    • @salman : Motorola has just launched its flagship device called X Style and according to us it’s the best phone to buy under Rs 30k. If you can find the Samsung A8 under 30000, then you can go for it.

  • Dear,

    Can u please suggest a smartphone under 30,000. I have shortlisted HTC E9, HTC 826W, Iphone 5S, Moto X Play, Moto X Style. OR should I wait some more for Iphone 6 for getting its price to come down to 38000. Or if you want to suggest some other phone.

    Please Reply.

    • @sachin : Among all the phones that you have shortlisted, we like Moto X Style the most. The phone comes in 5.7 inch QHD display, No heating issues, good for gaming, decent camera. Overall a great phone to buy. The only issue would be that it weighs 180 grams and the phone is big for one-handed usage.

  • Hi,the feature that sony experia z2..support..is nice N cool .but some told me that there is many problem with this phone..so could you please suggest me ..the right things about this phone in order to clear my doubt about the controversies so that i would not B disappointed after buying this .
    Kindly reply me.thanking you

    • @Elvis : Sony Xperia Z2 has got some heating issues, after intensive gaming the phone tends to heat up. It’s also an outdated phone, So I suggest you have a look at Samsung Galaxy A8 and Moto X Play Style. Both are within 30000 Rs. They are much better phones then Sony Xperia Z2.

  • Hello,
    I’m looking for a phone that has good battery life, premium feel and display small enough for a single hand use. Would prefer stock android UI.
    Any suggestions?

    • @ Dr Piyu: Moto X Style priced at Rs 29000 is one the best phones available under Rs 30000, however it doesn’t come with finger print sensor. If you can wait for a while we would be testing the latest Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) priced at Rs 29000 with almost all the features. Once we test it, we will let you know about the phone.

  • I am thinking of buying galaxy A8.can you tell any major cons in it or any better alternative for it at same price.pls tell if it hangs like other samsung products?

  • Wanted to buy an iPhone already using Samsung note 3 should I go for the iOS or should I continue with Android wanted to upgrade my phone was a bit confused pls do reply

    • @ Krishan : If you can slightly increase your budget by 5000, you can go for Nexus 6P (32GB), It’s one of the best android phones that we have used, latest Android update, best camera, fast processor and good gaming experience without any heating issue. Check here : Nexus 6P

  • Best smart phone to buy under 40 k..having 4k recording ,good cameras,figure print sensor and water and dust rest…plss suggest me

    • I think mi 5 pro is best for you with 4k recording and of course display too fast fingure print sensor but it is not water and dust proof I thing that should not be a big issue and if you want water and dust proof then you should look for s5 or s5 active (without fingure print scanner)

  • Can you please suggest me a phone b/w 30-35000 having good camera(both primary and secondary) ,good storage(64gb internal or an expandable one),good performance and with good display having a good battery life too

    • @ Jef: Nexus 6P priced at Rs 36000 is an excellent with good battery life and camera, but Nexus devices do not come with expandable storage, Hence we recommend you to buy the 64GB version priced at Rs 40000. Check here : Nexus 6P

  • I own samsung galaxy s2 . Now want to buy a smartphone with large display at least 3gb RAM , good battery life and better low light camera within a budget of Rs. 30000 or Rs 35000. Can u suggest any phone

    • @ Pradeep Singh: Samsung Galaxy S6 is an outdated phone. We wouldn’t recommend you to buy that. You can buy Xiaomi Mi 5 with fingerprint sensor,large screen, good camera and 32GB internal storage. Check here : Xiaomi Mi5

      • @ Aaryan : Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is an outdated phone instead we suggest you go for Samsung Galaxy S7. Are you planning to buy only Samsung Phones? If not you can have a look at Oneplus 3

        • Thanks for replying..
          My parents are not allowing me to buy any china company..so i only have samsung..
          galaxy s7 is too expensive…my budget can be maximum upto 35k..not ever more than that…note 4 I think is outdated phone but its features are awesome… Well A7 2016 is also good but when i compare it to note 4…than note 4 is the winner…
          Well can u suggest something under 35k and only samsung..
          thanks sir..

    • @ Aaryan: Since your budget is 30K , why don’t you go fro Oneplus 3 priced at Rs 28000. We have been using it as primary phone and it is one of the best phones available in the market. Great performance with 6GB RAM, Good camera and the accessories are easily available as well. Do check out our review and let us know if you have any doubts.

    • @ Nisheet: Specs wise both the phones are good. Oneplus 3 as of now is great phone with 6GB RAM and 64GB internal storage. However just wait for Samsung Galaxy C7 it will be available in August.

  • Sir, balance is not my problem. I can buy a 20k phone or a 30k phone, but what I expect is real value for money. I have 2 options in my mind. One is Lenovo Vibe X3 at 20k. I think it is unbeatable at its price. The second one is Samsung C7 at around 27k which is not released. Its specs are hi-fi. Are both my choices wrong? Which is the better one between them? Please suggest any other if you like. Can I have your email for further smartphone related queries?

