Suits: Gamers and heavy users who want flagship-tier silicon without flagship pricing.
The catch: Throttles under sustained load; benchmark peaks are not representative
Suits: Buyers who charge in short bursts and want OIS with a decent sensor under Rs25,000.
The catch: 4500 nits is a peak highlight figure, not sustained full-screen brightness
Suits: Buyers who prioritise weight, clean software and in-hand feel over long-term support.
The catch: Only 1 Android upgrade — the weakest support here
Suits: Buyers who want a bright, large AMOLED and treat the camera as secondary.
The catch: 108 MP main camera has no OIS; low-light output suffers
Suits: Anyone who keeps a phone four years or longer. Nothing else near this price supports that.
The catch: 222 g is noticeably heavy
Suits: Buyers replacing a phone every two to three years who want maximum performance per rupee.
The catch: Only 2 Android upgrades and 3 years of security patches
Suits: Buyers who need 5G and a large battery at the lowest possible price and accept the slowness.
The catch: eMMC 5.1 storage rather than UFS, so apps open slowly
