BEST MOBILE PHONES UNDER 30000 IN INDIA

The prices of flagship-class smartphones have skyrocketed over the past few years, and it isn’t shocking at all to see people spend more than Rs. 70,000 for the latest iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, and Google Pixel models. Thankfully, if your budget isn’t quite so generous, you can get very nearly the same performance, features, and style for less than half as much. The sub-Rs. 30,000 category has plenty of options, and some of the recently launched models at this price level even boast of features that much more expensive flagships don’t have yet.

If you can spend up to Rs. 30,000, you can get yourself a phone that does it all. You don’t have to compromise on camera quality, battery life, or modern conveniences. Some of our picks for the best smartphones priced below Rs. 30,000 might surprise you with their features, such as the Vivo V15 Pro’s pop-up selfie camera and in-display fingerprint sensor, or the Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018)’s four rear cameras.

We review hundreds of smartphones each year and put them through a number of tests to see whether they’re good enough to recommend. We check out their performance, cameras, displays, batteries, software, and physical construction quality, and we also tell you everything you need to know about how they hold up in day-to-day use. The following phones have scored the highest across the board, so you know that you’re getting the best possible bang for your buck.

Here are our current picks for the best smartphones priced below Rs. 30,000.

The Realme 12 Pro+ offers a vegan-leather design for its rear panel and also has a very watch-like fluted metal ring around its revamped cameras. The phone isn’t just about a fancy design, but also packs in a solid IP65 rating for dust and water resistance.

Its processor offers more than enough capability to handle day to day tasks and multitasking, but also offers decent gaming performance. The phone also offers the latest Android 14 software but comes loaded with bloatware, which thankfully isn’t intrusive and does not affect the software experience.

Apart from its design, the phone’s biggest highlight are its cameras. While the primary camera performs well in all types of lighting conditions, the telephoto camera is the showstopper, offering excellent capability at native focal lengths in all types of lighting conditions.

Battery life is top notch and the phone easily lasts a day and half with regular use. Charging speeds are also relatively good.

Display 6.70-inch, 2400x1080 pixels
Processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2
RAM 12GB
Storage 256GB
Battery Capacity 5000mAh

Front Camera 32MP

The Nothing Phone 2a Plus is carved out from the skin as Nothing Phone 2a. The device offers the same Glyph interface, which is interesting to use and offers a transparent back panel for a unique design element. The handset also has an updated processor that performs well at this price segment. The Nothing Phone 2a Plus also brings a clean user interface that definitely stands out from the rest of the competition. The camera capabilities are good, and you also get some good battery life. That said, the cameras offer better performance as compared to the Nothing Phone 2a, but it still needs some improvements. So, if you are looking for a mid-range Nothing phone with some improvements, you can consider Nothing Phone 2a Plus.

The Honor 200 offers a stunning design, which makes it stand out from the crowd. The handset offers a crisp display, making it an ideal multimedia device. The Honor 200 also brings decent performance, though looking at the competition, it may appear to be an underdog. However, the camera is where the Honor 200 stands out from the competition. The phone takes some perfect photos in both daylight and low-light conditions. The portraits came out to be quite good from the rear sensor, while the selfies look good, though they are a bit over-styled. The device also packs a decent battery life that can easily last one whole day with medium usage. That said, if you are looking for a sleek phone with good camera capabilities, then you can consider the Honor 200. 

Honor 200 Specifications
Display 6.70-inch, 1200x2664 pixels

Motorola's Edge 50 Pro is equipped with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor, a 50-megapixel triple rear camera setup, and a 4,500mAh battery with up to 125W fast charging support. The phone offers some world first features such as a Pantone validated display and cameras. The Edge 50 Pro has a premium design and is available in three colour options. It is offered with up to 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage. You also get an IP68 dust and water resistance rating. The phone has a 6.7-inch pOLED curved display with 1.5K resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness of 2,000 nits. It has a stereo speaker setup with Dolby Atmos support, 3 microphones, and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

The Oppo Reno 11 Pro offers a slim and rounded design which appears quite premium despite being made out of polycarbonate and glass. However it lacks an official IP rating of any sort and still does not offer a stereo speaker setup.

The new Dimensity processor is powerful enough for handling regular smartphone tasks and can even handle heavy 3D games. Oppo offers the latest Android 14 software out of the box but it packs in plenty of bloatware and double apps.

The phone offers a very flexible camera setup among which its primary camera offers the best imaging performance followed by the telephoto camera which is good for snapping portraits. Its ultra-wide camera is quite weak and the same can be said about the phone’s video performance in general.

Battery life is quite solid for a slim design-focussed smartphone but charging is very quick.
