Budget Friendly Phones You Must Have

Top-tier phones have exorbitant prices from big international brands. Fortunately, there are still mid-range phones that perform admirably.

Smartphones are now considered essential due to their wide range of capabilities. This device is necessary for work, business, leisure, and communication. However, some limitations imply that not everybody can afford it, which is the price.

Top-tier phones have exorbitant prices from big international brands. Fortunately, there are still mid-range phones that perform admirably at the best prices without breaking the bank.

If you’re wondering which brand provides the best value for your money, we’ve compiled a list of the top five affordable phones. This list includes the features of the phones and why purchasing them is all worth it.

1. Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro

Budget-Friendly Phones You Must Have

The Poco X3 Pro isn’t perfect. The big battery makes it bulky, the cameras could be better and MIUI 12 leaves much to be desired, but they don’t stop this phone from being an outrageously good budget offering.

In contrast, the phone boasts a myriad of strengths; strong specs leading to exceptional performance, a beautiful display and absolutely fantastic battery life.

The fact that you can get all of that for as little as Xiaomi is asking is almost unbelievable

ProsCons
Phenomenal performanceBig and bulky
Big 120Hz displayNo 5G
Long-lasting batteryAverage camera

2. Samsung Galaxy A13

Samsung’s budget Galaxy A13 can’t match similarly priced rivals when it comes to pure performance, but it makes up for it with Samsung’s winning OneUI Android skin, and a promise to receive two full Android version software updates and four years of security patches – giving this phone a longevity that few cheap handsets can match.

It looks slick too, with a simple, understated design that we prefer to many of the alternatives, and the camera’s pretty good too.

ProsCons
Understated designPoor performance
Decent main cameraNo 5G
Long-term software supportSlow charging

3. Oppo A54 5G

Budget-Friendly Phones You Must Have

The Oppo A54 5G is a budget handset the manages to excel in multiple areas – with an attractive design, 5G, a 48Mp quad-camera and a massive 5000mAh battery that outshines even some of the most expensive phones on the market. 

It’s not without faults, of course. Though the battery life is excellent, 10W charging is glacial in this day and age. Though the night mode on the camera is stellar, the user-experience of taking photos really needs refining to be simpler and cleaner.

For the price point, however, you’re getting a solid camera phone that feels high-end and a device that won’t die on you quickly.

ProsCons
Great longevityMiddling performance
Sharp 90Hz displayInconsistent fingerprint reader
Affordable 5GSlow charging

4. Motorola Moto E7i Power

Once you recognise just how cheap the Moto E7i Power is, it’s hard not to be impressed by everything you’re getting.

Performance – an area cheap phones so often cut corners on – is surprisingly great despite what the benchmarks tell you. There was no need for Motorola to change what was already great software, while the modern design does a good job of imitating more expensive handsets.

The cameras are a bit hit-and-miss, but if you’re prepared to be patient, it will pleasantly surprise you.

ProsCons
Ultra affordableNo USB-C
Good battery lifeLacklustre camera
Nice design

5. Galaxy A32 5G

Budget-Friendly Phones You Must Have

With its surprisingly low price, Samsung represents a 5G phone. Galaxy A32 5g is one of the best deals on this list. If you have a limited financial capacity but want a phone with good cameras, the Galaxy A32 5G is a good option.

The A32 is not a tiny phone, thanks to its large 6.5-inch screen. It does, however, have a 5,000 mAh battery— nearly 12 hours with the adaptive refresh rate empowered. The Galaxy A32 will also outlast many other low-cost choices, with Samsung pledging three years of Android updates and four years of security fixes.

ProsCons
Very low priceSubpar HD+ display
Good battery lifeBulky
90Hz refresh rateMediocre performance

The Bottom Line

Technically, each of our top five picks for the best smartphones at an attractive cost is a winning representative from a different international brand. The handsets are outstanding in quality, pricing, dependability, efficiency, and design. 

We hope you had an excellent opportunity to choose the budgeted gadget that best suited your needs.
