What the Experts Are Saying?

Realme P4x in hand in silver colourway

The Realme P4x combines one of the best processors in the segment with a ginormous battery, all in a pretty sleek form factor. It excels at gaming and is capable of lasting two days on a charge. However, the camera performance is average and charging it back up takes a lot of time. If you prioritise speed and stamina over others, it's one of the best value phones you can get right now.

Pros

  • Excellent performance in the segment
  • Great battery endurance
  • Good software experience
  • Surprisingly good build quality

Cons

  • Average cameras
  • Persistent software bloat
  • 144 Hz refresh rate is gimmicky

What the Experts Are Saying?

Vivo T5x with its box contents scattered behind it against a green background

The Vivo T5x is the equivalent of a one-eyed king in the land of the blind. It is a competent budget phone that gets a lot right, offering a durable build quality, reasonable performance, long battery life and a functional camera. But it fumbles big with an IPS LCD screen and a bloatware-infested OS that sours an otherwise acceptable spec sheet. It is not the best option out there. However, given the shrinking market of budget phones, it might just be the most practical one.

Pros

  • IP 68/69 dust and water protection
  • Takes good photos in day and night
  • Battery lasts more than a day
  • Delivers adequate everyday performance
  • Circular LED indicator handy for notifications

Cons

  • Display could've been premium
  • Quite heavy to carry around
  • Camera misses out on OIS

What the Experts Are Saying?

shot of a hand holding the Nothing Phone (3a) Lite in front of a gradient red background

The Nothing Phone (3a) Lite is quite the dependable budget phone with its smooth software, bright AMOLED display and reliable battery backup. It handles pretty much everything, from regular multitasking to casual gaming, though stutters appear under heavier loads. The cameras are also not quite there and could certainly use some fine-tuning. While it's a solid daily driver, the cheaper CMF Phone 2 Pro offers a similar overall experience, leaving the (3a) Lite hard to justify.

Pros

  • Cool transparent design
  • Bright AMOLED screen
  • Mostly clean software
  • Long-term software support
  • Dependable battery
  • Reliable main camera

Cons

  • Stutters under heavy multitasking or gaming
  • Low-light shots need improvement
  • Single bottom-firing speaker
  • Slightly pricier
