For versatility and simplicity (as well as sounding damn good), the Nord Lead A1 may be worth considering.

That was on my radar for a long time
What do you mean with melodies? Simple sounds? Lead sounds?
No synth does melodies. You do the melodies… or a sequencer with some kind of pattern generation…

How about a take five. As opposed to a mono synth that you can trick into paraphony, it’d also do poly stuff, but sounds to me like it might do great leads as well

Lead sounds. Just a couple of hook lines.
Still gave him a heart though

The UDO then, but only if you record melodies with it and share them with us.

budget friendly option:
Korg minilogue (I just got one)
Does nice plucky sounds, doesn’t sound too harsh. Knob per function. Polyphonic (which I think is still often necessary for melodies). Just enough option too keep you interested, but not enough to be boring.
