Not all phones marketed for camera deliver on that promise. We score devices on photo quality, video recording consistency, and night mode performance. At this price point, the gap between best and worst is significant — the wrong choice will frustrate you within months.
Our engine filters out devices with known reliability issues, weak service networks in India, and insufficient software update windows. A phone lacking updates after 2 years is a security risk — not a bargain.
