Well, with a $100 androy phone you will find that it is more than likely is not Talkback comparable, because of whatever overlay that they have on top of Google Stock Androy, and more than likely will stop at Androy 4.22, which is a crap Androy OS when come to accessibility. Yes, you can get it work, but is that really worth it, that is another issue. Of course, one could argue that it only cost $100, as compare to $1000 for an upgrade. If you have that mind set, go ahead, nothing stopping you on switching over to Androy. Just bare in mind, whatever phone you choose to get for Androy platform, make sure you get Androy 4.3 and above. The best entry and low end level phone for Google Stock Androy is Moto G or Moto E, which is between $200 and $350 (depending on specific model.
In another word, Androy is good to see, good to touch, is great as a secondary phone even. But, not all Androy phones are accessible for the blind. That is the bottom line of the Androy OS.
