Hands On with the Boost Summit 5G
The Boost Summit 5G is a very straightforward phone: it aims to be the most affordable 5G phone in the US, one that Boost can give away for free to new customers. In terms of features and specs, it has everything you'd expect this type of phone to have, and nothing you wouldn't. And yet there are a couple of things about this phone that might surprise you. Read on for our hands-on first impressions and rundown of what you need to know about the Summit 5G.
Boost Launches Sub-$100 5G Phone
Boost Mobile has launched the Summit 5G, a new, Boost-branded 5G phone with a list price of just $95. Boost is further subsidizing the phone, bringing the price to $20 for existing customers, and free for new customers. The Summit 5G is based heavily on the Boost Celero5G SC, which previously held the title of Boost's most affordable 5G phone. The only significant difference is the camera, which is 50 megapixel on the Celero5G SC versus 13 megapixel on the Summit 5G. Both phones have a 6.6-inch display, 5,000 mAh battery, 64 GB of storage (expandable), 4 GB RAM, MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ processor, fingerprint reader, and headset jack. Both phones are manufactured by Coosea, which also makes white-label phones for Cricket.
