10 cheap smartphones from makers you've actually heard of

After presenting you with 10 luxurious, ultra expensive smartphones, it is time to take a look at the opposite side of the spectrum. Because you know, not everyone needs gems and precious metals covering their phone. Mr Average Joe will be just fine with a handset that can do email, access the web, and run most of the popular smartphone apps. At the same time, the smartphones we have selected for today's pick are all been made by respectable manufacturers – none of those non-sense Chinese knock-offs that last 25.3 minutes on a single charge. Do not hesitate to drop a comment below and say which one of these you would get, assuming your budget was tight, and if you can think of a smartphone that we should have included on the list, feel free to let us know!
