My mother in law is looking to buy her husband an Android phone and she wants to spend about R2000, any suggestions?
 
Best option is to go on contract and get a higer end one. For example: I'm on CellC Business for around R180 a month and I got a Galaxy Note with 500mb data/m. You will want Either a Note (Giant screen, big and bright) or a Nexus (Android 4.0). Everything is poultry in comparison (well, that is my opinion :p) :)

I would recommend any HTC Android phone. Their build quality is excellent and Sense is so good that I never needed to add 3rd party keyboards, sms or email apps etc.

Also, poultry = chickens, ducks, geese etc (domesticated birds that are used for eggs, feathers or meat)
You meant paltry :)

I can recommend the Motorola MB525 which you can get for about R3700 from Vodacom. It's much cheaper on contract (R89pm x 24 = R2136).

Other cheaper Android phones includes The Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 or the Samsung Galaxy Gio S5660. I agree with agentrfr, the cheapest route would be to get the phone on contract. Otherwise, your mother in law can also consider getting one second hand.

Does this deal still exist?

*Edit - This deal is R379p/m, not R180.
