Roskachestvo named the best cheap smartphones. Budget Xiaomi on par with OnePlus 9 Pro

The non-profit organization “Roskachestvo” has updated its rating of the best smartphones, which includes 132 models. In the blog about test results, the agency focused on budget models, highlighting both the best options and the best in certain categories.

Experts noted that now budget smartphones up to 20,000 rubles are increasingly equipped with features that were previously available only in flagships. And in many respects, except for cameras, inexpensive models can completely overtake premium ones. So, for example, Xiaomi Redmi Note 10s (3.7778 points) for 19,500 rubles in many respects bypassed or turned out to be on a par with the OnePlus 9 Pro (3,7800 points) for 60,000 rubles.

The best smartphones under 20,000 rubles

In the ranking of the best low-cost smartphones, the first place was awarded to Xiaomi Redmi Note 10s. Roskachestvo noted that budget models are often deprived of good cameras, and according to this indicator, this smartphone turned out to be the best among competitors, although it lags far behind more expensive devices. Also, experts highlighted good battery life and a large display (but chided for the lack of support for 90 Hz frequency).

Best budget smartphones with good battery

Among inexpensive smartphones with good autonomy, Xiaomi Redmi Note 10s also won with a result of 53 hours without recharging, but Samsung Galaxy A12 is only 2 hours behind it. Experts noted that the winners surpass all flagships from Apple, Samsung and Sony in these indicators.

The best budget smartphones for gaming

Redmi Note 10s was also recognized as the best for games, but its leadership is ambiguous – most likely, it was awarded the victory due to the combination of a good processor and 6 GB of RAM (competitors have 2 GB of RAM less). But experts praised the Realme Narzo 30 5G – it stands out primarily with a display with a refresh rate of 90 Hz and a MediaTek Dimensity 700 5G chipset.

Best low-cost smartphones with large display

In this category, the deserved leader is the Samsung Galaxy M32. It not only has an advanced OLED display (not LCD) with HDR10 support, balanced colors, good contrast and excellent viewing angles, but also a 90Hz refresh rate. Also, experts noted the shock resistance – the smartphone passed the “drum test” without damage.
