Need a better camera than my phone

[anna7602]

I don't pretend to take anything that looks fancy, but I want better quality/resolution than I get with my phone. I used to have a Canon Power Shot ( Maybe a slightly different name) that took ok pictures but still not fantastic. 

Anyone have a reco for something that's fairly easy to use but good quality? I feel inspired to search out cyber Monday deals or just ask for it for my upcoming birthday.

There are a few tiers of Nikon Coolpix that are great cameras.

I bought a refurbished canon rebel 3ti from canon. I love it. It works great and was around $300 for everything. Canon warranties the camera for a year. You can buy a longer warranty.

Are you looking for something small or that will work well inside/with kids/in low light?

Work well with kids, mostly.

We have a DSLR which I love (Canon T3) and is relatively easy to use for non-photographers. But it is certainly no replacement for a small point and shoot camera if you don't like to use your phone for that purpose. We've had a few incarnations of the Canon Powershot Elphs and been happy with all of them.
