Xiaomi has always been very aggressive about the price to value ratio. They are the pioneers of the budget segment in India. Redmi Note 7 Pro is their latest offering which is packed with Snapdragon 675, unique gradient colors and 48 MP camera. It is offered in Neptune Blue, Space Grey, and Nebula Red. I’m a fan of Neptune blue and that gradient looks really beautiful. It is hard to believe that they are offering such good design under 15000.
Redmi Note 7 Pro is offered with a 4/6GB RAM variant along with storage options of 64/128GB. The base variant costs INR 14000 and it goes all the way up to INR 17000. It has one of the best battery life compared to any other smartphone under this list, thanks to its massive 4000mAh battery.
The only con about this device would be the ads served right into their OS, which is MIUI. If you’re already used to it than I wouldn’t think twice before buying this device. Redmi Note 7 Pro is one of the best Android Pie phones in India under INR 15000.
2. Realme 3 Pro
Oppo recently launched a sub-brand “Realme” to compete against the Redmi series by Xaiomi. Realme 3 Pro is their latest offering which is to compete for other brands sub 15000 price range. Realme 3 Pro is the perfect alternative to Redmi Note 7 Pro. It is packed with Snapdragon 710, unlike Snapdragon 675 on Redmi Note 7 Pro. It surely has its own advantage with a better processor and GPU when it comes to gaming.
Realme 3 Pro is packed with the 25MP front camera and 16MP + 5MP dual-camera setup at the rear. To put it in perspective it has the same rear camera as OnePlus 6T. The images captured are vibrant, sharp and has a lot of detailed. It also offers night mode and arguably performs the best compared to competitors.
Considering the Redmi Note 7 Pro is offered only in flash sales, considering Realme 3 Pro is a good option if you are looking for a great Android Pie phone. It has a 6.3-inch display with dewdrop notch and gradient backs similar to Redmi Note 7 Pro.
3. Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2
Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 is the successor to the popular M1 Pro device. The OEM has been really smart to launch their smartphones with Stock Android, unlike other competitions which offer MIUI and ColorOS. Zenfone Max Pro M2 shines when it comes to OS and battery.
It is packed with Snapdragon 660 and settles below Realme 3 Pro and Redmi Note 7 Pro when it comes to performance. However, it doesn’t compromise when it comes to battery. It is packed with a 5000mAh battery and lasts easily for a day or two. I played heavy games like PUBG and San Andreas without any problems.
The strongest point about this device has to be the UI, it is simple and clean for anyone to use. It also starts around INR 10000 which means it is the ideal smartphone for parents or grandparents. It also supports Qualcomm Quick Charge technology.
