Top 10 Smart Phones in 2014: Under 200 Dollars
Hi the world :-)
This year we saw some remarkable releases in the smartphone world. Companies from around the world, yes from around the globe, from the most eastern place to the most western place, from the north pole to the south pole. Everyone released their bestest till now in this year. But when it comes to a regular buyer; the most busy range is under 200 dollars range to buy a new smart phone.
So with out further due lets do what is due, starting off with No 10:
No 10: Gionee M2
No 9: Micromax A190 Canvas HD Plus
The Indian company is one of the very few companies which
have seen quite a lot of lime lite internationally over the last couple of
years. Now with markets even reaching Hollywood and brand ambassador None other
than Hugh Jackman. This brand is one to look forward. With its summer releases
it showed a remarkable and actually capable device A190 Canvas HD Plus. Sure it
has some unbelievable specs on paper like a Hexa core 1.5 Ghz cortex A7 CPU
with a GPU Mali-450 and 1 GB of RAM (Camera 8 MP back, 2 MP front). It is
better than many lower priced octa cores in performance spectrum. Its weaker
joint is in its screen while it comes with 5 inch panel and does not lack in
resolution, it surely lacks the X factor when it comes to colors. With just a
support of 256K colors the Panel is not as good as the CPU performance is. Well
this take down is still pushed up surprisingly by the price which is just
around 170-180 Dollars.
No 8: Gionee Marathon M3
Well this upgrade in M number is actually 99% same phone in
terms of hardware to the previous generation of M series from Gionee, But the
internal memory is increased from 4 GB to 8 GB and the GPU is latest Mali-450
rest is just history repeated on paper. This M3 comes with Android KitKat and
we hope that an update would be in plans for the Android Lollipop. Along with
these tiny upgrades the massive upgrade is in battery which was previously wet
to last just around 24 Hrs of 3g talk time, is now upto 40 hours of 3g talk
time. The price is still eye catching 170-180 Dollars.
No 7: Huawei Ascend G620s
This company has been around since the early days of the
mobile phone manufacturing. So they have also been in charts for their releases
every now and then. This latest in the Ascend G series has a 5 inch screen with
16M colors which gives a subpar image quality. The Chipset is a Qualcomm Snapdragon
clocked at 1.2 Ghz Quad core with Adreno 306 GPU and 1 GB of RAM. Performance
wise the phone is above average and is definitely there to stay in ones hands
till they can afford higher priced better specs phone. Well right now the phone
is priced from 190 Dollars to just a penny over 200 dollars.
No 6: Lenovo A606
Yes it’s true! This laptop manufacturing company is now a
days pretty well into the smart phone business. With this A series phone they
are giving a Quad core 1.3 Ghz chipset with 1 GB RAM and Mali-400MP2 GPU. The screen
is 5 inch with 16M colors but has a pixel density which was considered amazing
in the first decade of this century. The main selling point of this phone is
its price which is just over 150 Dollars.
No 5: Sony Xperia M2
No 4: Nokia Lumia 735
Once the best smartphone company, well it’s still among the
best if you are not born for just apps. Nokia still rules the world of windows
phones but when it comes in an overall comparison depending on price, we could
not give it higher than this spot. This Lumia packs a CPU of 1.2 Ghz quad core
and 1 GB RAM. This also packs a powerful back camera with now legendary Nokia
sensor technology to put your photos in quality exhibition as well as a front
camera that can really make a portrait (6.7 MP back, 5 MP front). With a
windows phone 8.1 this phone owns the latest software from windows phone world.
It was priced at 250 but now it is available around 200 dollars.
No 3: Motorola Moto G Dual SIM (2014)
In the
affordable range of smart phones, Moto G is the most hyped phone as it was the
only phone last year which offered quad core CPU that could actually go neck to
neck with the biggies in terms of performance. Well its next gen is here and it
also promises the same build quality and performance which gave the last model
its place in buyer’s pockets and hearts. The CPU is again a quad core 1.3 Ghz
with 1GB of RAM and Adreno 305 GPU. While the upgrade is in screen size that is
now at 5 inches with above average graphic performance and resolution, As well
as there is an upgrade in camera 8 MP back and 2 MP front. Whole of this package
is just available around 200 bucks.
No 2: HTC Desire 616 dual sim
When it comes
to HTC they have the Mercedes standard in terms of build quality and design to impress
the masses. But this phone is not just the numbers on papers as it truly
performs like it is expected. It has an Octa core 1.4 CPU with 1 GB of RAM and
Mali 450 GPU. The Screen is hefty at 5 inches and gives realistic colors. The only
true downside is its battery but that is still enough to set you going through
a day or so of heavy usage. Price is catchy at about 200 Dollars.
No 1: Sony Xperia Z3 Compact
There are
few phones now a day which have a design language to die for and surely this
baby from Sony does not lack in catching the aaawwweeee. This compact phone is
actually pretty compact in terms of its size and its hardware, it packs a
powerfull quad core 2.5 Ghz CPU with 2GB of RAM and Adreno 330 GPU. This has
another punch hidden as it is IP68 certified so it is dust and water resistant.
The screen is 4.6 inches which gives vivid colors and is awesome to look at
while taking the most pleasure out from its CPU performance. The battery is
also powerful as it would easily take you through two or more days on full
charge with medium to heavy use. This is priced around 200 Dollars.
