    With a budget of ₹50000, you can get yourself a premium smartphone with serious hardware and long-term software support. But this price range is flooded with handsets from all major brands, be it OnePlus, Oppo, Samsung, and even Apple. Choosing the right device in this crowded market could be particularly difficult for some. So, here we have listed some of the best smartphones under the price of ₹50,000 in India. You may consider these if you’re looking to get the best value for money.

    iQOO 9T

    iQOO 9T debuted late in 2022, supposedly as the successor to the iQOO 9. However, it has a lot more common with the Pro phone. The smartphone includes everything you’d want at this price. Fast charging, powerful processor, immersive display, you name it. Priced at ₹49,999, the handset features a triple rear camera setup with a 50MP main sensor.

    Unlike the vanilla model, it packs the recent Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The handset gets a 6.78-inch AMOLED display that comes with HDR10+ certification, Full HD+ resolution, a 16MP selfie cam, and a 120Hz refresh rate. Packing a 4,700mAh battery, it supports 120W fast charging. iQOO 9T runs Funtouch OS 12, which may be a letdown for some but overall, it is the best mid-range phone you can buy right now.

    OnePlus 10T

    Sure, the OnePlus 10T wasn’t as exciting as other flagships from the brand but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad phone. It’s a powerful package with a top-of-the-line processor, a bright display, FAST charging, and much more. The alert slider is gone, which is a bummer. The ₹49,999 OnePlus 10T features a 50MP triple rear camera and a 16MP selfie snapper.

    oneplus-10t

    Powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC, the smartphone packs a 4,800mAh battery with support for particularly extreme 150W charging. It gets a 6.7-inch OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. Mind you, there’s no adaptive refresh rate like the Pro model. OnePlus 10T runs Android 12 out of the box and an Android 13 update is also available. The smartphone, however, lacks some flagship features like wireless charging, IP rating, and a telephoto camera.

    Oppo Reno 8 Pro debuted in the Indian market in July 2022 with a unique eye-catching design, featuring a large camera island and flat sides. It’s a well-rounded smartphone with an excellent build quality and solid specs. The major highlight of the device would be its 120Hz 6.7-inch FHD AMOLED panel with HDR10+ certification.

    Under the hood, it is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 8100-max processor, paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB Storage. The SoC is powerful enough to support gaming and multitasking. It has a triple camera unit on the back with 50MP main snapper. There’s a MarisiliconX imaging chip that boosts the camera capabilities. Fueling the handset is a 4,500mAh battery that supports 80W charging. On the software front, the device runs Oppo’s ColorOS 12 based on Android 12. The Android 13 update is out as well.

    iQOO 9

    The iQOO 9 is the cheapest smartphone on our list, but that just means it offers exceptional value.

The panel has pressure-sensitive blocks for quick actions during gaming.

    It draws power from the older but capable Snapdragon 888+ 5G chipset by Qualcomm that should support any game hassle-free. The camera setup on the device is quite interesting. There’s a 48MP primary camera with gimbal stabilization, a 13MP telephoto, and a 13MP ultrawide shooter. For selfies, the device gets a 16MP snapper.
