Here are some tips and tricks to ensure that you get the best value for your money while buying a budget smartphone in India.
The Indian consumer is currently spoilt for choices when it comes to smartphones. Companies have been on a launch spree, making budget to premium smartphones available in the second-largest smartphone market worldwide. While most mid-range and premium smartphones pack everything that a consumer might want, smartphone companies often cut corners on budget devices to keep the cost low. Therefore, while there are plenty of options, it is important to know which smartphone is the best for you. Here are some tips and tricks to ensure that you get the best value for your money while buying a budget smartphone in India. The most important thing while making your purchase decision is knowing what you want from a smartphone. Break down your use case into at least six parameters, such as display, camera, battery life, processor, design, software updates, etc. You can analyse and make it simpler for you even further by adding other parameters such as speakers, build quality, splash resistance, etc. Once you analyse and narrow down the phones that tick the boxes as per your use case, pick a phone that covers almost all grounds as per your requirements. For example, if you consume a lot of content on your smartphone, you should prefer buying a phone with an AMOLED display with dual speakers. Most budget smartphones have a 3.5mm headphone jack but it is best to check once before finalising and making the purchase. Some examples here could be the Redmi Note 11, Moto G52, etc. Alternatively, if you want the best performance without breaking the bank, look for phones that come with the latest processor under the hood. For instance, the Vivo T1 5G and iQOO Z6 5G come with a Snapdragon 695 SoC that is based on a 6nm process.
