Under Rs. 60,000

Here we give you our recommendations for the best phones in the market under Rs 60,000 updated regularly. We shall be suggesting phones, which we believe are the best in this price, along with a brief description of each, and our verdict, highlighting the differences between them.

Under Rs.60,000
In this price range we recommend the following two devices:

1. OnePlus 8 pro :
-Starting price Rs 54,999
- Processor: Snapdragon 865
-OS: Oxygen OS 10, Android 10 (close to stock android)
-Display: 6.78 inch Super Amoled, QHD+ punch hole display (Gorilla Glass 6), refresh=120Hz
-Memory: 8Gb Ram + 128Gb Internal (up to 12 + 256);[fast ufs 3.0]
-Camera: 48Mp primary + 48Mp Ultra-wide + 8Mp telephoto + 5Mp depth
-Front Camera: 16Mp primary
-Battery and Charging: 4510mAh at 30W warp charging, (50% in 23 mins); 30W fast wireless charging.
-Speaker: Dual stereo speakers, headphone jack absent
-MicroSD card: No slot
-Fingerprint Scanner: Optical, In-Display
-IP68 water and dust resistance certified.

2.  Samsung Galaxy S10+
-Starting price: Rs 61,900 (verify here)
- Processor: Exynos 9820
-OS: One UI 2.0 , Android 10
-Display: 6.4 inch Super Amoled, QHD+ punch hole display (Gorilla Glass 6), refresh=60Hz
-Memory: 8Gb Ram + 128Gb Internal (up to 12 + 1Tb);[slower ufs 2.1]
-Camera: 12Mp primary + 16Mp Ultra-wide + 12Mp Telephoto
-Front Camera: 10Mp primary + 8Mp depth sensor
-Battery and Charging: 4100mAh at 15W fast charging; 15W wireless charging
-Speaker: Dual Stereo speakers, headphone jack present 
-MicroSD card: Hybrid SD card slot present
-Fingerprint Scanner: Ultra-Sonic, In-Display
-IP68 water and dust resistance certified.

[Note: Even though the s10+ starts at Rs 61,900 , it has been kept in this list. For strictly less than 60,000, check out the S10. It has a slightly weaker camera and a smaller display, rest of the features are almost the same, and at a price of  around 53,000.
Note: The S20 is the latest offering from Samsung, and it houses a better processor, a better 120Hz display, a better camera, and better battery life, but it starts at around Rs 66,000. So it has been kept out of this list.]

 
 The Verdict: The OnePlus 8 pro is the best phone under Rs 60,000.

Comparative advantage:cheaper price, better processor, better display, faster ufs 3.0 storage, better cameras, faster charging, bigger battery.
Comparative disadvantage: single front camera, micro-sd card slot absent, slightly less secure optical fingerprint scanner.



Also, as it has been noticed in the market at this price, besides the overall best phone, people generally tend to request for either the best Samsung phone, or the best phone with a Stock Android UI, or the best iPhone. We have included these special categories as well:
(these are not phones we recommend, nor are the best in this segment)

The best Samsung phone: Samsung Galaxy S10+
(comparison with OnePlus 8 pro:)
Comparative advantage: dual front camera, hybrid sd card slot present, more secure ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.
Comparative disadvantage: more expensive, weaker processor, display is not as good, slower ufs 2.1 storage, weaker cameras, slower charging, smaller battery.


The best phone with Stock Android: OnePlus 8 pro
-Oxygen OS is very similar to stock android.


The best iPhone: iPhone 10s
-Price: Rs 59,998 (reference)
[The OnePlus 8 pro is technically much better than the iPhone 10s in every way, but this is for someone looking for an Apple Product at this price.]

The Future of the Chinese Smartphone Market

With the ongoing Coronavirus Pandemic taking center-stage, things are not exactly smooth in the tech space too. Many countries are citing "poor Coronavirus transparency" as their reason to drop Chinese products as their vendors, or to stop doing business with them. Here is what we think the future holds for China. Recently UK decided to drop Huawei as their 5G vendor, and expressed a strong wish to cut all ties with the Chinese tech giant, in the foreseeable future. This doesn't come as a surprise, as people around us are mentioning the same thing, to try to reduce their reliance on Chinese products. But it really is easier said than done. Take the smartphone industry for instance. In India, the market share of Chinese smartphones is well above 65% ( source ). These phones primarily target the budget and mid-range sections of the market. India, being a huge market for the budget smartphones, is heavily dependent on these brands like Xiaomi, OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo, Rea...
