Owning a smartphone today has become a simple way of making a statement that you are an updated, modern, and refined fella.

The good thing is that smartphones have evolved to become the next generation of minuscule computers. With one of these gadgets, you can do nearly everything you would do on a laptop.

The stroke of luck, however, is not even in the potentialities that smartphones have, but in how cheap these devices have become. Some seven or so years ago, having a smartphone seemed like a far-fetched dream in India. However, today you can own an excellent performing smartphone for just 10000 Rupees.

Which is the best smartphone below 10000 Rupees? In this piece, we have handpicked the best-selling smartphones from 9000 to 10000 Rupees range. The suggested smartphones are from the top smartphone brands in India market.

☼ 6.5-Inch Samsung Galaxy A03 Core 4G Smartphone

Why should you buy the Galaxy A03 Core smartphone despite having comparatively mediocre specifications considering the current market trend? Because it is a Samsung smartphone. Even after two years of continuous usages of the phone, it will remain almost as smooth as it was on day one. That is a guarantee from me because I am a Samsung smartphone user.

Some of the exciting features of this latest Samsung 4G smartphone are a 5000-mAh battery, Octa-Core processor, 6.5-inch screen, and excellent build quality. No unwanted apps, bloatware, and no Google phone dial are a bonus. This phone has a custom UI, which is made by Samsung. That does not announce to the call receiver on another side that the call is being recorded.

Besides, capture clear photos of your favorite moments with the 8MP main camera and use the 5MP front Camera with beautification mode for a HD selfie. Mega Pixel number is not the sole indicator of camera quality. And, never fall for high MP cameras that Chinese brand provides in their smartphones.

► 6.26-Inch Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 4G Smartphone

The newest smartphones in 8000 to 10000 Rupees price range are the Zenfone Max M2 with 4000-mAh battery and Zenfone Max Pro M2 with 5000-mAh battery. The noticeable difference between these two Asus smartphones is in their battery capacity and front camera.

This website has already covered the 4000-mAh variant in this article. Since both the options have the same build, design, and performance, I am not going to discuss the features again and how reliable is the 5000-mAh variant.

Vivo Y91 is the latest smartphone in 9000 to 10000 Rupees price segment. This phone has only 4030-mAh battery, 8MP front camera, and only 2GB RAM. Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2, therefore, with 3GB RAM, 13MP front camera and 5000-mAh battery is a far superior option among the recently launched 20 best smartphones under 10000 Rupees. It is a value for money smartphone.

And yet, you have to pay only 9998 Rupees for it as per its current market price.

Redmi Note 8 is an excellent smartphone, especially for those who often change their smartphones in 6 to 18 months. Xiaomi smartphones generally offer exceptional performance, but they don’t last many years as a 100% functional device.

The same is true for Xiaomi Note 8 also. No doubt about it that It is the best camera smartphone and gaming smartphone in 10000 Rupees range at present. The build quality of this 4G phone, though, fails to impress. Therefore, I wouldn’t recommend it if you are looking for a 4G smartphone to use more than 2-Years.

Therefore, its performance is outstanding; no heating issue and remains very smooth even during a long gaming session.

► 5.2-Inch Moto G5 Plus Smartphone with Turbo Charging

When it is about design, pricing, performance, and battery life, the Moto G5 Plus ticks all the right boxes. At this price tag, this is the single smartphone that provides a pure Android operating system. Driven by 2GHz Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, Motorola Moto G5 Plus sports 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. This can further be extended up to 128GB by means of a micro SD card. Now, coming to its camera, the smartphone wraps a 12-megapixel rear camera together with a 5-megapixel front camera for selfies and casual shots. Turbo Power charging is another tremendous feature. Nonetheless, there are certain matters, for instance, the heating problem while GPS is active for a prolonged time.

Verdict: Moto’s smooth and light custom touches, Android Nougat with Google Assistant, most elegant design and loads of outstanding features makes the Moto G5 Plus a lot more than your standard smartphone. For those who are on a firm budget, but don’t want to lose excellent performance just to save some pennies, this phone is the best buy. The exceptional body, capable specs, and the budget-friendly price will suit deal-seekers and smartphone fanatics in the same way.

► 5.99-Inch Xiaomi Redmi Y2 4G Smartphone

The 10000 rs top smartphone comes in a premium plastic shell yet looks robust and appealing due to glossy finish all across. At 8.1-mm thickness, it is slim. However, it is a massive smartphone despite not having a high capacity battery. It weighs 170 grams. Further, the dual SIM smartphone supports Indian 4G LTE network that too in dual standby mode.

Massive 5.99-Inch Screen: The Xiaomi Y2 smartphone comes with a vivid, bright screen measured in 5.99-inch. That has an IPS LCD panel whose resolution is HD+ and aspect ratio 18:9. The on-screen pixel density of 269-PPI is perfect. The display is more realistic and adequate for a midrange heavy-duty smartphone.

Human eye could not recognize pixel depth above 294 PPI. Therefore, having a high pixel density in a display makes no sense, in fact, reduces battery backup.

The super sharp 5.99-inch IPS screen lets you enjoy HD videos, playing action games, and reading web contents. Everything looks crisp and clear on it.

64-bit Snapdragon Processor: The best Xiaomi smartphone under 10000 Rupees handles multitasking and hard gaming really well thanks to the highly trusted Snapdragon 625 chipset in the CPU architecture. Hundreds of mid-range smartphone for reliable performance have trusted the Snapdragon processor.

Perfect Smartphone for Selfie: Even most smartphone experts agree to the fact that Xiaomi Redmi Y2 is the top camera smartphone below 10000 rupees. The primary shooter features dual sensor as well as dual LED flash. Thus, this phone powers you to capture production quality snap and footage not only in daylight but also at night.

Are you in search of a perfect Selfie camera smartphone? Consider Redmi Y2 as it features 16MP rated sensor on the front side, as well as AI Beautification 4.0 program. The Artificial Intelligence program filters and processes your captured Selfie in real time and generates a perfect Selfie for instant sharing with friends and family members.

Mediocre Battery: A lean 3080-mAh battery powers this Xiaomi smartphone. Having seen 4000-mAh battery on earlier smartphone models of Xiaomi, battery backup of Redmi Y2 is disappointing. On medium to heavy usages, it would provide a daylong backup. It also has a (semi)fast charging feature. Although what is interesting is that battery, charging speed is outstanding. In less two hours, battery covers 100% charging.

Specs: Because of poor optimization of installed MI user interface, you may experience overheating issue with Redmi Y2 smartphone. Therefore, I would not say that it is the most reliable smartphone from the house of Xiaomi. Considering everything, still, Xiaomi Redmi Y2 is a real value for money, a perfect smartphone under 10000 Rupees.

If you are more interested in the camera features of a smartphone than its performance, here is the best option for you. Xiaomi Redmi Y2 smartphone has the necessary wherewithal to capture cute Selfie and production quality footage in daylight as well as in no light.

However, you should not consider it if you aim to use it for playing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG).
