Homtom HT50 Low Budget Android Smartphone Review, Specs and Price

In case you were wondering, Homtom is a Chinese company or should I say one of the Chinese companies that have recently found its way into the Nigerian market with the likes of Leagoo, Doogee and Allwin. One thing Chinese tech companies are known for and which you will agree with me is making cheap, affordable and to an extent quality smartphones. The company did not just create an excellent device; the Homtom HT50 is quite pocket-friendly.

The Homtom HT50 has a novel design that catches the eye with beautifully rounded corners that give it that cool, smart look we all know. The back panel is covered by excellent carbon material that has a nice texture and provides a more nice grip. The real deal here is the battery life of about 5500mAh that ensure long-lasting usage and a degree of independence from your power bank. Even with the enormous battery, it manages to maintain a super slim design with the height of only 8.9mm.

  1. Thank you for this information but please try and review your article before publishing, you initially said that this phone features 13.0MP primary camera and on the General Information, you said that the primary camera is 8.0MP. Which one now will i believe? Well, i refuse to be confused by you.
