Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G is a budget smartphone that packs a lot of features, but at the cost of some compromises. The device boasts a 6.5-inch screen, 48MP primary camera, and 5000mAh battery, which provides all-day use with ease. The phone's performance is decent, handling tasks like gaming and streaming media without any issues. However, the IPS display on this model is subpar compared to other Redmi Note 10 variants, making it less ideal for watching videos or browsing photos. Additionally, the camera setup, while good in general lighting conditions, struggles with strong light and low-light scenarios. The macro lens and depth sensor are also basic, lacking the ultra-wide angle shooter found on higher-end models. The charging speed is another area where this phone falls short, with an 18W charger that takes longer to top up compared to other Redmi Note 10 devices. Battery life is still impressive, but not a standout feature in today's market. Overall, while the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G offers decent value for its price, it feels like a watered-down version of the standard Note 10. The compromise on camera capabilities and display quality make it less desirable compared to other budget smartphones. If you're set on getting a 5G phone in this price range, consider alternatives that prioritize performance and features over compromises.

realme C30

The Realme C30 is back with its budget-friendly charm. Priced between ₹8,000-₹10,000, this phone packs quite a punch. With the Unisoc T612 chipset and a 6.5-inch display, it's an attractive option for those seeking a no-frills smartphone experience. The design is slim, battery life promises two days of use, and the camera setup is adequate for casual snappers. But how well does it perform in real-world scenarios? This review delves into the details to find out if the Realme C30 is worth your consideration.
