Looking for the best smartphones under ₹40,000 in India? Here’s a curated list of top picks offering impressive performance, cameras, and value.

Best smartphones under Rs 40,000 in India including Vivo T3 Ultra, Samsung Galaxy S23 FE and more 

<h2>Looking for the best smartphones under ₹40,000 in India? Here&rsquo;s a curated list of top picks offering impressive performance, cameras, and value.</h2>

If you&rsquo;re looking for a new phone, but are on a tight budget here&rsquo;s a quick roundup of the best phones in India you can buy right now for under Rs 40,000. After testing a wide range of devices, I&rsquo;ve narrowed it down to my top 5 picks. &nbsp;
Whether you&rsquo;re looking for great cameras, powerful performance, or a solid all-rounder that&rsquo;ll last, this list has something for everyone. &nbsp;
<h3>1. Vivo T3 Ultra&nbsp;</h3>
Starting at Rs 32,000, the Vivo T3 Ultra offers incredible value, especially if you&rsquo;ve been eyeing the Vivo V40 Pro but want something similar at a lower price. This phone is a must-have for gamers with its flagship-grade Dimensity 9200+ chipset&mdash;an upgraded version of the already powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9200.&nbsp;
In our benchmark tests, the T3 Ultra even outperformed the Vivo V40 Pro and held its own against the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered
Moto Edge 50 Ultra. It runs BGMI smoothly at 60FPS and Call of Duty Mobile at 120FPS, making it an excellent choice for gaming.&nbsp;
Now, since it&rsquo;s a Vivo phone, you can expect impressive camera performance, and the T3 Ultra doesn&rsquo;t disappoint. &nbsp;&nbsp;
In terms of battery, its 5500mAh battery delivers almost 9 hours of screen time&mdash;perfect for gaming sessions or all-day use. If you want even more performance, the 12GB RAM variant at Rs 36,000 is a great option.&nbsp;
So, if gaming and battery life are priorities and you also want good photos, the Vivo T3 Ultra is a fantastic choice!&nbsp;
<h3>2. Realme 13 Pro Plus&nbsp;</h3>
When it comes to good photos, the Realme 13 Pro Plus is definitely a phone to consider. &nbsp;
It's actually India&rsquo;s first smartphone with two Lytia sensors. It features the Lytia 701 for the 50MP main camera and the Lytia 600 for the 50MP 3x telephoto lens, plus an 8MP ultrawide lens to complete the triple camera setup.&nbsp;
Realme has also introduced a new AI algorithm for post-processing, which takes the camera quality up a notch. &nbsp;
You can see the results in the sample photos in the video&mdash;shots from this phone have excellent detail and dynamic range. Night photos are impressive too, thanks to its advanced noise control and shadow detail. For portrait shots, the 13 Pro Plus delivers sharp images with a contrasty look and great edge detection.&nbsp;
Now, the downside here is the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset. By 2024 standards, it&rsquo;s pretty basic&mdash;it handles everyday tasks and light gaming fine, but it&rsquo;s clear Realme is making you choose between camera quality and performance.&nbsp;
That said, at under Rs 30,000 online, this phone is a solid choice if you prioritize camera performance above everything else!&nbsp;
<h3>3. Samsung Galaxy S23 FE&nbsp;</h3>
Launched in October last year, the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE is the more affordable version of the flagship Galaxy S23 series, but it still brings a lot to the table with premium-level specifications and a design that mirrors its higher-end sibling.&nbsp; The S23 FE originally launched at Rs 55,000, but now, with the arrival of the latest S24 FE, you can typically find the older model for around Rs 35,000 online. So, the question is&mdash;is the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE still worth buying over a year after its release?&nbsp;
Surprisingly, the Exynos 2200 chipset has held up really well into 2024. It&rsquo;s not the latest chipset, but it handles most tasks&mdash;including gaming&mdash;smoothly without any hiccups. Plus, those who pick up the Galaxy S23 FE will continue to receive software updates until Android 17 (2027), ensuring it stays relevant for a few more years.&nbsp;
The camera system is another major highlight. The S23 FE features a triple rear camera setup, including a 50MP primary, 12MP ultrawide, and 8MP telephoto sensor. When shooting outdoors, the 50MP primary camera delivers excellent HDR performance, well-balanced contrast, and vibrant colors. The video quality is also top-notch, with stability and well-exposed footage.&nbsp;
The 3x zoom telephoto camera performs admirably, and the 30x hybrid zoom is impressive, thanks to Samsung&rsquo;s post-processing magic.&nbsp;
In other words, the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE is an all-rounder with premium features now available at a much lower price. If you&rsquo;re looking for flagship performance without the flagship price, this one definitely deserves a closer look. &nbsp;
<h3>4. OnePlus 12R &nbsp;</h3>
Next, we have the OnePlus 12R, another all-rounder that&rsquo;s quickly become a popular choice&mdash;and for good reason. &nbsp; This phone boasts a stunning 6.78-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with Dolby Vision and HDR 10+ credentials, so it's perfect for enjoying content on streaming platforms. It even matches the OnePlus 12 with a crazy high peak brightness of 4500 nits, ensuring the screen is more than bright enough for clear visibility even in bright daylight&nbsp;
Under the hood, it runs on the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, making it a solid pick for gaming and high-performance tasks.&nbsp; While the camera setup isn&rsquo;t the most versatile, the 50MP main sensor with OIS delivers sharp and clear shots that are perfect for your Insta feed. &nbsp;
Another major perk is its 5500mAh battery, paired with the super-fast 100W SUPERVOOC charger. It takes just 26 minutes to charge the phone from 1% to 100%, which is just fantastic.&nbsp;
So, if OnePlus 12 is out of your budget, the OnePlus 12R could be a great alternative, starting at Rs 39,999 for the 8GB RAM, 128GB storage variant. Plus, you can often find the phone for an even better price with discounts online, making it an even sweeter deal. &nbsp;
<h3>5. Moto Edge 50 Pro&nbsp;</h3>
The Moto Edge 50 Pro has quickly become one of my top picks at a starting price of Rs 32,000, especially considering everything it offers. You get a 144Hz display and the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor, so it handles gaming and multitasking like a champ. And the 125W charge is seriously fast&mdash;fully charges in under 20 minutes, which is a lifesaver when you&rsquo;re always on the go.&nbsp;
The camera system also solid but for me, it&rsquo;s the software that steals the show. Motorola&rsquo;s Hello UI based on Android 14 is clean and bloatware-free. Plus, Motorola's gesture shortcuts are always fun to use. &nbsp;

