The world has been evolving rapidly in terms of technology and now than ever below, the world is a global village where people are able to link and do many things together while being thousands of miles part.

Since the time of large computers that used to take ages only to come on to the coming of manageable laptops and now mobile phones and tabloids, the world is actually destined to the next imaginable world, ruled by machines and electronic gadgets.

The coming of smartphones has been a major boost in enhancing communication as well as other activities especially concerning the economy. When smartphones first came into the market, people could barely afford them due to their high prices that were beyond reach for many people. That was then but now, almost everyone can afford a smartphone with the cheapest smartphone on the Kenyan market at the moment going for as low as 2000 shillings.

The world of smartphones is set to take another twist in terms of affordability as what has been termed as the cheapest smartphone in the world has been launched in India by a small Indian company. The company launched the phone of Wednesday and the world is already excited about it.

The phone will cost a total of 742 shillings, this being the cheapest phone ever and which comes as a dream far from being true for many people. Apple iPhone is 99 percent more in terms of pricing than this phone with the makers of Ringing Bells’ Freedom 251 saying that the phone is as smart as the other with the only difference being in terms of the pricing.

Most cheap smartphones have been known to be coming from China but the entry of India in the already saturated market is set to make the already bigwigs into the field to have a run for their money. Most Chines smartphones have been going for less than 20 US Dollars but this from india at a cost of less than 10 US Dollars is set to shake the market.
