    Help with budget phone

    Hi there! I'm looking for a budget phone to suit a teenage girl, that could be used in Australia. Hopefully Samsung as the Mrs and I have Galaxy S4's, but not essential. I thought about the Samsung J1, but read some reviews and I think I'll steer clear. Any thoughts? TIA!
