the gamers you have a customizable LED strip up here you have proper shoulder buttons and doubtless the good thing is that this phone features a actual dedicated good fan to forestall to extend in temperature. It also has more or less the identical a 48MP camera as most of its rivals but it's defeated a touch by a mediocre camera software and image processing Oneplus 7 and do not be fooled by the very fact that this phone has only one main camera and a second for depth it takes both amazing photos and amazing videos especially after a replacement update that's just dropped but that's not even the most effective thing about the phone the software it's running on oxygen OS is incredibly fluid it's light it's fast and now round the companies also added stereo speakers.

Okay then we've Xiaomi Mi 9 and folks are telling me that they found it cheaper but the most effective price I could find for this was 470 dollars and compared to the Oneplus 7 you are doing miss out on oxygen OS which I personally like better to charlize me why skin but it's cheaper while being even as powerful and also comes with a more versatile triple camera setup at the identical time though whilst it really may be a great phone it doesn't make much sense to shop for the Mi 9.

Without delay because we're phone all come to very shortly any in second place is that the Asus Zenfone 6 and this phone isn't what it initially seems on first impression you see this rotating camera setup anything okay this can be great one more one among those phones that's really interesting to appear at but that i would not actually spend my money on but right here Asus possesses a tool that walks everywhere that notion the battery life is phenomenal with a mega 5000 mAh cell the UI is snappy and without bloatware in which camera to take amazing photos and videos on not just the rear by the front. 

Then in first place and you would possibly have seen this coming is that the Redmi k 20 pro or the Xiaomi Mi 90 they're both basically rebranded versions of the identical phone and in almost every way this can be Xiaomi Mi 9 but better it's cheaper contains a much larger battery and a display that fills the entire front of the phone no notches because of this motorized pop-up camera which also looks pretty slick because of the built-in LEDs ok in order that is that the $500 mark covered.
