Affordable 5G smartphones are difficult to find, if you are on a strict budget. The ₦300,000 mark is where some of us consider a sweet spot for value budget 5G smartphones, which is why we have just the list for you.
With ₦300,000 in your pocket or wallet or bank account, you will be able to buy one of the 5G smartphones we mention on this page and have some change to spare. We are all about helping you get the most out of your hard-earned money afterall.
Top 5G smartphones under ₦300,000 naira
Samsung Galaxy A15 5G is a popular choice, for the obvious reason that it is a Samsung. It is also the most available option on this list, for the same reason. It has a 1080p Super AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate.
Inside is a MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ 5G processor paired up with 6GB RAM. Internal storage is 128GB and 25W charging is available for the 5000mAh battery. The price at the time of writing this is ₦269,000.
Next on our list is the Nubia Focus Pro, showing up with a 1080p IPS LCD 120Hz display. The processor has the Unisoc T760 5G chip at its core. This model has 8GB RAM and 256GB storage. There is a 5000mAh battery and 33W charging. Buying one will cost you ₦267,000 only.
The Nubia Neo 2 5G has a more powerful Unisoc T820 5G processor and is marketed as a gaming smartphone. It has a 1080p IPS LCD 120Hz display, 8GB of RAM, 256GB internal storage, a heftier 6000mAh battery for those extended gaming sessions, and 33W fast charging. The price is ₦256,000.
Special Deals
The Samsung Galaxy A25 6/128GB is available at selected retailers for ₦295,000. Comparing its specs to those of the others above, the Galaxy A25 isn’t particularly exciting. Like the A15 5G, it has only 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, where the competition have 8GB RAM and 256GB storage.
But it costs over ₦370,000 normally and is now going for ₦295,000 in what appears to be a promo. I have no idea when this discounted price will expire, so hurry over to Slot or Pointek to grab one if you’ve been looking for a 5G smartphone under ₦300,000 naira.
The cheapest 5G smartphone
If what you are looking for is the most affordable 5G smartphone around today, the itel P55 5G might be what you are looking for.
On the inside is a Dimensity 6080 processor, 6GB RAM, 128GB storage, 5000mAh battery, 18W charging, and goes for only ₦175,700.
Last words
Of the top budget 5G phones listed in this article, the Galaxy A25 has the least amount of RAM and storage. Samsung phones tend to offer less of those two features than competing phones in their price categories. It is what it is.
One interesting thing is that it uses one of the weakest processors of the devices on this list. Even the processor in the itel P55 5G is more capable.
The Unisoc T820 in the Nubia Neo 2 is the most powerful on this list, followed by the Unisoc T760 in the Nubia Focus Pro 5G. The Exynos 1280 in the Samsung A25 sits between these two Unisoc chips.
You will want to consider other factors, too, though, so your final decision will likely not be based on processors and memory alone.
Another interesting thing is that brands like TECNO, Infinix, Xiaomi, and OPPO are missing on this list. Fanboys and girls of those brands will probably be up in arms. If you know of a solid 5G phone from one of them that should be on this list, drop a comment below telling us the name and why you think it qualifies to be included as one of the best 5G smartphones under ₦300,000 naira. Peace out.

Welcome to Mobility, Dickson Godswill !
The question always pops up…
Buy a meticulously maintained late model USED automobile… or.. buy a brand new (even if bargain basement) .
To phones… I will now always go for well USED high spec’d phones rather than go for lower cadre brand new.
Blame the economy…
All it takes is a bit of patience… and even 5G_phone prices would fall to a level where where ordinary mortals can “close eye” and buy.
