Pros: RGB aesthetics, Reliable performance, Worthy gaming companion, Long battery life
Cons: No ultra-wide camera, Average charging speed
Verdict: With its functional RGB aesthetics, tall-vivid display, and snappy performance, the Infinix GT 20 Pro remains a top choice for gamers on an aggressive budget. It also offers a long battery backup, though the charging speed could be improved in the next iteration. The additional accessories, like the GT Metcha Case and Cooling fan, add loads of versatility to the overall device. Its cameras are decent, at least in daylight, but low-light performance can use refinements.
Pros: Vivid display, Reliable cameras, Clean Android 14 experience, Solid battery
Cons: Limited Android OS update promise, Average video recording
Verdict: The OnePlus Nord CE4 features many thoughtful upgrades, making it a much more compelling option than last year`s Nord CE3. The phone also checks many boxes for everyday users, whether it is the display, battery, or performance. Its cameras are also good, if not the best. While the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC promises cutting-edge AI features, we are still awaiting the availability of those features from OnePlus.
Pros: Stylish looks, Excellent performance, Impressive battery life, Pleasurable viewing experience
Cons: Cameras could have been better, No stereo speakers, Bloatware
Verdict: The iQOO Z7 Pro stands out as a performance-focused smartphone adept at effortlessly handling gaming and multitasking demands. Additionally, the device scores high in aspects like design, display, and battery life. However, as it turns out, the phone may have missed a trick or two in the camera and audio domains, though those might not really be a deal breaker depending upon what you`re looking for.
Pros: Great design, Brilliant 144Hz curved display, Selfie camera can record 4K 60fps videos
Cons: Certain issues with camera performance, Software support is not satisfactory
Verdict: Infinix Zero 30 5G comes with a crisp 144Hz curved AMOLED display and the ability to record videos in 4K 60fps on the front and back. However, Infinix promises only one major OS upgrade, which is far from ideal.
Pros: Lovely screen, Acceptable performance, Day-long battery life, Decent cameras
Cons: Lowlight photography could have been better, Plastic build, No alert slider
Verdict: The OnePlus Nord CE3 5G is a capable device at what it does. It delivers a good combination of hardware and bloat-free software, resulting in a smooth user experience. However, the only niggle is that upon comparing it with the competition, the OnePlus Nord CE3 5G doesn`t seem to have any standout feature worth shouting about.
Pros: Good and reliable performance, Eye-catchy design, Decent display, Clean UI
Cons: Camera performance, Battery life could have been better
Verdict: Infinix GT 10 Pro pricing starts from Rs 17,999, and introducing a gaming-centric phone at this price is commendable. And due to its consistent gaming performance and that too without heating up, Infinix definitely has a strong case for its phone here. Having said that, the phone`s camera performance could surely have been better. Overall, the phone offers you good and reliable performance, comes with an eye-catching design, and manages to come at a pocket-friendly price.
Pros: Premium luxury watch-inspired design, Telephoto camera is impressive, 67W charger bundled with box, Display quality is good
Cons: Peak brightness of the display, Processor could have been better
Verdict: Realme 12 Pro does a lot of things right and can easily be described as the best-designed phone in its price segment. The phone`s telephoto camera lets you click some impressive shots and in terms of display and charging speed, the phone is as good as the competition. However, if you`re looking for long-term usage, the recently released POCO X6 5G comes with a better processor and could be a better fit.
Pros: Vivid display, Loud speakers, Sleek design, Fast charging
Cons: Cluttered software experience, Lowlight photography
Verdict: The Redmi Note 13 Pro won`t disappoint if sleek design, fast charging, good battery, and cameras matter to you. It also offers one of the best displays in the segment. Additionally, the native reading mode continues to make the reading experience pleasant. However, the phone is still awaiting the Android 14, while other OEMs have already started offering it out of the box. The Note 13 Pro cameras perform reliably in daylight, but low light performance still needs some improvements.
Pros: Lightweight and slim design, Smooth 144Hz display, Impressive charging speeds, Hello UI offers a clutter-free user experience
Cons: Powerful competition in price range, Selfie camera bugs
Verdict: Motorola Edge 50 Fusion is not aimed at a particular audience or at those who just want a long-lasting battery. The phone aims to offer well-rounded features across the board that could attract all users. It manages to offer a clean and clutter-free user experience, a slim and lightweight design, and decent charging speeds. On the flip side, it doesn`t really top the charts when it comes to aspects like performance and camera.
Pros: Capable cameras, Vibrant immersive display , Premium design
Cons: Powerful competition, Inconsistent Ella AI
Verdict: Tecno Camon 30 5G is a good choice for someone who is looking for a camera-centric phone under Rs 25,000. With high-resolution 50MP camera sensors on both the front and back, the handset manages to offer an impressive camera performance in most lighting conditions. The phone also offers an impressive display and a distinct design. Overall, Camon 30 is a good choice but you do have other more powerful options in this range too.
Pros: Unique design and glyph interface, Impressive AMOLED display, Capable cameras, Excellent battery life
Cons: Transparent back is prone to smudges and scratches, No charger in the box
Verdict: The Nothing Phone (2a) is off to a great start. While there are smartphones in the segment that offer unique aesthetics, none quite match the uniqueness of the handset`s transparent back and Glyph Interface. This appealing aspect is nicely complemented by the smartphone`s display, cameras, battery life, and performance, making it well-suited for regular users.
Pros: Sleek and lightweight, Solid battery backup, 4K recording with selfie cam, Vivid display
Cons: Pre-installed apps, No stereo speakers
Verdict: The OPPO F25 proves to be a reliable smartphone if design, cameras, and battery performance matter to you. It also boasts a tall 6.7-inch AMOLED display, which offers punchy colours. However, the viewing experience gets slightly hampered due to the lack of stereo speakers. There`s Android 14-based ColorOS out-of-the-box, though the pre-installed apps make the experience cluttered. If these things don`t matter, the OPPO F25 Pro is a decent choice considering the price.
Pros: Sleek and attractive design, Stunning display, Good battery life
Cons: Cameras have issues, No stereo speakers, Software support could have been better
Verdict: The Honor 90 marks Honors return to India with an attractive design and a stunning display, showing us that Honor is very much ready to take on the competition. However, its inconsistent cameras and lack of stereo speakers leave you wanting more, especially in this price range.
Pros: Stellar display, Good cameras, Smooth performance, Impressive battery life and charging speeds
Cons: No microSD card slot, Conservative design
Verdict: The OnePlus Nord 3 5G excels in almost every aspect, from its captivating display and smooth performance to its capable cameras, long-lasting battery life, and rapid charging speeds. While its design may not be as visually striking as some other contemporary smartphones, the handset remains ergonomic and comfortable to grip, ensuring a pleasant user experience.
Pros: Inspiring design, Nice and bright AMOLED panel, Decent camera capabilities, Good battery life
Cons: Bloatware, No ultra-wide lens
Verdict: The Realme 11 Pro`s performance, viewing experience, and battery life are as good as the more expensive Realme 11 Pro+. While the handset`s cameras have certain limitations, they excel at capturing detailed shots in a well-lit environment.
