MetroPCS, the largest prepaid service in the U.S., has officially announced that it will carry Huawei’s latest ultra-affordable Android smartphone, the Valiant, which is available to purchase from the carrier’s website as from today.

The Valiant is a respectable entry-level handset, comprising of a 4-inch capacitive touchscreen with Gorilla Glass, a 1GHz dual-core processor, 2GB of internal storage (expandable to 32GB via microSD), a 3-megapixel rear-facing camera and a 1,750 mAh battery. The device will ship running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, skinned with Huawei’s famous customizable UI.

MetroPCS is offering the Valiant for a budget-friendly fee of $79 off contract. Meaning you can top-up and use the phone whenever you wish, with no strings attached.

This handset doesn’t pack much of a punch by any means, but it’s definitely one of the most affordable smartphones on the market.
