Top 10 Cheapest Android Phones in Nigeria 2024

Are you planning to get a new smartphone this year (2023) but on a very tight budget? You don’t need to worry; this list of my top 10 cheapest Android phones in Nigeria will do justice to that, as the list include all the best Android phones you can get below 30k – 50k. However, you must understand a few things when looking for a cheap Android phone. The word “Cheapest” means the most affordable.

I know that you want something good for your money, but also know that when a phone is so cheap, it
means that some features have been compromised to lower the price. Don’t expect a 20,000 Naira phone to possess a feature that a 100k phone offers. On the hand, sometimes you might not need an expensive Android phone but an Android phone with basic features.

Your aged parents or your younger siblings might not need an expensive smartphone but something good enough to keep them connected on social networks, make and receive calls, snap pictures and play music. This list of the cheapest Android phones will provide more options based on your budget.
