15 best smartphones under 15,000 rubles

A very interesting device. Even at first glance, the elongation of its screen is striking. This fact should appeal to those who regularly use their smartphone to watch movies. Also TECNO Pova 2 is bought because of its battery. I am glad that they support fast charging. The owners do not write anything bad in their reviews about the connector used, because it is a convenient USB Type-C. The 3.5mm jack for wired headphones hasn't gone anywhere either. If you connect them, you can activate the FM radio. Finally, the main camera evokes positive emotions. The only pity is that you can’t say the same about auxiliary ones - their resolution does not exceed 2 megapixels.

The Infinix brand is insanely popular in African countries. For some time now, smartphones spreading under it are beginning to be actively sold in our country. In particular, a model called Hot 11 Play should be a success. It meets the expectations of many unassuming users. The device can be easily used as an MP3 player by connecting wired or Bluetooth headphones to it.The device will sound for a long time, because under its back cover there is a 6000 mAh battery. On this very panel, a fingerprint scanner is also found. I am glad that he is not forgotten, but he is saddened by his whereabouts. However, the fingerprint sensor, which is built into the display, is the lot of devices costing much more than the 15,000 rubles we designated. Due to the price tag, you should not expect from a smartphone and an impressive camera.

A great smartphone for those who are not able to call themselves a gamer. Inside the device is a modest processor by modern standards, so heavy games run only with low graphics settings. Yes, and HD-screen resolution will not suit everyone. But otherwise, it is extremely difficult to find fault with him. The device has enough permanent memory. And even if it turns out to be not enough, the microSD card slot helps out. The device also received a 3.5 mm audio jack. This is important, because buyers of budget smartphones usually use wired headphones. Another distinguishing feature of this model is a capacious battery. It charges via a convenient USB Type-C port.

Typically, budget smartphones use a simple LCD display. But the creators of Infinix HOT 11S did not save on it. They have implemented a Full HD+ resolution panel here. Moreover, the refresh rate has been increased to 90 Hz. There is no doubt that after buying this device, all the others with a standard parameter will seem too slow to you. Even if they are equipped with a more powerful processor! The main camera, which included a 50-megapixel matrix, should also please the buyer. You can save pictures and videos in the built-in memory, since its volume turned out to be quite adequate. You can only regret the auxiliary modules of the camera. Alas, but their resolution does not exceed 2 megapixels, and therefore I don’t want to use them at all.

An excellent inexpensive smartphone that can be bought for 15,000 rubles. The screen is large - the diagonal is as much as 6.59 inches, and if you also take into account that there are no bangs or a cutout for the front camera on the screen, then Honor 9X immediately becomes one of the most large-screen phones. The selfie camera module is located on the periscope, which leaves the top edge. The device itself is interesting not only for its large screen and design - it is very productive, endowed with a large amount of internal memory and a good camera. She shoots at 48 megapixels. If you are looking for a smartphone with a large clear screen in the price range under 15,000 rubles, this option will be the best.

This smartphone has at its disposal a huge screen. If it had a different aspect ratio, then the device could easily be confused with a tablet! However, it should be remembered that the manufacturer had to save a lot in order to reach an impressive price tag. As a result, the LCD panel has only HD resolution. If the smartphone is turned over, you can see the fingerprint scanner. Yes, it is located on the back panel, and someone will find it inconvenient. Some buyers may be upset by the camera, the resolution of which does not exceed 13 megapixels. But the smartphone also has positive aspects. For example, the device is able to boast a 6000 mAh battery. Surprisingly, even with its presence, the weight of the device does not exceed 164 g!

A smartphone that is inexpensive and has everything that young people need. All important wireless communication protocols are in place – NFC for contactless payments, Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth. Performance is up to par too. This smartphone is very popular among users. And the triple camera is the main reason for this. Sensors at 24, 8 and 2 megapixels work wonders. The pictures are comparable to those taken on expensive camera phones, but only on condition that there is enough light. In the dark, the quality drops as expected, noise appears, detailing and color reproduction suffer. But not as noticeable as it is in the inexpensive competitors of this Honor. The front camera is also good - it has a resolution of 32 megapixels. This is one of the best budget Chinese smartphones with a good camera.

Xiaomi should be commended for using not only a 50-megapixel main camera here, but also a solid ultra-wide-angle module, whose matrix resolution is 8 megapixels.But because of this, it is by no means always possible to buy this model for the 15,000 rubles indicated by us. By the way, if we talk about other auxiliary modules, they still turned out to be mediocre. The resolution of the depth sensor and macro camera is only 2 megapixels. But here the display did not let us down. Its resolution is Full HD +, and the refresh rate is 90 Hz. As a result, the smartphone is able to boast of a smooth scrolling of the menu, as the increased "hertz" is noticeable in some games.

