Apple still sells the 4s, which has half the RAM and a slower CPU. And I wouldn't call the 4s a low-end phone.

Basically, the days when a <$200 Android was painful to use (click, wait for the UI to figure out what you just did) are past.

i just recently tried an Android device with a 1Ghz Dual Core, 800x480 4inch screen and Android 4.1 and it was quite painful to use. Not very responsive, scrolling lagged on the browser or content heavy apps like facebook/instagram to the point that it was really annoying. Seems to be more of an Android problem though, as a similarly priced and specced Windows Phone didn't have these problems.

I can't for the life of me figure out why you were downvoted for this comment.
