Top 10 Smartphones under 100$
10) ZTE Zmax 2
If you need performance on a budget, the ZTE Zmax 2 may be the phone for you. The 5.5-inch smartphone costs just $99, and features 4G LTE connectivity, a 1.2GHz processor, 2GB of RAM, and 16GB of internal memory. It also includes mobile hotspot functionality, and runs Android 5.1 Lollipop. CNET reports that the ZTE Zmax 2 offers a big screen and reliable call quality that are both impressive for the price tag, though the device is heavy and the performance of its camera is inconsistent. However, the device is still a capable phone if you’re on a tight budget.
9) Nokia Lumia 635
If you prefer Windows to Android, then consider the Nokia Lumia 635, which runs Windows 8.1. The device starts at just $75, which gets you LTE connectivity, a 4.5-inch Gorilla Glass 3 screen, a quad-core 1.2GHz processor, 8GB of memory, and 1GB of RAM. The device also features a microSD card slot, which you can use to expand the phone’s storage by up to 128GB. PCMag reported back when the phone was introduced that the Lumia 635 was an “amazing value for the money.” That’s perhaps a little less true these days considering the array of inexpensive but competitive smartphones on the market, but it’s still a solid phone for Windows fans who don’t want to spend enough for a pricier phone that runs Windows 10 instead of an older version of the OS.
8) Motorola Moto E
The second-generation Motorola Moto E is a 4G-capable phone with 1GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage, and a microSD card slot compatible with microSD cards up to 32GB. It runs Android 5.0 Lollipop, has a 2,390 mAh battery, and dual-SIM support. Wirecutter named the 2015 Motorola Moto E the “cheapest acceptable option” for users looking for a budget-friendly Android phone. The publication noted that this phone manages to avoid many of the pitfalls that make other cheap phones aggravating to use; the software isn’t too slow, the 4.5-inch size enables easy one-handed use, and while the display is relatively low-resolution at 960×540, it’s bright and power-efficient.
7) Lenovo Golden Warrior S8
The Lenovo Golden Warrior S8, which starts at $100, has some impressive specs for such an inexpensive phone. That includes an octa-core 1.4GHz processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of memory, a 13MP rear-facing camera, and a 5MP front-facing camera. The Golden Warrior S8 runs Android 4.2, has a 5.3-inch screen with 1280 x 720 resolution, and has dual-SIM support. However, there’s no LTE connectivity, and the battery is 2,000mAh, which may mean shorter battery life than some of our other top picks. As Android Headlines reported before the device was officially launched, the Golden Warrior S8 is a good-looking device that won’t break the bank
6) LG G Stylo
If you’re searching for an affordable smartphone with a large screen, the $99 LG G Stylo may be for you. The device features a 5.7-inch screen with 1280 x 720 resolution, and it’s powered by a 1.2GHz processor and 1GB of RAM, and the G Stylo runs Android 5.0 Lollipop and is 4G LTE-capable. It’s also equipped with 8GB of internal storage (which is expandable up to 32GB with a microSD card) and an 8MP rear-facing camera. CNET notes that the device is a strong contender among affordable phablets, and includes a stylus that’s sturdy and comfortable to write with, plus a variety of signature LG features like QuickMemo+, KnockOn, and KnockCode.
5) Huawei Snap To
If you’re looking for an unlocked LTE phone, the Huawei SnapTo is a great device to consider. Starting at just $92, the SnapTo has a quad-core 1.2GHz processor, and a 5-inch 1280x 720 resolution screen. It features 8GB of internal memory and a microSD card slot that can support up to 32GB of extra storage, plus 1GB of RAM, a 5MP rear-facing camera, and a 2MP front-facing camera. PCMag notes that while the SnapTo is a great value for an unlocked LTE phone, its performance is very entry-level. It’s also worth noting that the SnapTO runs an older, heavily-skinned version of Android (4.4 KitKat with Huawei’s Emotion UI v2.3.
4) HTC Desire 510
3) Cubot Z100
The Cubot Z100 is a solid smartphone for its $100 price tag. The 5-inch Z100 features 4G connectivity, dual-SIM support, a quad-core 1.0GHz processor, a 2,450mAh battery, 1GB of RAM, and 16GB of internal storage (which is upgradeable up to 32GB). Impressively, the phone also features an 8MP front-facing camera and a 13MP rear-facing camera. Cubot is one of the many Chinese smartphone manufacturers offering decent phones at low prices, and the Z100’s display features a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels, plus 2.5D curved glass, which means that the device features the curved edge that you’re more likely to see on pricy flagship phones than on affordable devices. Even better? The phone runs Android 5.1.
2) BLU Studio C
BLU may not be a household name yet, but that’s no reason to skip the BLU Studio C if you want a phone that runs Android Lollipop without a hefty price tag. This 5-inch, 4G-capable phone starts at $95, and is powered by a 1.3 GHz quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of memory, and a 2,800mAh battery. Android Headlines notes that BLU offers “cheap, unlocked Android phones that are actually pretty good.” That’s especially true of the Studio C’s camera system, which integrates a Sony IMX179 Sensor, a Largan lens with a maximum aperture of f/2.2, and a 5MP front-facing camera with a Largan lens and 85-degree angle of view.
The Acer Liquid Z410 starts at $99 and is a good budget phone, with LTE support, a quad-core 1.3GHz processor, and an impressive 2GB of RAM (which isn’t common among sub-$100 phones). The phone features a 4.5-inch screen with 854 x 480 resolution, and it has 16GB of memory, plus dual SIM card slots, a 2,000mAh replaceable battery, a 5MP rear-facing camera, and a 2MP front-facing camera. As Toms Hardware pointed out last summer, the Liquid Z410 runs Android 4.4.4 KitKat, which is a significant drawback for users who would prefer a more updated version of the software, but may not bother those who simply want an affordable phone that will work.
