POCO X4 Pro 5G

Under this price bracket, we can expect to see Chinese handsets dominating the segment, with the POCO X4 Pro 5G being one of them.

The Nord CE 2 Lite is priced at 19,999 INR and is listed on Amazon for its 6GB + 128GB model. Despite being a mid range handset, OnePlus still seeks to deliver a premium experience on their Nord phones too. At this price point, the device offers great value for its price.

Similar to the Xiaomi models, this handset also supports bootloader unlocking for enthusiasts that plan on using custom ROMs.

Samsung Galaxy M33 5G

While Chinese brands do have a strong hold in the segment, Samsung also has a diverse portfolio of mid range handsets from its Galaxy M series. The Galaxy M33 5G arrives with the company’s proprietary Exynos 1280 SoC and is powered by a massive 6,000mAh battery pack that supports 25W fast charging. Samsung has promised two major Android updates and up to four years of security updates. So, its a great option for those that do not upgrade their phones in just a few years.

The front sports a 6.6 inch FHD+ LCD panel that has 120Hz refresh rate, while the rear houses a 50 megapixel quad camera setup. Battery life is definitely a strong suit of this model, with the phone also being one of the more affordable phones on this list.

It packs a 5,000mAh battery pack that supports 18W fast charging. The device sports a 6.58 inch LCD panel that has a 120Hz refresh rate and FHD+ resolution like the other models in this list. Interestingly, it is by far one of the cheapest entries as well with its price starting from 15,499 INR on Amazon for its 4GB + 128GB option.

The 8GB RAM variant goes up to about 17,999 INR, but that is still quite the value for a mid range handset. Other features include, a 50 megapixel triple camera setup on the rear, Android 12 OS, 5 layer liquid cooling for improved thermal management, which helps makes the mobile gaming experience better. Notably, the iQOO Z6 is also a rebranded Vivo T1 that has a similar price tag, so you can also check out the other model as well if you prefer FunTouch OS.

Moto G71 5G

Despite having an unsteady footing over the last couple of years, Motorola has managed to carve its own space in the smartphone market again. Its mid range handset portfolio has seen success in certain regions including India, with the Moto G series still being a popular choice for users looking for a new stock Android experience. Under the hood, the Moto G71 is equipped with a Snapdragon 695 SoC and is powered by a 5,000mAh battery pack that supports 33W fast charging.

On the front, it sports a 6.4 inch display that has a FHD+ AMOLED panel, but unfortunately, it only supports standard 60Hz refresh rate. So, this model isn’t as great for gaming, but it still offers a solid Android experience. Other features include a 50 megapixel triple camera setup, support for 13 5G bands, Dolby Atmos audio, and more. Interestingly, Motorola also has another new offering within this price segment.

The Moto G82 is sort of a successor or refreshed version of the G71 and it is currently available for purchase in the region for a price tag of around 19,999 INR. At the moment, it is priced at 21,499 INR, but deals help bring its price down. Under the hood, the smartphone is practically the same as the Moto G71. However, one major change is the 6.6 inch AMOLED display with an FHD+ resolution and support for a 120Hz refresh rate, which is an improvement over the 60Hz refresh rate from the G71.

With the recent Bluetooth certification for the Samsung Galaxy M33 5G, we may not be too far off from the eventual launch of the Galaxy M33 5G. The Bluetooth certification has moved the product a step further in its evolution from an R&D item to a commercial product. The model specification of the Galaxy M33 5G device that got Bluetooth certified is SM-M336B_DS. The model specification indicates that the device will have a dual-SIM setup.

Although there are several details still not known about the Galaxy M33 5G, we now know that it will support Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity. It is unclear whether it is the same Galaxy M33 5G model that was spotted in Geekbench recently. The Geekbench model number was SM-M336BU, and the device was powered by an Exynos 1200 chipset in addition to 6GB RAM. The Geekbench listing also showed that the model will run on Android 12 out of the box.