  • Hi Buying Tips,

    I need a backup phone for work. Primary uses are calls, texting, basic Internet and emails. My budget is ₹25k. I already own an iPhone 6s which I use for personal use.

    I was looking at the HTC M9+, HTC One X9 and Samsung A5 (2016). I read about the Sony Xperia Z3+ and its heating issues. I am not interested in the Oneplus range as I don’t live in the cities so after sales would be a problem. Please help!!!

  • I heard that oneplus 3 heats up when left in the pocket unused as the finger print scanners scans every time it comes in contact with something.
    Can this be fixed?
    Will this be a serious problem?

  • Hi guys want some suggestions on phones under 30000rs..found a5 having some lag and so other Samsung phone within the range very interested in one plus3 but is it too big??..since m a small guy was using xperia zr which was comfortable to use with one hand but all phones are too big or have no specs at all…could you please help would b really greatfull

    • @ Aditya: It isn’t too big or heavy. It fits perfectly for medium sized person. Oneplus 3 is one of the best phones under RS 30000. We agree it is a bit difficult to tyoe in one hand but other than that the phone is great.

  • @buying tips, you did not advise anything about Lenovo VIVE X3! Please tell me which is better between VIVE X3 and ASUS Zenfone 3? Similarly at around Rs 30000, which is better between Samsung Galaxy C7 and ASUS Zenfone 3 Deluxe?

    • @ Abhishek: Both the phones run on Adreno 510 GPU, this chipset has some issues with heavy gaming. The phone does lag while playing N.O.V.A 3 and Asphalt 8. However you can have a look at Mot g4 plus it does have some heating issues but can play any kinda game without any lag.

  • Hi Buying Tips Team,

    Looking for your Expert Advice.

    I am lkng for a phone between 25 k to 30k. I am confused between :
    1. Galaxy A7 (2016)
    2. Oppo F1 Plus
    3. One plus Three
    4. Or You May Recommend Anyother.

    Regarding One plus Three, i am also concerned of after sale service i.e. Service Centre Availability.

    • @Hari Naitham: You can go for Nexus 6P, it comes with Quad HD screen and audio is decent. It costs around Rs 37000. But we would still recommend you to buy Oneplus 3 as it comes with Amoled display and has also got the best speakers.

      • yeah thankyou! i would love to buy OP3 when it comes to price value.. and is there any RAM or BATTERY life issue?? because i’m a heavy user. how many hours i can use it continuously with 3G connectivity..or heavy gaming.

  • I only need to know buying oneplus 3 is trustwoethy as it is Chinese and there’s no service centre easily can get it..i dont have an issue with non removable battry and non expendable as well… But if i am investing 27999rs so it is genuine and trustworthy??? And what is biggest cons of it??? I would like to thankful if i will get trustwortgy reply as well…soon

    • @ Wendy : Have been using Oneplus 3 as my secondary phone and to be honest it is one of the best phones under Rs 30000. The only negative would be it heats up a bit after continuos use and the battery drains a little faster than other phones but with dash charger I don’t think that sgould be a n issue as it charges within 1 hour.

    • I want a business class device which has a brand value and can be trusted for 3 years and is vivid in display and doesn’t cause problems..Gaming is not what i need..
      1)Samsung a7 2016 is now 27000inr
      2)nexus 5x
      3)one plus 3
      4) moto x style
      Which one do you recommend ??@buyingtips

  • I am confused can you please help me out.. HTCx9, sony XA nexus 5X..i am not interested in chinese brands pls suggest which phone to buy..

  • Hi, I’m confused between Samsung a7 2016 and one plus3. Don’t know which to buy. A7 looks good and has brand value whereas spec wise one plus 3 is unmatched. Please tell me which is a better option.
    Ps:my only concern about op3 is that it’s Chinese. Hence will problems pop up in the future?

  • Guys plz suggest me whether I shouldn’t go with onePlus3 or Zenfone3. I am a photogenic and am damn sure zenfone3 camera is awesome at the same time onePlus3 is eye-catching. Am really very confused between these devices. Pls suggest me.

  • Hi..

    I am looking for a mobile.. My options are Mi 5 & One plus 3. Please suggest which phone would be better,
    Both company doesn’t have service center in uttarakhand but Mi is providing pick up service in Uttarakhand while one plus doesn’t.

    Please advise.

    Thanks

    • @ Guru : Galaxy S6 Edge and iPhone 6 are outdated phones, would rather suggest you go for the latest version. If the budget is your concern then we would recommend you go for OnePlus 3

  • is it good idea to buy htc u play?????????
    as it is having low battery capacity
    can u suggest me a good phone with better battery capacity and good camera quality in around 30k
