Looking for a cheap new smartphone? ZTE has your back. The Chinese phone-maker just unveiled the Overture 2, which runs Android 5.0 Lollipop and costs just $49.99 from Cricket Wireless. Even better, the AT&T-owned provider is offering a $50 rebate once you’ve paid for two months of service
The Overture 2 packs a 4.5-inch display with a resolution of 854 x 480 pixels, a 2100mAh battery, a 1.2GHz quad-core processor, a 5-megapixel rear camera, a front-facing VGA shooter, 4G LTE support, 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage with microSD support for up to 32GB of extra space. It runs what looks like a pretty clean version of Android Lollipop and comes in blue with a plastic textured back.

The ZTE Overture 2 does look like a good $50 smartphone for those who are upgrading from a flip cell phone. I'm surprise that it got a 1.2 GHz Quadcore CPU. 8GB of storage, a MicroSD card slot, 4G LTE, and 5MP rear camera, and a front camera, but still costing $50.
The $50 rebate is a good deal since you just need to pay for 2 month service.
This looks like a good alternative to the Motorola Moto E which cost around $99 without a contract.
