Both Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobileare now selling new three Android smartphones $150 or less. Whereas some of the models may have been previously announced or offered through one of the service providers, the trio can now be had at both places.
Each comes from a different hardware maker; however, all three run Android 5.1 Lollipop and can be scooped up at Walmart for the two carriers.
- The HTC Desire 626s features a 5-inch 720p display, an 8-megapixel rear camera and 2-megapixel front-facing camera. You’ll find this one for $130.
- The third generation Moto G is a water-resistant handset with a 13-megapixel rear camera and 5-inch DH display protected by Gorilla Glass 3. Look for the Moto G for $150.
The Huawei Union is a more entry-level experience and comes with a 4.5-inch touchscreen display, 5-megapixel rear-facing camera. Priced $80.00, it offers up a 4.5-inch screen, with power coming from a 1.1GHz quad-core processor, 1GB RAM, and 8GB of storage. Rounding things out, the Union has a 2,000mAh battery as well as support for memory cards up to 32GB.
Both Virgin Mobile and Boost Mobile operate off of the Sprint network.
