There are good smartphones available for the price, there are great smartphones for the price, and then there is the newly unveiled Umidigi G9 5G. It was just presented in Hong Kong at the 2024 Global Sources Mobile Electronics show, and it has an incredible price: just £99.99.
Despite its incredibly low cost, the specs of the Umidigi G9 5G are actually quite impressive. Let’s dive into them. To achieve its affordable price, the G9 5G utilizes a Unisoc chipset, specifically the T765. This chipset includes an octa-core CPU with two Cortex-A76 cores clocked at 2.3GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2.1GHz.

The Umidigi G9 5G is paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It features a 6.75-inch 90 Hz LCD touchscreen, a 50 MP main rear camera, a 2 MP macro camera, a 2 MP depth sensor, an 8 MP selfie camera, and impressively, a 5000 mAh battery squeezed into its 7.9 mm thin body.
It’s uncertain which version of Android this phone runs on as it’s not yet listed on Umidigi’s website. Also, we don’t anticipate any software support for it, so it’s not all perfect. Nonetheless, it serves as an enticing demonstration of what £100 can get you in terms of specs today.
