Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime earned some extra point for performance and battery capacity when compared with Alcatel Idol 4and Moto G4 Plus. You can see the full comparison here.

With the advancements in technology, now you can buy better configuration smartphones at the same price range.

Moto G5S Plus has been on the top since then under Rs 17,000 price bar since its launch in August 2017. It is priced at Rs 13,999 and has a lot to offer with durability and reliability. It is powered by a 2GHz Octa-Core processor bundled with 4GB RAM for smooth multitasking without any lag. It has a 13+13 MP dual rear shooters for enhanced depth-in-field effect and a 3000mAh battery capacity with turbocharging to keep it all day long.

Also, you have a choice of Samsung Galaxy On Max which is priced at Rs 13,900. It is powered by a 2.39 GHz Octa-Core processor for a blazing performance. It does not have a dual-camera but its 13MP shooters on both sides click impressive pictures.

Alternatively, you can choose Nubia M2 which is priced at Rs 15,999. It is powered by a 2GHz Octa-Core processor and has a dual-camera setup at the back for clicking clear pictures with enhancements using blur and better low-light pictures. It also has a big battery capacity of 3630mAh but lacks quick charging support.

You can look for more phones with under Rs 17000 here: Phones under Rs 17,000

Verdict: Moto G5S Plus is really a great phone at this price range and is the best choice.
