AT&T’s lineup of affordable smartphones expanded on Friday with the unveiling of the ZTE Maven. This $59.99 device comes equipped with 4G LTE wireless service, Android 5.1 and, best of all, doesn’t require an annual commitment. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a cheaper phone with better specs from any of the major service providers.

The company also announced the ZTE Sonata 2, a handset now available from Cricket Wireless for $29.99 with a phone line activation or an eligible upgrade. This sequel phone features a 4-inch display, 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 5-megapixel rear camera, 2-megapixel front camera, 32GB of expandable storage and runs on Android 4.4 KitKat.
