Top mobiles to purchase below Rs 60,000 in India
The introduction of the OnePlus 12 hasn't led to an immediate reduction in the official price of the OnePlus 11 5G. However, a flat Rs 4,000 instant discount is being offered by Amazon on both versions of the OnePlus 11 5G. As a result, within this budget, you can get the higher-end version of the 11, featuring 16GB RAM and a speedy 256GB UFS 4.0 storage. The phone boasts remarkable specifications, beginning with Qualcomm's former top-of-the-line Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, which remains highly potent.
The phone, with its aluminium body and rounded corners, gives a solid and comfortable feel when held. Its display is a 6.7-inch curved LTPO3 AMOLED with a 3216 x 1440 pixel resolution and a maximum brightness of 1300 nits. This screen, which is compatible with HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, supports a colour depth of 10-bit and a variable refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. The phone's 5000 mAh battery can easily last for a day and a half with moderate usage, and it can be fully charged in less than thirty minutes with the included 100W charger.
The rear features a 50MP main camera with Optical Image Stabilization and color adjustment by Hasselblad. The auxiliary cameras are equally remarkable, boasting a 48MP ultra-wide camera with auto-focus that also functions as a high-quality macro camera, and a 32MP telephoto camera with 2X optical zoom that excels in portrait photography. The OnePlus 11 5G was initially launched with OxygenOS 13, based on Android 13, and can currently be upgraded to Android 14, with further updates expected in the coming years.
The cost of the OnePlus 11 5G with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage in India is Rs 59,990.
The iQOO 12 5G is a high-performance smartphone, arguably the most powerful in its category. It operates on Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, with options of either 12GB RAM and 256GB storage or 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. Similar to the OnePlus 11, it also incorporates the speedy UFS 4.0 storage. The phone boasts a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display that supports 10-bit HDR10+ and has a resolution of 2800 x 1260 pixels with a refresh rate of 144 Hz. Its brightness can reach up to 3000 nits. The phone uses Android 14 combined with FunTouch OS 14.
The back camera setup consists of an impressive trio. It's led by a 50MP primary camera with OIS, complemented by a 50MP ultra-wide camera with auto-focus that also offers macro photography features. Additionally, there's a 64MP periscope telephoto camera with OIS that provides 3X optical zoom and acts as a high-quality portrait camera. The 16MP front camera is great for taking selfies and making video calls. The iQOO 12 5G's battery has a capacity of 5000 mAh and can last up to a day and a half with moderate usage. The included 120W fast charger can fully recharge it in less than half an hour.
The cost of iQOO 12 5G in India is Rs 52,999 for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage version, and Rs 57,999 for the model with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage.
With the release of the iPhone 15, its previous versions – iPhone 14 and iPhone 13, have become considerably cheaper. Generally, Apple products present a more economical option a year or two after they have been launched – making it an ideal time to consider purchasing the iPhone 14 or iPhone 13. The design, features, and specifications of both these models are remarkably similar – a question best directed at Apple! The iPhone 13, due to its lower cost, is arguably the better choice of the two, unless you're superstitious about the number 13.
With this budget, you have the option to select either the latest Apple iPhone 14 or the prior version, the iPhone 13. Both models come with 128GB of storage. They each sport a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED screen, boasting a resolution of 2532 x 1170 pixels, and support both HDR10 and Dolby Vision. Their compact dimensions make them comfortable to hold, and they come with an IP68 rating, indicating their resistance to dust and water. Each phone operates on Apple's former top-tier A15 Bionic chipset, with the iPhone 14 providing an additional 2GB of RAM.
The hardware is adequately robust for handling many tasks, including gaming. There are dual 12MP cameras on the rear, the main one equipped with OIS, while the other can take ultra-wide photos. The quality of photos and videos taken is outstanding, as is typical of iPhones. Both devices are currently operating on iOS 17, and additional updates to the operating system are expected within the next three to four years.
The cost of the Apple iPhone 14 with 128GB storage in India is Rs 57,999, while the Apple iPhone 13 with the same storage capacity is priced at Rs 52,499.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 FE 5G is another excellent choice for those on a budget, and its 256GB version can now be purchased for less than 50K. Like other phones in this range, it has IP68 rated ingress protection and a sleek design. The phone features an aluminum frame and a glass back, both reinforced with Corning Gorilla Glass 5. It comes with a 6.4-inch Full HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen, which has a maximum brightness of 1450 nits, complies with HDR10+ standards, and has a 120 Hz refresh rate.
The camera setup on the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE 5G is highly adaptable. It includes a 50MP main camera with PDAF and OIS, a 12MP ultra-wide camera with a 123-degree field of view, and an 8MP telephoto camera with OIS that provides 3X optical zoom. As anticipated, the camera's performance is exceptional and it's capable of recording videos in 8K resolution. There's also a 10MP front camera for selfies and video chatting.
The Samsung device uses a relatively strong Exynos 2200 processor, with 8GB RAM and 256GB of built-in storage. Its 4500 mAh battery ensures it lasts more than a day with average use and is compatible with 25W rapid charging and 15W cordless charging. It initially came with Android 13 but can be updated to Android 14 using Samsung's One UI 6.
The cost of the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE 5G in India is Rs 46,999 for a model with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage.
