I suspect the 5" or larger requirement is an issue, you will have more
options if you allow slightly smaller screens. For example the Motorola
Moto G is excluded by th 5" req, but would nearly fit in your price bracket.

Personally I think expecting "GPS accuracy" in a phone might be slightly
misguided in the first place and while GLONASS really helps with getting
a fast fix and general recption issues. Antenna and placement of the
device tend to be more important for that. 

Potentially using a GPS/Glonass bluetooth device together with a lower
spec phone would be an alternative.