There are no words from Samsung yet on a possible release of the Galaxy M33 5G at this time. If indeed the device is on the lineup for the unveiling, then more details will pop out in the coming weeks.

Earlier, Samsung was expected to launch the Galaxy M33 5G in India soon as the phone started getting manufactured locally at the Greater Noida Factory in the region. Now, the tipster Mukul Sharma reveals that the phone’s launch may not be too far for India, and it could be as early as next month.

Mukul said that if things move as planned for the company, then we might see the Galaxy M33 5G by the end of February. Unfortunately, the tipster doesn’t reveal an exact launch date.

Apart from this, the smartphone has already passed a few certification sites, and thus, we know some of its specifications. The Samsung Galaxy M33 5G carries the model number SM-M336BU/DS. As per SafetyKorea, the phone packs a big 6,000mAh battery. On top of this, we expect some sort of fast charging support.

Furthermore, the Geekbench listing revealed that the device is powered by the unannounced Exynos 1200 SoC. It will have 6GB of RAM, which we expect to be the base configuration. It will boot on Android 12 OS out of the box. That being said, the handset should arrive with One UI 4.

Since it will be a superior model of the currently available Galaxy M32 5G, we can expect a high refresh rate AMOLED panel and dual-SIM support. The device may also come with up to 25W fast charging support but do note that Samsung is currently infamous for not providing the maximum supported fast charging adapter in the box. So we may see a 15W fast charging adapter as usual.

Samsung seems to be prepping to launch the Galaxy M33 soon, as the phone had earlier appeared on listings like BIS, SafetyKorea, and Geekbench, and now, a new report sheds light on its production.

As per 91Mobiles, Samsung has officially started the production of the upcoming Galaxy M33 5G in India. The publication cites that the smartphone’s production has begun in Samsung’s Greater Noida factory in the country. It means that the phone could soon debut in the Indian market.

The M33 that has a model number SM-M336BU/DS had previously bagged a few certifications through which some of its key specs were revealed. It is expected to come powered by the unannounced Exynos 1200 SoC. The device will have 6GB of RAM and boot on Android 12 OS out of the box.

The SafetyKorea certification revealed that the device will house a monster 6,000mAh battery. As of now, this is what we have learned, however, considering that it will be succeeding to the Galaxy M32 5G, we can expect a few upgrades.

The phone may come with an AMOLED display with a higher refresh rate. Remember, the Galaxy M32 5G has a 90Hz AMOLED screen. The device is expected to come with dual-SIM support in India and may have 25W fast charging support. Just like the M32 5G, it may as well come with a quad-camera setup.

As of now, there’s no official word about the phone from Samsung, but we expect the company to soon spill some beans on the same.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy M33 5G soon as the pace of its leaks has started increasing. Last time, the smartphone’s battery details were leaked and now, the phone has appeared on the Geekbench portal.

According to Geekbench v5, the Samsung Galaxy M33 5G has a model number SM-M336BU. It has scored 726 points in the single-core department and 1830 points in the multi-core department. These scores are possible due to the Exynos 1200 SoC, under the hood. For those who are unaware, it is a 5G-enabled octa-core chipset. The chipset’s first six cores are clocked at 2.00GHz and the other two cores are clocked at 2.40GHz.

The smartphone has 6GB of RAM and boots on Android 12 out of the box. We expect it to run on Samsung’s One UI on top of it. Other than this, there isn’t anything else to learn from the certification. However, the phone was recently certified by Safety Korea and it revealed that the device will pack a 5,830mAh rated battery.

Rumours are rife that the smartphone will come with a 6.5-inch water-drop display. It will have a Full-HD+ resolution. It is expected to feature a quad-camera system with a 64MP primary lens, an 8MP secondary unit, a 5MP lens, and lastly a 2MP sensor(via – 91Mobiles). It is touted to have a 13M selfie sensor. If these specs are to be believed, the Galaxy M33 5G will be a great contender in the mid-range market.
