The best Android phones under 50000 naira or 150 dollars
With that in mind, let us jump into our list of the best Android phones under 50000 naira. We even have one that combines 64 GB storage and 4 GB RAM. Great value for money, if you ask me.
TECNO Camon 11 4GB/64GB – best value for money
We are starting off with the best bargain available for most users. TECNO Camon 11 Pro stands head above the shoulders of others in our list of the best smartphones under 50000 naira or 150 dollars.
