Above 50,000
This category is where all the top giants from smartphone world showcase their prowess. This year, the competition in this segment got fierce with incredible handsets from many brands like Huawei Mate 20 Pro, iPhone XS, Google Pixel 3XL and Samsung Galaxy Note 9.  When it comes to performance, every phone mentioned works swiftly without any stutter; battery life, camera capability and Operating System is what differentiates these phones from each other. iPhone XS’ camera and performance are truly remarkable but it lags behind others due to poor battery life. Apart from battery life, the price tag of iPhone XS in India might let you change your decision if you aren’t a hardcore iOS user. iPhone XR (Rs 76,900) is another option at much cheaper price than its Apple siblings but misses out on some features but its Android counterparts have those features.
Pixel 3 XL has the cleanest software skin you’ll see on an Android phone, its powerful, offers capable battery life and cameras are just magical. But its price tag is again something which leaves buyers in dilemma. Huawei Mate 20 Pro and Samsung Galaxy Note 9 offer perfect balance of performance, battery life and good cameras on top of that is their reasonable pricing.
