Right now, many 5G phones are available in the market. All devices are fall either premium segment or premium mid-range segment. Now, it looks soon affordable 5G devices will arrive in the market. This is because of recently announced Snapdragon 690 5G chipset. Snapdragon 600 series is known for its affordability. As Snapdragon 690 is part of the 6-series family of chipsets we can expect 5G phones under 15000 INR. Yes, you heard it right! OEMs including Nokia, LG and Motorola have said that future 5G devices will be available at an even more affordable price.
In India, telecommunications companies are still struggling to bring 5G technology. India isn’t ready but smartphone makers are already launching 5G phones. We have seen Realme X50 Pro 5G and iQOO 3 5G in India under the premium segment. But, don’t rush to buy a 5G device in India as there’s no 5G network yet. We can expect 5G networks in India by mid-2021. The best thing is once the 5G network goes live in India we will have many options to choose 5G phone across different budget segments.
5G Phones Under 15000 in India
If we talk about “5G mobile phone under 15000 segments” then there is not a single 5G device available right now. However, we can expect by early 2021 we will get a wide range of cheap 5G smartphones. At present, In China, Dimensity 820 powered Redmi 10X 5G with 6GB RAM and 64GB storage costs 1599 Yuan (approx. Rs 16,999). So, if Xiaomi announces Redmi 10X 5G in the Indian market then it may cost below 15000 rupees.
These OEMs will likely bring affordable 5G phones by early 2021
In India, both Redmi and Realme brand offer smartphones based on Qualcomm’s 600 series SoC at reasonably priced. To recall, Redmi Note 8 and Realme 5 devices are powered by Snapdragon 665 chipset. They are priced below Rs 10000. In China, we will likely see Snapdragon 690 powered Redmi and Realme devices below 1399 yuan (Rs 15000 approximately) in the second half of this year.
Juho Sarvikas, Chief Product Officer at HMD Global has also tweeted that Nokia is gearing up to launch a more affordable 5G smartphone. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 690 5G SoC from Qualcomm.
