I think the budget is between $250 and $300
My work phone is nice (~$700 new?), so I use that for camera when possible.
My personal phone is an entry level "free" phone. Through Google Fi, and for this one you pay up front, with bill credits for the next year (I think?) which covers the cost
so basically I give Google Fi a $200 loan where the "interest" is a cheap phone. No complaints, it's not premium but it works.
Personally I would look for Linage OS supported devices on second hand sites. I managed to get a Oneplus 8T for around 250€. Didn't had any problems and it still runs smooth
As much as you can afford. When it comes to technology you can't go for the budget options without truly feeling the consequences. That said, apple is extremely overpriced for the hardware, but don't get a cheap $150 android phone. I've heard the Pixel's are good I know Google yuck, but if I'm remembering correctly you can get one if their phones for ~$600
