Under Rs 30,000: From Nothing to iQOO, top 5 mid-range smartphones
Earlier, people had to spend quite a lot to get an Android phone that performs well and also has good cameras. Now, Rs 30,000 is a solid budget for those eyeing an Android smartphone that excels in photography, gaming, or offers a flagship-like experience. If you've made it halfway through the year still undecided, here's a list to help you choose a solid mid-range smartphone under this budget. Realme's latest flagship is the first in India to feature the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chip, capable of running 7-billion parameter generative AI models. It offers 128GB or 256GB of internal storage and is available exclusively on Amazon. The phone features a 6.78-inch 1.5K display with a 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of 6,000 nits. It runs Realme UI 5 based on Android 14 and has an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance. Realme also touts its advanced cooling system, which includes smart power tuning and a 10014 mm² 3D tempered dual vapour chamber. The rear sports a dual-camera setup with a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide lens, while the front has a 32MP selfie camera. It supports 4K video recording and houses a large 5,500 mAh battery with 100W fast charging. The iQOO Neo 10R features a 6.7-inch flat 1.5K resolution display with 2.5D curved glass and a 120Hz refresh rate. It's powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip, paired with 12GB RAM and either 128GB or 256GB of UFS 3.1/4.1 storage, making it a performance powerhouse, especially for gamers. It scored approximately 150,000 on the AnTuTu benchmark, a strong number for this price segment. It features a 50MP primary and 8MP ultra-wide rear camera combo, and a 32MP front camera capable of 4K recording at 30fps. A large 6,400 mAh battery supports the entire system. With its robust performance, sharp display, and great battery life, the iQOO Neo 10R stands out as a top gaming phone under Rs 30,000. The Nothing 3a Pro offers a standout design with a transparent back and functional Glyph LED lights that also act as notification indicators. It features a 6.77-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and runs on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset. Its triple-camera system includes a 50MP main sensor, 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. It packs a 5,000 mAh battery with 50W fast charging and runs a clean, bloat-free Nothing OS 3.1 based on Android 15. With a distinctive look, balanced performance, and user-friendly software, it offers strong value at this price. A recent choice, the Motorola Edge 60 Pro combines performance, battery life, AI experiences, and high-end construction. With a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a remarkable peak brightness of 4,500 nits, the 6.7-inch quad-curved pOLED display ensures vivid images even in direct sunlight. The gadget manages multitasking and gaming with ease thanks to its MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Extreme CPU and up to 12GB of RAM. This Edge series phone is priced at Rs 29,748. A smartphone comes equipped with a triple-camera configuration that features a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. A 32MP front camera allows for excellent selfies. In addition to 15W wireless charging, the 6,000mAh battery enables 90W TurboPower fast charging. The phone offers an Android 15 operating system and Motorola's Hello UI. The Poco F7 will sport the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset and come with a huge 6.83-inch flat LTPO AMOLED screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution, and 1,800 nits of brightness. The phone will be running on HyperOS 2 based on Android 15. It will also come integrated with 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage. If you could stretch your budget by a pinch, you could avail yourself of this phone at Rs 31,999. But with bank offers and exchange offers, you squeeze this phone under 30,000. Since this is a mid-range device that focuses on performance rather than camera, we might see a dual camera setup that consists of a 50MP Sony LYT-600 primary sensor and an 8MP ultrawide lens. All will be backed by a 7,550mAh battery that supports 90W fast wired charging and reverse charging of 22.5W. This device will be exclusively sold on the Flipkart website and app.
