• The minimum cost of the device in online stores is up to 5,000 rubles;
• General characteristics, type of installed chipset, number of cores; availability of a new version of Android;

• The amount of internal memory and operational, as well as support for flash cards with a certain amount of memory;
• Screen: its size, type: TFT, IPS; resolution, scratch resistance, the presence of an installed film by the manufacturer, whether or not it has an oleophobic coating;

• The size and weight of the phone.

10 best smartphones in the budget up to 5,000 rubles

10 DOOGEE X53

This is an inexpensive phone with a modest performance, but the best camera for the budget price category. There is Android 7.0, a 5.3-inch screen with a resolution of 960x480 and an aspect ratio of 18 to 9, 1 GB of RAM and a 4-core processor from Media Library. Battery capacity - 2200 mAh, it lasts for a day or two. The camera is surprising - there is a double main module with a resolution of 5 megapixels each and a high-aperture aperture F / 1.8.

The body is metal, it looks stylish due to the thin frames and convenient dimensions. An essential minus of the model is advertising in Android. In the reviews, users complain about the abundance of advertising banners in the menu, spontaneous installation of applications. The network has firmware that may solve the problem.

9 BQ BQ-5057 Strike 2

This is an inexpensive model made in China, with a diagonal of 5 inches, IPS matrix and HD resolution. The camera resolution, according to the manufacturer, is 13 megapixels, but in fact it is an 8 megapixel module with interpolation (software improvement) up to 13 megapixels. The Mediatek MT6580 processor is an unproductive quad-core chip with a clock frequency of 1300 MHz. Built-in memory - 8 GB, operational - 1.

Reviews eloquently hint at a good assembly, tactilely pleasant body (the power button is framed by a relief mesh), the best display for this price. Here IPS matrix, the image on which is visible even on a sunny day on the street. The battery perfectly copes with its function - it holds for two days with a moderately active mode of using a smartphone.

8 Digma VOX FIRE 4G

Neat candy bar with a budget harmonious filling. There is a five-inch screen with HD resolution, which is considered a luxury for an inexpensive phone. There is 4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, as well as a GPS module.There is a little RAM - 1 GB, built-in - 8 gigabytes. The smartphone supports memory cards up to 32 GB.

The reviews are positive: the owners are pleased with the small price, the absence of lags, a good screen and convenient dimensions. The phone is made in China, and the logo on its back panel does not inspire confidence. But it was precisely this creation of the manufacturer that turned out extremely successful. The low price here is organically combined with the budget, but good-quality filling and smooth work of the gadget. This is one of the best options for an inexpensive phone as a spare, optional and even basic device.

7 Alcatel PIXI 4 Plus Power

Overall device with a diagonal of 5.5 inches and a resolution of 720x1280. 8 megapixel camera endowed with autofocus, the front only nominal 2 megapixels, which is enough for video calls of satisfactory quality. The MTK processor for four cores copes well with routine tasks: the operating system runs smoothly, simple programs and games run quickly, and messengers work fine.

5000 mAh battery lasts for five days of continuous listening to music. In active use, according to reviews, the battery life lasts for two or three days. There is no 4G, the camera is rather weak, the dimensions are rather big, but this is the best option for schoolchildren, students and all those who are limited in budget but want to buy a smartphone with a large screen.

6 Vertex Impress Lion 3G

Five-megapixel phone on the seventh Android and with a powerful 4400 mAh battery. Reviews say that the battery can withstand two days, subject to regular surfing the Internet. There will be enough camera resource to capture moments from life as a souvenir, to photograph documents. Here is an 8 megapixel camera with no frills.

The screen pleases users - the color rendition is good, the viewing angles are sufficient. I just do not like the responsiveness of the sensor - owners complain that sometimes they have to press several times so that the sensor will feel a click. Productivity is enough for everyday tasks: social networks, instant messengers, simple games and programs, calls and reading books.

5 Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini Prime (2016) SM-J106F / DS

Inexpensive model from the South Korean brand. This is a compact phone that sits ergonomically even in a children's hand. There are 4 inches in diagonal and 800x480 resolution. Batteries of 1500 mAh, surprisingly, last for three to four days in conditions of moderate use. It also charges quickly - it takes up to 100% to reach 100% in 1.5 hours, but in order to charge in half, it takes 30 minutes.

In the reviews, users speak about the regularly “arriving” updates. Thanks to Samsung, which provides software support even for its budget segment of smartphones. The main disadvantage of the Galaxy J1 Mini Prime is that there is little internal memory that is partially filled by embedded non-removable applications.

4 TP-LINK Neffos C5A

The manufacturer of telecommutation equipment from China rolled out a budget smartphone to the market. Here is the seventh version of Android, a quad-core processor from Mediatek, support for two memory cards. A screen with a diagonal of 5 inches with an aspect ratio of 16 to 9. The TFT matrix with multitouch support. The camera is surprising - there are only 5 megapixels, which give frames with a resolution of 2560 × 1920. There is autofocus. The video is recorded in Full HD.

Users in the reviews talk about a rather tenacious battery - 2300 mAh capacity is enough for two or three days. Provided that the manufacturer offers a two-year warranty, this is the best option for those who are looking for a working smartphone with no frills and expensive features that nobody needs.

3 Motorola Moto C LTE 16GB

The second life of the legendary brand under the wing of Lenovo. There is Android 7.0, a five-inch screen with a resolution of 854x480 and the presence of 4G. In a review, one of the owners in total charge saving mode (rare calls, disabled mobile Internet and Wi-Fi, operation in e-book mode) says that Moto C LTE lasts two weeks without an outlet. Another user notes the presence of stabilization in the camera, although due to the low resolution - 5 Mp - the pictures are still not pleased with the quality and aesthetics.

This is the best option for those who want a beautiful design and a stable smartphone for cheap. There is also a front camera of 2 megapixels, so that the owner will be able to communicate via video link. The manufacturer offers several colors: brutal black, delicate gold and bright red.

2 INOI 3 Lite

Five-inch inexpensive phone from a young Russian company. The brand is not yet in demand, but is confidently gaining the trust of customers. Here is the 7th Andorid, dual camera, 2250 mAh battery. The quality of the photo is enough for snapshots of documents - everything is readable. It is not necessary to count on aesthetics of frames - the second module is 0.3 Mp here, rather, for beauty, and the main module, at 8 Mp, is working out its capabilities to the maximum. Built-in memory - 8 GB, operational - 1 GB.

In the reviews, the owners are satisfied with the screen - the colors are juicy, the sensor is not buggy, the eye does not grab individual pixels at a resolution of 960x480. And here there is a trendy screen format with an aspect ratio of 18 to 9. There is no 4G and a fingerprint scanner - all the other necessary functions in our time are realized in an unknown novelty.

1 ZTE Blade A330

A smartphone from China with Android 7.1 on board and a 4000 mAh battery. The model supports two SIM-cards, boasts support for 4G, 16 GB of internal memory and a loud speaker. This is an ideal inexpensive smartphone - the manufacturer has removed all that unnecessary, which increases the cost of the goods, and left the necessary functions and capabilities. The result is a balanced long-lived smartphone, which will be the best option as a second phone, a navigator in the car (there is GPS, GLONASS and a powerful battery), a device for a fisherman and a hunter (the network pulls steadily, for that kind of money you don’t lose will launch casual toys, not tupit when working with messengers).

In the reviews, users speak about the modest capabilities of the camera (5 megapixels here) and insufficient RAM (1 GB). The rest, including the stability and smoothness of the system, suits the owners.
