There are 4G LTE mobile networks all over the place these days, so it is not out-of-place for people to be hunting for a bargain smartphone that can do 4G. If you have lots of cash to burn, there are scores of 4G smartphones out there for you to splurge on But if you are on a budget, not so many. So we hunted out the cheapest 4G smartphones you can buy in 2018 just for you.
There are a few things to note though. There is such a thing as 4G compatibility. Your 4G smartphone will not work with all 4G networks, so you have to find out what 4G bands your preferred network runs and then make sure that the phone you want to buy supports that band. So, be sure to look in the “Supported 4G Frequency bands” section for each phone listed below.
Also, when shopping for the cheapest 4G smartphones, many of them will run older software. The older the software, the greater the chances of app incompatibility (as rare as that may be), as well as other issues.
Lastly, for the purpose of this article, we shall be sticking to 4G smartphones that cost below N30,000 and we shall work our way down to the very cheapest of the lot.

If you are going to consider the Nova N1, note that one SIM slot is locked to Ntel’s 4G network and the other SIM slot does not support 4G. In other words, the only 4G SIM card you can use with it is an Ntel SIM card.
Note also the small screen, but it is touchscreen and we managed to type on it with some inconvenience (see our Ntel Nova N1 review ).
The Nova N1 costs NGN25,000 with a month’s unlimited internet bundle from Ntel.
