BEST MOBILE PHONES UNDER 15000 IN INDIA

The CMF Phone 1 has interesting features and specifications that make it stand out. The swappable rear panels are a unique thing that you will find in this price segment nowadays. The phone also has an IP65 rating, good enough for minor spills. The handset also delivers decent performance in this price segment. The gaming is handled reasonably, and so does everyday tasks. Moreover, the phone brings a custom user interface that gives a unique look and feel. The phone also brings good camera performance in different lighting conditions. However, there is no support for a wide-angle lens or telephoto lens. The battery life is solid for this one, and the charging speed is good enough. 

iQoo’s Z9x takes a practical approach to design by going with a plastic rear panel and frame. While it looks like a regular budget smartphone, it offers an IP64 rating which offers proper protection against dust but basic protection against water.

The phone offers good performance for a budget smartphone at this price point and is also good for some mid-level gaming as it can handle 3D games.

Camera performance is average for a smartphone at this price point but the iQoo Z9x has only one user-accessible rear-facing camera. Software performance is good but there’s plenty of spammy notifications and preinstalled third-party apps.

Battery life is very good. The phone easily lasts two days on a single charge with casual usage and more than a day with heavy usage as well. Charging speeds are impressive and the bundled charger quickly charges the large battery.

The Moto G64 5G is a minor update over last year's Moto G54 5G. It comes with a slightly faster MediaTek Dimensity 7025 SoC, which is paired with up to 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage. The phone is fast enough for most tasks and you can also play most games on it without any heating issues or lag. However, you'll need to run high-end games on lower settings. You get a dual rear camera setup with a main 50-megapixel sensor with OIS, and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor. Photo quality is good in daylight conditions, but lowlight performance isn't that good. The phone also packs a 6,000mAh battery that can easily last two days with normal usage. A 33W fast charger is available in the box. The Moto G64 5G, while it doesn't offer major upgrades over its predecessor, is still good value for money and easy to recommend.
