Buying a mobile phone today has become an arduous task thanks to the long list of choices and the confusing marketing jargon used to promote the handset. However, buying an affordable smartphone that will last you long enough has become easier in recent times as you have several options if you want a mobile phone under Rs. 20,000 with 6GB RAM. From Xiaomi to Oppo to Asus, many popular brands are targeting the market for 6GB RAM phones under Rs. 20,000. However, we must be clear here that RAM is not indicative of the performance a handset will deliver, and that there are many factors affecting the same. Even smartphones with the latest processor and 6GB RAM (or even more) can deliver sub-par performance if the OS is well not optimised. Similarly, many such factors can impact the performance and the amount of available RAM will become inconsequential in that case. Nonetheless, if buying a mobile phone under Rs. 20,000 with 6GB RAM is on your mind, here are the options you have to choose from, in no particular order.
