Expert comment: How do you make a good phone such as Galaxy M30s even better? Apparently Samsung had an answer. Galaxy M31s didn't just come with all the features such as massive battery life, great AMOLED display, and neat software, but also improved on the predecessor with a premium punch-hole design and upgraded optics. Galaxy M31s is one of the easiest phones to recommend in this price range and the only thing we can possibly hope for in the next model would be a processor upgrade.

Expert comment: With a 120Hz refresh rate display and a powerful processor in this price range, POCO X2 definitely serves as a deserving handset in the company's catalogue. If we talk about value for money, the POCO X2 offers a great camera performance (headlined by a 64MP primary sensor), an impressive battery life, and a premium design at a price point where most people can afford the phone. There is a case to be made that the new handset from POCO is one of the best value-for-money handsets across price segments and this statement alone should give you a fair idea about the handset's place in this list.

Expert comment: Motorola One Fusion Plus is one of the very few recent phones from the brand that can be described as good value for money. At this price point, you are treated to a 64MP quad camera setup, a really capable processor, and a respectable battery capacity with support for Turbo Power Charging. For all the selfie lovers out there, you would not be disappointed by the 16MP sensor up front either. Design and build quality are pretty good too. Overall, this is a phone you can seriously consider to buy at this price.

Expert comment: Redmi Note 9 Pro Max fills in the shoes as the brand's mid-range flagship phone and it justifies the title extremely well. Although the handset has a lot in common with the regular Pro model, you get a 64MP primary camera and a 32MP selfie camera on this variant. The phone makes no compromises when it comes to processor, display, camera performance, and even battery backup. Although you don't get a high refresh rate that you can get in slightly more expensive phones, the Note 9 Pro Max is an all-rounder that gets the job done.

Realme 6 Pro

Rs.16,999

Expert comment: Although Realme 6 is more of a headline-maker than Realme 6 Pro, purely because of incredible value for money, the Pro model is not a minor upgrade by any means. The Realme 6 Pro comes with a 90Hz refresh rate, upgraded cameras over the Realme 6, and a premium design. The handset takes on stiff competition in this range and while the software has shown a massive improvement, the underwhelming low-light camera performance means that the handset doesn't top this list. However, Realme 6 Pro is a really good phone for its price point.

Expert comment: Although Samsung Galaxy M40 does not pack a Super AMOLED panel like most of the brand's other offerings, the handset comes with some unique features of its own. The Galaxy M40 ships with Screen Sound cast technology, which essentially converts the entire display of the phone into a speaker. The handset offers an all-display front, thanks to punch-hole camera design. In terms of optics, you get a reliable performer in the form the Galaxy M40.
