Whether you need a new phone because your old one has crashed or you are simply a phone addict who is looking to upgrade your device, here are some factors you shouldn’t miss while buying a new smartphone
Budget
Your budget is probably the all encompassing factor which decides the phone you pick. Today a smartphone starts from Rs 5000 and can go all the way upto Rs 2 Lakh so you want to be sure how much you are really willing to put aside for the purchase. These days you can find the best phones under 15000 and will completely fulfil your requirement. With easy loan financing options available with Bajaj Finserv, you should no longer be constrained by budget while picking up a premium flagship smartphone.
Display size
Like most people, you will probably be spending hours every day staring at the phone’s screen. And hence you should pick the size and resolution of your display depending on your usage.
A minimum 6 inch screen is the preferred norm for movies and gaming however 5 inch screen are compact and easier to handle. The Realme 7i is an example of a phone in the under 15000 segment with a large 6.5 inch ultra smooth HD display. Compared to the normal 60 Hz display, the 90 Hz display in this device gives 50% increase in the number of images displayed per second to ensure an immersive viewing experience.
Storage
Many people try to save money by purchasing cheaper smartphones with little storage space which becomes a hindrance in the long run. Choose a phone that offers you at least 64GB storage if you will be downloading movies and music. Remember you won’t get as much storage as stated in the specification because part of the storage will be consumed by pre-installed apps.
The Realme Narzo 20 is quite a performer in the under 15000 segment since it comes with an array of impressive hardware specs like a 4 GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage so that you can carry your world around with you.
Battery Life
One of the biggest complaints from smartphone owners is phones which are perpetually ‘dead’. If you count yourself as one of these phone owners, its time you consider purchasing a phone fitted with a minimum 5000 maH battery with fast charging capabilities.
The Realme C25 is a recently launched budget smartphone which comes with a massive 6000 maH battery with 18 W quick charge to ensure you are always powered.
Camera
If capturing photos with family and friends is your passion, you need a phone that’s fitted with a good quality camera. Today budget phones also come with enhanced camera capabilities for shooting in low light and shake-free filming.
The camera is always the crowning glory of Realme phones and the recently launched Realme 8 in the under 15000 segment is one such example. It comes with a 64 MP AI Quad Camera and prominent features like Starry Mode, Tilt-shift, Neon Portrait, Dynamic Bokeh, AI Colour Portrait, Super Nightscape, Panoramic View, Expert, Timelapse, HDR, Ultra Wide, Ultra Macro, AI scene recognition, AI Beauty, Chroma Boost, Bokeh Effect Control for a great photography experience.
Smartphone processor
Performance of your smartphone hugely depends on the processor. Similarly, the performance of the processor depends on factors like OS, user interface, bloatware and others.
The Realme 7 comes with a 6GB RAM and MediaTek octa-core Helio G95 which is a powerful and preferred gaming processor since it offers several upgrades such as MediaTek Hyper Engine game technology, multi camera support, improved connectivity, and AI super resolution support.
RAM
One of the key differentiators in smartphones is RAM since it is a very important hardware component that powers phones and helps your smartphone work fast and enhances switching between apps. The more the RAM, the faster the performance. If you are an avid smartphone user with a craze for mobile gaming, getting your hands on an efficient 8GB RAM mobile would be a smart choice to optimize on the overall phone performance
To conclude there are a number of factors to be considered while buying a new phone. However some factors such as battery life and display will definitely outweigh others factors like camera for that matter. And India’s fastest growing smartphone brand Realme understood the Indian market well and what truly mattered most to the growing young population which was largely under-served. In a short span of time, they released phones predominantly in the under 15000 price segment which was able to satiate the hunger for cool, feature-rich yet affordable smartphones.
