List of Best Smartphones in each Price/Budget Category

Tuesday, May 7, 2013

/ by Aman Banka
Smartphones are getting more and more funky, Stylish, Expensive and are coming with awesome features which can make our lifestyle easy. Recently, Samsung introduced many new features which are Life Companion. The Smart Pause, Smart Scroll, Air Gesture and rest all are soooo awesome that actually make Galaxy S4 Life Companion.

Best Smartphones


But, the question comes that, can't a low-level or mid-level Smartphone get those features or not actually those features but some innovative or useful feature?
Sadly but the Answer is Yes, all these premium features can't be added in a smartphone worth Rs. 10,000 or Rs. 15,000 or say Rs. 25,000. We have to buy a smartphone worth Rs. 30,000 to enjoy any premium feature.

Leave the feature, talk about Hardware specs. How can we compare Galaxy S4 with Galaxy S? Samsung has packed Galaxy S4 with the best hardware whereas Galaxy S is packed with not so great specs, the reason behind this is the time. During the launch of Galaxy S, it was the best smartphone because it was having best hardware but now those hardware are very low for a smartphone.

Still there are many smartphones which are having awesome features and great hardware included in them, also they cost low. So, we have decided to include all those Smartphones who are in different budget category and are best in there specific price range.

Below you can check all the smartphone which are best in their specific price category, you can also view there specs & features with their current Online Price, which are similar to market price. After going through all the phones you can surely decide to select the best smartphone which comes in your budget.

NOTE: We have included only, HTC, LG, SONY, SAMSUNG & MICROMAX Smartphones in this list. We have selected these devices on their Look, Hardware, Features and Rating.
