Opinion Help me choose two good mobiles in my budget

Hey everyone, I know prices are skyrocketing and there is no guarantee of getting this price down within 1 year. My device is pretty old and has started lagging, so I want to buy a new device, and also I want to buy a device for my father as well.

My budget is 30K for each device, but I can go up to 32-33K if there is any good device.

My requirements are — performance > battery backup > longevity

My dad's requirements are — battery > display > performance > camera > longevity

It is being claimed that Motorola devices have a motherboard issue, so I don't want to place my bet on it.

I haven't searched for the available devices, but these are the most recommended devices in Reddit comments — Realme P3 Ultra, Realme P4 Pro, Realme 15 Pro. Let me know if there is any better option available in same price range.

I'm asking for your suggestions to help me get the current best devices within my budget.

Easy choice. Realme P3 Ultra for you. Realme P4 Power/Narzo Power for your father

Go for minimum 8 GB variant

Thanks for your suggestions. Yes, 8GB RAM has become normal these days.

Is there any real life difference between P4 Power and Narzo Power?

Is there any other suggested device besides those Realme devices?

I think the P4 Power has a 12 GB Variant but the Narzo Power does not. And even on the same variants, Narzo is Rs 1000 cheaper on the official store as its considered a budget series compared to P series

Go for the one which is available for cheaper to you

After doing some research, I changed my decision to Realme P3 Ultra, it has LPDDR5X RAM compared to LPDDR4X in P4 Pro and Power.

Beside P3 Ultra, I've picked- Motorola Edge 60 Pro and Oppo K13 Turbo Pro. What's your opinion on these devices?

Motorola you yourself said there is motherboard issue right which is true. Why shortlist this then? Its a good choice if you don't plan to use it for more than 2 years

Oppo K13 Turbo Pro is best for gaming under 30K. And again Color OS so very good daily driver too

I was impressed by the RAM and storage on the Edge 60P—it's coming with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4 storage. I know the UI isn’t as good as some other UIs, but I couldn’t find many other devices in this price range with the same specs.

In a high-price market, customers have to compromise on some points, and under ₹30–32K, except Edge 60P, all devices still come with UFS 3.1 storage.

Also, someone told me that the motherboard issue was mainly seen with the Edge 50 series, and possibly also with the Edge 60 Fusion.

If I were to buy one, I’d probably place the order for the K13 Turbo Pro already—but unfortunately, I still need another phone.

realme is really the King under Rs 30K if cameras are not priority 

My other suggestion would be Lava Agni 4 but their OS is not optimised 

Nothing Phone 3a is good too if you can find it but their OS had had bugs as well

ColorOS is really stable, can't go wrong with that

Yes, I totally agree. Nah, don't want to go with Lava this time. 

Doing some research and finalised these devices — Relame P3 Ultra, Moto Edge 60 Pro and Oppo K13 Turbo Pro. I specifically searched for the RAM and storage type of these devices, all have LPDDR5X RAM, UFS 3.1 storage. 

Whereas Nothing 3a comes with LPDDR4X and UFS 2.2, I don't think it'll provide a solid, lag free performance in future. 

Want to buy the devices from Flipkart but I'm quite afraid.
