Are you about to get a smartphone for yourself? or maybe its for a friend or a loved one but you’re on a budget. When purchasing items or anything else for that matter, everyone wants their money’s worth and more. If you are a smartphone enthusiast or you’re tech savvy, you can guess or know the exact specifications a phone within a particular price range should posses.
You cant have a budget of ₦55,000 (a little above $100) and expect a smartphone with lets say, 8gb ram, now that’s currently not just possible.
Disclaimer- The phones displayed below are carefully selected by me and can be found on online stores like Jumia, Konga and your local phone store nearby. That being said, this list of phones are strictly opinionated and there could be more out there we may not have come across yet. All phones will be below ₦55,000 and have reasonable specs with at least 2gb ram. Also know that some phone brands are more expensive than others even if they have the same specifications. We know you want the best, so we’ll try to find phones with the best specs and mostly list those using the 4G network.
