As the Diwali 2024 season is around the corner, people are looking at gift or upgrade their personal machines in terms of the best devices. If you're looking at buying a new smartphone with an excellent camera under Rs 25,000, then you have come to the right place. The lot here talks about camera-centric phones up until performance value arrives at the table. Here are the top five camera phones under Rs 25,000 that you can buy right away:
1. OnePlus Nord CE 4 5G
OnePlus Nord CE 4 is equipped with the IP54 rating and polycarbonate shell and back panel. Performance is not too shabby for a casual user: it's bright, HDR10 certified, but poorly responding to games due to weak touch sensitivity. It runs on Oxygen OS 14, based on Android 14, with the phone offering customizability and new AI-enabled features like Fluid Cloud. Camera performance is average, but a video recording quality is a bit disappointing at this price point. The battery life is quite excellent with fast wired charging. It's a solid choice for a non-gamer.
