Top 5 Best Cheapest 5G Gaming Smartphones 2021 - 2022

what's up guys today we'll be talking about my top five cheapest 5g smartphones that you can pick up today let's get started with




1- Google Pixel 4 A5G

the google pixel 4 a5g this has been an excellent phone that i've been using for a little over a month now and it is a really nice phone so it comes in at around 400 to 450 dollars / 29000INR TO 33000INR  but it's got a plastic design it's not too flashy but it actually looks good compared to what google is used to putting out um so it does have a 6.2 inch oled display and it's 1080p 413 for the ppi does have the punch hole which i like to display the design on this phone the camera module set up everything looks good the display is fairly bright it's very colorful as well it's a really nice oled display so i really had no complaints with that so the benefit with these pixel phones is that you get android 11 of course and you get updates really fast so when android 12 comes out you'll be the first to get the update uh and it's just a stock pure version of android which is going to be just very speedy from my experience you also have the snapdragon 765g which is a processor that you're going to see a lot on this list you have the adreno 620 gpu as well as far as you know gaming performance and stuff like that i had no issues gaming on this phone at all um so you can play call of duty fortnite pub g all those games work on here i just find it's going to do as good as like a flagship phone and max of settings out no but it does play on high settings no problem so this phone unfortunately it does not have any micro sd support you also have 128 gigs of internal storage and 6 gigs of ram on here and you actually have stereo speakers which sound really really good they have really good bass presence mids and highs no distortion just some excellent sound speakers here this phone also comes with nfc for your mobile payments as well as a physical fingerprint uh scanner on the back which works very fast now one of the main things that you would look at this phone for besides the 5g has such a cheap price is the camera so you do have a 12.2 megapixel lens and a 16 megapixel ultra wide it does shoot 4k video with an 8 megapixel selfie absolutely love the cameras on the pixel 4a uh just the detail color accuracy is always great dynamic range the ultrawide takes really good photos as well as the selfie camera video is good not as good as the photos but it is pretty decent um but yeah you're going to be blown away by the just awesome picture quality and this also takes pretty good low light photos as well so this is definitely an excellent excellent camera phone almost pretty much flagship quality uh so you do have actually pretty decent battery life on this phones at 3885 milliamp battery with 18 watt fast charging it's definitely an all-day phone unfortunately i don't live in a 5g area so for the phones i have tested on this list i haven't been able to get 5g but only you know 4g this phone is fine 




2- LG Velvet 5G

next is the LG velvet so this is another awesome 5g phone for around 400 bucks as well this phone has a really nice design probably one of my favorite looking designs on the list it's got a super premium and very unique looking design with a little descending camera module set up and it's a very slim phone as well it's a glass and metal phone as well as ip68 dust and water resistant you also have a massive 6.8 inch display it is a very big and tall phone so you know do note that so it's a pola display so color wise everything is super vibrant you get really deep blacks on this phone uh as well and it's you know it's got a curved display which a lot of people don't like but overall the display is fine i don't really get accidental touches with this one but i would recommend just picking up a case if you're worried about that this phone is upgradable to android 11 with the snapdragon 765 g in adreno 620 again like the pixel uh performance is going to be pretty much the same LG skin is not really super heavy on this phone and from my experience it's fine i don't really have too many lag problems at all with this phone it's very kind of close to stock android so you do have micro sd support 128 gigs of internal storage and six gigs of ram so it's a phone that again can play any game in the google play store just fine you do have stereo speakers which sound great on this phone very loud very good bass quality as well and you also get nfc on board for your mobile payments the fingerprint scanner is under the display which is something that i always prefer because i just think it looks cool um but is it faster than like a physical one i know but this one is very accurate it does work unfortunately there's no face unlock on this phone but it does work so i've never had like an actual complaint with it now this phone does have very good cameras so i noticed that LG fixed a couple things with the android 11 update so i'm excited to get that because i do think the camera does need some tweaking with the software but as you can see from the photos uh it takes really good photos so you have 48 megapixel standard 8 megapixel ultra wide 5 megapixel depth 4k video 16 megapixel selfie 1080p video and as you can see you get some very good color accurate photos very natural colors pretty good detail as well as good dynamic range the mic quality sounds really good on this phone as well too you have different mic effects and stuff like that you can mess with overall it takes some really good photos the front-facing camera is very good too video is pretty solid on this phone as well so i was really impressed with the photos now you do have pretty good battery life at 4 300 milliamp battery and remember this phone is compatible with a dual screen case so if you want to use a dual screen case and turn this into a multitasking beast uh you can do that so it does have like i said 25 watt fast charging wireless charging is on board with this phone as well from my experience this phone is definitely an all-day battery life phone i've never had an issue with getting through the day here but again it will vary if you're on 5g of course 




