After almost 4 years of usage, my OnePlus 3t has started screen bleeding and everyday it is increasing. So its evitable it will die in some time. Time for new phone in this same
15k – 17k range is tricky. A wide range to phones is available.
I have finalised 3 phones
Realme 7 / Realme Narzo 20 Pro / Poco X3
What are your suggestions?

Hardly 5 – 10 will be available for sale. So I am not positive. Its is flipkart
Do check M series by Samsung.
I kinda avoid Exynos and also only 60hz refresh rate
Poco x3 is heavy and expensive among 3 and i don’t think it would deliver enough value for extra price as 90hz or 120hz both are good and 732 n g95 wont make much difference. Though some Bluetooth gamepads dont work with mediatek . I would say rest 2 are same in most aspects. realme 7 has bit bigger battery n bit slower speed for charging and better main camera as compared to narzo at same price. M not sure if realme 7 would have better built quality but matt finish back is better than glossy one when its plastic.
To me 30mins or 65mins wont make much difference if i just have to charge it once a day also such fast charging is not a mature technology so it may have adverse effect on battery.
My preference is Realme 7 as well. Had they given 65w charger here then people would have flocked towards realme 7 and ignored narzo. but wonder if realme will give 2 major android upgrades since the new android 11 roadmap excludes devices with just 1 android version upgrade.
Increase your budget to 21000.. u will get redmi k20 pro using discount in bbd…
NOTA.
Realme is not soo good bro.
But I’ll stick pick poco if you can manage the weight.
On paper this has superb great specs but I hope they give some 10% extra off on this too. Or else Manu bhai is also releasing note 10 series soon. Should be worth the wait.
Poco has MIUI. I don’t know how I will bear that torturous os 
Poco X3 should be your only option under 17k.
Samsung M 51, good phone,but price on high side
What about Samsung A50s from flipkart bb sale? Samsung pay is a boom feature to have. I don’t mind performance, just for day to day use. I used honor. No more realmes, redmis for me. Samsung, Nokia or Moto. Any suggestions from these brands? <15k
I upgraded from my Oneplus 3t to K20pro this month. The flagship processor means you dont see any logs and trust me you see micro lags on all 700 series processors you will find in around 20k range.
Oneplus Nord also is a terrible phone. k2pro is cheaper, better looking, no punch hole full display, amoled screen, good battery, very good main camera plus ultra wide camera (I cant tell you how useful the ultra wide is). Plus it has great GCAM support and very good custom rom support too. So all in all you cant go wrong with this phone.
Its a huge upgrade in every way possible except face unlock and fingerprint are a little slower.
I also got the battery of OP3T changed recently under the battery protection plan that was complimentary and gave 50% off on batttery price (1100 approx total cost) and get 10hrs of Youtube play back without any sim. Will probably be a bit lower with sim card. So it becomes a great secondary phone or primary till you find something you like.
