Cheapest smartphone with 4G

Today, every person has the opportunity to stay in touch almost all day and night. Fortunately, portable devices have appeared, with which you can access the Internet anywhere: check social networks, mail, go to the site and find out the information you are interested in.

Since recently (after the appearance of the fourth generation connection in Russia), it is also possible to exchange large amounts of information at high speed. This provides an LTE connection. Only he has some features.

About what devices support the ability to connect to high-speed networks, we'll talk more about this article. In parallel, we will try to find the cheapest smartphone with 4G, which is only present on the market.

Limited list of gadgets

So, first of all, note that not all devices can work with 4G / LTE. The reason for this is the features of the module, which can receive a signal at this frequency. If it is not available, the phone will not be able to connect to the Network of this protocol, which means it will not be able to support the high speed of file sharing.

Just in practice, it turned out that the support for interaction with LTE networks only have expensive, top gadgets of a higher class. Budget models of this module, as a rule, do not - developers simply save on this option. And not always cheap models need the same 4G: their customers rarely use this expensive connection. It is much cheaper to purchase a package with 3G Internet, which will be slow, but more affordable.

Therefore, finding a cheap smartphone with 4G is not so easy. "Flagships" can not be available, since they are the most powerful and functional phones in the line. And as for more accessible, then we will pay more attention to them.

Chinese phones

Find a cheap smartphone with 4G is very simple among the most "stuffed" devices coming from China. Such gadgets, as we know, do not have a particular stability of work: they can "buggy", have poor build quality, but they have the widest functionality. For examples, it is not necessary to go far.

Landvo L200G

Take at least this model of the device. This is quite an inexpensive smartphone with 4G and a good battery, which will be an excellent assistant in the work or in the event that you just need a second smartphone. The name of its manufacturer, of course, we also did not hear, but the unknown brand is not an automatic "stigma" of its poor quality. The device has only 1 SIM-module, 8-megapixel camera and at the same time has a battery of 2000 mAh. The price of the gadget does not reach $ 100. Of course, there is a preinstalled module for working in the LTE network.

Regarding the performance and stability of the device, there is nothing to say, since the smartphone did not become as popular as the manufacturers expected, and there are very few reviews about it.

Elephone G2

This is another Chinese "kid" with LTE. Oh, you probably heard about this manufacturer. As customers say, the smartphone costs also not more than $ 100, and it likewise presents the opportunity to work in the networks of the fourth generation.

In addition, we have the cheapest smartphone with 4G and IPS (the latter characteristic refers to the technology of displaying pictures on the screen). It turns out that this is an interesting device with a low price, which can easily be turned into a gadget for high-speed surfing, watching movies or serials online and so on.

Cubot X12

The brand under which this smartphone comes out is also in possession of the Chinese manufacturer. The device is also equipped with an LTE module, so we have the same cheap smartphone with 4G, as well as the gadgets described above. The cost of it, by the way, also does not exceed $ 100. Even its filling is typical for inexpensive devices from the Middle Kingdom. Again, we can not vouch for the stable operation of the device.

InFocus M512

The manufacturer, which produces the original iPhone, is simultaneously developing other models. One of them is InFocus.

As you may have guessed, this is also a Chinese phone with the ability to connect to high-speed Internet. The cost is slightly higher, because this is not the cheapest smartphone with 4G (about 120 dollars). But, having got it, the buyer receives also high quality of assemblage (that also it is quite good for the Chinese product).

Jiayu F2

This device is even more expensive than those described above. But believe me, this smartphone significantly bypasses its capabilities of these models, having a price tag of only 10 thousand rubles.

The advantage of it is that it not only supports the work in the 4G-network, but also boasts a productive processor that provides stable and uninterrupted operation. Do not forget the developers and a capacious battery (2250 mAh), and the 4-core "heart" of the smartphone. By the way, the device has not been deprived of the design either.

Ulephone Be Pro

Another cooler device from a little-known manufacturer Ulephone. This is a full-fledged modern phone with an excellent IPS-screen and an acceptable price tag - 12 thousand rubles. This inexpensive smartphone with 4G and a good camera has all the features of a higher-class device (for example, due to a powerful battery - 2600 mAh). What to say about the colorful display, built on a matrix from LG - the advanced manufacturer of equipment from Korea?

The Chinese also tried to look at the appearance of the device, collecting it from glass and metal in the manner of some G2 or other "flagship" ... It looks really cool, although this is a relatively cheap smartphone with a 4G (LTE module).

