The Poco C55 is one of the most well-rounded phones in this budget segment. It comes with a lot to like, including a 6.71-inch HD+ resolution display with a 60Hz refresh rate. This display offers very good viewing angles, and is also certified by Widevine L3 certified, which means users can stream SD content at 480p resolution on this device. Under the hood, the Poco C55 houses among the powerful and gaming-centric chip, the MediaTek Helio G85 SoC paired with up to 6GB RAM, which facilitates the smooth performance and multitasking for the device. For the power users and enthusiasts in the sub-₹8k segment, the Poco C55 also comes with expandable storage, so you will dictate the terms of the storage on your device.

The Samsung Galaxy M04 is also a good multitasked for the price. The smartphone is powered by a MediaTek Helio P35 SoC under the hood, which gives the smartphone enough power to run applications of daily use on the big 6.5-inch HD+ LCD display, which is bright but not the most stunning or vibrant display we have seen in this segment. The phone also comes with Android 12 out of the box, and is also future proof in the updates department with Samsung promising four years of security updates and two OS upgrades even in the budget segment. So if you want something that is reliable, has enough power to take care of all tasks, and is a long lasting option, the Samsung Galaxy M04 is for you.

  • Rear camera mega pixel
    13MP | 5 MP
  • Storage
    32GB / 3GB
  • Battery capacity (mAh)
    5100 mAh Battery
Redmi 10A is a good offering which comes with pretty much all you’d want in a budget smartphone. It has a good, albeit single lens camera set-up at the back and also a capable front camera for selfies. The display on the phone again is good for the price, with the phone getting a 6.53-inch HD+ IPS display capable of reaching decent peaks at 400 nits. The processor inside is also good for handling simple apps and the occasional game you throw at it. This is the MediaTek Helio G25 SoC, which may not be the most powerful chip on a phone, but is definitely more than good enough to be on a phone in this budget smartphone list. This package is kept alive using a 5000mAh battery pack. However, there’s no fast charging on this one, so that’s a consideration which needs to be made before making a buying decision.
pros Pros
  • Decent performance
  • Good battery life
  • Large display
cons Cons
  • Unimpressive cameras
  • No fast charging
  • Not for gamers

  • Rear camera mega pixel
    13MP | 5 MP
  • Storage
    32GB / 2GB
  • Battery capacity (mAh)
    5000 mAh Battery
The Redmi 9A Sport is another reliable budget offering from Xiaomi. The smartphone features a 6.53-inch HD+ display, which is very good if you are someone who consumes a lot of content on your smartphone. And in order to keep you going with the movies and TV shows, there is a big 5,000mAh battery that goes on for up to two days if you are a light user, and one and a half days if you are a heavy user. While the battery backup is decent, the charging on the Redmi 9A Sport is slow by today's standards. The Redmi 9A Sport is powered by a MediaTek Helio G25 SoC, which is good enough to take care of all the basic functionalities. We also get a workable camera setup with a 13-megapixel rear shooter and 5-megapixel selfie snapper. The Redmi 9A Sport is a very complete offering under a very affordable price tag.

  • Rear camera mega pixel
    8 +0.08MP | 5 MP
  • Storage
    32GB / 2GB
  • Battery capacity (mAh)
    5000 mAh Battery
The Redmi A1 is one of the best looking and most popular Android Go phones that you can buy right now. Although it is an entry level offering and comes with a polycarbonate unibody design, the smartphone feels super solid and very premium in the hand, thanks to the leather-like pattern on the back panel. The display display is not the largest, but with a 6.52-inch size, it is big enough for all kinds of users, and the brightness is pretty good for media consumption. The processor is also good for the price, with the MediaTek Helio A22 SoC that we have seen on many smartphones at a higher price point. Probably the safest option if you are looking for something stylish, reliable, and long-lasting.
pros Pros
  • Value for money
  • Well built
  • Large display
  • long battery life
  • Android 12
cons Cons
  • Micro USB

Realme C30

  • Rear camera mega pixel
    8MP | 5 MP
  • Storage
    32GB / 2GB
  • Battery capacity (mAh)
    5000 mAh Battery
The Realme C30 is a good option if you’re looking for a phone with a big, bright and vibrant display, along with a big battery, but on a tight budget. The 6.5-inch panel on the device is an IPS display which has a rather dull pixel density of only 270 ppi – a decent number is you plan on using the phone for browsing the web and reading news on the phone, but not the best if you want to consume HD content. It also offers workable viewing angles for times when you want to watch movies and TV shows, or when you want to glance through notifications of your home screen. The cameras on the device are also good for the price, with the Realme C30 featuring a single 8MP f/2.0 Wide-Angle lens that’s decent for day-time photography.
pros Pros
  • Value for money
  • Large battery capacity
  • Big display for watching
  • Dedicated microSD card slot
cons Cons
  • Micro USB port

  • Battery capacity (mAh)
    5000 mAh Battery
This one’s a device that offers a sporty, ultra-slim design and decent in hand feel along with a display that’s good for watching movies and shows – at least for the price. In fact, the latter is definitely the highlight of the device. Paired with the 5000mAh battery pack on the phone, the device’s display enables long-runtimes for browsing the web and tasks of daily use. There’s also an 8-megapixel camera on the phone for times when you want to click the occasional picture.
