Motorola Razr+ (2025) for $800: The Razr+ (2025) is identical to the Razr+ (2024), except it employs Motorola's titanium-reinforced hinge for improved durability.

I also don't recommend buying the Moto G 2025 or Moto G Power 2025 anymore since their successors are here.
Last year's Motorola Edge 2025 or the aforementioned Razr+ (2025) are the oldest I'd go, so don't consider anything else.
