From them, my favorite is the OnePlus 4G smartphone because it is a OnePlus device and it has 10GB RAM.

►6.41-Inch OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition Smartphone

The OnePlus smartphone is one of the best flagship smartphones in the Indian market. My heavy-duty laptop has 8GB RAM, but this OnePlus 4G smartphone features 10GB RAM. So, it is an incredible gadget, totally worth it at its current market price. Besides this, there is only one smartphone with 10GB or more than 10GB RAM. That is Xiaomi Mi 9, which will have 12GB RAM.

OnePlus 6T ME impresses with its outstanding performance, cameras, big screen, lasting battery, multimedia features, and latest connectivity options.

While the front side of this OnePlus smartphone is bezel-less with a water-drop notch, the back has a glass finish. However, neither it is a lightweight smartphone, nor it is that slim. Also, it is not fully waterproof.

With apps and a big touchscreen, smartphones have become more useful than a computer systems. OnePlus 6T sports a 6.41-inch Optic AMOLED display with a screen resolution of 1080×2340 Pixels. The Optic AMOLED is a refined version of the Super AMOLED display. Invented by OnePlus, optic AMOLED is as exceptional as Super AMOLED in terms of color clarity and contrast, and visibility retention in sunlight, but it will not drain the battery that quickly.

No doubt about it that OnePlus 6T is an excellent 4G smartphone in the 40000 to 50000 Rupees range. At the current market price, and with average 4.5-Point ranting on Amazon India, OnePlus 6T is the best smartphone under 45000 Rupees in the Indian market.

► 6.40-Inch Honor View20 4G Smartphone

Huawei is one of the best brands if you need a value-for-money smartphone. Currently, a top-selling 4G smartphone from 40000 to 45000 Rupees price range comes from this brand. The Honor View20 is truly a next-generation smartphone. It can gain 50% battery in 30 minutes. That is incredible! Its connectivity options include NFC and USB Type-C, withal.

This Honor smartphone has a more powerful CPU than my laptop. Its CPU consists of 8GB RAM, an Octa-Core processor (triple chipset), and Mali GPU. Considering its CPU power, the question does not arise, whether it can play game A or B. It will play all Android games in the best graphics setting.

Instead of buying a digital camera, you should consider Honor View 20. It is a professional camera smartphone. Its primary camera features a 48MP CMOS sensor with LED Flash. You can capture 4K footage with the camera. Its selfie or front-facing camera features a 25MP sensor and is capable of recording full HD videos.

► 6.59-Inch Vivo NEX 4G Smartphone

This year, Vivo has flung itself into the bezel-less smartphone market in full force. The all-new Vivo NEX is perhaps the best smartphone with 8GB RAM in India. This device has beaten all the odds for a smartphone in its category. The NEX outshines some longstanding mobile brands in its price margin including Huawei’s Honor 10 and the OnePlus 6. Though co-owned by the same manufacturer, Vivo NEX beats Oppo’s Find X in almost every aspect.

However, most people would still opt for the Oppo Find X over this phone owing to the Find X’s attractive bezel-less design. Last month, Vivo announced the NEX as its flagship smartphone in India. Vivo NEX was designed to compete with other smartphones under 45000 Rupees in the country. This announcement kind of drew our attention. We wanted to know what’s underneath the hood of this high-end smartphone. Here is what we garnered from our research:

Superb Rear Camera: To start with, the Vivo NEX has a 12MP dual pixel + 5MP rear camera, integrated with a Sony IMX363 sensor. This Sony-made sensor supports up to 1.4μm super large pixels and guarantees outstanding photos regardless of the environment. We liked that Vivo leveraged the power of AI technology in this smartphone’s camera.

Air Intelligence Scene Recognition: In detail, the camera uses AI scene recognition doubled up with AI HDR. AI scene recognition helps the phone to read the photo environment and adjusts the filters appropriately. On the other hand, AI HDR gives the photos a more extensive dynamic range and balances the exposure expertly. For a smartphone with a Sony camera sensor and AI integration, you can expect nothing short of perfection in the Vivo NEX’s camera.

Full view Display and Elevating Front Camera: The designers of this smartphone also wanted to maximize screen space. The bezel-less design together with the In-Display Fingerprint Sensor explains this. Nevertheless, what startled us was how far Vivo was willing to push this screen space maximizing issue. Just like in the Vivo Apex, the NEX has an elevating front camera that protrudes once you activate the front selfie camera.

Probably this is the first time we are seeing this kind of design in premium high-end smartphones. This exciting feature alone has made the Vivo NEX the top VIVO smartphone in India. Generally, the front camera will protrude in just 1 second at most. Moreover, the Fingerprint sensor (FPS) is assimilated within the phone's display. Therefore you won’t see it unless you touch the screen.

Powerful Core and ample storage: Notably, this phone is powered by a 2.8-GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 Octa-core processor. Additionally, the phone has 8GB worth of RAM, which is enough for seamless gaming. You won’t be having any trouble using the Vivo NEX. This is because it runs on Android Oreo, which is one of the most user-friendly Operating systems in the market today. The internal storage on this phone is 128GB.

Other Features of Vivo NEX: Also, keep in mind that this phone is a dual SIM 4G phone and it uses two Nano-sized SIM cards. In addition, the NEX uses a 4000-mAH lithium-ion battery. We also wouldn’t fail to mention that the Super AMOLED Display has a resolution of 2316×1080 Pixels. You won’t see any speaker holes on this device because the same display has sound-casting capabilities. Isn’t it remarkable that your screen can also act as a speaker?
