Meet The World Cheapest Smartphone Ever. It Costs $4 (₦1100) Only by tunisbaba(m): 10:53am On Jun 30, 2016
About a year ago. We heard of a collaboration between a long list of brands including Google, Infinix and Jumia, in the name of launching Android One which they termed a very cheap phone because of its features.

I have no choice than to re-think the meaning of the word cheap when I met Freedom 251 which is now regarded as the world cheapest smartphone ever. It costs only $4, equivalent to about ₦1100.

The phone which was supposed to be released by 30th of June, 2016 but was later delayed to 7th of July is made by Ringing Bell, an Indian company that aims at manufacturing and subsidizing the smartphone to their customers.

It was stated that over 70 Million people registered online when the phone was first launched in February 2016 and now the company says it is delivering the first 200,000 copies by July.

Specifiation of Freedom 251
Although the smartphone is unbelievably cheap but the specifications are impressive. It has:
Screen Size: 4.00 inch
Screen Resolution: 540 x 960 pixels
Camera: Front 3.2 Megapixel and Back Camera 0.3 Megapixel
RAM: 1 GB
Internal Storage: 8GB, expandable to 32 GB
OS: Android 5.1
Battery Capacity: 1450mAh

This smartphone is mainly designed for emerging economy countries with citizens that want to connect to the world through a mobile phone.

For this reason, this smartphone would only be shipped to the India market for the moment and hopefully to other countries in the nearest future.

But who cares though.
If that phone is real, it would be totally worth the viruses as long as it can receive and make calls grin
