The Realme C33 is a great budget smartphone with a big 6.5-inch display, T612 processor, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage. It also has a decent dual rear camera setup with a 50MP main sensor, and the 5,000mAh battery will keep you going all day long. Also, check out realme care+ too for some peace of mind, will cover your phone from accidents and stuff.

Infinix phones.
I use one (Hot 20 play or something similar) since past one year, and no issues yet.
It has bloatware, but with enough storage space these days ... it hardly matters.
Plus it offers conversation recording.

Better to purchase a used phone instead of new at such low budgets.

Nokia C22 looks decent under your budget

I second this. Unlike popular belief I don't think that entry level phones are getting better at all.

forget getting better, its getting worse.
even new poco/redmi phones are getting 720p displays in around 10k-12k range. i think its the new 13c model.

Aye that's what I meant. The SoC's are also getting worse it seems. Unisoc and what not. No longer the good old MTK G chipsets.
Meanwhile Qualcomm seems obsessed with the 695 lol.

I third this. Stay away from any Android phone with less than 4 GB RAM. No new phone can possibly have that for 7K. Used is the way to go. I'm using my used phone bought from TE for over 2 years now. Incredible how long phones can actually work flawlessly. I have absolutely zero reasons to upgrade even in 2024.

Also, pick a phone with good custom ROM support.. Snapdragon powered Androids take the cake here. As for me, I hit the jackpot. Already getting A14 ROMs.

Agree. Lower pricing was a marketing strategy to popularise these brands. They will increase the margins to make up for what they had given up earlier.
