You can see our selected phones for Diwali shopping. We have made a list of three top phones in different price segments. These phones are ‘best’ in their category. We have not included those phones in this list which have not been reviewed by Gadgets 360. Apart from this, we have included in our list only those smartphones which are less than six months old.
Smartphones under Rs 10,000
There is tough competition in the sub-Rs 10,000 smartphone segment in the market. We have already introduced you to smartphones in this price range. This time we have selected for you those three smartphones which you can buy for less than Rs 10,000 this Diwali.
1. Xiaomi Redmi 3S Prime
Redmi 3S Prime (Review) is the best smartphone under Rs 10,000 with great battery life. This phone has 3 GB RAM, due to which the performance of the phone remains much better. The camera of the phone with 5 inch screen also performs well. Now is a golden opportunity to buy this phone in various sales going on on Diwali.
2. Asus Zenfone Max (2016)
The Asus Zenfone Max (2016) has great battery life and a good camera too. This phone does not have a fingerprint sensor which may disappoint you. Apart from this, the resolution is very low according to the size of the phone. But despite this it is a value for money product.
3.Coolpad Note 3 Plus
The display and fingerprint sensor of Coolpad Note 3 Plus, launched in the month of May, is good. However, the software of this phone will put you in a bit of confusion. If you’re willing to spend the money for good hardware, this is a great option.
Between Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000
We have already told you about the best smartphones priced below Rs 15,000. And still there has not been much change in this list. It was very easy for us to choose the best phone in this list. These phones have joined the top three by defeating other smartphones in this range.
1. Lenovo ZUK Z1
The Lenovo ZUK Z1 (Review) is a great option all around and has excellent battery life. However, buying this phone can be a bit difficult but if you manage to get it then it will prove to be a powerful phone.
2. Xiaomi Mi Max
However, Xiaomi Mi Max (Review) looks very good in terms of specifications. But it will be especially liked by those people who want bigger screen size. Talking about the 6.44 inch screen, it seems to be a tablet. If you do not have any problem with its screen then this phone is good in every way. Its battery lasted for 21 hours in our video loop test.
motorola moto g4 plus
Now Motorola has become very popular in this price segment. And the Motorola Moto G4 Plus is a great choice. However, the camera of the phone could have been better but apart from this the phone is an all-rounder. Its looks are quite good for a phone of this price.
Between Rs 15,000 to Rs 20,000
If your budget is up to Rs 20,000 then you can choose any one of these three smartphones. Samsung Galaxy S7 Prime is at the top of this list. These three phones have been included in our list in the category less than Rs 20,000.

2. Lenovo Z2 Plus
The company has marketed this device as an affordable handset equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor. Its price has been kept less than Rs 20,000. In terms of performance, Lenovo Z2 Plus is capable of challenging any flagship device (Review). The Lenovo Z2 Plus may not be the most exciting flagship phone, but its biggest draw is its price. At Rs 17,999, this phone promises to give you great quality at an affordable price.
3. Asus Zenfone 3 Laser
Asus has priced the Zenfone 3 Laser at around Rs 20,000. The camera of Asus Zenfone 3 Laser (Review) is very good but its high price cannot be called justified.

Between Rs 20,000 to Rs 30,000
If your budget goes up to Rs 30,000 then you can choose any one of these three smartphones. OnePlus 3 was launched in June this year and it still remains people’s favorite phone. These three phones have been included in our list in the category less than Rs 30,000.
1. OnePlus 3
There are many things which are very good in OnePlus 3 (Review). And it is one of the few devices that has achieved a score of 10 in our performance test. It has 6 GB RAM and if we talk about specifications, there is no shortage in it. The battery life of the phone is good, the design is great and the performance is also very good.
2. Huawei Honor 8
Huawei Honor 8 (Review), launched in October, is a phone in this range that can compete with OnePlus 3. However, it has 4 GB RAM. But its curved edges, good performance and beautiful looks make it a perfect package. But it is included in those new Android smartphones which support only one SIM. If this is not a problem for you then this is a great phone under Rs 30,000.
3. Asus Zenfone 3
Asus Zenfone 3 looks very good. It has a good display and fingerprint scanner. The overall performance of the phone will not disappoint you. However, it is a bit expensive. If you get any offer on this then you can definitely choose this smartphone.
