The sub-20K price bracket is filled with smartphones that offer the best value for money. However, if you are interested in photography and Rs. 20,000 is your budget, these are the devices you should be looking for. These eight smartphones offer the best image quality that you can get in this budget. Some of these smartphones even shoot as good as flagship devices. Here are the best camera phones under 20000 in India.
The XIaomi Mi A2 is hands down the best camera phone you can buy under Rs 20000, It comes with a dual 12+20MP sensor at the back with f/1.8 aperture and 1.25um pixel pitch. The specialty about the secondary camera is that it can bin four pixels into one to create well-lit, detailed and vibrant low-light shots. The results are quite nice and is far ahead of the what other phones in that price range can do. The Mi A2 also has a consistent portrait mode that blurs the background without making it look artificial.
