<\/p>\nThe poll asked a simple question: “What do you look for most in a low-end (sub-$150) phone?” There were four possible answers:<\/p>\n
- \n
- A great camera<\/li>\n
- Fast performance<\/li>\n
- Long-lasting battery<\/li>\n
- Plenty of internal storage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Here’s how Android Authority<\/em> readers answered the poll. You can easily see which answer is the most important aspect of budget phones for them:<\/p>\n

With just over 45% of the vote, it appears fast performance is the biggest factor when choosing a device amongst a slate of budget phones. The camera quality and battery life came in pretty evenly at 23% and 25% respectively, while the amount of internal storage was the distant fourth-place winner at just under 7% of votes.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, getting fast performance out of budget phones is one of the trickiest things to do, because performance is so heavily dependent on the included processor. The SoC in a smartphone is one of the most expensive components, so it is incredibly difficult to make cheaper phones fast while still keeping them cheap.<\/p>\n
Let’s find out what you had to say about this, though.<\/p>\n

How can you look for fast performance in a low-end phone?<\/p>\nsaid_what<\/a>:
This is excellent Xiaomi. My Redmi Note 5 is still going strong. I am waiting for the future entry-level Redmi phones to gain 5G and Wi-Fi 6 support. Then I am all aboard the upgrade train.<\/p>\n@matix1000000<\/a>:<\/p>\n

- Performance – when it’s bad every other aspect of phone is worse to use<\/li>\n
- Memory – if you don’t have enough you can’t do as much<\/li>\n
- Screen – when everything works you want to consume it in better quality<\/li>\n
- Camera – you can begin to create<\/li>\n
- Battery – less charging needed<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

Honestly at $150 I’d not expect much from performance. Consuming media and social media is more than enough for a phone. Literally any phone can do that. But you can expect good cameras from a phone at that price and there are many options out there so yeah, camera<\/p>\n
\nThere you have it, that’s how you all feel about budget phones. Hopefully, there’s a cheap Android phone out there for you!<\/p>\n
