The Alcatel A30 is a $99 Android Nougat phone (or just $59 with Amazon ads)

Besides adding the Motorola Moto G5 Plus to its Prime Exclusive offer, Amazon today also started taking pre-orders for the Alcatel A30, a brand new smartphone that costs less than $100 and will be released on April 19.

Amazon Prime members can purchase the handset for just $59.99, but they'll get Amazon offers and ads on the home screen. If you want to buy the Alcatel A30 without Amazon ads, you'll have to pay $99.99 - that's still not a bad price for what the device has to offer.

Running Android 7 Nougat, the Alcatel A30 sports a 5-inch display __with 720 x 1280 pixels, and is powered by a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 210 processor clocked at 1.1 GHz. There's 2 GB of RAM on board, in addition to 16 GB of expandable storage space. The new smartphone further comes __with speakers on the front, an 8 MP rear camera, and a 5 MP front-facing cam.

The Alcatel A30 can be purchased from Amazon unlocked in both GSM (for AT&T and T-Mobile), and CDMA (for Verizon) variants. You'll get LTE connectivity in both cases. Any takers?