13 Pro Series

<h2>The Realme 13 Pro Plus &amp; Realme 13 Pro debut with the brand's new HyperImage+ AI photo processing algorithm. They also get bigger batteries and brighter displays than their predecessors. Are they worth it?</h2>

The Realme 13 Pro series is here. These phones succeed the Realme 12 Pro series which was known for its great design and good camera performance.
However, this new series comes with a price increase, leaving us wondering what significant upgrades justify the added cost.
Did Realme truly need to refresh this series so soon? Let&rsquo;s dive in and find out.
<h3>Realme 13 Pro Plus &amp; Realme 13 Pro Cameras</h3>
We have to start with cameras, because these two basically aim to be the best camera mid-range smartphones.
By the way, the camera island includes the only tiny visual difference between the two phones. The Pro+ has 3 lenses, while the Pro has two lenses, with the third one being a hollow cutout.
Anyway, earlier this year, the Realme 12 Pro earned the honour of one of the most affordable smartphones with a telephoto camera. The 13 Pro, however, ditches that.
Yup, this smartphone does not have a telephoto lens anymore. It gets just two camera sensors: a 50MP main with a Sony Lytia 600 sensor, and an 8MP ultrawide. &nbsp;
The Pro+, on the other hand, still impresses. It is, in fact, India&rsquo;s first smartphone with two Lytia sensors: you have the Lytia 701 behind the main camera, and the Lytia 600 behind the 3x telephoto lens. Completing its triple camera setup is an 8MP ultrawide lens.
These two phones also come with HyperImage+, which is Realme&rsquo;s new AI algorithm for camera post processing.&nbsp;
By the way, both phones also have the same chipset, so theoretically, the image processing should be pretty similar on both.
Please watch the video to see camera samples.
But, that&rsquo;s not the case, since the Pro+ images showcase better detail and dynamic range in most cases. Notice how both phones give a saturated boost.&nbsp;
Nighttime photos are a clear lead for the Pro+ because of its superior noise control and better details in shadows. &nbsp;
Ultrawide shots have matching colours in a few shots, but different in others. I assume it's the same 8MP sensor on both phones, so the difference in colours is kind of surprising here.
Then, obviously, the 13 Pro+ takes sharp portrait photos with a contrasty look and great edge detection.&nbsp;
The 13 Pro takes 2x digital zoom portraits from its main sensor. But I&rsquo;m kind of surprised that the in-sensor zoom doesn't work really well, leading to soft portrait photos.&nbsp;
Video is not a strong point of either of these phones, but the pro+ has a lot of potential.&nbsp;
It can shoot at the 4K 30fps with good detail, but stabilisation is only available at 1080p which is a bummer.&nbsp;
The Realme 13 Pro, on the other hand, has exposure jump issues.&nbsp;
Also the 32MP selfie camera isn't much to brag about. Photos taken from it are fine, but on the softer side.&nbsp;
So, it is totally worth it to spend that extra money on the Pro+ if you want a good camera setup.&nbsp;
You also get AI assisted post processing options in the gallery app. There&rsquo;s the AI object eraser, which works really well most of the time. Then, there&rsquo;s the new AI Ultra Clarity, which does make your facial expression quite weird.
Now, Realme made some bold claims about the 13 Pro+'s telephoto lens rivaling DSLRs and Mirrorless cameras, so we put it to the test against a Sony Alpha 6500. I must say, the 13 Pro+ results were quite impressive.&nbsp;
<h3>Realme 13 Pro Plus &amp; Realme 13 Pro Battery &amp; Chargimg</h3>
