Best Camera Mobile Phones Under 15000

The Redmi Note 14 SE is a budget phone that ticks a lot of boxes. You get an AMOLED display which is bright enough outdoors, loud stereo speakers, decent processor and a really good camera. But the battery size is not up to standard, and you also have to buy the charger separately. If you’re okay with that, this is the perfect package for the segment.

The Galaxy F17 5G is the phone to get if you’re specifically looking for a Samsung phone on budget. It offers a good display, extended OS updates and long-lasting battery. However, it comes with major compromises in hardware, camera and display which make it unappealing compared to other devices in the segment.

The Moto G57 Power delivers excellent battery endurance, a set of capable cameras, a clean software and good performance all at a really affordable price. However, it compromises significantly on the media experience, with a dated LCD panel and average speakers. While the single-year update policy is limited, the phone is still an ideal choice for budget users, and it's easily one of the best sub-Rs 15,000 phones.

The Redmi 15 is a good budget phone, but its entire identity hinges on its 7,000mAh battery. Beyond that, its offers only a single camera, slow charging speed and an ancient display technology. The smartphone fails to impress in its price segment. The Redmi 15 is ideal for those who prioritise battery and screen size above all.

The Galaxy M16 is a dependable budget phone that offers a good AMOLED display, passable processor, versatile camera setup, long software support and a decent battery life. However, it falls short when it comes to the display’s design, subpar charging solution and an OS filled with bloatware. It’s a good pick in this segment if you're fine with its limitations.

The Samsung Galaxy M17 5G is a decent mid-range Android phone for under Rs 15,000. It is designed for people who want a good design with a vivid AMOLED display, good selfie camera and software experience that improves with each update. However, the phone lags behind the competition in terms of performance, low-light camera output, and charging speeds. All in all, the Galaxy M17 is a good value for money phone for casual users.

The Samsung Galaxy F16 makes for a compelling option if you want an affordable phone that’s good for long hours of media consumption. Its biggest strength is the Super AMOLED display, which makes for a fantastic viewing experience. While its design choices and performance are fine for the price, you cannot get a better set of cameras and a 6-year OS update policy anywhere else.

The Oppo K13x 5G is a good budget smartphone that offers a no-fuss experience. It is suited for students and users on a budget who are looking for reliable 5G connectivity and long battery backup. However, the Oppo K13x may fall short for gaming and multimedia enthusiasts. The same story continues on the camera front; they are average at best.
