Pros: Vivid display, Loud speakers, Sleek design, Fast charging
Cons: Cluttered software experience, Lowlight photography
Verdict: The Redmi Note 13 Pro won`t disappoint if sleek design, fast charging, good battery, and cameras matter to you. It also offers one of the best displays in the segment. Additionally, the native reading mode continues to make the reading experience pleasant. However, the phone is still awaiting the Android 14, while other OEMs have already started offering it out of the box. The Note 13 Pro cameras perform reliably in daylight, but low light performance still needs some improvements.

Verdict: The iQOO Z9s` battery life is one of its strongest aspects, helping it stand out in its price segment, and the phone also shines on the design and display front. Moreover, the handset`s performance ranks second in its class, just behind its predecessor, the iQOO Z9. The cameras are decent but could have benefitted from some improvements to better compete with rivals. The software comes with standard two years of major software updates.

Pros: Long battery backup, 4K video recording for front and rear cameras, 4 years of Android OS promise, NFC support
Cons: Bulky build, Slow charging, Low-light photography needs improvements
Verdict: For dialy work, the Samsung Galaxy M35 5G is a good choice, especially if battery life matters to you. Samsung has also been thoughtful to add NFC support, which may help users relying significantly on digital transactions. The new Exynos chipset provides improved performance over last year`s model. However, Samsung still needs to improve the low-light camera performance, perhaps in the next iteration. Reducing the weight without compromising battery capacity would also be a significant step forward.

Verdict: The Moto G85 is arguably the most premium-looking smartphone in its segment. Its near-bezel-less pOLED curved screen and Dolby Atmos speakers deliver an impressive viewing experience. The battery life is commendable, and the camera capabilities produce social media-ready images with ease. However, the Moto G85 falls short in performance compared to its competitors, which makes it difficult to recommend despite its other strengths.

Verdict: The OnePlus Nord CE4 Lite is all about the display and battery, even though the company boasts its upgraded camera system. The design has changed, which I quite like, though I would`ve preferred different colour options. OnePlus also took a big bet by retaining the same Qualcomm chipset powering the Nord CE3 Lite. You won`t face issues with daily work, but gaming may require more juice. OnePlus also needs to focus on improving low-light photography on its budget offerings.

Verdict: The Samsung Galaxy F55 5G shares a stark similarity with the Galaxy M55 (review), which is Amazon.in exclusive. The new F-series phone, meanwhile, is available online via Flipkart and surpasses the M-series in terms of design. The F55`s vegan leather back is particularly commendable. Additionally, the phone delivers respectable performance across most aspects.

Cons: Selfie camera struggles in low-light, Camera doesn`t capture skin tones well
Verdict: With the MediaTek Dimensity 7050 chipset, the Narzo 70 can handle even demanding tasks efficiently. In its price range, the phone offers one of the best displays and a decent camera performance. However, it does struggle with capturing skin tones accurately and the selfie camera performance in low-light situations has room for improvement. Overall, this phone is a good buy for the price if your priority is performance.

Cons: No ultra-wide camera sensor, Processor could have been better
Verdict: Tecno POVA 6 Pro comes with meaningful upgrades over its predecessor and shines in aspects like the vibrant display, long battery life, fast charging speed, and useful software features. One of the key aspects missing from the handset, which was also missing on its predecessor, is an ultra-wide sensor. The smartphone`s introductory pricing of Rs 17,999 makes it a good deal, but for the full price of Rs 19,999, it does need more thought.

Verdict: The OPPO F25 proves to be a reliable smartphone if design, cameras, and battery performance matter to you. It also boasts a tall 6.7-inch AMOLED display, which offers punchy colours. However, the viewing experience gets slightly hampered due to the lack of stereo speakers. There`s Android 14-based ColorOS out-of-the-box, though the pre-installed apps make the experience cluttered. If these things don`t matter, the OPPO F25 Pro is a decent choice considering the price.
