What is cheap for some is unaffordable for others. Above we list the smartphones with a single device price of up to 300 euros. If that is too much, you can lower the price by selecting a lower maximum amount in the filter on the right. Of course, if your budget is just a little more, you can also increase it.
Always cheaper
Smartphones have become increasingly affordable in recent years. The novelty is gone and thanks to mass production, smartphones have become available to almost everyone. You can even get a smartphone starting at 100 euros, and very occasionally even below that.
Bloatware
It is particularly the models from China that are around the 100-euro mark. For example, models from Xiaomi, TCL and POCO. Wages are lower there and often certain apps are pre-installed. A manufacturer earns from this "bloatware. Often these apps can be removed afterwards but not always.
With a subscription even more advantageous
Is your phone subscription expiring? Then consider buying a smartphone in combination with a subscription. Then you don't have to pay the entire purchase amount at once but spread it out over the term of the subscription. In effect, a loan. And if that amount is less than €250, you will not receive a BKR registration and you do not have to disclose your income/expenses.
Watch the software policy
A smartphone should preferably last as long as possible. That applies not only to the outside, but also to the inside; the software. It needs to be maintained, especially when security problems reveal themselves. An update is then desirable.
Manufacturers of cheaper phones in particular do not like to promise long-term updates that require time and money. Before purchasing, pay attention to whether a manufacturer says anything about promised updates. A new Android version is nice, but at least two years of security updates is sometimes much needed.
Costly is expensive?
Cheap smartphones are often cheap in that they are made of plastic and that they are not very comprehensive. The former is not such a problem, the latter sometimes is. The simpler the hardware, such as the processor, the less fast. That makes this category not very suitable for gaming.
For everyday use, it's a completely different story. Calling, surfing the Internet, and sometimes shooting a picture is often no problem. Just make sure there is enough storage memory. Sometimes that is expandable with a memory card, then there is no problem. If not, consider a model with slightly more storage memory.
