What phone should I get when going with Public Mobile

Pirarius

Hi!

 

My GF is currently with Koodo and will be buying a new phone. She wants to go with Public Mobile with this new phone. From what I understand, she just needs to buy an unlocked phone (on Ebay, or Best Buy, or something like that) get the SIM card from Public Mobile, stick it in and it will work. But she really doesn't know what phone to get. So I would like some precise and concise suggestions, considering her needs:

 

- Android.

- Will work for sure with Public Mobile.

- Not too pricey (let's say around 400$ CAD or less).

- Not too big (fits in the pocket and in the palm of the hand).

- Works fast enough for smooth use of Web, mails, music, videos (no gaming).

- Has a good camera.

- Has very limited bloatware.

- Is easy to use.

- Is reasonnably sturdy.

- From a reliable brand.

- Recent (2019).

 

I don't know much about cell phones (don't have one, don't want one), so I don't need a complicated answer with technical details. Just specific phones you think would be good for her, and why you think it fits in these criterias.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!
