   How far can you throw it?  There are a lot of decent smartphones with   
   decent cameras for under $150.  My 'refurbished' (it looks perfect)   
   Pixel 2 with 128GB of memory was $114 and I'm really happy with it.   
   Hubby and son got the same phones but with only 64GB of memory for $84.   
     These are GSM phones, unfortunately -- I don't think Verizon can use   
   GSM.  Crap.
