Best phones under 30K INR?
Realme 12 Pro Plus seems like a decent option for the price. It has a very good camera but it’s not good for performance. Many better options are available for performance like Poco X6 Pro and Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus which provide better processors. Currently, iQOO Neo 7 Pro is available for 29K with offers which is a much better deal at this price. It offers Quallcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and a Samsung GN5 main camera sensor which is a capable sensor. Go for Realme 12 Pro Plus if you love Periscope camera.
Realme 12 Pro is kind of a overpriced phone at this price. The main sensor size is 1/1.95″ which is smaller than the previously launched Realme 11 Pro. It had 1/1.8″ sensor size. The processor also could be better for the price. Quallcomm 7s Gen 2 which is there in the Pro Plus varient is easily available at this price in other smartphones like Poco X6 and Redmi Note 13 Pro. Also this smartphone doesn’t have a periscope camera.
