In the exciting continuation of our Best Phones You Can Get Under $100 series, Jordan has compared the performance of our Best Phones Under $100. Admittedly, none of these phones are top of the line flagship devices. It is to be expected that performance will be low. But what is the actual performance of these cheap devices? Jordan has compared the performance on his contenders and declared a winner, if you can call that winning.
Remember, Jordan vowed to use four budget phones as his daily drivers to test them out and crown the King of Sub-$100 Phones! In the first video, Jordan introduced us to his four contenders and discussed why they were picked. Additionally, he unboxed the Blu Studio C, the Samsung Galaxy J1 (Verizon Edition), the LG Leon (T-Mobile Edition), and the Moto E (AT&T Edition). For those short on time, Jordan created a compilation of the unboxings like nothing you have ever seen. Cameras were compared on these devices as well.
T-Mobile LG Leon ($90)
BLU Studio C ($100)
Verizon Galaxy J1 ($80)
AT&T Moto E ($75)

LG recently made an announcement on being the first OEM to release an OTA update for Android 6.0 Marshmallow. This update has only started going out out to LG G4 owners in Poland though, but XDA Recognized Contributor autoprime is helping out anyone with an LG G4 with the model number H815. The firmware is available in TWRP flashable ZIP files as well as a KDZ file.
Tasker, the most popular and complex Android automation app, has received a new beta update that fixes many issues stemming from the Marshmallow update. Because Tasker requires so many permissions and sensors, it’s no surprise that 6.0’s doze mode interferes with Tasker. You can see the changelog here or follow the external link to the download page for the beta. An interesting new feature is the Cyanogenmod custom Tasker tile, which allows you to create your own tile to launch Tasker tasks.