Devices from operators

From the "Chinese" let's move on to another interesting category of phones - smartphones that are offered under the brand of one of the mobile operators. As we all know, such gadgets are often sold at a lower cost due to a binding to a single provider.

"Beeline Pro"

Take at least an apparatus from the "yellow-black" operator (from the name it is clear what kind of speech it is). It was offered at a price of 4,990 rubles (at least at the time of launch) and had quite modest characteristics (as for a smartphone): a screen with a resolution of 480 x 854 inches, a 2 megapixel camera. This is obviously an inexpensive smartphone with 4G and a powerful battery (given the low consumption of its charge, 2200 mAh - this is really a lot).

One minus - this model is exclusively with the package from Beeline, so you must choose for yourself any of the tariff plans of this operator and order it in order to take advantage of this phone.

MTS-978

Another interesting device is the model 978 from MTS. It costs only 6700 rubles, but it also has the capabilities of a modest smartphone and, of course, has support for working in LTE format.

The device is equipped with an 8-megapixel camera, an IPS-based screen with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels, a 1.4 GHz processor. The battery here has a capacity of 2000 mAh, which is enough to work for two days with an average level of battery charge. In general, a good solution, again with a binding to the mobile provider operator.

If you want, you can also select models from other operators of interest to you. The main question is whether you will be satisfied with the functionality that such a cheap smartphone with 4G can show. Yes, there will be support for high-speed mobile Internet, but at the same time, the quality of video clips, opportunities for working with games, performance, image from the camera - all this will not be ideal. Therefore, you should probably hold the device in your hands, and even better - ask the acquaintances or colleagues who have one, how easy it is to interact with him, whether the phone is comfortable or not.

Inexpensive smartphones from advanced developers

Finally, in addition to Chinese models and devices produced under the brand of operators (which also, by the way, belong to Chinese devices with their own characteristics), we can also call "ordinary" companies for us supplying different categories of smartphones - as "budget employees" with cut-down Functional, and full-fledged "flagships."

Samsung Galaxy Core LTE

Here, the first to mind is the Korean concern with its numerous Galaxy devices of different price groups and technical characteristics. As for the latter, Core is not far ahead of its Chinese "colleagues" in this respect - there is only 1 GB of RAM, a TFT display (!) With a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels, a 5 megapixel camera. But the smartphone is supported by 4G. With a price tag of 10 thousand rubles, the model is included in the category "cheap smartphones with support for 4G."

Sony Xperia E3

With a fairly productive processor from Qualcomm, the device has very good performance in terms of opportunities to work with bulky applications: games, high quality videos and so on. There is also a 5 MP camera installed and, of course, there is a LTE module.

The design of the device is uncomplicated, but rather sympathetic, captivates with its simplicity. For 8 thousand rubles, you get an excellent model for performing a variety of tasks.

Acer Liquid E600

If you are looking for an inexpensive smartphone with 4G and two SIM cards, you can pay attention to the brainchild of the Taiwanese company Acer, namely - the model indicated in the header. Here, as on the Xperia E3, there is a processor that produces a clock speed at 1.2 GHz. The model is assembled at a high level, has a powerful 8-megapixel camera and a "tasty" cost - 7100 rubles (as for the version with LTE support).

Nokia Lumia 636

As you can see, in our rating all devices were presented on the Android operating system. The model with iOS, of course, can not be placed here, since this is clearly not a budget version of the device. In this case, do not forget about the phones with Windows Phone. This platform is also beginning to gain popularity among users of mobile devices.

The device does not have anything unusual compared to its "competitors", presented above, both in terms of technical parameters and in terms of price. Unless, it is possible to tell, that other OS here is used, which will please fans of WP. It is more stable than Android, and given the presence of the LTE-module, the device can become an attractive solution for many users.

conclusions

So, as we see, to find an inexpensive and functional smartphone that would support the option of working in the format of networks of the fourth generation is not difficult at all. Of course, some of the models presented in our list will become obsolete at the time you read this article, but it's not scary! Manufacturers will replace the device in the model line with a new similar device.

As for prices, in many cases they are quite affordable for a wide range of users. Therefore, if you live in an area where LTE-format communication is distributed at the proper level and you agree to pay the cost of tariffs for this connection, you can safely talk about acquiring such a gadget for further work with it.