Alright, beyond cameras, there is one more difference between these two phones, and that&rsquo;s their charging speed. The Pro+ gets 80W fast charging, while the Pro gets just 45W.
I say &lsquo;just 45W&rsquo; because the Realme 12 Pro supported 67W fast charging, in fact Realme&rsquo;s own cheaper Narzo 70 Pro has 67W charging, so I don&rsquo;t really know why the 13 Pro gets just 45W.&nbsp;
On the other hand, both smartphones have excellent battery life with a screen time of around 9 hours with mixed use thanks to their big 5200mAh batteries.
<h3>Realme 13 Pro Plus &amp; Realme 13 Pro Design &amp; Display</h3>
With differences out of the way, let&rsquo;s touch upon other important aspects.&nbsp;
You cannot argue that these are great looking smartphones. Beyond the sleek curved glass sandwich design, the back panel is inspired by the work of French artist Oscar-Claude Monet.&nbsp;
This Monet Gold colour features a matte surface with a sand-like shimmery texture that looks truly beautiful. But for those who prefer vegan leather, Realme still offers the Emerald Green colourway.
The frame here is made of plastic, which is acceptable given the price. Additionally, the phone has an IP65 rating for added durability.
The new display on these phones is also impressive for the most part. The 6.7-inch curved AMOLED panel has great colours and viewing angles. But, more importantly, it is now very bright with a peak brightness of 2000 nits and an HBM brightness of 1200 nits.&nbsp;
This is a major upgrade over the Realme 12 Pro series, which came with just 900 nits of peak brightness.
But, there is no HDR support here, which, honestly, is a very strange omission. At least there&rsquo;s a pair of good sounding stereo speakers for your TV show binge sessions.&nbsp;
<h3>Realme 13 Pro Plus &amp; Realme 13 Pro Performance &amp; Software</h3>
Moving on, these two smartphones use the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset. That&rsquo;s an upgrade for the Pro model since the 12 Pro had the Snapdragon 6 Gen1. However, for the Pro+, this chip remains unchanged from its predecessor.
Anyway, by mid 2024 standards, this chipset is pretty mediocre for either of these smartphones. In fact, the Realme GT 6T with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 is literally the same price as the Realme 13 Pro+.&nbsp;
So, it&rsquo;s like Realme is letting you choose: you either get a performance phone or a camera phone.&nbsp;
Still, smooth daily performance and short gaming sessions should not be a problem for the 7s Gen 2.&nbsp;
The Realme UI 5 powering the two models is also a familiar affair: a feature-rich software with a decent amount of bloatware, including hot apps and hot games folders. You will have to dedicate some time to declutter things here.
<h3>Realme 13 Pro Plus &amp; Realme 13 Pro Review</h3>
Here&rsquo;s the deal, if you like the Realme 13 Pro+, just go for it. It excels in many areas, and its camera system is pretty potent overall.&nbsp;
The Realme 13 Pro is also a good daily driver but its camera performance could have been better. So, try looking for a discount on the Realme 12 Pro instead, if your budget is under ₹25,000.

The Realme 13 Pro series features AI photography with Hyperimage+ architecture, incorporating Sony Lytia sensors and a Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset. Both models offer 50MP main cameras, AMOLED displays, and 5,200 mAh batteries.

The Realme 13 Pro is equipped with a 50MP main sensor (26mm) and the same 8MP ultrawide lens as the 13 Pro+.

Both models have a 6.7-inch AMOLED display (FHD+ 120Hz) with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection and are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset.
