The OPPO K1 is one of those all-rounder phones that get many things right. The handset brings along an AMOLED display panel and an under-display fingerprint sensor at an extremely competitive price.

Having said that, OPPO`s handset still retains the novelty factor that comes with being the most affordable offering with an under-display fingerprint sensor. If you also prefer AMOLED panel over an IPS one, things might swing in favour of OPPO K1 for you. If you don`t want to buy either of these phones, there is also Honor Play (review), which is now available at an extremely attractive price of Rs 14,999.
