Spec me a super cheap Android phone

randomshenans · 6 May 2021 at 07:32

Hey all,
There are a million of these devices on the market but I need an Android phone for testing some apps, things I can't do on emulators really, so figured I'll just buy a cheap device.

Anyone know a super cheap Android that runs OK, would be nice wireless charging so I can just charge it on my desk. Ideally not a super small screen, and running fairly up to date OS.

What's about at the moment?

Price range?
Super cheap and wireless charging don't go hand in hand, pretty sure you need to start around £150.

Yea, to be honest I didn't even know this haha 150 I'd class as super cheap for that sort of thing. So something around the 150-200 mark would be ideal I think

You should be able to get a Poco X3 for under £200, not sure if it has wireless charging or not though.

Poco X3 going for £169 on mi.com daily deals just now. Best cheap phone out there.

Does Poco X3 support wireless charging?

I have always found wireless charging to be slow
