One way to get your hands on an affordable 4G phone is to go back in time. The Lenovo A858W is a 2014 release, but for N26,000, you get a capable 4G LTE smartphone with decent specifications. It runs Android 4.4 Kitkat though, a trade-off that you must be willing to make. Other limitations include a small internal storage, a small capacity battery, and limited 4G bands support.
