12 best smartphones under 20,000 rubles

Smartphone with good value for money. Suffice it to say that Qualcomm's processor is used here. With it, there is no doubt that the device will show itself well not only in solving standard tasks, but also in games. And there is also a rich set of wireless standards. It even includes an infrared port, thanks to which you can control your old TV. And if some competitors refuse a separate audio jack, then here it is still not forgotten. The USB Type-C port will be used primarily to connect the network adapter.This action will rarely be required, as there is a 6000 mAh battery under the back cover. A definite plus! But at the same time a minus, since with such a battery the device turned out to be slightly weighty.

An excellent choice for those who demand exceptionally long survivability from a smartphone. Under its very nice rear panel is a 7000 mAh battery. It is offered to charge it through a modern USB Type-C port. You will carry out this process only once every two or three days. But you will have to pay for this by the fact that the device will pull the pocket. As for its other characteristics, buyers praise the device for a solid amount of built-in storage and a decent set of wireless modules. Even NFC is not forgotten. It is also difficult to make claims to the main camera. Only the auxiliary let us down, since their resolution is completely ridiculous. I am glad that the manufacturer did not save on the display in the same way.As a result, he is able to boast of wide viewing angles, and received Full HD resolution. And its aspect ratio is perfect for watching Hollywood productions.

The phone features a beautiful AMOLED display with Always On Display, average (judging by the reviews) cameras and a processor with good performance. Smart is one of the stable working averages that do not grab stars from the sky. The device fell in love with many for a battery of 6000 mAh with fast charging, capable of living up to 2 days without recharging, speed, as well as for the presence of a noise-canceling microphone and a nice ergonomic case. True, the M21, although popular, is clearly not up to the “top for the money”. It's all about occasional marriage, fragile screen protection out of the box and an old processor. Exynos 9611, although it pulls basic tasks with simple games, is still not able to cope with serious workloads.

Nokia smartphones are now tailored mainly for those who need the Android operating system without any branded shells. Here and in this model it is absolutely "naked". As a result, even with only 4 GB of RAM, the device functions without much slowdown. For this, you should also thank the processor, created by Qualcomm. Nothing bad can be said about the permanent memory - in this regard, Nokia 5.4 is far superior to many competitors, also sold for 20,000 rubles. But what did the manufacturer save on? Unfortunately, on wireless modules.The buyer will have to put up with not the latest versions of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. It also uses a small battery. Because of this, the device is recommended only for those who are going to operate it at a very moderate pace.

The manufacturer of this device decided to use a powerful processor. But how did he get the right price? The secret to this lies in the cameras. There are almost no auxiliary modules here. If it was necessary to save money, they would have received a very modest matrix, so it was decided to abandon them. Otherwise, it is extremely difficult to find fault with the device. The manufacturer did not eliminate the 3.5 mm audio jack. He provided his creation with a suitable amount of memory. Even wireless modules do not cause any complaints: it supports Bluetooth 5.1 and Wi-Fi 802.11ac.

The younger version of 7 Pro, featuring a smooth display. This phone is equipped with the new MediaTek Helio G95 gaming processor, which takes out heavy toys and multitasking. Smart does not heat up even with a serious load, it shows itself perfectly when processing photos and recording videos. True, the cameras here are average, but an undemanding user will be fine. Of the attractive "goodies" of the device, the owners note the presence of a recording of conversations out of the box, the smooth operation of the screen and a large amount of memory. However, some users come across defective devices and devices with unfinished firmware, which makes the model less attractive.

Samsung manufactures many components in-house. That's why she managed to endow a relatively inexpensive smartphone with an AMOLED screen that boasts high resolution and a 90-Hz refresh rate. This alone makes moving through the menu and turning pages smoother. Complements the joyful picture is not the weakest processor. Surprising and 6-gigabyte amount of RAM. Usually, for 20,000 rubles, you can get a not so impressive device. The smartphone also deserves a positive assessment for a set of rear cameras. Almost all of them have high-resolution matrices. Wide-open apertures also contribute to bright and colorful pictures.

The structure of this device included a 64-megapixel sensor OmniVision OV64B40. But don't be fooled. At the output, it takes only 16-megapixel pictures. And this is even good, since social networks do not always allow you to upload photos in their true resolution. And in this mode, HDR shooting works adequately. As for the auxiliary modules, the ultra-wide-angle one stands out among them. Alas, macro photography is carried out in a very low resolution, and therefore the result is extremely rare. Of the other features of the device, the amount of memory stands out. What is important, not only constant, but also operational! The weight of this model is 179 g. In terms of moisture protection, you should not expect anything special here: the device is not afraid only of splashes. An AMOLED screen is used to display the image, which allows you to count on excellent black depth.

The budget phone was in this collection for a reason. For the price segment up to 15,000-20,000 rubles, the smartphone produces very high-quality pictures. The gadget compares favorably with the presence of a motorized selfie camera, a large screen without cutouts, as well as a 48 MP lens with fast optics. But the main camera shoots at 12 MP, but the 48 MP mode must be selected manually. There is also night shooting here: even in the dark, the gadget produces good pictures, which is rare for cheap smart phones. The processor here is old, but coupled with 6 GB of RAM, Camon 15 PRO pulls some programs and games. In general, this gadget is a great option for those who like to take pictures, but do not want to spend fabulous sums on flagship camera phones.

This smartphone is more difficult to carry around than some power banks.Its weight reaches 485 g! Thickness is also capable of frightening any unprepared person. But on the other hand, the device received at its disposal an incredibly capacious battery. With it, you can use the network adapter only about once a week, especially if you do not regularly load your smartphone with games and other heavy tasks. A very powerful processor should also please the buyer. In addition, the device has almost perfect protection against water and dust. This is indicated by the “IP69K” mark on the box and in the technical specifications. Therefore, the smartphone is ready to function even under water, and for a very long time. Finally, the main camera, which received a 48-megapixel matrix and a wide aperture, deserves praise.

Usually, the creators of smartphones with a shock- and water-resistant housing save on cameras. However, they are fine here. Yes, the resolution is not amazing, but it still allows you to create good pictures. Even if you switch to a module with ultra wide-angle optics. The device is also suitable for taking selfies.Nothing bad can be said about the speed of transferring the finished material to the Internet. For this purpose, it is proposed to use either fast LTE networks or slightly slower Wi-Fi 802.11n. By the way, 128 GB of permanent memory is sharpened for storing photos and videos. And in addition to this, you can use a microSD card! Again, not every rugged smartphone can boast of this.

This model is in stable demand, especially on foreign Internet sites. People like the capacity of the battery, which its creators were generous with. Practice shows that the connection of the charger is required once every two or three days, not more often. Since the device turned out to be quite thick, there was a place on it not only for USB Type-C, but also for a 3.5 mm audio jack. However, the main feature of the device is not this, but its moisture protection. It complies with the IP69K standard. This means that nothing terrible will happen even if the smartphone is under water. The cameras installed here do not deserve particularly bad ratings either. What can not be said about the display.Unfortunately, the manufacturer had to save on it, as a result of which the resolution let us down. And here Bluetooth 4.2 is used, which does not please with either energy efficiency or communication stability.
