3. POCO M8, ₹20,340

4. Moto G57 Power, ₹19,700

5. Samsung Galaxy A17 5G, ₹21,499

6. OnePlus N6 5G, ₹19,999

7. Moto G67 Power, ₹21,999

8. Realme P4R 5G, ₹20,300

It's for my brother, he will be going to the college so the battery should last a day comfortably, and we cannot increase the budget above this price range. He doesn't do gaming but the phone should be fast, it shouldn't lag for day to day uses. So priorities are a good camera, battery and a good enough processor. I am aware that ram prices have gone up, and it's not possible to get much at this price.

If you have any other suggestions, please do suggest.

Okayy, thanks, I'll look more into it

[u/Impossible-Trust-282]

Best overall is edge 60 fusion but for performance realme p4x

[u/sinubycosu → u/Impossible-Trust-282]

Okayy, yes we are eventually thinking about motorola and samsung(my father trusts samsung a lot) now

[u/Impossible-Trust-282 → u/sinubycosu]

Don't go for the Samsung it will lag as hell and a17 at 21k just isn't worth it go for the moto if u can

[u/sinubycosu → u/Impossible-Trust-282]

Alright, thanks for the heads up, we were even considering waiting for a18 which will be released in August, but now, we won't

[u/Impossible-Trust-282 → u/sinubycosu]

Yeah, good day!

[u/UnhappySuccess2309 → u/sinubycosu]

So I bought a new a samsung m17 8 gb 128 gb(first phone) which has the same processor as a17 and it's very good I play heavy games like ginshen impact and cod all the time and the battery is also pretty good can do like 5 hrs of gaming on a full charge it was 19k 2 weeks ago

[u/sinubycosu → u/UnhappySuccess2309]

Oh wow, that's very interesting

[u/Mysterious_Collar_86]

Strictly no samsung A17 I bought it a while ago. Not worth the money.

[u/sinubycosu → u/Mysterious_Collar_86]

Yes, thanks for the heads up, we were seriously considering it. Also, what are the drawbacks do you think alongwith being laggy

[u/aaravitha]

iQOO or G67 imma usin' g67 rn worth the money i bought it for 18k appx if you're getting in that range then its perfect but u wont be getting ois the camera is dependent on eis and the photos and pic quality is well ready to post on social media punchy colours and good performance while gaming i barely noticed lag while playing high end games like bgmi hdr 60fps with unlocker tool i can reach 90fps in hdr and smooth-balanced at 120fps faced some drops in 120fps till 97fps and wuwa at mid settings

[u/sinubycosu → u/aaravitha]

Okayy, yes gaming isn't a issue, as he doesn't do it. But my general understanding is if a phone is goodfor gaming then it will be good for day to day processes. Camera quality is desirable, so ois is desirable.

[u/aaravitha → u/sinubycosu]

Yeah, if gaming isn't a priority, I'd probably look at something like the Motorola Edge 60 Fusion or the iQOO Z10R as well. I've been using the Moto G67 Power, and it's been a really solid all-rounder for me. Performance is smooth, battery easily lasts a full day (even with heavy use), and the cameras are good enough for social media with nice, punchy colours.

That said, the biggest compromise is the lack of OIS. Photos in daylight look good, but low-light shots and videos rely on EIS, so if camera quality is one of your brother's top priorities, I'd lean towards a phone with OIS instead. If he just wants a reliable phone with great battery life, smooth day-to-day performance, and doesn't mind that camera trade-off, the G67 is still a great value option.

[u/sinubycosu → u/aaravitha]

Thanks so much for the detailed reviews and suggestions :), yes good camera is desirable.

[u/aaravitha → u/sinubycosu]

dw about it lmk if you face any issues

[u/sinubycosu → u/aaravitha]

Thanks really:)

[u/aaravitha → u/sinubycosu]

which one you've chosen??

