Best Camera Mobile Phones Under 25000

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 Ai+ Nova 2 Ultra 5G proves that you don't need to spend more to get a good phone. It delivers on all the essentials and pushes the bar with its stunning 1.5K 120 Hz AMOLED display, good gaming, everyday performance and long battery life. However, the software is in dire need of some optimisation, along with the main camera. But its downsides can be overlooked by its impressive spec sheet, which is why it becomes the most value-for-money smartphone for me in 2026.

The Poco M8 looks great, offers a curved AMOLED screen, solid battery life, and fast charging. But its ageing chipset, average single camera, and cluttered HyperOS hold it back immensely. It is easily outmatched by its competitors in the segment, and feels like a weak entry into 2026 from the brand. It can be a decent buy, but only if it is heavily discounted; else there area a ton of better balanced phones out there.
