Even while the iPhone 13 mini costs more than the majority of the other options on this list. It’s perhaps the best smartphone overall for kids, especially teenagers. With a 5.4-inch display and the same top performance as the larger iPhone 13, it is much better than other affordable smartphones. Therefore, this iPhone is a good option to think about if you’re seeking for a long-term phone that your kid may dependably use for years to come.

In addition, Apple provides the Apple Arcade membership service, which offers a huge selection of family-friendly games. Naturally, the iPhone 13 mini features some of the greatest cameras ever placed on an iPhone, in addition to being 5G ready. In addition, the Screen Time function, which allows parents to set content and privacy limits and view their child’s daily iPhone usage time, is supported by every current iPhone.

In addition, it features a 4.7-inch screen that is rather tiny for 2022, is slim and light (144 grams).

The 6.5-inch screen on this Samsung smartphone is a respectable size for viewing videos and playing light games, and it has a quad camera setup. For creating artistic images, the latter comprises wide-angle and macro cameras.

It performs less smoothly than you might expect from a phone in this budget segment. But it has a sizable battery that lasts more than 11 hours of continuous YouTube watching on a single charge. The A21s is a viable option if a big screen and affordability are the requirements.

OnePlus Nord 2

The beautiful 6.4-inch AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate of the OnePlus Nord 2 is arguably its most alluring feature. A better experience is provided by the smoother-looking games and films due to the high refresh rate.

Despite what its mid-range pricing would imply, the Nord is also a quick performer and can handle the newest mobile games effectively. The absence of a headphone jack and average sound speaker are drawbacks. But altogether, this Android phone is a wonderful deal.

The Moto G8 Power’s battery life is excellent. In addition, its widescreen 6.4-inch display makes it a reliable content consumption device. It has a huge 5000 mAh battery yet weighs only 197 grams and still has a headphone jack. Although it probably won’t be able to play the more demanding games at anything more than low settings.
