In a world where flagships are easily selling for over $1,000, one might think there are no more affordable phones on the market. Well, Huawei tends to break that stigma with its latest device that costs just about $100 - Honor Play 3e.

The Honor Play 3e comes with MT6762R chipset by MediaTek, coupled with 2 GB RAM and 32 GB storage. There is also a variant with 3/64 GB memory, which is slightly more expensive. The back panel is occupied by a single 13 MP camera and a neat design.
