Now if you’re not sure of getting the Smart ZTE Blade A75 5G (we’re working on the review, which is coming out soon), we check out the budget 5G phones available in the Philippines for 2024. For this list, we try to keep it at an under Php 10k price point, as we think it is the most accessible price segment for those looking to own their first 5G phone.

- itel P55 5G
- Infinix HOT 20 5G
- Samsung Galaxy A15 5G

Itel P55 5G
The Itel P55 5G is the most affordable 5G-ready phone in this list with a price that rivals the Smart ZTE Blade A75 5G. For Php 5.6k, you get a Dimensity 6080 processor that’s paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, which is not bad at all for under Php 6k. You also get a 90hz display and a 50-megapixel main camera as well. The P55 5G is just priced at Php 5,549.
Infinix Hot 20 5G
While it is a relatively old model, the HOT 20 5G is one of the few under Php 10k 5G-ready phones that’s available in the Philippines. You get a Dimensity 810 processor that’s paired with 4GB RAM and 128GB RAM, along with a Full HD+ 120hz display, a 50-megapixel main shooter, and a 5000mAh battery that supports 18w charging. This phone is priced at Php 8,599.
Samsung Galaxy A15 5G
A 5G Samsung phone for under Php 10k? You read that right: the Galaxy A15 5G has a price of under Php 9k, making it a tempting deal if you want a 5G-ready phone without breaking the bank. For that price, you get a Dimensity 6100+ processor, a 90hz Super AMOLED display, a 50-megapixel main camera, and a 5000mAh battery with support for 25w charging–not bad for a Samsung phone. The Galaxy A15 5G is priced at Php 8,420.
TECNO Spark 20 Pro 5G
At an under Php 10k price point, the Spark 20 Pro 5G is one of our top picks for a budget, 5G-ready phone. It comes with a Dimensity 6080 processor that’s paired with 8GB RAM and 256GB UFS 2.2 storage, and we liked how TECNO tuned the 108-megapixel ISOCELL HM6Â main camera on this phone. Oh, and it is priced at just Php 9,999.
nubia Neo 2 5G
A budget 5G phone tha’s also made for gaming? That’s what the nubia Neo 2 5G wants to offer with its capacitive shoulder buttons, a gamer-inspired design, and a Unisoc T820 processor that’s paired with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage. Complementing its gamer cred is a 6000mAh battery with 33w charging and a 120hz Full HD+ display. The nubia Neo 2 5G is priced at Php 9,999.
We all know budget is king here in our local market so we hope this list helps you pick which budget-friendly 5G phone to get.
