LastPass
relieves the stress around
keeping
track of all of your passwords
and
losing access to your accounts now
I've
personally been using LastPass for
over
five years now way before they ever
sponsored
the channel with - pass you
never
have to remember or write down
another
password again not only will it
keep
all of them safe and secure inside
your
LastPass vault but on top of that
you
can even generate random passwords
for
each individual site you know if
you're
one of those people who uses the
same
one-two-three-four password on
every
single site don't do that bad idea
use
LastPass and LastPass even works on
sites
as well as apps on mobile devices
such
as iOS and Android you can even
unlock
your vault with just your
fingerprint
or face and with access to
advanced
two-factor authentication
options
such as a Yubikey LastPass it's
not
only convenient but it's a safe way
of
keeping all your passwords secure
online
if you aren't already using
LastPass
you should definitely check it

this video now let's get into
some
cheap smartphones
starting
out with we have the blue
advance
a for one of the more popular
options
on Amazon at $55 with nearly a
thousand
reviews inside you will find a
quad-core
processor but it's backed up
by
only 512 megabytes of RAM eight gigs
of
storage as well as the brand new and
incredibly
cutting-edge Android 6.0 yeah
ok
that's some very high-end packaging
but
I hope the batteries in in this
because
this is incredibly light Wow
so
believe it or not this is actually a
4-inch
display which at one time was
considered
large for smartphone but this
this
just seems tiny Wow we actually
have
a lot of accessories Cinelli is
that
our battery but there's also a case
we've
got our micro USB for charging as
well
as our power adapter and is that a
screen
protector all right now bad 455
bucks
next
up we had the kenzan v5 at a
whopping
51 dollars now this one this
one's
got a little bit of a higher spec
I
think yeah look at that we've got a
full
one gig of ram a 1500 million power
battery
as well as android 7.0
that's
actually a lot better than six at
least
oh wow that's that's very white
okay
all right
oh
wait it's gold on the back for style
it's
definitely a little bit of a unique
look
this is also another four inch foam
which
by 2018 standards feels absolutely
tiny
but I gotta say I actually kind of
don't
hate it I miss the days of smaller
smartphones
pop open the box and we had
the
charger with an attached micro USB
cable
as well look at that we've got
ourselves
a headphone a pair of
headphones
to be more specific it's very
impressive
and what is I hope a package
yes
that has a headphone jack
I
need that last but not least we have
the
do GX 10s now with a massive budget
of
$62 this is the most expensive phone
here
but if you take a look at the specs
it
actually doesn't look too bad so on
top
of having a 5-inch display instead
of
4-inch we do have a much larger 3300
milliamp
hour battery and importantly
Android
8.1 or Yogo Edition wait a
minute
oh I thought the phone was orange
for
a second I got really excited so
wait
so Nelly it has a case on it dude
this
is actually a metal phone look at
that
Wow so this does come with a screen
protector
in the box as well as it looks
like
to be a charger and the bottom we
have
our micro USB cable and some random
accessories
that I'm never gonna read so
with
all three phones charged up and
updated
let's start with the blue
advance
a four
the
issue here is that this just feels
ancient
middle east made out of
incredibly
cheap plastic but also the
hardware
itself just feels really out of
date
and I'm sure this is okay a couple
years
ago but right now there's just
better
phones even you're buying the
cheapest
things on Amazon the Kin phone
I
will definitely say has a lot of flair
kind
of like the real Ken himself so
what
I like about this is that it is a
little
bit of a unique look right and I
think
especially when you're talking
about
a phone that costs you $50 it's
completely
unlocked that you can get
straight
from Amazon that's cool but
there
are definitely some downsides and
the
big one is the screen if you look at
it
directly head-on it's okay but as
soon
as you start tilting it off to the
side
the viewing angles are well they
leave
a lot to be desired on top of that
this
is only a 480 by 800 screen that
resolution
my friends should have been
left
in 2010 where it belongs not in
