5 Best Mobile Phones under Rs 8,000 in India (March 2023)

Not everyone wants to spend 20k or 50k on smartphones, there are lots of people who just want a smartphone for calling or buying a new smartphone for the first time. So if you’re one of them or just want a gift smartphone then it’s better to buy a budget smartphone.

In short, start with a budget smartphone and then move to a premium. Still, if you want to buy a 10k or 20k, or 30k smartphone then just go for it but if you want the best affordable smartphone under Rs 8,000 then you’re in the right place, so let’s see some of the best ones for you…

POCO C3

Specifications

6.43 inches HD+ LCD Display MediaTek Helio G35 SoC Android 11 based on MIUI 13 13MP+2MP+2MP Rear Cameras, 5MP Front Cameras, 5,000mAh battery (10W),

The MediaTek Helio G35 is not a powerful processor but it’s a decent processor for day-to-day usage. You won’t face any kind of problems while watching movies or even using social media.

It also has a decent camera setup too, also don’t expect too much from the camera department as the phone is available at Rs 6,999.

The 5000 mAh battery will last all day long and it supports 10W charging.

Overall, if you want a stable smartphone with no lags then POCO C3 is the best smartphone you can buy for under Rs 8,000 in India. It has all the elements that users are looking for in an affordable smartphone.

Micromax IN 1B

Specifications

6.50 inches HD+ LCD Display MediaTek Helio G35 SoC Android 11 13MP+2MP Rear Cameras, 8MP Front Cameras, 5,000mAh battery (10W),

I was so excited about Micromax’s comeback but they blew up big time.

The Micromax IN 1B has the best specification in the 6k price range, the phone has a type-C port, a 5,000 mAh battery, stock UI with an Ads great processor but when it comes to user experience, the didn’t have the time to optimize the UI.

The phone does have Stock UI but it feels un-polish, Micromax needs to work on software, and once they do that this phone will be the best smartphone at a 7k price tag.

Just because of the un-polished UI, the cameras are also not that great, the phone does have a good sensor but it’s not optimized and that’s the reason, the images are not as good as the sensors.

RealMe C11

Specifications

6.50 inches HD+ LCD Display MediaTek Helio G35 SoC Android 11 – RealMe UI 13MP+2MP Rear Cameras, 5MP Front Cameras, 5,000mAh battery

For the Rs 6999 price tag, you’re getting a balanced affordable smartphone. Again, MediaTek Helio G35 is not a powerful SoC but it won’t give any kind of problem find a day to day usage.

Also, RealMe UI is far better Android-Skin compared to MIUI, so do consider this device over Redmi’s.

By the way, I don’t have to talk much about the cameras as it’s an affordable smartphone.

Redmi 9i Sport

Specifications

6.53 inches HD+ LCD Display MediaTek Helio G25 SoC Android 11 – RealMe UI 13MP Rear Camera, 5MP Front Cameras, 5,000mAh battery

If your budget is Rs 8000 and wanted to buy only a Redmi phone then do consider the Redmi 9i Sport otherwise ignore it as its a bit pricey compared to RealMe C11 and even POCO C3

There is nothing more I can say, still, if you have questions then do drop a comment.

Redmi A1

Specifications

6.52-inches HD+ LCD Display MediaTek Helio A25 SoC Android 12 Go 8MP + 2MP Rear Camera, 5MP Front Cameras, 5,000mAh battery (10W)

For Redmi A1, it’s a YES or NO answer…

If your budget is Rs 6000 and if you can’t go above that price range then just go with Redmi A1 otherwise do choose from RealMe C11 or POCO C3.

By the way, this is an Android Go smartphone, so you won’t get MIUI, it’s stock Android.

Conclusion

Hands down, the RealMe C11 is a better option to consider because it runs on RealMe UI which is more polished and faster compared to MIUI.

POCO C3 also has the same specs as RealMe C11, so if you want MIUI then do consider POCO C3 over RealMe C11.
