In a market flooded with all sorts of mobile devices, making a choice can be a major headache.
If you’re facing a budget constraint, it gets harder getting that smartphone you really want. There are different Android devices in the market and like you probably know already, the best ones don’t come cheap.
You should be ready to cough out a very large amount to get a high-end smartphone with impressive specifications from a trusted brand like HTC or Samsung.
If you’re looking for a low-end Android smartphone, there are great devices you can get with about ₦15,000, some are even being sold for less than ₦10,000. I think it’s important to
emphasize that devices within this price range may not run the latest Android OS version, play the latest release of FIFA or respond to touch as smoothly as their high-end counterparts but a lot of them offer real value despite being very cheap.