This model is often purchased for the sake of shooting selfies. The device copes with this task without any problems, since the lens of the 16-megapixel front camera is hidden in the teardrop-shaped cutout of its display. The main camera also evokes positive emotions. At least its main module. It’s better not to think about auxiliary ones - this is the misfortune of almost all smartphones, whose cost does not exceed 15,000 rubles. To send pictures to the global web, it is proposed to use a fast Wi-Fi 802.11ac or 4G network. There is also a fifth version of the "blue tooth". If you still use a wired headset, the 3.5mm audio jack will come to the rescue.It is also used to activate the FM radio.

Unfortunately, it has only quite good water protection. There is no talk of shock resistance. Under the "hood" of the smartphone - 2 gigabytes of RAM and 16 gigabytes of storage for files. Not much, but the latter can be expanded with a memory card. The processor is also not very - only 1.5 GHz for 4 cores. Oddly enough, the model has a fingerprint scanner. The device has a large display - 5.7 inches, but the resolution for them is only 1440x720 pixels. However, the picture is not blurred and does not "grain". The model has mediocre cameras - both 8 megapixels.And if this is enough for a selfie, then for a full-fledged rear camera - no.

Small but heavy smartphone. It has a shock-resistant case, which is also completely protected from water. This means that the device can be safely dropped into the river - nothing will happen to it. You just need to try to find it as soon as possible. Due to the modest size, it is difficult to find fault with the display resolution - pixelation is not striking in any case. The disadvantage of such dimensions is only that the manufacturer failed to place a particularly capacious battery inside. Therefore, you will have to remember the network adapter every day. As for memory, the creators did not save on it. As well as on wireless modules. What can not be said about the cameras. Alas, this is not the strongest side of DOOGEE S40 Pro.

A weighty smartphone, the main feature of which is the presence of a shock-resistant and waterproof case. The IP68 standard says that the device is ready to spend some time at a meter depth. It is because of this case that the manufacturer had to make his choice in favor of a not very large display, otherwise the device would have turned out to be unimaginably large. But on the other hand, the processor does not need to work hard to draw a picture on such a screen. As a result, slowdowns become very rare. It should be noted and support for high-speed wireless modules. The buyer is waiting for the fifth version of Bluetooth, he will be able to use the NFC chip.

A very good smartphone, fully justifies its cost.In the cutout of its display is a good front camera. And don't be fooled by its 8-megapixel resolution! The screen is made with IPS technology, so you can count on perfect viewing angles. If you turn the smartphone upside down, you can see three lenses at once. Unfortunately, two of them hide low-resolution matrices. And only the main module can boast of creating decent 13-megapixel photos. To send images to a social network, the easiest way is to use 4G. Also among the wireless modules present here are Wi-Fi 802.11n and Bluetooth 4.2. If the quality of the latter does not suit you, a 3.5 mm jack will come to the rescue, to which any wired headphones are connected without any problems.

In general, the smartphone is comfortable and practical, fits well in the hand. The owners of the gadget write in the reviews that they like the unusual design of the device, which is not like others in the same price category.And in general, according to buyers, the device is very good and worth the money. On board the smartphone that falls under our price category is an 8-core processor, four cores of which operate at a frequency of 2.36 GHz, and four more at 1.7 GHz. He is assisted by a dual-core graphics chip and 3 gigabytes of RAM. There is a good dual camera with modules of 13 and 2 megapixels, which supports macro mode quite well. Autonomy is supported by a 3000 mAh battery.

If you look at the characteristics of the display, it seems that we are waiting for a very small smartphone. But actually it is not. Its dimensions are optimal, not microscopic. The fact is that there is a certain area above and below the screen, as well as on its sides. And the presence of an impact-resistant case affects the thickness. And if usually such devices are deprived of a fingerprint scanner, then here it is still present, albeit only on the rear panel. Another important feature of the device is its moisture protection. It is implemented according to the IP69K standard. This means that the smartphone is able to spend a long time under water.And what did the manufacturer save on? Mostly on camera. Its main module has only 13-megapixel resolution, and I don’t want to talk about auxiliary ones. Also, the creators have built in not the fastest Wi-Fi module, but with such a screen, its capabilities are enough.
