Features to be considered before buying phones under Rs 50,000
For someone looking at phones at this price-segment should consider the following features.
Build Quality
The devices in this price range are expected to have a premium look and feel. So, the build quality of the device is essential in this price range. As premium devices, many devices in this price segment also offer glass panels with metal side frames, while some still have a plastic body.
Display
The size of the display depends on your preference, with most devices offering 6 inches or larger size. However, you should also consider the resolution and the type of display. At this price, the device should offer at least an AMOLED display with an FHD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels.
Processor and OS
The selection of a device with a better chipset is essential because its performance depends on its processor. A good rule of thumb for a chipset is to go for a higher clock speed expressed in GHz and a higher number of cores, especially if you are a heavy user.
Always consider devices with OS based on the latest Android versions and less bloatware. Also, choose devices that provide software updates for the long term in the future.
Camera
As many companies are pushing hard for a higher number of cameras, most of them are gimmick cameras, so don’t fall for that trick. It is important to note that a camera with a higher MP does not always mean a better camera. Factors like aperture, autofocus, ISO levels, image processing also determines the camera performance.
However, quad-camera setups with some gimmick lens are unavoidable these days, so it’s better to choose a camera setup with a good range of features, good image processing, and as a natural result as possible. However, it depends on your preferences.
Storage
Another factor affecting the device’s performance is the RAM and ROM configuration on the device. Most devices come with either 6 or 8 GB of RAM at this price, and it is always a good idea to go for the 8 GB RAM variant.
With higher MP cameras, 4K recording capabilities, and a wide variety of apps, the device needs more storage so go for at least 128 GB of internal storage. It is better to have an expandable memory through a microSD card.
Battery
It is essential to look at the battery life of the device. Many devices at this price offer a battery size of at least 4000 mAh, however higher mAh does not always mean higher battery life; it depends on the device optimization.
Fast charging support is also quite common these days, so look for devices with better fast charging. Wireless charging included in the device is an added bonus; however, it’s not the end of the world if the device does not support it.
Security
Most brands offer fingerprint sensors and face unlock for security options. With the use of AMOLED panels, the in-display optical fingerprint sensor is quite common for devices in this segment.
It is always a good idea to do some research beforehand and check out the reviews of the devices from trusted websites or YouTube channels before buying the devices.