3- Oneplus 7 T Pro 5G

next is the oneplus 7 t pro 5g so i use the standard 7 pro the only reason i haven't gotten this one because like i said i'm not in a 5g area but it's basically the same phone with like a minor spec update um so you have an excellent design on here it's a glass back aluminum frame it's a very thin phone as well and you do have a curved display on here it's a fluid amoled 90 hertz hdr 10 plus display 6.7 inches so it's a big phone with a 1440p resolution 516 for the ppi the reason i keep this phone is because of the display it's one of the best displays on any smartphone still to this day you have a no notch no poncho no nothing it uses the pop-up camera pretty much edge to edge with that curved display gives it that sort of like effect to where you're just holding you know a screen in your hand so everything is just beautiful on this phone when you're gaming browsing social media whatever the 90 hertz is super smooth on here colors everything just looks super immersive on this display and that is the main reason why i still like this phone now you have android 10 with the latest oxygen os this will be getting the android 11 update and i will be covering that on the channel you have the snapdragon 855 plus and adreno 640 basically this is still a phone that can game pretty much anything whether it's fortnite call of duty you can play all those games on high settings no problem, this phone is that there's no sd card support but if you do get this 5g model the standard version is 256 gig so you get a ton of storage and 12 gigs of ram so it's a very powerful phone when it comes to storage and ram and stuff like that still you know without the sd card uh now you do have really good sounding stereo speakers unfortunately there's no headphone jack on this phone uh but you do have nfc on board for your mobile payments a very fast under the display fingerprint scanner is almost instant one of my favorite fingerprint scanners and you also have pretty good cameras on here triple camera setup 48 megapixel standard 8 megapixel telephoto 16 megapixel ultra wide you get 4k video as well as 1080p for the front and overall you get some really good looking photos pretty good detail depth of field colors um it's not the most amazing photos but i do you know bounce back and forth between the g cam application on here the 7t pro does have a slightly bigger battery but not really i mean the 7 pro has a 4000 this has a 4085 milliamp so it's not really a big improvement but you do have a 30 watt fast charging and this is an all-day phone for me um so i've never had an issue getting through the day on a full charge with this phone at all all right so 




 4- LG v60

last on the list is the LG v60  i know i got like three LG phones on this list but they really are some of the best 5g phones that you can get on a budget um so the v60 you can get for 400 bucks the refurbished version that i have or you can get the new one it is going to cost like 600 bucks so i would recommend just getting a refurbished version um but that's you know completely up to you i love this phone it's a big phone it's a glass and metal phone ip68 dust and water resistant it's a p oled hdr 10 plus 6.8 inches 1080p 395 for the ppi uh so it's a big you know phone big display so if you don't like big phones you're definitely not going to like this phone um but you got a beautiful display super colorful uh blacks look really deep um you know just a really nice display it does have a little bit more bezel than i think it should have but you do have the water drop notch which was a big upgrade from the v50 and overall i have no issues with the display i would have liked to seen uh you know at least 90 hertz on here uh but you have android 10 with the lg skin uh which is fine it works you know very fast have you seen any of my speed tests this is a super fast phone with the snapdragon 865 chip and the adreno 650 this is a beast when it comes to gaming multitasking if you get the dual screen case it really becomes one of the best multitasking phones out there now you do have micro sd support and 128 gigs of internal storage and eight gigs of ram on here so again super powerful phone when it comes to multitasking and just performance in general uh so you have still to me some of the best sounding speakers i think second to the rog phone or the rogue phone three and uh if you see my speaker test they go head to head these are some super loud and really high quality sounding speakers you also have the headphone jack with the quad deck so you get super high quality audio on here so this is probably like the best phone for audio on this list so you do have nfc on board with this phone as well as the fingerprint scanner under the display you have very good cameras on here triple camera setup a 64 megapixel standard 13 megapixel ultra wide plus a depth sensor along with 8k video you also have a 10 megapixel selfie camera that also shoots 4k as you can see from the photos very highly detailed you get really good selfies on here dynamic range it's nice the color science is very natural which is something that i always love on here i've never felt the need to install g camera or anything because it does take really good photos by itself now this phone also has excellent battery life with a 5000 milliamp battery uh with wireless charging so the phone by itself i can't speak uh the dual screen case is going to drain the battery life a little bit more but honestly the phone by itself really does last at least two days for me uh so you really this is not a phone you have to charge at all really uh when it's on a full charge so it's got amazing standby time just excellent battery life it really is a beast on uh battery life all right so 



5- LG v50

last is the LG v50 and i was sort of going back and forth between uh this phone and the oneplus nord 10 and 10 which is also a very good phone but you can pick the nord up for the same price as the v50 but i think the v50 is still the better phone for sure but the thing about the v50 is you have to get an unlocked version or the verizon version which i'll link down below because the sprint version does not support 5g anymore since the merger and stuff like that so you do have a full premium design on here it's ip68 dust and water resistant you have a p oled display at 6.4 inches it's a 1440p display beautiful display when it comes to just how sharp it is and the colors and how the blacks look everything is super nice on this display it's 5 38 for the ppi i have a little notch up top as well it is upgradable to android 10 these got the snapdragon 855 adreno 640 again a very powerful phone this is a phone that you can play games on high settings no problem you also have micro sd support 128 gigs of internal storage and six gigs of brown this phone actually has the headphone jack with the quad deck as well as some very nice soundy stereo speakers as well as nfc your physical fingerprint scanner is on the back end what i love about this phone is that uh the 5g logo lights up which is always really cool i've never really seen that on any other phone i just thought it was a little cool addition to have i think it was one of the first like 5g phones to come out you also have very good cameras on the v50 at 12 megapixel standard 12 megapixel telephoto 16 megapixel ultra wide with 4k video you also have a dual camera setup up front which is really nice so that's why you have that space there with a notch because you have a wide lens for taking like group selfies and stuff like that if you do a lot of that then that is super beneficial and this phone has excellent battery life as well you have a 4000 milliamp battery uh with wireless charging as well as 18 watt fast charging so this is a phone that can last me all day no problem easily eight hours of screen on time so what do you guys think be sure to let me know and i'll catch you guys in the next one
