This £100 Android smartphone comes with meaty specifications including a 4in display, 1GHz Qualcomm processor, 512MB of RAM and 5-megapixel camera. Despite its budget nature, and the use of Android 2.3, Huawei hasn't compromised on performance or battery life.

Like other entry-level Huawei handsets before it, the G300 is excellent value for money. What it lacks in polish, it makes up for with its decent features and hardware.
