I spend a lot of time looking at the high-end of smartphones because typically that’s where the shiny innovations are. But there’s a lot happening in the budget end of the market too.
The Nitro 2 from Aspera packs a huge amount of reasonable tech into a device that costs $179. That’s 1/10th of the price of some modern-day flagships, and given the cost of living crisis we’re going through presently, it makes sense to at least consider what this budget smartphone offers.
There are sacrifices — plenty of them — but if your needs are modest from your smartphone, then the Nitro 2 could be a worthwhile budget option to keep you connected.
