While there are plenty of premium, high-end smartphones in the market that push the technology’s (and, not to mention, our budget’s) limits to the end, a low price tag doesn’t necessarily have to entail an unworthy product. For the lot of us who prefer core functionality over extra bells and whistles, fortunately, there are many options available in the market as well.
As 2014 draws to a close, we here present our top picks of the top budget smarphones released earlier this year that don’t weigh too heavy on the pocket. Scroll away to see if there’s one listed here for you!
Microsoft Lumia 535 Dual SIM
Microsoft announced the self-branded Lumia 535 with dual SIM and 3G functionality only earlier this week in Pakistan.
Microsoft Lumia 535 has a 5-inch screen with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels. Powered by a 1.2 GHz quad-core Cortex-A7 processor and 1 GB RAM, Lumia 535 is a strong contender for the sub-15,000 category. A microSD card slot and removable battery make sure you don’t run out of memory or juice when you most need them. Microsoft Lumia 535 boasts Windows Phone 8.1’s latest update, Denim, alongside plenty of other software features. Add 5 MP primary, and 5 MP front-facing cameras, and the recipe for a perfect low-end smartphone is ready.

Samsung Galaxy Core 2
Samsung Galaxy Core 2 is marginally better than both Galaxy V and Galaxy Ace 4. Thanks to its bigger, 4.5-inch screen (though it has the same 480 x 800 pixels resolution), quad-core 1.2 GHz processor, 768 MB of RAM, and expandable 4 GB of internal memory, Galaxy Core 2 offers a decent performance-and-price cross. It also runs the TouchWiz variant of Android v4.4.2 KitKat. The overall deal is sweetened by a 2,000 mAh battery.

Sony Xperia E1
For those who don’t mind their phones being a little bulky, Sony Xperia E1 is a decent economical option. At 12mm thick, Xperia E1 has a 4-inch display with 480 x 800 pixels resolution underneath which one can find a Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 chipset with 1.2 GHz dual-core Cortex-A7 CPU. It has a 3.15 MP primary camera but unfortunately lacks a secondary one. Apart from the 4 GB of expandable internal memory and 512 MB of RAM, the smartphone is powered by a 1,700 mAh battery.
