Phones come in all shapes and sizes these days, from the bleeding-edge extravagance of the latest iPhones to the bare bones simplicity of retro-styled feature phones like the Nokia 8110 4G. Both ends of the spectrum serve wildly different audiences, but neither adequately caters to the smartphone buyer looking for a handset capable enough to keep pace with the modern online world yet affordable enough to be purchased outright rather than requiring commitment to a lock-in contract.
That's why phones like the Optus X Smart exist. Equipped with a large touch screen, a capable camera and 4G connectivity, it covers all the basic functions expected of a modern smartphone while sporting an accessible budget price tag. If you don't need lightning fast performance or flashy features like wireless charging and NFC, the Optus X Smart might be just the handset you've been looking for.
