MobilityArena Buyer’s Guide Verdict

For $140 or ₦43,000, the 64GB variant looks like really good value for money. There are not many smartphones with 4GB RAM at this price point. The Helio P23 chipset is fairly decent, and the 4150mAh battery provides ample battery life. And with an extensive range of LTE bands, you are less likely to be unable to access 4G services on your favourite network.
