This week at Aldi: 79-euro smartphone for bargain hunters
From this week Aldi has a mobile phone on offer again. At 79.99 euros, the price initially sounds tempting, especially since there is also a starter set from Aldi Talk with a 10-euro credit. We'll tell you whether the purchase is really worth it.
Aldi offers entry-level smartphone Realme C11 for 79.99 euros
For many people, the name "Aldi" is synonymous with low prices. So if the discounter offers a smartphone, you can expect not to have to pay the crazy prices of current flagship models. With a price of 79.99 euros (view at Aldi Nord), the Realme C11 fulfills this expectation. It will be available from Aldi Nord from 24 February . But what about the features of the Aldi cell phone?
There, buyers have to make some compromises, as a look at the key technical data shows:
6.5-inch display (1,600 x 720 pixels) Unisoc processor (eight cores, maximum 1.6 GHz) 2 GB RAM 32 GB memory (expandable) 8 MP main camera 5 MP front camera 5,000 mAh battery Android 11This places the Aldi cell phone at the lower end of the performance scale. The Realme C11 shouldn't be able to do more than the simplest tasks (WhatsApp, some surfing or telephoning). At least the device should have a good battery life thanks to the combination of a large battery and low-end hardware.
Important to know : The Aldi offer is apparently the Realme C11 in the 2021 version. There is also a technically slightly better variant of the Realme cell phone from the previous year.
A lot is known about Aldi. But in the video we reveal lesser-known facts:
As a second cell phone or for smartphone newcomers
So who is the Realme C11 worth it for? Around 80 euros is not a lot of money and is significantly cheaper than smartphones in the middle or upper range. There is also a starter set from Aldi Talk with a starting credit of 10 euros. However, the meager equipment cannot be explained away.
The Aldi cell phone is therefore only recommended as a second cell phone or for absolute smartphone newcomers, such as pensioners. If you want to spend more money and have higher demands, you will find alternatives in our special topic: Smartphones up to 400 euros in the test: 5 cell phones from Samsung, Xiaomi & Co.
