Nothing Phone 3a Pro

Rs.28,350

See more prices

Pros: Unique transparent design with Glyph interface, Powerful chipset for smooth performance, Improved camera setup, Clean, bloat-free Android experience

Cons: No charger in the box, Charging speeds are not the fastest in its class, Periscope lens needs improvement

Verdict: While its distinctive design may not appeal to everyone, the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro stands out with a bright display, solid performance, clean software, and decent battery life. The Essential Space feature is a promising addition, though it could use refinements, much like the periscope telephoto camera, which falls short of complementing an otherwise impressive camera system.

Pros: Durable design, Smooth performance, Reliable camera setup, Good battery backup

Cons: Loads of pre-installed apps, Average outdoor visibility

Verdict: The Realme 14 Pro+ is a compelling option for its price, offering a robust IP69-rated design with smooth performance, a reliable camera setup, and excellent battery life.

vivo V50e

Rs.28,999

See more prices

Pros: Sleek & lightweight design, Vibrant AMOLED display, Reliable battery life, Decent primary camera

Cons: Lacks the punch in performance, Ultrawide & low-light images need improvement

Verdict: The Vivo V50e aims to balance style, performance, and battery life in the competitive sub-Rs 30K segment. While the cameras are reliable and prioritise a natural look, they can occasionally lack sharpness and vibrancy. The Vivo V50e handles daily tasks like calling, browsing, and light gaming with ease, but power users might crave more performance, especially with iQOO and POCO offering some stellar gaming-focused options.

Pros: Sleek & lightweight design, Solid performance, Reliable cameras, Large battery & fast charging

Cons: Peak display brightness could have been better, Limited software support

Verdict: The Realme P3 Ultra, powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultra chipset, delivers impressive performance - not just against its P3 siblings but also its key rivals.

OnePlus Nord 4

Rs.28,999

Pros: Metal build, Fast charging, Clean UI, Reliable performance

Cons: Average video recording, Cameras get limited modes

Verdict: There`s no doubt the Nord 4 is the most refined Nord smartphone ever, and it may even feel slightly more premium than the OnePlus 12R. The new Qualcomm chipset, metal body, and solid battery backup give it an edge. Its camera performance is reliable, though OnePlus may want to add new AI features. The dual-tone finish may raise some eyebrows though.

Pros: Good display, Reliable cameras, Snappy performance, Solid battery

Cons: No NFC support, Build quality could`ve been better

Verdict: The iQOO Neo 10R testifies that reliable and powerful smartphones don`t need to be overly expensive. With the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC onboard, users can expect a snappy performance, be it for daily productivity or gaming. The phone also packs reliable cameras, particularly for video recording. However, the build quality could have been better. Additionally, the lack of NFC support in this segment might be a drawback for some users in the long run.

OPPO F29 Pro

Rs.27,999

See more prices

Pros: IP69-rated durability, Tall, vibrant display, Solid battery, OPPO AI features

Cons: Pre-installed apps, Limited OS support, No ultra-wide camera

Verdict: The OPPO F29 Pro is among the few phones in its segment that meaningfully puts AI to work. Features like AI Reply make handling emails and messages a breeze, while AI Summary can condense entire web pages in seconds. The 50MP primary camera holds up well across different lighting conditions, though the absence of an ultra-wide sensor might be a deal-breaker for some. OPPO must also consider reducing the number of pre-installed apps to deliver a more intuitive Android experience.

Pros: Sleek design, Fast charging, Gen AI features, Vivid display

Cons: Average processor, Loads of pre-installed apps

Verdict: Simply considering the hardware, the OPPO Reno 12 Pro may surprise many users. But its native AI features give the smartphone an edge over rivals, and its performance is surprisingly smooth despite modest specifications. The camera and battery performance are decent, if not the best. However, given the aggressive competition, OPPO needs to revamp the next Reno smartphone with high-end hardware to stand out. But if you value cameras, sleek design, and a vivid display, the Reno12 Pro won`t disappoint.

Verdict: The Redmi Note 14 Pro+ is a solid choice if battery, vibrant display, and cameras matter to you. The phone is also among the most stylish devices in the segment.
