From Realme X2 Pro to Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus: Best phones under Rs 30,000

A budget of Rs 30,000 these days can get you phones with performance and features that can rival models priced two times higher. Talk about flagship SoC, ample RAM and storage, high-res cameras with great performance and more, it’s all here. So without further ado, let’s look at the best phones you can buy under 30K this month.

Best phones under Rs 30,000 in India

Realme X2 Pro

The Realme X2 Pro (Review) is a flagship device from the Oppo sub-brand. The phone boasts of the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ chipset with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB storage under Rs 30,000. If that wasn’t enough, you also get a 6.5-inch 90 Hz Full HD+ Super AMOLED display with 20:9 aspect ratio to go with it, similar to the one found on a much higher priced OnePlus 7T (Review).

The rear camera department here has four cameras starting with a 64 MP primary shooter and including a 13 MP ultra-wide, 8 MP telephoto for 2x optical zoom, and a 2 MP depth sensor.

A 4,000 mAh battery may be par for the course now, but the bundled 50 W Super VOOC charger juices it up insanely fast. It charges 50 percent of the battery in just over 11 minutes, and the entire battery from 0 to 100 percent in under 34 minutes. Those numbers are seriously impressive!

Redmi K20 Pro

The Redmi K20 Pro (Review) is quite an attractive device with a glass body and an eye-catching Aura Prime design.

This phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC and comes bundled with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB storage. Actually, you can also opt for the 8 GB RAM and 256GB storage variant in this budget.

The camera department on Redmi K20 Pro is impressive too. You get a triple camera setup comprising a 48 MP main camera with a Sony IMX586 sensor, 13 MP ultra-wide camera with a 125-degrees FOV, and an 8 MP telephoto lens that facilitates 2x optical zoom. They manage to capture some high quality images in varied lighting conditions. You also get an option to record super slo-mo 720p videos at 960 fps and 1080p Full HD videos at up to 240 fps.

Asus 6Z

This Asus flagship (Review) is powered by a Snapdragon 855 SoC too and comes with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, which is expandable up to 2 TB with a microSD card. This too has a full-screen 6.4-inch Full HD+ display without any kind of notch or hole for the front camera. In fact, it doesn’t have a dedicated front camera at all, and the rear cameras can be flipped over to take selfies. The flipping mechanism is motorised and controllable, thus letting you capture photos at interesting angles.

The rear cameras, which also double up as front cameras, have 48 MP + 13 MP sensors that capture excellent shots in decent lighting with natural colours and ample detail. They do a good job in low light too. Thanks to the flip mechanism, you get arguably the best selfie cameras around that let you click great portrait shots and shoot even better videos. The Asus 6Z’s 5,000 mAh battery easily sails through a day and a half of moderate usage.

Oppo Reno 10x Zoom

Flipkart is offering a massive Rs 10,000 instant discount on the Oppo Reno 10X Zoom (First impressions) handset, thus dropping its price well under 30K and making it a much better deal.

It manages to take some high quality shots in varied lighting and different shooting modes. The Oppo Reno 10X Zoom has an in-display fingerprint scanner. Its 4,065 mAh battery goes beyond a day of moderate usage and can be charged briskly using the bundled VOOC 3.0 charger. The phone runs Android Pie with ColorOS 6 on top.

You get the 6 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage variant in this budget. You can always expand the storage further with a micro SD card.

Though it doesn’t brag of some fancy triple or quad camera setup, its 12 MP + 12 MP dual rear cameras with the variable aperture system does an excellent job, and also give you 2x optical zoom along with OIS. You get an option to shoot super slow motion HD videos at 960 fps and full HD 1080p videos up to 240 fps. Lastly, the Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus has an IP68 certification too, making it dust and water resistant. Its 3,500 mAh battery lasts a day of moderate usage.
