Hi,

I am searching for a smartphone to buy in the above mentioned budget. It can be brand new or used

My main requirements are good camera, fast charging, 1 day battery life

Which is the best in the following options


  • Galaxy A30
  • Note 6 Pro 4GB 64GB
  • MI 8 Lite 4GB 64GB

What other options I have?

Mi 8 Lite would be your best option as Redmi Note 7 will feature almost same specs but high price!

Honor Play is mostly good fast charging,1 day battery life,good chipset so u can throw anything on it and it will run it smoothly on the other hand camera is not so good imo i could be wrong because its my secondary device 1st is iphone so i expect equally good results from honor play which is not right considering the budget.

Try it in huawei display center than u can make your mind about it.Mostly it will give u your moneys worth.

[MENTION=14789]sinnersaint[/MENTION] & i think Mi 8 Lite has better Selfie camera than Redmi Note 7.

Please Bear in mind that the "MI" branding smartphone offering from Xiaomi is considered more premium as compared to their "Redmi" lineup of smartphones.

Just like OPPO and its sub brand "Realme" & Huawei and its sub brand "Honor".

Guys how is Realme 3 4gb 64gb brand new in 26500?
it is a decent option but it Uses a dated MediaTek chipset! i wouldn't personally recommend it. If still you're interested then DARAZ had some sort of Launch discount on it, go & check out DARAZ.

Look if local warranty isnt a issue for you, then you can get a MI 8 Lite for 29.5K Brand new PTA Approved with SD 660 Chipset, 4GB RAM, 64GB Storage, Very Decent Cameras, very Good Stylish looking & overall very well built quality smartphone.

Qmart.pk is offering one is Midnight Black in almost 29.5K, you can place you order there with COD service and mention in Order Notes that the Phone must be Brand New & PTA Approved (Even though it will be most likely but still just to be on the safe side, and then they'll surely call you for order confirmation and tell you the relevant details).

well the price keeps on Fluctuating due to Dollar Rupee Deterioration!

i have never used Qmart, but i always use Online websites to buy new smartphones like Ishopping, HomeShopping, Telemart. So i think Qmart isn't an exception.

Non Warranty phones are always cheaper, Consider this example where a Brand New Samsung Galaxy Note 9 DUAL Sim with official warranty can be bought for 130 o 139K. Whereas the same Brand New Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Dual Sim without warranty can be bought for 98K or 95K, so it make sense for Mi 8 lite without warranty being this cheap!

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.
