Alcatel
Telstra and its network resellers are blitzing the prepaid market with its Essential Plus (Alcatel 1C/3G) at $89. And if you want more, it has the Alcatel 1X/4G at $129 and the Telstra Superior (Alcatel 3V) at $199. Fantastic value, modern 18:9 screens and Alcatel reliability.
GadgetGuy’s low-cost pick here is either the $89 1C/3G if you want a basic, reliable phone. If you need 4G, then the 1X is the option although we suggest you go for the 3V at $199 with a dual camera.
