Best Mobile Phones Under 35000

The OnePlus Nord CE 6 delivers a smooth, reliable everyday experience with a vibrant display, fluid software and exceptional battery life that easily lasts almost two days. It handles multitasking and casual gaming well, though performance isn't class-leading. The design is practical and comfortable, if not particularly distinctive. Cameras perform well in good lighting but can be inconsistent otherwise. If you can overlook these compromises, it's a dependable, fuss-free phone that gets the job done.

Poco X8 Power's massive battery delivers excellent backup, while the sharp AMOLED screen, capable main camera, stereo speakers and long software support make the experience well-rounded. The performance and average ultrawide camera are where Poco has cut corners. However, if battery life matters most, these compromises are easier to live with, as this Poco X8 Power doesn't just have power, but it knows how to make it last.

The OnePlus Nord CE 5 is easily the strongest Core Edition phone yet, packing a massive battery, a super bright AMOLED display, a powerful Dimensity processor, good cameras, and long-term software support. All of this at a starting price of Rs 24,999 makes it a solid recommendation for the price.

Starting at Rs 34,999, the Vivo T5 5G gets the essentials right with a gorgeous display, consistent performance and a battery that easily lasts a full day. The ultrawide camera and charging speeds lag a little, but neither of them are dealbreakers. With the ongoing RAM crisis pushing prices up, the Vivo T5 5G is an easy recommendation in this price segment.

The Redmi Note 15 Pro shines as a stylish yet durable smartphone that can withstand submersion in water and accidental drops. It features a stunning display and long-lasting battery life. However, the outdated software, average cameras, and middle-of-the-road performance hold it back from being the segment's top contender. It would be a good pick if you prioritise durability, but for anyone else, there are better options out there.

The Realme P3 Ultra is the kind of mid-range phone that ticks all the boxes and nails the essentials with surprising finesse. The cameras are reliable, software is mature and performance is amazing for the price. The stunning quad-curved AMOLED is an absolute delight, and all of this is wrapped up in a body that feels more expensive than it actually is. Sure, there's some bloatware and minor quirks, but they fade fast once you start using the phone daily. After a week with it, I can confidently say that the Realme P3 Ultra is just the perfect blend for most people.

The Motorola Edge 70 turns the tables on slim phones, proving that you don't need to make compromises or pay a premium to enjoy a super-thin and lightweight smartphone experience. It packs a big and beautiful display, and a battery that can actually last you a day, decent performance. It has an average camera setup and is bogged down by a subpar UI. But if looks are all that matter to you, then the Moto Edge 70 won't disappoint at all.

The Lava Agni 4 is a promising midrange phone that wins you over with its sharp, stylish looks and bright but beautiful display. It brings a lot of improvements, like the improved performance, upgraded cameras, and 4K 60 FPS recording, both front and back. But the OS needs more polishing, as it lets down the entire experience. The cameras are just average, and the speaker and haptics are just not great. Overall, it is a good phone for the price, but certainly far from the best.

The Nothing Phone 4b brings the budget DNA of CMF phones in an aesthetically better wrapping. It comes with a smooth AMOLED screen, a semi-transparent design, long battery life, and clean software with some customisation options. While the cameras and performance might not be the best, it's still a practical option for anyone looking for an affordable midrange phone in the current market.
