Anyone know off hand which compatible devices would be at the lower end of the price range?  I am ususally pretty good at going through android specs finding prices etc, but perhaps someone knows a good model or two to check out.  Also any notable bang-for-the-buck devices would be interesting.  (used/ebay probably ok too).  I think the potential of this tool and the other qualcomm tools will make it worth my while to grab another device :)
 
The unity game I am testing at the moment is using GLES 2.0 / 3.0
 
 
 
(I understand if reccomending devices is something a qualcomm employee needs to stay out of.  Also appoligies if that question doesn't fit the terms of this forum)

Hi Andrew,

We typically recommend Nexus/Pixel phones as they tend to have the most updated drivers for debugging and performance profiling. If you plan on doing any VR related development in the future I would strongly suggest a Pixel since it is Daydream enabled. Otherwise Nexus 5X could be a good candidate for your purposes I think. Hope that helps!

Carlos
