Chatting on WhatsApp has become essential in their daily lives for millions of people. And it is that having this messaging app has become something basic for many. And if you are wondering which is the cheapest mobile with access to this app, yes, there is, and it costs just over 40 euros.
And it is that communicating with WhatsApp is no longer expensive, far from it, quite the opposite, because we have very cheap options at our disposal that even have to have Android as an operating system to work.
The cheapest, with KaiOS
If we think of cheap mobiles, there are many of 100 euros or something less with Android that offer us this possibility, that of chatting with WhatsApp. But we wanted to go further and know which mobile is really going to cost us less money, taking into account that it has WhatsApp . And there are some mobiles with an operating system called KaiOS , which is not Android, although Google has already been behind it for a while. An operating system designed for basic mobiles, like the Nokia of a lifetime.
Well, these mobiles are usually cheaper than an Android, for the most part, and we have looked at one on Amazon, which does not cost even 50 euros, in fact its price is only 44.99 euros , and it is true, It is not from a known brand, quite the opposite.
It is the TTfone 240 , a lifelong mobile phone, but one that counts as a great incentive with WhatsApp. All this thanks to the KaiOS operating system it has. This not only gives us access to WhatsApp, but also to Google Maps, Google Duo, Gmail, YouTube or Facebook , and it even has the Google assistant, which is totally surprising on a mobile of this type.
Of course, do not expect anything advanced, quite the opposite. Since this phone is even compatible with 4G, it can only connect to 3G networks , so we will chat with some peace of mind. It also has a screen of only 2 inches, and a rather poor resolution. The camera is VGA resolution , so it is just enough to take a decent photo in good lighting conditions. It has a classic physical keyboard, so the entire interface of the phone is controlled through it, there is no touch screen. In short, it is like a return to the past, but with something that many look for in the present, being able to chat with WhatsApp. Something that with the Google assistant is simpler, because it is not necessary to type the phrases on this keyboard, but only to dictate them.
