The Chinese smartphone makers offer you the choice of ‘high class’ cells at an amazingly affordable price. As a matter of fact, some of these are bound to make you think twice before going for the new flagship model from Samsung or perhaps even Apple.
No 10. ZTE Tania
This is one of those Chinese phones that run the Windows Phone 7.5 Mango. It comes with a 4.3-inch 800 x 480 display, 1GHz processor, 512 MB RAM, 4GB storage, 1,400mAh battery and a 5 megapixel camera. The price of $360 might be a bit too much for the specs though.

Packing a 3.8-inch screen (800 x 400 pixels), NVIDIA’s 1GHz Tegra 2 chip, 512MB RAM, a 5 megapixel rear camera and 8GB of internal storage, the most attractive feature on this phone is that it comes with Alibaba’s ‘Aliyun’, which is based on Google Android 2.3. The Aliyun OS features cloud services including e-mail, Internet search, weather updates and GPS navigation tools. Users can seamlessly synchronize, store and back-up data such as contact information, call logs, text messages, notes and photos to AliCloud’s remote data center, and can also access and update this data across all their PC and mobile devices. It costs around $470.
