• Don’t shop Redmi 13C at ₹9499 with HD+ display, and MTK 6100+ processor (rebrand of Helio G99). Better add 500 bucks extra and get iQOO Z9 Lite 5G.

Samsung F14 5G or Samsung M14 5G are also decent phones to buy under 10K. However, the base variants seem to be unavailable presently and on top of it, you’d have to buy a charger separately adding to some extra cost.

Smartphones under ₹15,000 have drastically improved over the last years. Gone are the days of poor battery, a load of bloatware & ads (okay, not entirely) and design. Now you can buy smartphones with clean software such as Lava Blaze X or buy a performance beast such as CMF Phone 1 or Moto G54 5G or you can even get yourself a battery monster of a smartphone such as the iQOO Z9X 5G which comes with 6000mAh battery. Below are such good, truly value for money smartphone deals in Amazon Great Freedom Sale 2024 & Flipkart Flagship Sale:

These would be our picks for buying mobile phones in this Independence Sale under 15K budget. Of course, you can pick and choose further what fits your requirements best. iQOO Z9X while offers great battery comes with a pretty okayish processor. You get far better performance with Moto G54 and CMF Phone 1.

Update: POCO X6 Neo is also a good mobile deal under 13K (offer price). Courtesy & thanks to @Simbha3

❌Some mobile deals to avoid under 15K❌:

• Avoid Redmi 13 5g at ₹12999 which comes with the same processor as POCO M6 Pro under 10K

• Avoid HMD Crest - No OS updates are promised for now, Unisoc T760 above 10K price doesn’t sound appealing

• Oppo K12X, a phone from OPPO that was almost about to make it to our list, sadly disappointed us with its single speakers, and an HD+ display when others are offering FHD+. You also get the same processor in iQOO Z9 Lite which costs about 10K.

• Don’t shop for the new POCO M6 Plus at 13k, you get the same chip in POCO M6 PRO at 9K rupees. Otherwise, go for other better options mentioned above.

• Avoid POCO X5 5G for outdated Android 12 out of the box & overpriced Snapdragon 695

Finally, we have entered the average selling price of most phones sold in India as of 2024. Yep, its around 20K.

You get the likes of brands like iQOO, OnePlus, Motorola, Realme, Samsung, and POCO here. But we are only talking about “the best smartphones under 20K.” right? Well, in our view it has to be iQOO Z9 5G, Infinix GT 20 Pro (if you don’t mind taking a bet), and POCO X6 5G. These phones offer the best value for your money.

Bottom line: Looking for a good smartphone to buy in Independence Sale 2024 in India specifically under 20K? Check these out:

Note: Infinix GT 20 Pro while is slightly costlier than 20K, users can try to exchange any old phone and get the price down to 20K. There’s a ₹3000 exchange bonus.

❌Some mobile deals to avoid under 20K❌:

• Avoid Honor X9b with SD 6 Gen 1 at ₹19,999. Better consider buying if comes under 16K

• Avoid Realme Narzo 70 Pro with MTK 7050 chip. Instead, the iQOO Z9 at a similar price is a more value-for-money deal with MTK 7200 processor. In terms of performance, the MTK 7050 is also quite similar to the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 present in iQOO Z9X under 15K.

• For the same reasons above, you can also avoid Realme P1 Pro with SD 6 Gen 1 at 17K deal price.

• Avoid POCO X5 Pro 5G - comes with Android 12

• Avoid overpriced Realme 12 Pro at ₹20,749 deal price. The phone packs an SD 6 Gen 1 chip present in phones under 15K

Moving on to our list of the best mobile deals in Amazon & Flipkart August sale, we have got top 3 contenders in the 25K price segment. The Samsung S21 FE 5G is probably the best smartphone deal in Amazon Freedom Sale. Customers can opt for an SBI Credit Card & EMI transaction and get the Samsung S21 FE for under 25K.

But, a small heads-up, Galaxy AI is not coming to Samsung S21 FE. If that is not a big deal to you, you can surely go for this super value for money phone under 25k. Here are all the best Flipkart sale & Amazon Freedom sale mobile deals under Rs.25,000:

Having a difficult choice to make? Go with the Samsung S21 FE for longer updates, the best camera, and good performance.

Buy the Nothing Phone 2A deal if Nothing OS interests you and if your mobile design/look is important to you. Performance is better in Samsung S21 FE.

Go with OnePlus Nord CE4 for higher in-build storage and better battery life.

.

❌Some mobile deals to avoid under 25K❌:

• Avoid the Moto Edge 50 Fusion because you get better performance, more quality & clearer photos, more updates and a big upside, an expandable storage with OnePlus Nord CE4 - things that do feel missing in Moto Edge 50 Fusion. What the Moto Edge 50 Fusion does have better than the Nord CE 4 is a better build, IP68 rating and 4K video recording.

