Best smartphones you can get under Rs 10,000

New Delhi: India's smartphone market witnessed a massive boom in 2013 as consumers rapidly shifted from feature phones to touch-screen internet-ready devices offered at low prices. According to data from research firm IDC, smartphone sales in the country grew almost three-fold to over 44 million in 2013, buoyed by launch of low-end, cost competitive devices by international and local vendors, which are further narrowing the price gaps that exist between feature phones and smartphones.Clearly, to keep the momentum going, smartphone makers are now engaged in a race to the bottom with feature-rich phones designed to appeal to people with low budgets. This means, with a budget of Rs 10,000 or less, you can now get a smartphone with the right mix of speed, better display, software and long battery life. The dropping average sale price of smartphones is the biggest boon to smartphone in India and other developing countries and hopefully this trend will continue in the current year.Here in the list below we have mentioned top 15 smartphones that you can purchase for a budget of Rs 10,000 or less:Samsung Galaxy S Duos Display: 4-inch WVGA TFT touchscreenResolution: 480 x 800Processor: 1.2GHz dual-core processor (unspecified chipset)5 MP rear camera with LED flashVGA front-facing cameraOS: Android 4.2 Jelly Bean with TouchWiz UI768MB RAMInternal memory: 4GB, expandable up to 64GB via microSD cardBattery capacity: 1500mAh batteryPrice: 9599 (as on flipkart)Panasonic T21 Display: 4.5-inch TFT touchscreenResolution: 1280 x 720 pixelsProcessor: 1.2 GHz, dual-core processor8 MP primary camera2 MP secondary camera OS: Android v4.1 (Jelly Bean)1 GB RAMInternal memory: 4 GB, expandable up to 32 GBBattery capacity: 1700 mAh, Li-IonPrice: Rs. 8949 (as on flipkart)Spice Stellar Pro Mi535Display: 5.3-inch LCD Capacitive TouchscreenResolution: 960 x 540 pixelsProcessor: 1.2 GHz, quad-core processor8 MP primary camera5 MP secondary camera OS: Android v4.2 (Jelly Bean)1 GB RAMInternal memory: 16 GB, expandable up to 32 GBBattery capacity: 2550 mAh, Li-PolymerPrice: Rs. 12999 (as on flipkart)iBall Andi 4.5P GlitterDisplay: 4.5-inch touchscreenResolution: 480 x 854 pixelsProcessor: 1.3 GHz8 MP primary cameraSecondary camera: Yes OS: Android v4.2512 MB RAMInternal storage: 4 GBBattery capacity: 1450 mAhPrice: Rs. 7499 (as on ebay)Xolo Q1010iDisplay: 5-inch IPSResolution: 1280 x 720 pixelsProcessor: 1.3GHz quad -core MediaTek MTK 6582 processor8 MP rear camera2 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.2 (Jelly Bean)1 GB RAMInternal storage: 8 GB, expandable up to 32 GBBattery capacity: 2250 mAhPrice: Rs. 13499 Nokia XDisplay: 4 Inch TouchscreenResolution: 480 x 800 pixelsProcessor: 1 GHz, Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Dual-core3 MP primary cameraOS: Nokia X Software Platform v1512 MB RAMInternal memory: 4 GB, expandable memory up to 32 GBBattery capacity: 1500 mAhPrice: Rs.7236 (as on flipkart)Nokia Lumia 525Display: 4 Inch TouchscreenResolution: 480 x 800 pixelsProcessor: 1 GHz, Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Dual-core5 MP primary cameraOS: Windows v81 GB RAMInternal memory: 8 GB, expandable memory up to 64GBBattery capacity: 1430 mAhPrice: Rs.9084 (as on flipkart)Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2Display: 4 Inch TouchscreenResolution: 480 x 800 pixelsProcessor: 1.2 GHz, Dual-core processor5 MP primary camera0.3 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.2 (Jelly Bean)768 MB RAMExpandable memory:32 GBBattery capacity: 1500 mAhPrice: Rs.8345 (as on amazon)Micromax A111 Canvas DoodleDisplay: 5.3 Inch TouchscreenResolution: 480 x 854 pixelsProcessor: 1.2 GHz, quad-core processor8 MP primary camera2 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.1.2 (Jelly Bean)512 MB RAMInternal memory: 1.22 GB, expandable up to 32 GBBattery capacity: 2100 mAh, Li-Polymer,Price: Rs.8100 (as on amazon)Gionee Pioneer P3Display: 4.3-inch TouchscreenResolution: 480 x 800 pixelsProcessor:1.3 GHz Cortex-A7, Quad-core processor5 MP primary camera0.3 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.2(Jelly Bean)512 MB RAMInternal memory:4 GB,expandable up to 32 GBBattery capacity: 1700 mAhPrice: Rs.6762 (as on ebay)Micromax Canvas EGO A113Display: 4.7-inch TouchscreenResolution: 960 x 540 pixelsProcessor:1.2 GHz, quad-core processor8 MP primary camera2 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.1.2 (Jelly Bean)1 GB RAMExpandable storage: 32 GBBattery capacity: 2000 mAhPrice: Rs.9999 (as on amazon)Spice Coolpad 2 Mi-496Display: 4.5-inch LCD touchscreenResolution: 540 x 960 pixelsProcessor: 1.2 GHz, quad–core processor5 MP primary cameraOS: Android v4.1 (Jelly Bean)1 GB RAMExternal storage: 32 GBBattery capacity: 1700 mAhPrice: Rs. 9499 (as on flipkart)Xolo Q700Display: 4.5-inch LCD touchscreenResolution: 540 x 960 pixelsProcessor: 1.2 GHz, quad–core processor5 MP primary camera0.3 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.2 (Jelly Bean)1 GB RAMInternal storage: 4 GBBattery capacity: 2100 mAhPrice: Rs. 8691 (as on ebay)Lenovo Ideaphone A706Display: 4.5 InchResolution: 480 x 854 pixelsProcessor: 1.2 GHz Cortex-A5, quad- core processor5 MP primary camera0.3 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.1 (Jelly Bean)1 GB RAMInternal memory: 4 GB, expandable up to 32 GB Battery: 2000 mAh, PolymerPrice: Rs 9569 ( as on amazon)Gionee Pioneer P2Display: 4 InchResolution: 480 x 800 pixelsProcessor: 1.3 GHz, dual-core processor5 MP primary camera0.3 MP secondary cameraOS: Android v4.2 (Jelly Bean)RAM: 512 MBExpandable storage: 32 GB via micro SD Card Battery:1700 mAh, PolymerPrice: Rs. 5840 ( as on flipkart)
