Aspera Mobile has released two new models to its range of budget priced mobiles, the AS6 smartphone and F42 flip phone. The AS6 carries face recognition, a fingerprint sensor, dual-SIM and 4G and retails at $149. The F42, 4G flip phone with pre-loaded social media apps and easy to use large buttons, retails at $99.
According to Aspera Mobile managing director, Allan Robertson the AS6 has kept its brand promise to bring a great value, budget-priced smartphone to consumers looking for a large screen, full Android phone. “Also, to get face recognition and a fingerprint sensor in a full-featured smartphone for $149 is exceptional value and very rare indeed,” he said.
“There is an increasing demand for high quality, low-cost alternatives and the AS6 gives you that in a smartphone. The F42 is ideal for the young or elderly, budget-conscious user wanting a simple phone with easy-to-read large buttons and the most used social media apps, including WhatsApp and Facebook already installed.”
