Since last year, we have been seeing the budget segment, i.e., the sub-₹10,000 segment, filled with smartphones which offer great features at great price without compromising on the performance. We have also seen smartphones in this category which are coming with fingerprint scanner and 3 GB of RAM.
While you do get a good phone under ₹10,000 these days, if you are someone who can spend some more to get something better, you can check out the phones in the sub-₹20,000 segment. Some of them also come with dual camera setup, a feature which is mostly found on the flagship smartphones. If you are not sure which phone to go for under ₹20,000 , we have compiled a list for you which would help you make your decision.
