Every year, billions of smartphones are sold worldwide and because of the competitive nature of the market, smartphone makers with budget friendly devices are getting better sales because there is no longer the need to buy the most expensive phone just to get the best, and latest features.

Budget friendly smartphones can be seen to flaunt several high- end features such as fingerprint scanning technology, good camera, huge battery capacity, etc.

However, one notable feature that budget smartphones brand makers have recently integrated into their devices is the newest update in the world of technology – Android 8.1 Oreo (Go edition), which is powered on for excellent performance, as opposed to the usual Android OS that you normally find on smartphones. With the just concluded Google for Nigerians event, smartphones have become smarter and we should have alot in-store for us, courtesy of Google.

So, why is Android Go, the Go-to operating system for budget smartphones?

Android Go is faster and more Secure

The upgraded Google owned Android Go operating system is optimized to be faster, smarter and more powerful than ever. It is tailored to deliver stellar benefits to users with reimagined apps like YouTube Go, File Go, MapGo and Google Go.

These apps are well optimized with enhanced data efficiency, faster startup and app sign in. With Android Go users are guaranteed more secure internet surfing experience, for example, Google Play store comes with Google play protect security scans to identify which are apps are safe from millions of apps available in the store.

Android Go gives you more storage option

Android Go is devoid of bloatware that are usually pre-installed on most budget devices. Bloatware are known to slow down devices. If you have ever experienced incessant hanging before, it is due to many bloatware that are installed on our devices. In the case of Android Go, you have fewer apps installed and most of these apps have been well optimized to use less storage space, giving you more storage option.

Better Data Management

Android are known to be data-hungry due to huge chunk of apps that are running in the background. However, the new Android Go is built for optimal performance. You now have total control of which apps get to use your data and when, it’s like having your own sidekick, but for data.

As new smartphones keep creeping into the market almost every month, there are some that are better than others and Android Go devices have proved to be very reliable budget devices.

TECNO Spark 2 is one of such Android GO smartphones that comes highly recommended by notable tech enthusiasts.

The new device flaunts several high-end features which include amazing camera features, large battery capacity, and one of the most beautiful aesthetics on a smartphone.
Other specs include an advanced Security Facial ID feature with a 700 MS unlock speed, an upgraded fingerprint picture snapper, this helps users capture their pictures with a single hand.

The TECNO Spark 2 is a good bargain for any smartphone user as it sells for as low as N36,200 only.

Please help your boy out by pushing this to FP. Thank you.

Am gng fr d spark2 right away...

wow!!! Am already loving the phone.. nice phone with an affordable price.

abeg who dey use this fone? thinking of changinf my infinix.. am extremely tired of dat shit of a phone

All i have seen so far about spark 2 made me go for it. with the airtel smart connect my data is like everlasting data.

I feel the better data management should be key when picking a phone ...

There's nothing as good as enjoying a fast and smooth web experience.. that's exactly what I'm enjoying on my TECNO spark 2

The aspect of data management is what I'm most interested in sef. I spend FIRE on data monthly. I need to switch.

A budget smartphone leaves you with enough cash to attend to your other needs.

I personally use the spark K7 which was sold for N32,800 and I know how many transactions I've done while using the phone.

The spark 2 will actually be a good choice for those who want quality while considering their pockets

Yes...Data Management should be key when choosing a phone.

The Google for Nigerians event was awesome...it was very eventful n am happy to be in this event.

Was skeptical about a device running on Android Go until I got one Spark 2 for my mom. Doesn't even feel as if it's a 1GB RAM device too. I think it's a technology manufacturers should imbibe.

All this guys laying emphasis on data management as if it's only phones with Android 8 OS that can do it...the option has been available for long, even before Android 8 was released.

some phone manufacturers include it as part of the phone settings. The infinix hot (Android 4.4.2 kitkat) I used some time in 2015 had the option to select apps that can have access to the internet.. .in fact it also has bandwidth management for hotspot connection. something my current android 7.0 lacks.

The Spark 2 is really a king in Low bugdet smartphones. When it was released, I thought it was all a haux (an android Go paired with a I GB ram).

Suprisingly, it turns out to be one of the best phones TECNO Mobile has produced. The performance of the Spark 2 matches it's counterparts that run a 2GB ram memory. You will be surprised how fast it is in multi tasking and general performance. My cousin doesn't let us rest again since she got hers.

And for the record, I love the design.. #Sleek and Light

I don't really know about the Android go version but I heard from a friend that its much more better in space management but I think this enlightened me more that it has been optimized to use less storage space

As well..... Enjoying data to the fullest is a thing of joy....

Tecno spark 2 is really a good phone, am using it currently u wouldn't even notice it a 1gb ram phone

I think every 1GB RAM budget smartphone should run Android GO. I mean that’s google’s plan right?

Buying cheaper smartphone has its own demerits http://checkphonereview..com/2018/07/thinking-of-buying-cheap-smartphone_20.html

I think that's understatement as I feel it runs in 4GB RAM. The processing speed is so high...

Nice one @alexDBaberian

Google go edition is definitely a thing to go for.
Multitasking is seamless.
