With Ulefone Be X, You can now Buy an Octa-core Android Smartphone for $90

$100 quad core Android phones, all Mediatek based, could be found back in 2013, and included 1GB RAM, 4GB flash, and a 4.5″ display with 854×480 resolution. Technology gets cheaper overtime, and in early 2015, you can now purchase an Octa-core smartphone for $90 with 1GB RAM, 8GB flash, the same 4.5″ display size, but a slightly higher resolution of 960×540 pixels thanks to products like Ulefone Be X.

Ulefone_Be_X_vs_Moto_GYou’re probably unlikely to notice much difference between a quad core and octa core processor, especially with only 1GB RAM, and Moto G build quality is likely to be significantly better. The price difference is probably bigger, since Be X actually costs $89.99 including shipping, while Moto G (2nd Gen) price is now closer to $180 shipped.

You can find Ulefone Be X smartphone for $89.99 and up on GearBest, GeekBuying, DealExtreme, and some other resellers. You may also want to check out the manufacturer page for further details.

  1. More importantly, the Moto G actually gets updates AND has 720p screen. There is no way in hell I will ever go below, again.

  2. What means “dual band wifi”, if both moto and ulefone doesn’t list 802.11a? Both claim “802.11b/g/n” only. The table is wrong.
