An Android phone of $ 100 may seem too good to be true, but that’s exactly what Nuu N10 is. This incredibly cheap phone comes with Android 14 and Gemini cooked, and it has no Bloatware. I was offered the possibility of testing the device, and I thought, how bad it could be? Only one way to discover it – using it.
So use it, I did it.
I was fully prepared for an entirely odious experience with Nuu N10. When a company refuses to disclose the name of the phone processor, it can only be assumed that it is ashamed of it. But the specification sheet is not all waste, and even an unnamed octa-core processor of 1.6 GHz can work quite well.
Throughout my tests, I felt the need to periodically remember that this phone costs only $ 100. He attenuated a large part of my severe judgment because, really, how much can you (or should you) expect this amount of money?
It’s crazy what $ 100 will do you …
Unlike past nuu models, the N10 promotes the full Android 14 on the lighter Android Go version of the operating system, probably because it has 4 GB of RAM, which can be extended to 8 GB using the Local storage via virtual RAM.
It is not much, but Nuu promises a year of software updates for all its phones. As mentioned earlier, the phone comes with absolutely no preinstalled Bloatware, and it also has advertisements. Overall, the Android 14 experience is very neat and clean.
Rights such as water or dust IP ratings and support for CDMA carriers are missing here. You can always use the N10 N10 on GSM carriers like T-Mobile and Mvno as Mint Mobile or Telo.
But it is nevertheless a budget phone
Let’s be real; It is practically impossible that something that is affordable is a versatile. Nuu should lose money to happen. So, although there are many winning characteristics of the N10, there are also a lot to feel.
Aside from the plastic body, the screen simply does not become shiny enough. You will really have trouble with the use of the outdoors, especially during the day with the sun that shines powerfully.
Then there is the configuration of the speaker, which defies common sense. Nuu N10 has lower speakers that seem horrible, with an informed audio which is almost completely stifled by the user’s hand during the orientation of the landscape.
The microphone does not give better results either, does not capture the full range of voice, but in a way to pick up background noises and occasional echoes.
I could have forgiven all these crimes to a certain extent, but it is crazy that the N10 N10 is only delivered with a 13MP primary camera and an unnecessary 2MP macro lens. The main objective is Godawful at work.
The so-called “AI” camera does nothing for the quality of the image, which lacks in detail, in depth and in balance of colors. Forget to capture photos in the pulse of the moment because the camera of the N10 gives you blurred photos even if you flash too aggressively. The 5MP front camera is not better either, with a poorly functional face unlocking.
This is an excellent first phone for children to start
Nuu has incorporated large parental commands into the N10, making this phone ideal for pre -adolescents or adolescents. Since the phone is not expensive, the attraction is much higher for young audiences who cannot afford more expensive or who are not allowed to have premium phones.
Given the price and quality of construction, the NU1 N10 is an ideal start -up phone for children. If he breaks, it will not hurt their tutors because the investment is so weak at the start. Parental controls add a layer of comfort. And without heavy bloatware installed, the device works well enough so that children can use daily without being stuck or suspended.
During the longest, I could not imagine any brand other than Xiaomi when consideration of such a tight budget. And let’s be honest, the only reason for which Xiaomi is able to sell you a cheap phone ornate is because it is full of bloatware and clumsy ads. It’s a wonder how little this phone costs, despite its things.
The long and the short is that it is a cheap Android phone without creature comfort. It does not seem immediately cheap, but it certainly looks like a certain measure. Dulne audio equipment also has profitable features. Nevertheless, Nuu N10 is one of the few Android phones of $ 100 that can be used without snatching all the hair from your head. If you are in a pinch, it will do the trick.
Not half bad
For the price, the N10 N10 is not so bad after all. You get a very clean Android experience and stored with goodies, Gemini and features and features such as a headphone jack and extensible storage.
