It is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 810 5G SoC and comes with either 6GB or 8GB of RAM depending on the variant you choose. Battery life is one of this phone’s strong suits, and the 5,000mAh battery easily lasts more than a day of normal use.
The 64-megapixel main camera managed good photos in daylight in our tests but the lack of an ultra-wide-angle camera makes the 8’s 5G less versatile than some of the competition. Low-light camera performance was average, though Night Mode helped improve output. Overall, the Realme 8s 5G is only a minor improvement over the 8 5G, but an improvement nonetheless.
moto g60
moto g60‘s (WaitHighlights include a 108-megapixel main camera, 120Hz display, 6,000mAh battery, and Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G SoC. It is one of the few phones that has a dedicated Google Assistant button. One thing we really liked about the Motorola Moto G60 was its clean software, with no bloatware or ads.
General performance was great in our tests, and the HDR10-certified performance meant that media consumption was pretty enjoyable, too. Despite having such a high resolution, the main camera came out a bit average. The G60 is also a bit heavy, and it takes a while to charge such a large battery. Moto G71 Might seem like a worthy replacement for it, but the G60 is still an attractive option, thanks to its bigger battery.
realme 8 pro
realme 8 pro‘s ,Wait) Attractive starting price of Rs. 17,999 definitely works in its favor, along with other positives such as very good battery life, fast charging, a sharp and vivid AMOLED display, and a very good selfie camera.
Realme has gone in a different direction with it as compared to its predecessor, 7 Pro, 8 Pro missing some features like stereo speakers as well as a high refresh rate display. Despite having a 108-megapixel camera, we found its performance a bit overwhelming, not to mention the spammy nature of some of the pre-installed apps. It’s still a good offering overall, which we didn’t expect.
iQoo Z3
iQoo Z3 ,Wait) to pricier . has been replaced by iQoo Z5 and recently, iQoo Z6 5G, but this older phone still offers a lot of CPU power thanks to its Qualcomm Snapdragon 768G SoC. Its starting price is just below our budget cutoff. The 6.58-inch full-HD+ screen has a 120Hz refresh rate, and the 4,499mAh battery can be charged quickly using the included 55W adapter. The plastic back may not appeal to everyone and camera performance could use some improvement, but it’s hard to pass up the features and specifications at this price level.
