  • Tecno Camon 20 Pro 5G

    The Tecno Camon 20 Pro 5G launched in India in May 2023 at Rs 19,999 for 8 GB plus 128 GB. Tecno, better known for budget phones, used it to show it could compete on camera and performance in the mid-range, taking on the Redmi Note 12 Pro and Realme 10 Pro+ with a combination of strong specifications and a lower price.

    Its 6.67-inch AMOLED runs at 120Hz with full HD resolution. The MediaTek Dimensity 8050 is the real surprise, a near-flagship chip that is far quicker than the Dimensity 1080 in the Redmi Note 12 Pro and handles demanding games comfortably. HiOS 13 on Android 13 is busy and includes preinstalled apps, which detracts from an otherwise strong package.

    The 64 MP RGBW main camera with OIS captures more light than conventional sensors and produces good low-light shots, but there is no ultrawide, only a 2 MP depth sensor. The 32 MP selfie camera is solid. A 5000 mAh battery with 33W charging delivers dependable endurance. It offered unusual performance for the money, held back mainly by software polish.

  • Tecno Camon 30 5G

    Tecno launched the Camon 30 5G in India in May 2024 at Rs 22,999 for 8 GB plus 256 GB. It continued the Camon series' focus on cameras and design, with a textured back in white or dark finishes and a large camera island, aimed at buyers comparing it with the Nothing Phone (2a) and Realme 12 Pro.

    The 6.78-inch AMOLED refreshes at 120Hz and is sharp and bright. The MediaTek Dimensity 7020 is efficient but modest, enough for social apps and casual games, though slower than the Dimensity 8050 that powered the cheaper Camon 20 Pro. HiOS 14 on Android 14 is feature-packed but still carries a fair amount of preinstalled software.

    A 50 MP Sony IMX890 main camera with OIS produces natural, detailed daylight photos and capable night shots, while the 50 MP front camera with autofocus is well suited to selfies and video calls. The 5000 mAh battery charges at 70W, among the fastest in its segment. Against the Nothing Phone (2a) it offers faster charging and more storage but less polished software.

  • Tecno Pova 6 Pro 5G

    The Tecno Pova 6 Pro 5G launched in India in March 2024 at Rs 19,999 for 8 GB plus 256 GB. The Pova series targets young, gaming-inclined buyers, and this model continued that theme with an angular design and Arc Interface LED strips on the back that light up for notifications, calls and charging, Tecno's take on Nothing's Glyph lights.

    The 6.78-inch AMOLED runs at 120Hz and has thin bezels. Performance comes from the MediaTek Dimensity 6080, a modest chip that handles daily tasks and lighter games but trails the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 in the Redmi Note 13 Pro. HiOS 14 on Android 14 offers plenty of features, including a gaming mode, but comes with preinstalled apps.

    The headline is endurance: a 6000 mAh battery with 70W charging, a combination that was rare under Rs 20,000. The 108 MP main camera is detailed in daylight, while the 32 MP selfie camera is decent. Dolby Atmos stereo speakers add to the media experience. It suits heavy users who prize battery life and charging speed over raw performance.

  • Tecno Phantom V Flip

    The Tecno Phantom V Flip launched in India in September 2023 at Rs 49,999 for 8 GB plus 256 GB, making it one of the cheapest flip foldables in the country. It competed with the Motorola Razr 40 and gave buyers a way into the clamshell form factor without approaching the price of the Galaxy Z Flip 5.

    The 6.9-inch foldable AMOLED runs at 120Hz, while the outer display is a small 1.32-inch circular AMOLED inside the camera ring, useful for notifications, time and a selfie viewfinder but not for apps. The MediaTek Dimensity 8050 offers strong performance for the price, ahead of the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 in the Razr 40. The hinge supports free-stop angles for hands-free use.

    A 64 MP main camera and 13 MP ultrawide sit on the back, with a 32 MP autofocus selfie camera inside. Results are decent in good light. The 4000 mAh battery lasts a day for moderate users, with 45W charging. Its cover screen is more limited than the Razr 40's, but it undercuts that phone on price while offering a faster chip.

  • Honor 90

    The Honor 90 marked the brand's return to India in September 2023, launched at Rs 37,999 for 8 GB plus 256 GB through a new partnership with HTech. It arrived as a stylish, slim mid-ranger competing with the OnePlus Nord 3 and Samsung Galaxy A54, and its sales pitch focused on the display and a headline 200 MP camera.

    The 6.7-inch quad-curved AMOLED has a sharp 1.5K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate and very high peak brightness, along with high-frequency PWM dimming that Honor promoted as easier on the eyes. The Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 Accelerated Edition is adequate for daily use but slower than the Dimensity 9000 in the Nord 3. MagicOS 7.1 on Android 13 is feature-rich but heavier than OxygenOS.

    The 200 MP main camera captures plenty of detail in good light, joined by a 12 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP depth sensor, while the 50 MP selfie camera is excellent. The 5000 mAh battery with 66W charging lasts comfortably through a day. Its display and selfie camera stand out, but the price felt high against the faster Nord 3.

