Ruslan Kogan, the company's CEO and founder, said: "I applaud companies like Google releasing devices such as the Nexus 5, which at about £300 is priced better than Samsung's Galaxy S5 or Apple's iPhone.
"But all these phones are still too expensive for many people. We're releasing a quality device that smashes the competition on the price, yet packs all the features consumers expect from a high end smartphone."
The Agora 4G smartphone is the latest Kogan product the promise high performance for a low cost, with the company having also entered the TV and tablet markets as well.
