If you're planning to buy a premium phone but don't want to spend a fortune, you've got more options now than ever before. These days, you don't need to pay upwards of a lakh to enjoy fast performance, great cameras, and beautiful displays. In fact, several phones in the sub-Rs 60,000 segment now offer flagship-level features at much lower prices. Whether you're after a great camera, long battery life, or smooth gaming performance, there's something here that can tick all the boxes without leaving your wallet empty. advertisementHere are four of the best smartphones currently available in India for under Rs 60,000. The list includes the Vivo X200 FE and three more X200 FEWe kick off the list with the Vivo X200 FE — a compact flagship phone that doesn't hold back on performance or features. Despite its smaller form factor, the X200 FE comes packed with high-end specs and a premium design, making it a strong pick for anyone looking for a powerful phone under Rs 60,000. It runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 Plus chip, which isn't as powerful as the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite, but still handles day-to-day tasks and heavy apps with ease. You also get two RAM and storage options — 12GB + 256GB for Rs 54,999 and 16GB + 512GB for Rs 59,999 — which gives users flexibility based on their needs. You also get Zeiss-tuned lenses, including a 50-megapixel main camera, a 50-megapixel telephoto, and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide, plus a sharp 50-megapixel front camera.

It keeps most of what makes the flagship great — powerful performance, a sleek design, and a lovely display — but cuts the price down to around Rs 54,999. With bank offers, you can grab it for even less. Under the hood, it runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and comes with 12GB of RAM. The 6.32-inch AMOLED screen is sharp and responsive, thanks to a 120Hz refresh rate. There's also a big 5,850mAh battery with 80W charging, so staying powered through a busy day won't be an 13The iQOO 13 is aimed at users who want all-out speed and power. Whether you're gaming or switching between multiple apps, it keeps up effortlessly thanks to the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and a generous helping of RAM (up to 16GB). It's backed by a large 6,000mAh battery and comes with super-fast 120W charging, meaning a quick top-up can take you through an entire day. The screen is a vibrant 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with a fast 144Hz refresh rate. While its main 50-megapixel camera does a solid job in daylight, low-light results are just average. But if raw performance is what you're after, the iQOO 13 16eFor those loyal to the Apple ecosystem, the iPhone 16e is a reliable pick under Rs 60,000. While it skips extras like an ultra-wide camera or MagSafe, it still runs on the A18 chip — the same one used in the iPhone 16. The performance is smooth, and it even supports Apple Intelligence features, something that's rare at this price. Apple has also introduced a new C1 modem in the 16e, which helps with network efficiency and improves battery life. It may not be the flashiest iPhone around, but it's a great long-term option, especially if software updates and stability are important to you.- Ends

iQOO 15 specs leaked: What we expect to see from the next performance-centric flagship
iQOO 13 has stood out as one of the most affordable Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered flagship smartphones in the Indian market. Now, early leaks have begun to surface about its potential successor, expected to launch as the iQOO 15. According to Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station, a series of new details have emerged about what the iQOO 15 might offer when it debuts later this year. Digital Chat Station says that the iQOO 15 could offer a 2.2K display with a large and straight (flat) screen. The iQOO 13 also offered a flat display, so it would be nothing out of the ordinary if the iQOO 15 also offers a flat display. On the display, it would actually deliver a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, which will be quite reminiscent of the iQOO 13 as well, because the iQOO 13 too comes with an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner. Coming to the optics, Digital Chat Station says that the phone could feature a 50-megapixel 3x midsole periscope lens, which would certainly boost the camera appeal of the iQOO 15. For reference, the iQOO 13 featured a 50-megapixel telephoto camera as well, but with 2x optical zoom, alongside a 50-megapixel main wide camera and a 50-megapixel ultrawide shooter. The tipster has also claimed that the rest of the cameras on the iQOO 15 could be 50-megapixels as well. Reports have also claim that the iQOO 15 phone could feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip, which would continue the tradition of iQOO offering high-end internals with its flagships. In addition, reports also claim that it could offer a large battery, possibly a 7,000 mAh battery and a 6.85-inch LTPO panel. As for the launch in India, it is still up in the air because there is no information so far, including details about a potential China launch. However, if the past is any indicator, the iQOO 13 did launch in the Indian market last year in October, so an Indian launch could follow a similar timeline.
