Looking for as cheap as possible phone for my aunt

[CrownSA]

Hey guys, looking for a cheap phone for my aunt, i currently have the inew v3, and she told me she doesnt need something as pricey as this (i know its cheapish, but she just really wants something cheap, with internet and if it has gps thatd be great) so im really just looking for a good cheap phone
not too sure what you guys would think, ive looked at a few,

so the cheapest i found was the
Star W450, i saw another member posted about it but was told to get the Jiake jk12 or jk11
whats so abd about the w450, on aliexpress that phone seems to have the most sales?
id also prefer to have a phone with some support, although i understand that its very rare many people will buy phones for less than 100 hoping for support, but if there are some itd be great,
so what id really like in the phone is
> As Cheap as a good deal you can give,
> preferably 1GB ram
> quad core? is it worth it?
> if it can have a working gps thats a major bonus,
> decent camera

i understand that its not easy to find any "good" phones for this price range, but keep in mind that if you think the phone is really worth it, i can spend some more, any recommendations are great

i was having a look at the Jiayu G2F is it good?
thanks alot any help is appreciated

Both are good cheap, phones, I have a DK C30 myself, w450 is very similar to my phone, in fact files from my phone fixed the GPS on a guy's w450, The w450 has a few roms available for it including MIUI v5.

[CrownSA]

have you had any problems with the w450? i saw on somebody elses post that 8/10 w450s have problems and alot of people on EU forums say its very unreliable?
the dk c30 looks good i guess, only thing is its 512mb ram,
miui would be great but now seeing the miui experience can be gotten on any phone it isnt "thaaaat" significant a pro
ive been looking alot at the jiake jk11 and it looks like really really good value for money, andapparently no gps problems. camera being 5mp do you think thats too bad? or how good/bad.

I don't have a w450, just know it's similar to my phone, the jiake jk11 sounds good also, I know nothing about it, but the specs are good.

ooh right , i thought u had a w450, but say i rule that one out,
in your opinon what looks the best between the jiake jk11, the jiayu g2f and the thl t5s,
considering the brand names obviously but pricewise too, as id like to keep the price as low as possible, but obviously if the brands are "GOOOD" then yeah, also another thing is i couldnt find the jiake on 1949deal.com so id have to purchase from aliexpress, which doesnt have the safety as 1949deal.com but id be prepared to do so as thats where i bought my inew v3

If you ask 1949deal.com, he might be able to get the phone for you, I am wanting to order my phones through 1949deal.com as well, cause they sponsor this forum.

jiake jk 12 , look cheap, but the touch is not really functioning.
i had one received back from my friend, and try to solve the touch problem.
if i go to factory mode, the test of the touch screen is not good, it it about 1cm away from the touch at the bottom part, upper part is ok, but when u go near the edge of the phone, then the touch start to go out of position.

by tommorrow, i should have another same phone, and will try to check if the touch is just the individual phone's problem or it is the whole JK12.

will update the info by tomorrow

[CrownSA]

thanks, looking forward to it

[stevenma61]

ok, check with the second recieved.
just the same as all the china phone i received before
the touch is ok

, that mean the first one has problem with the touch.
i backed up the rom from the second and flashed it to the first, one, still the touch is out of position.

trying to figure out how to calibrate the touch.
