If you're in the mood for trying something new, another Samsung phone brings the third OS so far. The Ace Style has an LTE-enabled version too, if you need it and most importantly, can afford it as some carriers are charging a premium on your monthly bill for accessing their LTE network.
The upshot is a 5MP/720p camera on the back and a basic selfie camera. The Samsung Galaxy Ace Style also has a 4" 480 x 800px screen and runs Android 4.4 KitKat on a dual-core processor with the less-than-ideal 512MB RAM. Some of those can be removed for an extra bill, so we'd recommend against sticking to arbitrary price caps and shopping by features instead. Getting a phone for €50 sounds great if you're on a very tight budget or just need a backup phone, but you'll have to live with a number of compromises. You can also have this phone in a dual-SIM configuration, available as the Liquid Z200 Duo. Also, the 2MP camera is rather basic.Ī phone like the Liquid Z200 may not be very impressive but it gets your foot in the door to mobile Internet and a wide selection of great Android apps.
The dual-core CPU should keep things snappy though 512MB RAM limits multitasking capabilities. Mozilla's platform looks like a viable option if you're on a budget and value open software.Ĭoming close to the psychological limit of €50, the Acer Liquid Z200 is a compact Android 4.4 KitKat phone a 4" 480 x 800px screen. The 512MB RAM and 4GB of storage won't have you confusing this for a mid-ranger, but Firefox OS has been designed to support even less RAM. The IPS screen should offer better viewing angles than basic TFTs too, so keep an eye out for it. The Fire E also brings a VGA selfie camera and an LED flash, which are not a given on device in this price range. We know better to blindly trust specs, but the competition in this price range averages 5MP/480p. The 1080p video is by far the most impressive, but the next FullHD shooter on the list is double the price. We found it at just over €50 for which you get a 4.5" IPS screen with 540 x 960px resolution, a 5MP camera with 1080p video capture and a dual-core 1.2GHz processor. The Alcatel Fire E comes as living proof, it's a Firefox OS phone.
Also, the Under €100 category has the biggest diversity of OSes. New brands have emerged that offer relatively high specs on a tight budget. Some years ago Android conquered the low end of the market, but now it's getting pushed out or at least phones from well-known brands are.
