Unlocked phones are all about freedom. With unclicked devices, users have the advantage of not being bound to a certain carrier and their rates and offers. What’s more, if you want to jump ship, you can easily do so and choose the network of your liking without having to pay off hundreds of dollars in termination fees to your provider. Here are the best unlocked smartphones of 2020 available in the country.
Google Pixel 3a
For a price of $479, great OLED display, long battery life, and a powerful camera, the Google Pixel 3a is the best unlocked phone overall. Google’s least-expensive Pixel phone can be bought unlocked from Google’s online store and has a fantastic life lasting nearly 12 hours. Google’s value proposition is hard to beat even with its lesser bright OLED display and lesser-than-impressive processor speed.
Moto G7 Power
For a price of $249 and an epic battery life, the Moto G7 power is a bargain hunter’s dream. It has a 3GB RAM, 32GB of storage, an 8MP front and a 12MP back camera, a Snapdragon 632 processor, and a 6.2-inch LCD screen. The Moto G7 Power has the capability to work on any network in the country, including CDMA and GSM-based ones. A solid performance and an incredible battery life seal the deal.
Samsung Galaxy A50
The Samsung Galaxy A50 makes for a great unlocked phone under $350 for the measly, measly price of $179. The phone has a 4GB RAM, 64GB of storage, three cameras – a 25MP main one, an 8 MP wide-angle one, and a 5 MP depth one, an Exynos 9610 processor, and a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen. In fact, this undercuts the Pixel 3a by $50. Its display happens to be the finest we’ve seen till now, and it feels like and runs like a flagship. What’s more, Samsung has thoughtfully included a microSD slot inside the Galaxy A50, which means that one will never, ever run out of space. The phone is unlocked as well, available across the big 4 carriers in the country. So, what more do you need?
