91mobiles85/100May 2025
Among the strongest phones below Rs 40,000, led by raw speed with good battery, fast charging and solid cameras; bloatware and few colours hold it back.
-
Smartprix82/100May 2025
A top pick for gaming under Rs 35,000; buy the 256 GB model for faster UFS 4.1 storage and accept a plasticky build and ordinary cameras.
-
Digit76/100Jun 2025
Performance-first all-rounder; the cheaper Neo 10R comes close, so the extra money mainly buys a better screen, faster charging and a newer chip.
-
Good-value performer with a long-lasting battery; the base model should have had 256 GB.
-
Excellent value gaming phone with outstanding battery life; the main camera is fine but the setup lacks range.
