Check out these unlocked Android smartphones from CellPhoneAGE

by John_A

Looking for a new cell phone? Tired of paying $700 for a smartphone that may only last a year or two?

CellPhoneAGE has a fantastic selection of Android devices from up and coming manufacturers you may or may not have heard of. Just two years ago, almost no one in the U.S. knew of Huawei and they recently exploded onto the market with the Google branded Nexus 6P, P for “premium.” The Nexus 6P is almost universally regarded as one of the best phones of 2015 and was made by Huawei. So don’t let unfamiliarity with a brand keep you from checking out these great unlocked phones from CellPhoneAge.

These unlocked devices are designed to be used on GSM/HSDPA networks so check your carrier’s frequencies before you make a purchase.

ASUS ZenFone Selfie (ZD551KL) – $265.98 – LINK

Asus is a brand you’re probably already familiar with as they made the Nexus 7 and also make a whole host of Chromebooks. The octa-core ASUS ZenFone Selfie is perfect for those of you who love to snap pictures of yourself as it offers dual 13MP cameras on the front and back of the phone. There’s also dual flash LEDs as well which means ASUS understands the importance of the front facing camera for the selfie lovers. There are very few phones on the market today with a front facing camera with an LED flash and a 13MP camera.

The Huawei P8 Lite was released before the Nexus 6P and is proof Huawei was a real player before Google validated them. The Huawei P8 Lite comes with a powerful octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 processor which is perfect for multitasking. It is an incredibly designed phone and definitely looks like the precursor to the Nexus 6P. The P8 maybe should have been named the pre-Nexus 6P phone.

  • OS: Android 5.0.2 Lollipop
  • CPU: Qualcomm Snapdragon 615

  • MEMORY: 16GB(expandable via microSD up to 128GB), 2 GB RAM

Huawei Honor 7 -$396.19 – LINK

Huawei-Honor-7

My personal favorite of the bunch, the Huawei Honor 7 which was just released this past July. At about $400, this device falls into the mid-range category of unlocked devices, but it comes loaded as a flagship. The Honor 7 comes with the super powerful Kirin 935, which is a 2.2Ghz octa-core processor, and can holds its own against the best. The display is top grade at full 1080p and 424ppi for a super clear display. This device is absolutely gorgeous as it comes in an all metal body that looks better than most of the phones you can get from major carriers.

  • DISPLAY: 5.2 inches,  1080p 424ppi
  • OS: Android 5.0 Lollipop
  • CPU: HiSilicon Kirin 935
  • CAMERA: 20 MP, 4992 х 3744 pixels, phase detection autofocus, dual-LED (dual tone) flash
  • MEMORY: 16/64 GB (microSD, up to 128 GB), 3 GB RAM, 2 GB RAM

ZTE Blade S6 – $219.80 – LINK

ZTE is definitely one of the lesser known manufacturers to average US consumers but still makes incredible devices. Abroad, however, this is a brand that is growing at a breakneck pace. The ZTE Blade S6 is proof as it comes in a metal unibody design and is absolutely gorgeous. The days of poorly designed budget friendly phones are over. The Blade S76 is so named because it comes in at a svelt 7mm thick.

  • DISPLAY: 5 inches, 720 x 1280p 294ppi
  • OS: Android 5.0.1 Lollipop
  • CPU: Qualcomm MSM8939 Snapdragon 615
  • CAMERA: 13 MP, 4128 x 3096 pixels, autofocus, LED flash
  • MEMORY: 16 GB, 2 GB RAM
