We cherrypick the best phones available in India this month - a blend of high end to budget phones. Take your pick and let the best phone find a place in your pocket.
1. Moto G Price- Rs.12,499(8GB) and Rs 13,999(16GB)
Moto G is still selling strong even after 4 months of release and its no surprise why. The device is still the best mid-range device out their in the sub 15K category. It is powered by a Snapdragon Quad-Core processor clocked at a 1.2Ghz with a 1GB RAM. The 4.7 inch full HD display has a excellent pixel density of 326ppi which is still a rarity in this segment.
Build Quality is top notch and the phone has a certain feel good factor attached to it. The rubberized back panel and the plain yet bold design lines are impressive. Battery backup stands good at a complete day of mixed usage. If you’re looking for a mid-segment phone with all the elements then Moto G brings the best package.
2. Gionee Elife S5.5 Price –Rs.19,749
Gionee Elife S5.5
is the sleekest smartphone we have come across. Extremely thin chassis and the sharp design elements makes the device look like a B-2 fighter plane. The fit and finish is top notch and the glass like treatment at the back looks classy. Its powered by a MediaTek Octa core processor at 1.7GHz and a 2GB RAM. It's a great buy if your looking out for a well-crafted smartphone that doesn’t compromise on the quality.
3. HTC Desire 816 Price -Rs.23,990
Desire 816 is a very strong mid segment contender. It packs a gigantic 5.5 inch display unit with good viewing angles. The screen blends with the bezel giving a dual tone look. HTC Desire has a surround sound Boom speakers integrated for the audiophiles. Powered by a Snapdragon 400 churning out a respectable 1.6GHz, Desire 816 doesn’t lack in any of the aspects when it comes to performance. Primary camera takes shape in the form of a 13-megapixel sensor. Autofocus is extremely precise and latches pretty fast. If you are obsessed with the idea of selfies then fear not HTC has incorporated a 5 -megapixel sensor for the secondary camera.
4. Alcatel Onetouch Idol X+ Price- Rs. 15,814
Not many people are aware of this marvel from the French manufacturer. Idol X+ is a beast when it comes to performer. It is fitted with a 2GHz Octa-Core processor and 2GB of RAM. The screen stands at 5-inches with a iPhone rivaling pixel density of 440ppi. The 13-megapixel camera is a bliss for shutterbugs and the Digital Image stabilization works marvels. Design and build quality is excellent with no untidy bits. Alcatel to entice you further supports dual sim.
If you intend to go for a powerful machine on a budget and yet get access to the best in class features then the Alcatel Onetouch Idol X+ is the perfect smartphone for you.
5. Samsung Galaxy S5 Price- Rs. 34,390
Samsung had recently been in the line of fire for over pricing its flagship. Galaxy S5 has been subjected to a couple of price axing and finally its retailing at 35k. I would say that 35k for a 2014 flagship from Samsung is something irresistible. The 16-megapixel camera with ISOCELL, Fingerprint scanner, IP61 certification and the powerful pair of Exynos chip is what the S5 is built up of. The design looks slightly dated but is high on the utilitarian front.
6. Apple iPhone 5S Price-Rs. 43,599(16GB)
iPhone 5S figures out in this list because it is still the Mecca of computing power and considered the most exclusive. Apple 5S looks majestic with the generous metal treatment and the fine body lines. Under the hood it has a 64bit A7 processor which has unmatched computing capability. Apple has also stuffed in an additional M7 co-processor to gather the inputs from all the sensors and tailor the user experience accordingly. Camera quality and the user interface is top notch. We have seen a chunk of consumers complaining about the tiny 4-inch screen but we feel that is one of the best form factor a phone can have.
7. OnePlus One Price-Rs 36,500 (16GB)
OnePlus One was touted as the ultimate Droid for a long time and was eventually unveiled recently. It is powered by a lightning fast 2.5GHz Quad core processor along with a monstrous 3GB RAM. It has the most impressive specs ever seen on an Android phone. OnePlus One looks good with sleek body lines and a very sensitive color treatment. The only qualm about this phone is the non-expandable memory. The best part is it comes with a CyanogenMod 11S that gives you more control over the phone.
OnePlus One is an excellent pick if you are looking for a hyper-performing smartphone with the most powerful chunks of hardware blended in a sleek attractive package. It is not particularly cheap but it is worth the money shelled out.
8. Motorola Moto E Price – Rs.6,999
Motorola has hit a home run once again with its latest offering the Moto E. Hailed as the commoner’s phone and priced for everyone Motorola showed people what they missed till now. Priced at a mere 6.9k it has a 1.2GHz Dual core processor and a 4.3-inch display with a decent 256ppi. It inherits design elements from its elder cousin Moto G and feels equally solid. The camera is mediocre with no flash but still we can digest the fact considering the low price tag.
If you are looking for a low end Android smartphone from a reputed brand without compromising on the build quality then Moto E is the device for you.
9. Micromax Unite 2 Price- Rs.6,666
Micromax Unite 2 is an accomplished budget Android KitKat phone that doesn’t shy away from the competition and instead rubs its shoulders with the mighty Moto E. Display is a tad bigger than the Moto E at 4.7-inch. Unite 2 improvises on the Moto E and has a secondary camera and a LED flash as well. Build quality is good with rubberized back panel. It lacks a Corning Gorilla screen. Unite 2 offers native support for the regional languages.
10. Nokia Lumia 630 Price- Rs 9279
Lumia 630 is the first handset in the Windows phone lineup to support dual sim and comes preloaded with Windows 8.1. Lumia 630 is designed beautifully and comes in a range of solid color options just like any other Lumia.
This is a bold move from Nokia to replace the dated Lumia 520 as the entry level Windows phone. The 512MB RAM will slightly cripple your gaming experience and will keep some apps out of reach. Lumia 630 is also devoid of a secondary camera which is something people do expect at all price points. We are also expecting some more price drops on its way for Lumia 630. If you are not bothered about a LED flash and a secondary camera yet, we want to go for a Windows phone then this is the best bet.
