18 yes, its still best specs phone in this range, hardware is identical to redmi note 6
20, no, you will have some loss while reselling it since prices are going down, new note 5 pro 4 64 is around 26500. If you can barer that loss its still a good phone.

Another Option is Samsung Galaxy S7 Model (without Any T-Mobile etc Logo on the back) in 21K

Terrible choice.

Software updates for S7 are almost over, and all the phones you can get for 21-23k nowadays are either refurbished, or have had display changed due to black spots.

Redmi Note 5 is definately best choice, you can look at Nokia 6.1 (with Android one, Snapdragon 630 and 3GB of RAM), Nokia 3.1 and Honor 8x might also fall under 20K budget in slightly used or Open boxed condition!

And forget about S7! or american Stock!

Honor 8x almost a high-mid ranger phone and just released in 2019. i dont think so that i can buy this phone around 20k box opened.

Redmi Note 5 Pro (4/64) seems like the best option for 30k.

You can also try to look for a used Nokia 7 Plus. It's a bit hard to find, but a great phone. Excellent battery life and regular software updates.

I haven't used a Y7 Prime, but [MENTION=35465]hamidkhatri[/MENTION] recently bought one. You can ask him any questions about that phone.

Just check the market, the market is flooded with s7's having spots and lines on LCD, moreover, its 4 generation old, updates are over. I would advise you to stay away from it.

Avoid it, Snapdragon 450 at 27k? No Thank you very much, there are a better choices available,

Very good phone as a daily driver, battery life is excellent, as Snapdragon 660 is efficient and powerful in midrange performance. You can play PUBG easily in medium settings and multi task as well. Screen & build quality is also very good and Android One experience is simply wonderful!

i personally refer to Nokia 7 Plus as Google Pixel 2 "MINI"

@murtaza12 can give you more detailed review if you need one, as his sibling used it alot!

I had a Nokia 7 Plus myself for a while, which I then sold to [MENTION=52830]mbk99[/MENTION], but my sister still has one now, and no complaints so far.

Screen quality is what you'd expect from a mid range phone. It's not mind blowing, but for a 1080p LCD, it's fine. It gets quite bright, so outdoor viewing is pretty decent.

Performance is great since it runs stock Android and the SD660 is quite capable. It will run most games just fine, and doesn't have any UI lags or stuttering.

It's a very good phone, and that's one of the reasons it's so hard to find. Almost nobody is willing to sell it. I asked 2 N7+ owners if I could buy it off them and they both refused.

If you can get it around 28-30k, it's a steal.

Yes u r right it's hard to find Nokia 7 Plus these days but I am waiting for Redmi Note 7 now. I guess 3gb 32gb variant would be between 25-30k

[MENTION=42544]murtaza12[/MENTION] I bought Huawei Y9 2019 new for 35k, it's a good phone, battery is 4000mah so it was my first priority. Camera quality is ok, of course better than my prevous moto g4 plus. It's a phone with a big notch (2 front cameras) so i have started to dislike this, coz it limits notifications on top, I would suggest to buy one with water-drop notch or no notch at all.

Considering the great phones are coming out in budget category, Xiaomi's Note 7, and Samsung's M20/M30 ... i'd say buying any older gen device won't make much sense.

I'm still waiting for these devices as i have to buy some for my family.

That regular USB port with the slowest ever charging is pretty much the worst thing about this phone. These days, no one got time to put phones on charge for upto 3 hours.
