BEST POCKET-FRIENDLY PHONES OF 2023: REDMI 12, SAMSUNG GALAXY M34, MORE


ONEPLUS NORD CE 3 LITE, MOTO G84, AND MORE TO CHOOSE FROM.

2023 has seen a number of smartphones arrive in the market. While each
smartphone brings a set of unique selling propositions to the table, some phones
come with what many consider to be the ultimate competitive edge in the world of
tech: an affordable price tag. While many brands can argue that for the features
they offer, all their smartphones are affordable for a particular audience,
there are a select few that punch well above their spec-to-price ratio, making
good tech accessible to a greater number of people. 

As we come to the end of the year, we decided to have a battle of the
budget-best in the smartphone market, and in the end, these emerged as the
ultimate competitively priced smartphones launched in 2023: 


REDMI 12 5G: 5G'S BUDGET AMBASSADOR 


Price: Rs 11,999

If aggressive pricing is a parameter, it is a given that Xiaomi’s phones will
make the list. The Chinese brand has a knack for delivering great tech at
surprisingly affordable prices, and in 2023, no Xiaomi phone reflected this as
much as the Redmi 12 5G. The phone offers a lot at a surprisingly low price,
making it the best phone for anyone who wants to experience 5G on a tight
budget. It comes with the very capable Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor,
which is generally seen in more expensive devices, paired with a tall IPS LCD
6.79-inch full-HD+ display with 90Hz refresh rate. 

The Redmi 12 5G comes with a dual camera set up on the back with a 50-megapixel
main sensor (which does the heavy lifting), a 2-megapixel depth sensor, and an
8-megapixel front camera that can take good enough selfies for Instagram and
video calls. 

Powering the phone is a 5,000mAh battery which can easily last you for a day and
a half on normal usage, with 18W fast charging support and a 22.5W fast charger
in the box. Running all this is Android 13 out of the box, topped with the
feature-rich MIUI 14. To top this, the phone also comes with a premium-ish
design with glass on both front and back along with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 and
IP53 rating for protection. 

We dare you to get a better 5G phone for less. 








SAMSUNG GALAXY M34 5G: FEATURE-LADEN GALAXY 

Price: Rs 16,499

Samsung is a brand that is just as home in the flagship segment as it is in the
budget one. And in the latter, 2023 saw it unleash the very good Galaxy M34 5G.
The phone delivered a spec dollop, bringing a high-quality display and cameras,
at a pleasantly low price. 

The Galaxy M34 5G came with a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED full-HD+ display with 120Hz
refresh rate with Corning Gorilla glass 5, backed by Samsung’s in-house Exynos
1280 processor with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB storage, which could be expanded via
a microSD card. The phone’s main camera setup has three sensors — a 50-megapixel
main sensor with OIS (a rarity at this price), an 8-megapixel ultrawide, and a
2-megapixel macro sensor. A 13-megapixel sensor handles selfies and video calls.
That main camera is one of the best in the segment, as is the display, although
some might not like the waterdrop notch. 

A huge 6,000mAh battery runs the Samsung Galaxy M34’s show, and can keep the
phone going for a good two days on a single charge. The phone also comes with
support for 25W fast charging, although with no charger. 

The Galaxy M34 runs on Android 13 out of the box with Samsung’s feature-packed
OneUI on top. Given Samsung's update record, the M34 5G will be up to Android
speed for a while. Its display, cameras and battery life were stunning for its
price point. 








ONEPLUS NORD CE 3 LITE 5G: ALL-ROUNDER 

Price: Rs 19,999

After a series of flagship killers and flagships, OnePlus decided to camp in the
mid-segment with its Nord series.  And it has made itself comfortable in this
territory as well. Its OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite was one of the most well-rounded
and powerful devices under Rs 20,000 in 2023. The phone comes with a typically
strong OnePlus spec game. 

The device brings a tall 6.72-inch full-HD+ display to the table with a high
120Hz refresh rate. Some might frown upon the absence of AMOLED, but the LCD
display on the phone is bright and colourful. 