• Avoid Realme 13 Pro with SD 7S Gen 2. You get the same chip in POCO X6 under 20K.

One of the best Flipkart Flagship Smartphone deals is the POCO F6 which packs in Snapdragon 8S gen 3, a chip that has the same GPU as SD 7+ Gen 3. While the SD 8S gen 3 chip is great for video rendering, apps, photos, etc, the Mediatek 8300 (a competitor) is slightly better in gaming and managing heat. Nevertheless, the POCO F6 5G is still a good value for money phone with 12GB RAM & 512GB Storage.

Realme GT 6T, another beast of a phone is also a much better buy over the Honor 200 5G. OnePlus Nord 4 and Moto Edge 50 are again some of the best mobile deals to buy in this Independence Sale on Amazon & Flipkart.

You might also be wondering if Nothing Phone 2A Plus is a good buy at 26K deal price in the Flipkart Independence Sale. Well, the phone is almost similar to Nothing Phone 2a. The only major difference is you get 4K front camera recording and better gaming in Nothing Phone 2A Plus. If these two things aren’t a big deal to you, save up your money and get the Nothing Phone 2A instead.

.

❌Some mobile deals to avoid under 30K❌:

• Nothing Phone 2A vs Nothing Phone 2A Plus? Avoid the Nothing Phone 2A Plus (unless you need 4K front camera recording + better gaming).

• Avoid Moto Edge 50 Pro - You get better quality specs in OnePlus Nord 4. The only major upside Moto Edge 50 Pro has is that it offers slightly better stabilization in the camera.

• Avoid Oppo F27 Pro+ for now. Too overpriced for a phone that only has “durability” as its USP and packs in an MTK D7050 at 29K price (for context you find this chip easily in phones under 15K price)

• Avoid Honor 200 5G at 29K deal price - No charger, no HDR 10 support, customer support is also a bit of a question mark❓Better buy GT 6T or OnePlus Nord 4.

• Avoid Samsung A35 when you get the same Exynos 1380 processor in the much cheaper and latest Samsung M35 5G

Finally, we have now arrived at a price segment wherein customers can expect to get some of the best camera phones. Talking about the camera, the Samsung S32 FE deal in Flipkart Independence Sale is pretty good under 35K. Though battery life and heavy performance are not the strength of the phone.

To compete against the camera phone deal of Samsung, Google Pixel 7 is also available at a very attractive deal price of 31K. The camera Pixel 7 (and even the software experience) offers beats even the latest OnePlus 12R (which costs 40K) Though again, battery life is kind of compromised.

iQOO Neo 9 Pro smartphone deal in Freedom Sale of Amazon at 32K deal price is good but the phone is more a jack of all trades and master of none.

❌Some mobile deals to avoid under 40K❌:

• Avoid Xiaomi 14 Civi at 40K, better to buy under 40k

• Avoid Samsung A55 with Exynos1480

• Avoid Oppo Reno 10 Pro with 778G processor - available in POCO X5 Pro around 17K launched last year. You can get better value for money phones under 40K than the Oppo Reno 10 Pro with a year-old processor

• Pixel 7 Pro and Pixel 8a are both available at the same price of ₹42,999. So which one to get? If you need a better camera (triple camera in Pixel 7 Pro vs dual camera in Pixel 8a), more RAM (12GB vs 8GB in Pixel 8a) and more battery life, go with Pixel 7 Pro. If you need a Pixel phone for the long haul, stick to Pixel 8A.

The best option would be to wait for the Big Billion Days on Flipkart wherein you’ll likely get Pixel 7 Pro under 36K🔥

It’s time for some flagship smartphone deals in the Flipkart Independence Sale & Amazon Great Freedom Festival.

These are some value-for-money deals under the 50K price segment in the Flipkart Flagship Sale and Amazon Great Freedom Festival Sale 2024. Vivo V40 Pro which is a new launch at a sale price of ₹44,999 mainly focuses on the camera. However, it falls a bit flat in front of competitors like the iPhone 13 at 48K, Pixel 8a at 43K and for performance, the iQOO 12 5G is of course a beast of a phone.

.

Some of the top Amazon August sale mobile deals & Flipkart Flagship sale smartphone offers above ₹50,000 are iPhone 15, Samsung S24 on Amazon at ₹55,490 and Samsung S23 Ultra 5G. For flagships, the Flipkart Big Billion Days Sale and Amazon Great Indian Festival Sale are worth waiting for. By this time, the iPhone 16 series would have also entered the market further reducing the price of the iPhone 15, iPhone 14 and iPhone 13 series.
