Introduction
So what are the best smartphones under Rs 20,000
If your budget is between 15 to 20,000 then this article is for you. Because I am going to tell you the best smartphones for you. And I am going to tell you properly.
Durability and Display: Poco X7
First of all friends, if durability is important for you. Do you drop your phone frequently or do you want multimedia, which means you need a very good display. In fact, this phone is great in terms of display and durability.
Why? Because it comes with the protection of Gorilla Glass Victis 2 protection . It’s a great display.
There is a 5500 mAh battery. Its down side is that it comes on Android 14. It is a little old. So that’s about it. But yes, its price is Rs 17,999 for 8 GB Ram128 GB ROM variant.
Lightweight and Stylish: Moto Edge 50 Neo
If you want a lightweight, pocket-friendly, good-looking phone then last year’s Moto Edge 50 Neo is awesome. It comes with a 6.4-inch 1.5K resolution 12K AMOLED display.
It comes with The dimensity 7300 processor. Comes with IP 68 certification. It has a small battery of 4310 and hence is very light. There is 68 W charging but 5 years of major updates are available. This comes with offer in Rs 19,999.
So if you want something lightweight, pocket friendly, good looking, good UI etc then you should look at Moto Edge 50 Neo.
Battery Champion: iQOO Z10 / Vivo T4
There is a phone which according to me is a battery champion because it comes with a 7300 mAh battery.
So as far as battery is concerned, either IQ Z10 or Vivo T4 are also rebranded. So even if anyone takes it, it is one and the same. There is a 6.77-inch FHD Plus AMOLED 120 Hz display.
Comes with 7s3 processor. It has 7300 mAh battery and 90w charging. Its only down side is that it is a mono speaker, so if audio is important for you then this will not be there.
But yes 7s3 and 7300 milli ampere battery is excellent. Its price is 19,999. So Battery Champ you can definitely go for it.
Best UI and Performance: Oppo K13
Now along with battery you will get Colour UI, Colour OS because it is one of the better UI, I would say after 1UI 7, Colour OS is one of the best.
For that you can look towards Oppo K13. The processor in it is also good. The performance is also actually good. In comparison to 7S gen3, the performance of 6 gen 4 which comes in Oppo K13 is better in my opinion.
It is IP65. It is 8128. UFS 3.1 is the storage type. It also comes with a big battery 7000 mAh battery and 80 W charging and Android 15 out of the box.
At Rs 17999 it is also cheaper than Rs 2000. Comparison of IQOO Z10. So I think Oppo K13 is also very good choice in this particular price range. Especially if you look at UI and battery.
Unique Design: CM Phone 2 Pro
If you want a phone with a unique looking design, a modular phone, then you can check out the just launched CM Phone 2 Pro.
One good thing friends, in all the phones that I have mentioned, the charger is available inside the box. So that is good. Including CM Phone 2 Pro.
So this is the first Nothing phone in which you get Adapter inside the box. In comes the Dimensity 7300 Pro. There is an 8GB RAM and 128 GB ROM variant. One of the things is that it is a mono speaker. Not all that great.
But yes unique design and great UI, great updates, great widget. So your experience with the software is going to be good. There is a 5000 milli ampere battery. 3 years of major updates are also available.
And its price is 16999. So in terms of price also it is cheaper than Rs 20,000. Rather than 18, 19,000 is 16999. So it is available with offers for Rs 17,000. I think that is quite good. If you want something unique then definitely you can look at this.
All-Rounder: OnePlus Nord CE 4
And again I would still say as an all around I think last year’s OnePlus CE 4 is good. One is an FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED screen. There is the 8 GB 128GB variant. 7 Gen 3 arrives.
This is not the 7S gen 3. This is 7 gen3 so its performance is also good. 5500 ampere battery and 100 W charging is good there too. There is a 50 + 8 megapixel functional camera setup.
2 megapixel So that is good. Oxygen OS 14 arrives. There are 2 years of major updates. So, it is a bit of a downside that out of the box you are getting Oxygen OS 14 which is based on Android 14. Major updates are being received only for the last 2 years.
So, OnePlus Not C4 is a good choice. For the 8 GB RAM128 GB ROM variant, you get it for Rs 20999 out of Rs 20-21,000. It is worth it. And it is a OnePlus phone.
Conclusion
So friends, these are the best smartphones which I would suggest to you if your budget is between Rs 15,000 to Rs 20,000.
