Infinix Note series has been amusing the users for a long time now. It is their legacy to provide extravagant specifications in an affordable price range. Similarly, they didn’t disappoint this time as well. Recently, the company has launched the Infinix Note 8. The phone comes with a 6.95 inches large screen with a resolution of 720 x 1640 pixels. Also, it is protected by the Corning Gorilla glass. Furthermore, the phone is equipped with a powerful Helio G80 processor which is good for gaming as well. In the case of memory space, it has 64 GB RAM and 128 GB of internal memory. There is a quad rear camera with a 48 MP main camera and quad-LED flash. For selfie lovers, there is a dual selfie camera with a resolution of 16 MP + 2 MP.  In addition to that, there is a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and a 5200 mAh powerful battery.

The reasons for placing Infinix Note 8 at the first spot are obvious. Comparatively, it has a powerful chipset, larger screen, and memory size, dual selfie camera, and powerful battery. So all these attributes have assisted it to take the first spot.

2. Xiaomi Redmi 9T:

The Chinese tech giant Xiaomi has been releasing some high-tech smartphones at an affordable price in the recent era. One such smartphone is the Redmi 9T. The size of the screen is 6.53 inches with a resolution of 1080p. The chipset installed in the phone is snapdragon 662 which is a powerful chipset. Furthermore, there is a rear quad-camera setup with a 48 MP main camera. There is 4 GB of RAM along with 64 GB of internal memory. There is a single selfie camera with a resolution of 8 MP. There is a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and a massive battery of 6000 mAh. The phone is available in Carbon Gray, Twilight Blue, Sunrise Orange, and Ocean Green colors.

You must be wondering that Redmi 9T has a few better specs than Note 7 so why it isn’t placed in the first position. The reason is the camera, memory size, and to some extent chipset.  As the Note 7 has a larger screen, dual selfie camera, more space, and better gaming chipset. Apart from that, Redmi 9T has some brilliant specs under this price tag due to which it has managed to grasp the second position on the list of best smartphones under 30K.

3. Xiaomi POCO M3:

Another smartphone from Xiaomi has managed to grasp a position in the top 3. The POCO M3 has been released lately. There is an IPS display with a screen size of 6.53 inches and a resolution of 1080^2340 pixels. For protection purposes, there is Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The chipset installed in the phone is snapdragon 662 (11 nm) which is a powerful chipset. Furthermore, there is a rear triple-camera setup with a 48 MP main camera. There is a single selfie camera with a resolution of 8 MP. There is 4 GB of RAM along with 64 GB of internal memory. There is a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and a massive battery of 6000 mAh. The phone also supports reverse charging.

There are a lot of similarities between the POCO M3 and the Redmi 9T. But the sole reason because of which the POCO M3 has been placed in 3rd position is its camera. All other specs are identical to the Redmi 9T but the latter has a quad-camera due to which Poco M3 has been ranked after it.

4. Tecno Camon 16 SE:

Tecno has gained immense popularity because it renders quality at an affordable price. Likewise, they didn’t disappoint this time as well. Recently, the company has released the Camon 16 SE. The phone comes with a 6.8 inches dot-in display with a resolution of 720 x 1640 pixels.  Furthermore, the phone is equipped with a powerful Helio G70 processor which is fair in this price category. In the case of memory space, it has 6 GB RAM and 128 GB of internal memory. There is a quad rear camera with a 48 MP main camera and penta-LED flash. For selfie lovers, there is a selfie camera with a resolution of 16 MP along with a dual-LED flash.  In addition to that, there is a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and a 5000 mAh powerful battery.

Tecno Camon 16 SE has managed to grasp the fourth position on our list. Though, it has a higher memory space than the above two mentioned. However, due to the comparatively, weaker chipset, display and battery, it couldn’t find a place in the top 3.

5. Nokia 5.4:

Nokia has been striving hard to regain its lost position in the world of smartphones. So they are making high spec smartphones with the excellent build quality. They have recently released Nokia 5.4. There is an IPS display with a screen size of 6.39 inches and a resolution of 720 x 1560 pixels. However, there is no corning gorilla glass for protection purposes. The chipset installed in the phone is snapdragon 662 (11 nm) which is a strong chipset. Furthermore, there is a rear quad-camera setup in a circular shape with a 48 MP main camera. In addition to that, there is a single selfie camera with a resolution of 16 MP. There is 4 GB of RAM along with 64 GB of internal memory. There is a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and a battery of 4000 mAh which is slightly on the shorter side. The phone doesn’t support reverse charging.

Nokia 5.4 has a good chipset, camera, and memory space due to which it has managed to find a place in the top 5. But due to a weak battery, no gorilla glass, and less display resolution as compared to the top 4, it has been placed on the fifth spot on our list.

