Bell has launched a new smartphone brand called Ahlo.
The carrier says the phone has been designed in Canada with “value-conscious users” in mind. That said, it’s likely assembled in other parts of the world. So far, Bell hasn’t shared the phone’s manufacturer.
The phone is now available for $270 outright or $1 per month at Bell or Virgin Plus (for a limited time) — a steal compared to $1,161 or $32 per month for the iPhone 16. You can also buy it through various Canadian retailers, but this deal price appears to be locked to Bell/Virgin’s network.
The new smartphone is aimed at “value-conscious users” with a far cheaper price tag than competitors.
Here are some of its specs and features:
- 6.58″ FHD+ display
- 50MP quad camera
- 5,000 mAh battery
- 5G connectivity
- Fingerprint scanner
- Android 14 OS
- USB-C connectivity (cable included)
- 24-month warranty
The phone will be available through Bell and its Virgin Plus flanker brand, as well as the following retailers:
- Best Buy Express
- The Mobile Shop
- Staples
- Tbooth wireless
- Visions Electronics
- Wireless Kiosk @Costco
- WirelessWave