The Nord CE 3 Lite runs on the well-known Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 processor with
8GB RAM, which is more than sufficient to not only get you through your everyday
chores but also to give you a good enough taste of some power-hungry games (with
some tweaked settings). The phone’s biggest USP is the 108-megapixel main
sensor, which delivers some very good photography, although the two 2-megapixel
sensors accompanying it are more decorative than anything else. There is a
16-megapixel sensor at the front for selfies and video calls. 

The device is powered by a 5,000mAh battery which comes with support for 67W
fast charging and a whopping 80W fast charging brick in the box The Nord CE 3
Lite runs on Android 13 out of the box with OnePlus’ clean, minimal Oxygen OS on
top. 

It also comes with a typical elegant design, although we personally like the
flashy Pastel Lime shade of the device more than the understated Chromatic Grey
one. Want the OnePlus experience on a budget? Never Settle for any other phone
than this one(plus)!








MOTO G84 5G: HELLO, NO-NONSENSE, STYLISH MOTO 

Price: Rs 18,999

Almost 10 years ago, Motorola surprised the world with the OG Moto G, a
no-nonsense device that delivered an amazingly smooth experience for under Rs
15,000. The Moto G84 follows in its footsteps. It comes with a 6.5-inch P-OLED
full-HD+ display with a high 120Hz refresh rate, surrounded by really slim
bezels and an equally slim chin which is rare to see in this price band. 

This is backed by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 processor paired with an
impressive 12 GB RAM, which can take care of your everyday and even some power
hungry needs. In the camera department, the phone features a dual rear camera
with a 50-megapixel main sensor with OIS paired with an 8-megapixel ultrawide
camera. The front carries a 16-megapixel selfie sensor. Big numbers which
deliver a very good performance.

The phone runs on a 5,000mAh battery and comes with support for 30W fast
charging.  As Moto believes in stock-ness of Android, the phone runs on plain
Android 13, which means you get next to no bloatware on the phone, even while
you get a few extra features like Motorola’s gesture controls. 

It is no Plain Jane either. Its Viva Magenta shade is Pantone’s colour of the
year, and the colour along with the vegan leather texture of the back, help the
phone stand out of the smartphone crowd. 

Add IP54 dust and water resistance and this is a perfect phone for those who
want a device with minimum fuss and maximum performance, with just a touch of
style.








MOTO RAZR 40 5G: A FLIP THAT'S FINANCE-FRIENDLY  

Price: Rs 59,999

Many might wonder what a Rs.60,000 phone doing in the most pocket-friendly list
of phones. Well, we take pride in being inclusive and we could not have been
inclusive without including a foldable that broke away from its crazy high price
chains in 2023. 

While foldables generally come with prices closer to Rs 1,00,000, the Moto Razr
40 not only comes from a well-established brand but also with a comparatively
affordable price tag. Launched at Rs 59,999 and now available at an even more
affordable price of Rs 49,999, the Moto Razr 40 is arguably the most affordable
2023 flip phone in the market from an established brand. And that relatively low
price does not mean it is a spec pushover either.  

The phone has a tall 6.9-inch full-HD+ LTPO pOLED display with 144Hz refresh
rate. There is a smaller 1.5-inch AMOLED cover display in which you can see your
notifications with ease. The phone runs on the very capable Qualcomm Snapdragon
7 Gen 1 processor, backed by 8GB RAM — a combination that can handle everything
from daily tasks to some hefty multi-tasking and gaming (do remember to tweak
settings). 

The dual camera setup on the device consists of a superb 64-megapixel main
sensor with OIS and a 13-megapixel ultrawide sensor, and a very good
32-megapixel sensor on the main display for selfies and video calls. 

The Razr 40 comes with a decent 4,200mAh battery with 30W wired charging and 5W
wireless charging support and there is a 33W charger in the box. 

Since this is a Moto, the phone runs on stock Android 13 with next to no
bloatware. The phone is not water resistant but does come with a water-repellent
coating. And hey, this is from the brand that gave us the OG Razr — of course,
it looks very good indeed! Who said new flip phones cost the earth!?