6. Realme 6i

Realme unveiled its new affordable smartphone, the 6i, that has got some outstanding specifications. The smartphone is an upgraded version of its previous variant 5i. The Realme 6i is having an upgraded quad-camera setup with few extravagant features that will make the phone lovers thinking to purchase it. The phone will be powered by one of the most powerful chipsets, the Mediatek Helio G80. There will be 4GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage. The capacity of the RAM is sufficient to support multiple tasks without any issues. There is an IPS display with a resolution of 720 Pixels. The main sensor of the camera squad will be 48 megapixels that are quite an improvement as compared to the previous variant 5i. The Realme 6i is available in PKR 29,999/-. It is also one of the best smartphone under 30,000.

However, though the phone has got a G80 still it got the sixth position on our list because the display is a bit disappointing and RAM along with the price is also not up to the mark if we compare it with the above-mentioned smartphones.

7.  Tecno Camon 15 Pro

The all-new Camon 15 that has got a moniker Pro at the end which implies that this variant would be much more powerful as compared to the standard variant of the series. However, few of the specs of  Tecno Camon 15 Pro will be the same as used in the standard variant. But there are some upgradations as well. The chipset installed is the MediaTek Helio P35 which is the good chipset. In terms of memory size, techno’s products have always astonished us and it goes the same this time as well. There is a huge 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage to store massive data. An IPS panel is fitted with a resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. There is a quad-camera setup but the most stylish thing is the motorized pop up of this phone. The Camon 15 Pro is available at PKR 27,999/-

However, still, the phone managed to occupy the 7th spot solely because of the chipset as the Helio P35 is much weaker chipset as compared to all other chipsets that are mentioned above. And the price is also on the higher side.

8.  Vivo Y30

 

Vivo Y30’s spurred excitement when it hit the market. It is one of the most selling handsets these days because of its elegant design and extravagant specs. The Y30 comes with a quad-camera setup with 13 MP main camera. In terms of memory, it has 4 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage that is quite a normal sight these days.  The chipset of  VivoY30 is also a powerful one that will provide outstanding performance to make it one of the best choices for the customers. It’s the MediaTek Helio P35 SoC. There would be an IPS display with a resolution of 720 x 1560. The Vivo Y30 is available in PKR 27,999/-.

However, this phone occupied the eighth position on our list and couldn’t surpass the ones that are mentioned above. First of all, there is a weak processor as compared to the others. Secondly, the resolution is also not up to the mark compared to canon 15 pro and the price is a bit higher than it should be.

9.  Oppo A31

Oppo A31comes with a 6.50-inch drop notch display with a resolution of 720×1600 pixels along with an aspect ratio of 20:9. Oppo A31 is powered by a 2.3GHz octa-core MediaTek Helio P35 processor. It comes with 4GB of RAM and 64 GB internal storage. The Oppo A31’s operating system is Android 9 and is powered by a 4230mAh non-removable battery. In addition to that,  the phone has a triple rear camera with the main lens as 12-megapixel. There is a corning gorilla glass 3 for protection. The Oppo A31 is available in PKR 29,999/-.

It is pretty much apparent that why this phone is placed at the bottom of our list. The operating system is not the latest, there are a less powerful chipset, battery, and camera, and also not an impressive display. But, surprisingly the price of this phone exceeds many other on our list.

Worthy Mention (For Brand Lovers)

10. Samsung Galaxy A21s:

 

The Galaxy A21s is the only Samsung brand phone on our list. This is one of the first phones in which Samsung has used some higher specs at a budget price. Like, there is a Quad camera setup with 48 MP as the main camera. In addition to that, there is very powerful chipset installed, the Exynos 850 (8nm). There is a 6.5 inches display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels.  However, the display panel used is TFT which is pretty much disappointing. The A21s is available in PKR 29,999/-.

I would recommend this phone to all the brand conscious people. The reason for it is that the A21s is a branded, stylish, powerful and an affordable phone from Samsung.

11. Samsung A12:

Samsung has a brand name on the top of which it has made its hierarchy in terms of pricing. Recently, the company has released the new A12 under the 30,000 price tag, However, if we compare its specs with other smartphones, it’s pretty disappointing. The phone comes with a 6.5 inches IPS panel with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels.  Furthermore, the phone is equipped with a weak Helio P35 processor which is not up to the mark. In the case of memory space, the under 30 K variant has 3 GB RAM and 32 GB of internal memory. There is a quad rear camera with a 48 MP main camera along with an LED flash. For selfie lovers, there is a selfie camera with a resolution of 8 MP along with an LED flash.  In addition to that, there is a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and a 5000 mAh powerful battery. The smartphone is available in Black, White, Blue, and Red colors.

You must all have realized why I placed it down the list. It has a comparatively very weak chipset and lower memory space and these two attributes influence the performance of the phone significantly. But i presume that brand lovers would still give it a try.