2018
on a well to be fair $51
but
which brings us to the do G a phone
which
actually feels usable in 2018 so
first
of all it's a bigger phone having
a
5-inch display instead of a 4-inch
panel
looks a lot nicer and on top of
that
it is a much nicer display it is
IPS
and while the actual resolution is
still
480 by 854 the actual screen
itself
it's much brighter it seems you
know
usable and not garbage Talent like
everything
else it also feels pretty
decent
in the hand now yeah it is a
little
bit on the heavy side if you pop
off
the back what you do find is that
massive
3300 milliamp hour battery
you're
sorry 30 360 million power
battery
which is back here a little side
note
with a digi phone you if you
actually
buy one of these you actually
should
take off the back panel because
there's
a little plastic tab which keeps
the
battery contacts from being
connected
to the phone there's been a
time
or two where I picked up a digi
phone
and thought it was broken and I
just
had to you know remove that piece
of
plastic
protip
of course we do have the included
pair
of headphones that come with the
Ken
phone which means that I've got a um
I
guess I should listen to the radio
right
does that seem fair I mean like
Jesus
song I'm not doing this for no
reason
I have to get serviced or I have
to
get a radio station why am i
listening
to radio on a $50 phone from
Amazon
this is this is a poor choice of
my
time this is running Android 8.1 go
edition
now that's a fairly up-to-date
version
of Android but importantly it
has
almost no bloatware and there are go
specific
versions of a lot of Google
Apps
such as Gmail YouTube Google etc
now
these are very very small versions
of
the apps so you can kind of consider
them
like lightweight versions and only
three
to five megabytes for a lot of
them
but what that means is that now is
it
going to be nice on that small 8 gigs
of
storage onboard but also gives you a
lot
of other options to conserve things
like
data what's nice about Android Go
is
that it is specifically meant to run
on
a very low-end device like this the
other
phones are running standard
Android
and while it kind of works it's
actually
a bit of a smoother experience
here
of course no phone comparison can
be
complete without taking a look at the
cameras
because you know a $50 phone on
Amazon
to probably have a great camera
right
so starting out with we have the
blue
advanced a4 with a 5 megapixel rear
facing
camera there's some color there's
like
some blue and some black and a
little
bit of
not
spread not great not too
surprising
but that's definitely not all
that
impressive but we do have is not
only
a two megapixel front facing camera
but
it has a flash
Ready
Set whoa that is straight potato
mode
to be feared this is one of the
cheapest
smart phones we can find on
Amazon
but let's let's step it up to the
Kenji
phone wow this is uh that's
impressive
it literally took like five
seconds
to take the photo and that is
awful
that is that's not even funny
that's
turn off HDR oh we've got the
makeup
effects yeah let's turn on the
make-up
effect I feel it that's gonna be
a
good move hopefully that qualifies as
a
makeup effect I think that qualifies
as
the opposite of crispy that's the
softest
photo I may have ever seen I'm
really
hoping that doogee is able to
pull
it out for us right now because
this
is really depressing oh wow this
actually
looks like a real camera so
take
a shot here that's actually
perfectly
respectable I mean it's not
super
sharp it doesn't make any kind of
modern
smartphone look bad but it is
much
much better than the other two
switch
over to that front facing camera
Wow
look at that there's actual color I
mean
there's not a lot of color but this
feels
much more like a modern smartphone
I'm
gonna say this do g4 a little over
$60
is really impressive especially
considering
that it has that giant
battery
inside going into this video I
had
low expectations but I've got to say
considering
just how much smartphone
you're
able to get for so cheap it's
really
actually not too bad and if
you're
brave enough to give the cheapest
smartphones
on Amazon a try the links
will
be in the description but beware
it's
actually not that bad
it
just sounds spooky and scary if I
make
it sound like they're all terrible
and
in fact they actually just totally
reasonable
sort of decently priced
respectful
responsible clever choices
good
way to spend your money
