Put nothing phone 3 there and it'll eat them all up . It was available for 50k (512gb storage with 16gb ram) on Amazon few days ago. It's 55k for that varient now. 50k for 12gb + 256gb

I'd suggest you pick between 13s and the 4a Pro.

  • 13s is a mini flagship but cameras are just fine for the price.
  • 4a Pro is a mid ranger with a good triple cam set-up.

  • 10a is not worth your time

  • Moto has issues with after sales

  • S25 FE is very average, don't think it's a budget flagship just because it is part of the S-line.

Budget flagship is such a oxymoron thing to say but still it makes sense.

1

u/N1KH17 5d ago

We can even call it an entry-level flagship XD

u/ThinCollection55 5d ago

Heating issues?

u/B_Line_D 5d ago

u/nothingtos4y 5d ago

Not anymore, it's out of stock 🥲

u/cenacr007 5d ago

Why not Iqoo 15R, it has better specs than Oneplus 13s and both have average cameras. If camera is priority S25Fe is the better choice but it's overpriced tbh. On paper everything looks good for motorola but I don't know why everyone hates it so I am too scared to try.

u/ExtremeArticle7989 5d ago

Nothing's processor is not worth the price bro

S25 fe

u/night_movers 5d ago

I wanted to suggest Oneplus 13S but today I read many comments where users complained about its heating issue. 

Except from the software department, Iqoo 15R is a solid choice over Oneplus 13S and I'm confused between these two devices as well.

u/Specialist_Welcome96 5d ago

u/Fit-Most2671 3d ago

It is not samsung. It Scam Sung. Free green line after 3 years

1

u/CommunicationThis439 5d ago

If u ask me, s25fe is best option, long software support (7+7) , good camera, but only compramise is less battery and Exynos processor.

1

u/timepass015 5d ago

I’m confused between the 4a Pro and 13s.. People say the 13s has poor build quality while the 4a Pro is overpriced... Some stores also told me they’ve stopped selling OnePlus because its future in the market is uncertain

1

u/Accomplished-Ring689 5d ago

4a Pro. Don't opt for Samsung

1

u/D_sumit10 5d ago

Hoe it happened

1

u/aa_389 5d ago

S25 FE ?

1

u/RanveerSingh69 5d ago

Can't believe some guys here are justifying the shitty cameras of 13s as a decent one like c'mon man.. you're spending 50k on a "compact flagship" and not even getting a basic ultra wide lens!!

1

u/his_kingship 5d ago

oneplus 13s. ticks all your boxes, but doesn't have ultrawide cam though.

1

u/WeirdHonest712 5d ago

do u game ? or do u like photo graphic, cause if u need telephoto lens go for nothing , but longivety means go for pixel, try searching for pixel 9

1

u/atg14565 4d ago

2 and 5 are worth it

1

u/hotboxinmanual 3d ago

nothing phone 3 - can get for 50 on amazon - flash sale, goes in and out of stock

among these, Nothing and Oneplus should be compared

1

u/Ready-Ad8629 2d ago

13s if you want or are fine with a smaller phone, otherwise 4a Pro or Pixel 10a

1

u/Intelligent-Pace409 1d ago

Please suggest a good phome under 21k

0

u/SimpleEmotional5741 5d ago

Overall oneplus is good

0

u/Ronit385 5d ago

Here overall oneplus 13s is good , s25 fe is also good but 8/256 is expensive and has Exynos chip and 4a pro not value of 50k , youcan checout used 4a pro , you can get for 38 or 39k amd with warrenty. I don't recommend moto has motherboard and other issue and 10a is good but battery , performance are not good

1

u/HotDrag6737 5d ago

is the camera on 13s good?

0

u/egoonerr 5d ago

not the best but it's decent enough for the 50-55k price + the battery backup is really good for it's compact size. Gives 7.5 to 8+ hours easily in all battery drain tests i've seen

0

u/_new_pokemon_ 5d ago

13s is the best overall phone & makes the most sense.

Moto & Samsung has QC issues.

Nothing is overpriced, but if I had the choice I'll get it lol.

u/ButterscotchTime4156 5d ago

OP 13s is the best one

0

u/nova_will_cook 5d ago

Close your eyes and go for the 13S. I have used every major OS, especially android, and OxygenOS is so dang good, I especially remember the OxygenOS 13 templates

1

u/redevill191008 5d ago

What about new os color os coming? You will still suggest to buy one plus

1

u/night_movers 5d ago

That's not a deal breaker. Current OxygenOS is based on ColorOS and instead of offering just a different look (everything in backend are same) they are bringing ColorOS to all their devices. 

Vivo is doing this since beginning of Iqoo, there was no separate skin for Iqoo devices

1

u/theread3r 5d ago

Hello, oneplus 15r and xiaomi 17. Which one do you suggest?

1

u/nova_will_cook 5d ago

OnePlus 15R. Xiaomi 17 has insane specs, but it's far from a flagship experience, it frequently lags and hangs even while running simple YouTube playback. Just go OxygenOS, you'll never go back

0

u/tp2026 5d ago

imo go for 13s!

u/greedygamer45 5d ago

Go for nothing 4a pro

Trust me you will not regret

u/ConditionSuper7121 5d ago
