We now know that 3G is is already here and in fact few companies have even introduced their packages to the public, but to get the full taste of 3G, you must have a 3G phone in the first place.
The following are the phones which are considerably cheap and offer a huge bang for your hard-earned bucks.
To keep the list fresh, we’ve tried to add as new phones as possible, although, there are a few exceptions such as the Xperia L.
Moto E
Need we say anything more? Moto E is hands down the best starter-range smartphone on the market. The experience, the features and the price make this phone a must have.
You get a 4.3” qHD display to start with, running Android 4.4.2. Hardware includes the respectable Snapdragon 200, 1 GB RAM and 4 GB internal storage (also expandable) but the customizations of the OS won’t make you feel that you’re missing out on something.
The camera is horrendous, and there’s only one of it, but at a price of just 100 Euros, this deal is hard to say no to.
Moto G
And when it comes to mid-range phones, nothing is possibly better than the Moto G. Starting at just about 20,000 PKR (for single SIM Model), the Moto G is a phone definitely worthy of attention.
A 4.5” 720p screen displays Android OS, which just like the Moto E is hardly customized.
Underneath, you’ll get a Snapdragon 400 processor, 1 GB RAM and 8 GB storage. The storage isn’t expandable but there’s a new version with 4G and microSD slot, though, it will cost much more.
Did we mention there is a dual-sim version too? The Moto G is definitely one of the best phones to come out in the last six months.
Lumia 525
To leave an entry-level Windows Phone out of this list will be stupid. While Microsoft’s platform is not quite as mature as Android, all credit to Nokia for churning out so many respectable budget Windows Phones.
The Lumia 525 has a 4” display with modest resolution, as well as a dual-core Qualcomm MSM8227 processor with 1 GB RAM.
A 5 megapixel camera finishes the deal, which will set you back by Rs. 18,000.
Nokia XL
I’ve written about the Nokia X quite extensively and while I liked it, its RAM issues certainly hurt the experience quite a bit. The Nokia XL has more RAM and a larger 5” display. It also has a 1Ghz dual-core processor, 5 mp camera and forked Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, which heals Nokia’s Achilles Heels: apps.
This phone will set you back by around 17K PKR.
Desire 310
The Desire 310 has a 4.5” display with a quad-core MediaTek processor and 512 MB RAM. You also get 4 GB internal storage and a 5 megapixel camera capable of shooting 1080p video. And since it is made by HTC, you can also expect good build quality.
The phone will cost you Rs. 22,000.
Xperia L
This phone is decidedly old now but offers such a great value for money that we had to add it. You’re getting a 4.3” display with acceptable resolution, a dual-core Qualcomm processor and 1 GB RAM. At the back lies an 8 mp camera with HD video. The display, being made by Sony isn’t as good, however.
The phone costs about Rs. 18K.
Xperia C
The Xperia C is one of those big phones which cost surprisingly cheap. It comes with a 5” display with average resolution, and a quad-core MediaTek processor underneath with 1 GB RAM and 4 GB internal storage.
At the back lies an 8 megapixel camera with Full HD video. The Xperia C will set you back by Rs. 23K.
Noir 120
Maybe you were expecting this. The Noir 120 comes with a 4” WVGA display, 1 Ghz dual-core processor and 512 MB RAM. At the back sits a 5 mp camera. It costs just Rs. 10,600, and is plugged by Shahid Afridi. What is there that you can ask for more?
Huawei G700
The Huawei G700 is a more expensive than others, costing about Rs. 25,000 but has fine specs. You get a 5” display with 720p resolution, quad-core MediaTek processor and 2 GB RAM. You also get an 8 megapixel 1080p camera and Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.
The OS is thickly-skinned but with Huawei, that is always expected.
Huawei Y530
The Y530 comes with a 4.5” display with modest resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, a dual-core Snapdragon 200 processor underneath and 512 MB RAM. At the back lies a 5 megapixel camera, while the OS running is Android 4.3. This phone will set you back by about Rs. 18K.
MOTO G is the best amoung all :)
but has a crap camera.

Who says that? The camera is not bad at all .. I have personally seen the phone , display is fantastic and Camera is not bad as well.
Secondly what do you expect for a low budget phone

its a good phone overall no doubt but lacks in camera quality only. Well its a personal preference too i for one dont want a low quality camera so i wont buy this phone for that reason.
There are some phone in low budget which have better cameras.
It has one of the most robust Android systems. For me that is a big plus.
Please decide whether you need a phone, or a camera. Innovation in phone industry died a miserable death when they started making devices that were more of a camera than a phone. We need pure breed phones, not eunuchs.
10K tak ka koi nahi hai?

Moto phones are not officially available in Pakistan so there is no resale value, why is it in the list ??
When getting married, do you check for resale value? How about when you have children? What about lunch, do you check for resale value when deciding whether to eat at McDonalds or somewhere else?
I don’t know about anyone else, but when I buy something (TV, laptop, mobile, whatever) I don’t care about resale value, I care about VALUE TO ME.
WELL SAID….
Well Said..
But You Mentioned Only Samsung?
Because You are sure It has a Better Resell
So Your Claim of Ignoring Resell is INVALID
What are you talking about? In the past 12 years I have bought Samsung, LG, Nokia, Qmobile, Apple products. I am happy with all except Q. And I have only sold ONE phone and that was after using it for two days because I was not satisfied with quality.
True,
True,

Congratulation Shahid Saleem to reach 1500 comments :D

Okay, but so what? You’re saying people are as foolish with cars as they are with phones? Not surprised at all.
I would buy a car that is reliable and will last 15-20 years. Long life with good service is my priority. My only reason for selling cars is when the maintenance cost is too high, which makes it useless to almost everyone except a trained mechanical person who can keep things running. Again, what is important is VALUE TO ME.

Correction: Huawei y530 is available in less than 15K

You conveniently ignored to mention the price of moto E in PKR and instead wrote 100 Euros while you didnt bother to mention price of Moto G. More importantly forgot to mention whether they are available in Pakistan currently or not especially moto E .
In the U.S, Moto E is costing for $130, which is roughly like 12-13k.
O bhai mera htc desire x be iss mei shamil ker lo

Q-Mobile Noir 120 plz koe iska review dey

It is unfortunate that while running with the crow, bloggers forget to discard non-sense phrases. Best bang for the buck means something obvious should we think about it for a minute. For the sake of spoon feeding, it simply means the best prostitute service a given amount can buy. I know the slang was coined by some douche years ago and putrid skunks continue to use it today in popular media. If we do the same, what is the difference between them and we?
Meanings of things evolve over time. Language changes. Get over it.
“Bang for the buck” was said by President Eisenhower who wanted defense policy based on nuclear weaponry. Check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bang_for_the_buck
Plus, you made an error. The last word of your comment should be “us”.
I think u forget . Huawei g610 u20. It cost 18k . In pk spec 1.2 quad core 1gb ram 5mp rear nd front cam etc..

You forgot to add BlackBerry Z10 which is available for 23K, and also Xperia SP which is much much better than Xperia C and Xperia L and is also available in market for 23K.

MOTO E.

Iphone 5c is the cheapset mobile handset supporting 3G 4G 4G LTE and CDMA too.
It is too CoOl i am in love with this phone GoOna get it soOn :)
iPhone 5C is neither cheap, more of a plastic-version of 5S costing about 40k with out-dated 2011 specs.
I ‘d rather go for Blackberry z10 in 20k..
Correction of incomplete sentence:Q-mobile is the worst brand!
yup moto g is best but all are gud one