  • Nothing Phone (3a) Pro

    Nothing launched the Phone (3a) Pro in India in March 2025 at Rs 29,999 for 8 GB plus 128 GB, alongside the Phone (3a). It shares most of its hardware with its sibling but adds a 3x periscope telephoto inside a large circular camera module with a metal ring, giving it a very different look from the regular (3a).

    Display and performance match the cheaper model: a 6.77-inch 120Hz AMOLED and the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, which handles daily use and moderate gaming well. Nothing OS 3.1 on Android 15 brings the Essential Key and Essential Space, with a promise of three years of OS updates and six years of security patches.

    The camera system is the reason to choose it: a 50 MP main with OIS, a 50 MP 3x periscope with OIS and an 8 MP ultrawide, plus a 50 MP selfie camera. The periscope makes it one of the cheapest phones with genuine 3x optical zoom and strong 6x results. The 5000 mAh battery and 50W charging carry over. It undercuts the Motorola Edge 60 Pro but lacks its wireless charging.

  • CMF Phone 1

    The CMF Phone 1 launched in India in July 2024 at Rs 15,999 for 6 GB plus 128 GB, as the first phone from Nothing's budget sub-brand. Its most unusual feature is a back panel held on by visible screws, which can be swapped for different colours and textures, and a corner dial that accepts accessories such as a lanyard, a stand and a card wallet.

    The 6.67-inch AMOLED runs at 120Hz and is bright and vivid for the price. The MediaTek Dimensity 7300 is a strong budget chip, efficient and quick enough for most games at medium settings, and noticeably faster than the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 in the Redmi 13 5G. Nothing OS 2.6 on Android 14 is clean, with no ads and few preinstalled apps, and storage is expandable by microSD.

    The 50 MP Sony main camera with a depth sensor produces good daylight photos, though there is no ultrawide. The 5000 mAh battery comfortably lasts two days for light users, with 33W charging. Against the Moto G64 and Realme Narzo 70 Pro it offers a better display, more personality and cleaner software, at the cost of a less versatile camera.

  • CMF Phone 2 Pro

    Nothing launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro in India in April 2025 at Rs 18,999 for 8 GB plus 128 GB. It keeps the modular spirit of the CMF Phone 1, with interchangeable lenses and accessories attached through a screw on the back, but is noticeably slimmer and lighter, and moves to a triple camera setup that budget rivals rarely match.

    The 6.77-inch AMOLED runs at 120Hz and reaches high brightness outdoors. The Dimensity 7300 Pro is a minor refresh of the chip in the Phone 1, so performance is similar: smooth in daily use and capable in popular games. Nothing OS 3.2 on Android 15 comes with Essential Space and the Essential Key, features first seen on the Phone (3a).

    The cameras include a 50 MP main, a 50 MP 2x telephoto and an 8 MP ultrawide, giving the phone far more flexibility than most sub-Rs 20,000 devices. The 5000 mAh battery lasts well beyond a day, with 33W charging. Against the Redmi Note 14 and Realme Narzo 80 Pro it offers telephoto zoom and cleaner software, though rivals can charge faster.

  • Infinix GT 20 Pro

    The Infinix GT 20 Pro launched in India in May 2024 at Rs 24,999 for 8 GB plus 256 GB. It was built as a budget gaming phone, with a cyber-mecha design that includes customisable Mecha Loop LED lights around the camera module, and it targeted young buyers who might otherwise consider the Poco X6 Pro or iQOO Z9.

    Its 6.78-inch AMOLED runs at up to 144Hz, and a dedicated Pixelworks display chip handles frame interpolation in supported games. The MediaTek Dimensity 8200 Ultimate is a genuinely fast chip for the money, sustained by a vapour chamber cooling system. XOS 14 on Android 14 includes a game mode with performance tuning, though it carries more preinstalled apps than cleaner rivals.

    The 108 MP main camera produces detailed daylight shots, but the two 2 MP auxiliary lenses add little. The 5000 mAh battery offers solid gaming endurance, charging at 45W, with a bypass charging mode that powers the phone directly during play. Against the Poco X6 Pro it offers a more playful design and display chip, while Poco counters with slightly stronger raw performance.

  • Infinix Zero 30 5G

    Infinix launched the Zero 30 5G in India in September 2023 at Rs 23,999 for 8 GB plus 256 GB. It positioned the phone as a creator device, with a front camera that records 4K video at 60 frames per second, a feature normally reserved for much pricier phones. The curved display and slim body gave it a premium look to match.

    The 6.78-inch curved AMOLED runs at up to 144Hz and is bright and vivid. The MediaTek Dimensity 8020 is a capable chip, comfortably ahead of the Snapdragon 695 in rivals like the Moto G84, and handles demanding games well. XOS 13 on Android 13 is feature-rich but includes preinstalled apps and promotional notifications that some users will want to disable.

    The 108 MP main camera has OIS, backed by a 13 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP depth sensor. The 50 MP selfie camera is the star, producing sharp video with good stabilisation. A 5000 mAh battery with 68W charging fills quickly. Against the Realme 11 Pro and Redmi Note 12 Pro, it offers the best selfie video of the group but less polished software.
