Itel Phones

Choosing an Itel Phone in Kenya

Itel phones are primarily positioned as affordable smartphones for first-time buyers, students, everyday users and customers who need essential Android features without paying premium-brand prices.

The current itel smartphone catalogue includes the A Series, City Series, Power Series and S Series. These ranges cover basic entry-level phones, everyday models, long-battery devices and higher-specification smartphones.

Itel phones are commonly used for:

• Calls and messaging
• WhatsApp
• M-PESA
• Social media
• Online classes
• YouTube
• Light gaming
• Navigation
• Delivery applications
• Small-business communication
• Secondary or backup-phone use

When comparing itel phones in Kenya, check:

• Exact model and series
• Physical RAM
• Extended or virtual RAM
• Internal storage
• Memory-card support
• Processor
• Screen size
• Display resolution
• Refresh rate
• Main camera
• Selfie camera
• Battery capacity
• Charging speed
• 4G or 5G support
• Fingerprint sensor
• Face unlocking
• Android version
• USB connection
• Dust and splash resistance
• Colour
• Warranty
• Stock status

Itel frequently sells several memory configurations of the same model. An itel phone advertised as 8GB RAM may, for example, combine 4GB physical RAM with 4GB virtual RAM. Confirm the physical memory before comparing prices.

Itel A-Series Phones

The A Series is itel’s main entry-level smartphone range.

Models such as the A06, A50, A70, A80, A90, A100 and A200 are intended for customers who need affordable Android smartphones for communication and everyday applications. Itel currently lists these models within its official A-Series catalogue.

Depending on the model, A-Series phones may provide:

• 2GB to 4GB physical RAM
• 32GB to 128GB storage
• HD or HD+ displays
• 4G LTE
• Fingerprint and face unlocking
• USB Type-C charging
• 4,000mAh to 5,000mAh batteries
• 90Hz or 120Hz refresh rates
• Android Go or itel OS

The itel A06 is one of the lowest-priced models in the range. A current Kenyan listing identifies a 2GB/64GB configuration with Android 14 Go, 4G connectivity, a 4,000mAh battery and USB Type-C charging.

The newer A100 and A200 offer higher storage configurations and more recent design and durability features. A Kenyan reference listing places the A100 around KSh 10,500 and the A200 3GB/128GB around KSh 12,500, although stock and final prices should be confirmed.

Itel City-Series Phones

The City Series sits between itel’s basic A-Series models and its more advanced phones.

City models are intended for everyday users who want a more modern design, higher storage, smoother displays and stronger general performance without moving into a high premium price bracket.

The current official range includes the City 100, City 200 and City 200s.

Depending on the exact configuration, City-Series phones may include:

• 4GB physical RAM
• 128GB storage
• High-refresh-rate displays
• Larger batteries
• Faster charging
• Improved dust and splash protection
• Stereo speakers
• Updated Android or itel OS versions

Because City models may have similar names, confirm that the listing refers to the exact City 100, City 200 or City 200s configuration.

Itel Power-Series Phones

Itel’s Power Series focuses on battery life, charging and sustained everyday use.

These phones are suitable for:

• Field workers
• Delivery riders
• Travellers
• Students
• Mobile-hotspot use
• Long commutes
• Areas with inconsistent access to charging

The official Power range includes models such as the Power 55, Power 55+, Power 55 5G, Power 65, Power 70 and Power 80.

The Power 70 is particularly relevant for customers who prioritise battery life. Features vary by market and configuration, so the exact battery capacity, charging speed and included accessories must be verified before publishing.

A large battery does not always mean that a phone charges quickly. Compare both battery capacity and supported charging wattage.

Itel S-Series Phones

The S Series is itel’s more design-, camera- and display-focused range.

Models such as the S24, S25, S25 Ultra and Super 26 Ultra are intended for customers seeking stronger cameras, more storage and more premium styling than the typical entry-level A-Series phone. These models appear in itel’s current official product catalogue.

Depending on the exact model, S-Series phones may provide:

• 4GB to 8GB physical RAM
• 128GB to 256GB storage
• Higher-resolution main cameras
• Higher-refresh-rate displays
• AMOLED displays on selected models
• Faster charging
• Improved build quality
• Better selfie cameras
• More advanced software features

The S25 Ultra and Super 26 Ultra should not be confused with standard S25 or S26 variants. The screen, memory, camera and design may differ significantly.

Kenyan listings currently identify the S25 in a 6GB/128GB configuration, the S25 Ultra in an 8GB/256GB configuration and the S26 Ultra in an 8GB/256GB configuration. Availability differs by retailer, with some models marked out of stock while others remain listed as available.

Itel RAM and Extended Memory

Many itel phones advertise combined memory figures such as:

• 4GB + 4GB
• 8GB extended RAM
• 16GB memory

Part of this figure may be virtual RAM borrowed from internal storage.

For accurate comparison, separate:

• Physical RAM
• Virtual or extended RAM
• Internal storage

Physical RAM has a greater effect on multitasking. Virtual RAM can help applications remain open, but it does not turn a 4GB phone into a true 8GB device.

Itel Storage Options

Common itel storage options include:

• 32GB
• 64GB
• 128GB
• 256GB

A 32GB phone is suitable only for light use. After the operating system and applications are installed, the remaining space may be limited.

A 64GB model is more practical for WhatsApp, mobile money and moderate photography. A 128GB phone is preferable for most everyday buyers, while 256GB is useful for customers storing large numbers of photos, videos and applications.

Confirm whether the phone includes a dedicated microSD slot, a shared SIM slot or no expandable storage.

Itel Cameras

Entry-level itel models commonly use basic main cameras intended for daylight photography, document capture and video calls.

Higher S-Series and selected Power-Series models may include:

• Higher-resolution main sensors
• Portrait mode
• Night mode
• HDR
• AI scene recognition
• Improved selfie cameras
• Full HD video

The stated megapixel count should not be treated as the only measure of quality. Processing, autofocus and low-light performance are equally important.

Itel Phone Prices in Kenya

Current Kenyan references place the itel A06 around KSh 9,000, the A60s around KSh 9,500, the A100 around KSh 10,500 and the A200 3GB/128GB around KSh 12,500.

• Retailer
• Current stock
• Included charger and accessories

Some older models, including individual A50, A70, A80 and A90 listings, are currently marked out of stock or discontinued by particular Kenyan sellers. This does not prove that the models are unavailable nationwide, but supplier stock should be confirmed before publishing them as available.

• Exact model name
• Physical RAM
• Internal storage
• 4G or 5G support
• Android version
• Charger included
• Colour
