Interestingly, a handful of companies that sell phones in the U.S. keep some devices exclusive to other markets. Some of the phones that Americans can&#8217;t buy offer solid specs and are sold at competitive prices that would make stateside fans of Google, OnePlus, Samsung, and other Android manufacturers envious.<\/p>\n<p>These five phones are solid Android devices that Americans wish they could get their hands on. To compile this list, we searched for Android phones that aren&#8217;t officially sold in the U.S. but offer solid specs and are sold at a good price.
