Hi, I'm looking for a good Android phone to replace my (lived long past it's time) Huawei Mytouch Q. It needs to be under 100$ (the cheaper the better, but my max is 100$), and preferable available from Amazon (to ship to the West Coast, US)
I don't need flashy features like a thumbprint reader, or anything like that. I want power.
Preferably dual or quad core 1.3ghz+ processor (I know, difficulty on a budget, but I've seen a few)
The more ram the better, but at least 1 gb.
Storage won't really be a problem (as I intend to root it and use my 32 gb microSD card), but again, the more the better.
NEEDS to be rootable, and be popular enough that there is actually support for it (there were all of 3 forums I found on rooting my old phone)
Should have GPS, Bluetooth, and WiFi, and be able to work with TMobile.
If it could have a physical, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, that'd be fantastic, but if it doesn't, then I'd like it to have cases which at that (if you don't know what I mean, then something like this)
And above all, it must have Android 4.4, and be new enough that it will still receive updates. (EG: 5.0 when it comes out soon)
The longer the battery life, the better, as well. But, then again, coming from my phone (5-6 hour battery life while not doing anything), anything will be an upgrade
Also, something that'd be awesome for it to have, but not necessary, is an IR blaster, like the GS5. Not a deal breaker, but it'd be a neat feature.
Now, I know i'm asking for a lot here, and I'm sorry if this is too much.
Thanks for your suggestions!
