Check the second hand options. I bought a brand new Pixel 10 Pro at the beginning of the year for 600€ from the second hand market from a guy who got it with his contract renewal for free. I think back then the regular Pixel was costing 500€, so I can imagine that you can find a Pixel 9 for 300-350€ in a very good condition.

Wow. You spend more on 2nd hand phones than I like to spend on brand new ones!
I am getting this expensive one just because I want GOS...
@Newhere Right now my little daughter is sitting next to me playing Toca Boca World on a phone running a modified Graphite OS. I am familiar with it. Honestly, it's a bit of a pain, and I'm normally happy enough with my ultra-budget ChiPhones. Which cost 1/4 as much and frankly do more.
Personally I'm with Scott McNeally:

Because of weak males like you and the one you follow we are where we are. You are supporters for all this,just by letting it be while YOU SEE IT! Disgusting MALEkind. And you are teaching your kids that. Growing obedient sheeps and teaching that they have no power. This is patriarchal system, where males are thinking about themselves, and in the end its them who paying tge price and half of it puts on weaker side- children and mothers. In matriarchal society you wouldn't have procreated 🤣
I usually stay at range 40-150eur "new" for me, but it mostly used one. I got old Nokia 3310 some years ago for hole 15 eur 😅 just in case scenario.
