Best Mobile Phones Under 10000

The Realme Narzo 80 Lite 4G is an entry-level phone that feels solid for everyday use. However, it is not a perfect phone. The excellent battery life makes sure you stay connected all day, but the subpar camera and display are optimized for casual use. No 5G connectivity is a letdown. But at this competitive pricing, Realme is offering an accessible phone for basic use.

For budget conscious folks who want an entry-level phone, the Galaxy M06 5G more than delivers. With its wide 5G connectivity support, strong software support, a large battery with 25W fast charging and 50 MP main camera, it’s a great purchase for people looking to buy their first smartphone. No charger in the box is a bummer, though.

The Galaxy A07 is an entry-level Android phone built with longevity in mind. It offers an unprecedented 6-year OS update promise, which is its primary selling point. While the phone performs decently for the price, it is let down by its large and low resolution display. It doesn’t have enough RAM, and Samsung doesn’t even provide a charger in the box. All in all, it’s a decent phone but there are certainly better options for you to choose.

Moto G06 Power is ideal for elders and people who don’t wish to charge their phone often. It packs in a huge battery, stereo speakers, and an HD display that has a high refresh rate and glass protection. With all this and more, the phone feels heavy in hand but the leather finish back gives a premium appeal. Now, the processor may feel a bit underpowered but we can’t complain much for the price. Overall, the Moto G06 Power is an entry-level phone you can get for your family without a second thought.

The Poco C71 brings an impressive design, a smooth display, clean software and commendable battery life at an inexpensive price. If you are upgrading from a feature phone and are on a strict budget, this is the best companion you can possibly have. However, if you want futureproofing, better performance, and a better camera, it falls short. Also, getting a 5G phone is the way to go at this point.

The Infinix Smart 10 is ideal for those looking to own a secondary or an entry-level smartphone. The display is bright enough and supports high refresh rate and AOD. It offers reliable battery backup and protection against dust and water. However, it is not ideal when it comes to multitasking and overall performance.

Redmi A5 is a decent upgrade for users coming from a feature phone. The design feels fresh, unlike other budget phones. With light usage, the phone can last more than a day easily and tops up in 2 hours. Redmi is also promising two years of OS upgrades, which is good for longevity. Overall, for basic usage like calling and multimedia, Redmi A5 4G is a decent choice. But go for the higher 4GB RAM variant if you are planning to get one.

The Lava Storm Lite is the perfect budget phone that doesn’t have glaring omissions often seen on other options in the segment. It offers reliable performance, display quality, and imaging with no bloatware or ad-laden software. However, being an affordable phone, there has been some cost-cutting measures in the form of a slow charger and insufficient storage space. So, if you can live with that, the Storm Lite makes for a solid budget Android phone.

The Itel A95 can be an appealing option for those who want an all-rounder on a budget without significant compromises. It delivers a capable blend of chipset, camera and battery inside a plastic build. Yeah, the charging speeds and LCD screen, though 120Hz, are not up to standard but those are calculated trade-offs for the price. But if those really matter to you, I believe you might find other suitable options out there.

Tecno Spark GO 2 is a well-rounded budget phone that impresses with its attractive design, reliable performance, decent camera versatility, and strong battery life. However, there are few notable issues in Wi-Fi and hotspot connectivity and slower charging speeds. But for the price, it remains a decent pick for users switching from a dumb phone.

For the price, the Lava Shark 2 offers an incredible value for the money, with its stellar battery life, big and smooth display, as well as a reliable 50 MP main camera. The performance is not too bad at all either, considering the price, making it a great option for those on a super tight budget.

If you’re on a super tight budget and can’t go a rupee over 8.5K, the Tecno Pop X is a stellar choice in the segment. The big HD+ 120 Hz display, reliable performance, dual 4G VoLTE connectivity and Android 15 offer solid value for the money. While more RAM + storage variants would have been much welcome, if all you need is a reliable secondary 4G phone for the elders or kids, it’s more than enough.