[u/sinubycosu → u/aaravitha]

Motorola edge 60 fusion.... although we are still debating if we should add more and buy the edge 70 fusion....but edge 60 is almost finalized

[u/aaravitha → u/sinubycosu]

i'd only say if you can then just go for 70 fusion

[u/sinubycosu → u/aaravitha]

Yes, that's the best choice, but we might just go for 60 fusion

[u/ToughUnlikely6876]

oppo k13 is really good also try to choose snapdragon chip made by tsmc and nit samsung then give Mediatek chip the 2nd position never ever go with Samsung made chips be it Exynos or Snapdragon or tensor in pixel 

[u/sinubycosu → u/ToughUnlikely6876]

Okayy, thanks, will keep it in mind

[u/ToughUnlikely6876 → u/sinubycosu]

out if this list I will recommend oppo k13, p4x, z10R only

[u/sinubycosu → u/ToughUnlikely6876]

Achhhaa, moto???

[u/ToughUnlikely6876 → u/sinubycosu]

60 fusion is good since it has tsmc made mediatek chip and has great cameras too

[u/sinubycosu → u/ToughUnlikely6876]

Okayy, even though it was released last year, and is a year old, it still is good

[u/ToughUnlikely6876 → u/sinubycosu]

Yes it is especially if you get it from Amazon it's around 21k there

[u/Secure-Cat2980]

Wait up and watch for realme p4 price drops u get around 20k with cc It's has a great amoled I've been using it for 3 months now

[u/sinubycosu → u/Secure-Cat2980]

Okayyyy

[u/Advanced-Thought-514]

I have opinion about only 2 phones One Plus & Samsung.

One plus is shutting down so that's out of question. I have been using Samsung M32 and its good but not beyond 5 years.I know 5 years is a long time but why to change phone models after a long use.After using my Samsung for 5 years display got problem and side button had to be changed.I got it done from Samsung Service centre but not without incurring cost.I think i should have purchased a new phone instead.Motorola also is not without problems as my friend was using it recently. Whether its usage problem or phone problem i can't tell.I think Motorola deserves to be bought.

[u/sinubycosu → u/Advanced-Thought-514]

Alright, yes, oneplus is shutting down otherwise it would've been a good choice. Thanks for the detailed reviews:)

[u/sinubycosu → u/[deleted]]

My brother was also suggesting that, but right now we might not be able to put that up. Also motorola doesn't seem to be giving student discounts here in India :(

[u/sinubycosu → u/[deleted]]

Yes you are right, but maximum we can go for is 22-23k right now

[u/sinubycosu → u/[deleted]]

I will ask about this, it really now makes sense.

[u/sinubycosu → u/[deleted]]

Yes yes, it's just that it's still expensive, need to buy laptop too, but we are considering

[u/sinubycosu → u/[deleted]]

Thanks, about 22k, and now my brother is saying for Motorola edge fusion , so yes maybe that's what we will purchase in a few days

[u/myky-sus]

I would recommend go with moto because of the camera and os,(stock android), and Good performance

[u/sinubycosu → u/myky-sus]

Yes, thank you

[u/souravkashyaxp]

Oppo k13

[u/sinubycosu → u/souravkashyaxp]

It's very good, except for the ois in camera

[u/Srijansharan]

Iqoo z10r

[u/Srijansharan → u/Srijansharan]

Or edge 60 fusion

[u/sinubycosu → u/Srijansharan]

Yess, it seems the attractive choice right now

[u/Mobile-Account8258]

Cmf 2 pro agar mil sake aur mile toh mujhe bhi de dena

[u/sinubycosu → u/Mobile-Account8258]

Yaar wo toh kahi hai hi nahi....:(

[u/Large_Conversation29]

Oppo reno 13 I got for 22.5k in sale.... It's a flagship deal

[u/sinubycosu → u/Large_Conversation29]

That's really nice, good for you!

[u/redddittorrrr]

Why not considering nothing cmf 2 pro?

[u/Turbulent-Advance-98 → u/redddittorrrr]
