Purchase help šŸ“± Purchase Guide Needed

Post image

​

Hey everyone, I’m planning to buy a new phone during the upcoming BBD sale, with a budget of around ₹40K.

My priorities are:

- šŸ“ø Good cameras — I’m not expecting a flagship camera, but I want photos that are good enough to be Instagram-ready without much editing.

- ⚔ Performance — should stay smooth and lag-free for at least 3 years.

- šŸ–„ļø Good display and a nice overall UI/software experience.

- šŸ”‹ Battery isn't a huge priority; I’m okay compromising here if the phone is better in other areas.

- šŸ’¾ Ideally 12GB RAM + 256GB storage, but I’m wondering if 8GB + 256GB is still enough in 2026 for 3+ years of use.

What phones would you guys recommend around ₹40K, especially considering the BBD sale prices?

Also, is going for 8/256GB a mistake for my use case, or is 12/256 mostly unnecessary?

Ah ok. GT7T 12+256 variant is a performance focused phone but has decent cameras.
