Tecno Y2 Price
This phone used to be one of the cheapest phones going from 12,000 Naira but the demand has influenced the price up to N23,000. However, you might not be able to find this phone in the market but it’s still available on Jumia selling between N17,000 – N23,000.
Hey, Remember there are other Tecno Y series like Y6, Y4, Y3, you can find out more about them here. From what I understand people demand this phone because it’s affordable and durable but the current price as am seeing it is not fair at all.
While going for Tecno Y2 you should understand that it’s a low priced smartphone that does not offer any special features seen on other advanced high-end smartphones.
The phone is portable and offers a 4-inch display which can only be endorsed by those who don’t like it big. The camera, battery, and memory is nothing serious but manageable for a starter
Social App Support
If you are wondering whether this phone can be used for WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, etc, then the answer is yes, they are pre-installed and all you need is update them.
Tecno Y2 supports 3D games such as Fruit Ninja, Angry Birds, Gta, Talking Tom and as well gives you full access to Google Play Store.
