Following up on the successes of the Kaduda and Kaduda 2.0 (Kaduda KaSelfie), Telkom Kenya (formerly Orange Kenya) has commenced the sales of the Kaduda Smart. Priced at Ksh 3999 (~ USD 40), the low-cost ZTE-manufactured smartphone is available in Kenya and arrives in either Black or White colours.
Unlike it’s predecessors which are both feature phones, the Kaduda Smart is an entry-level smartphone and runs the now dated Android 5.1 Lollipop OS. The device sports a 4-inch WVGA display and has Dual SIM slots. The first SIM slot is locked to the network while the other is available to others.

The Kaduda Smart comes pre-loaded with apps such as Clean Master Lite, however, it is advisable to install only the essential apps and remove unused ones, as the RAM (512MB) is limited and will only handle simple tasks. For this price tag, the Smart is currently the cheapest smartphone in the Kenyan market and looks set to hold on to the title for much longer.
