You should really edit that list, you write “Best” but many of them have really “be”low standard batteries, that won’t last a full day on normal use(checking emails either by wi-fi or DATA, a bit of gaming, listening to music, making videos or watching videos). And the Motorola is not 16GB, it’s only 8GB internal storage. And I wouldn’t really call the Nokia a smartphone, at best a Camera Phone.
But they are called budget smartphones you know and this are the choices for those who are in a budget. If battery is your concern there is Cloudfone Thrill Power N with 5k battery and also you can never describe one’s performance by just looking or reading on paper, hands on experience is always been a better way.
