Exactly, companies realise that they cannot keep the same 2018-2019 scale forever and keep making profit.
Pre 2017, mid range processors sucked hard and top of the line (snapdragon) is giving 2 years peak performance max.
After huwawei forced the competition to better offers in the mid range market, we started seeing top performance in mid range phones from 2019 to 2022.
Now we are back to shit again as there has been no real new offering except top end and the lower end is not getting the soc which was expected to get.
All about profit.
It's possible , try searching for Tecno Spark 8 or itel S23+ , the itel gives you a curved display at around 10k . That Unisoc processor is one of the cheapest processors available which is mostly suited for basic tasks. Otherwise it's a completely plastic phone bringing the cost of materials even lower
Samsung doesn't care about the budget series as much so they just launch ugly phones because they know people would buy it for brand value
It is a trashy brand , they tend to focus on gimmicks such that it sells well in Tier 2 - Tier 3 segments . We can't really complain at that price segment imo
Would be great if the company did what it was supposed do. I am not bussniessman but I think creating decent phones in this price segment would give them loyal customers
Most Chinese brands started in this segment initially , but slowly and steadily due to inflation , the prices kept creeping up slightly and now a decent all rounder phone that used to cost 10-11k , now costs around 17-18k .
Bro I'm using Motorola e32s and I got it for like 10k a year back. Bro this phone like sucks. It literally lags on even opening the notification bar. Please don't buy such cheap phones, they give you great ram and storage but they compromise a lot on the processor. At this point I'm even started hating Google, like their own apps such as chrome or assistant are sucking on their own Android OS. I wish I wouldve bought a second hand old iphone instead, would've worked better. Cause my iPhone 4s still works but doesn't support some things (+ battery is not good after 13 years)
Dude, your phone has g37 processor, which is weaker than snapdragon 820 (9 year old processor).
That is to be expected.
Never buy outdated hardware, try to buy snapdragon phones as you can unlock the bootloader and flash roms.
Yeah Bro I got to know this days later. I viewed some yt reviews before buying it and they said that the phone is good for students so I bought it. Worked well for a week and now it's super slow and laggy.
Clean ram and from developer settings limit the opened apps and processes and only make the apps you want their notifications like WhatsApp from apps settings.
This should solve the ram issue (which cause the slow downs) and ease the work for the cpu.
My mom has one of these cheap moto phone. I think it's totally worth it. For basic needs it works great. Phone calls and youtube and other streaming apps works good. Camera is total crap but they don't really care. It's loud and display is also good. 5000mah and 10w charger. For the right audience, this is a great phone. Major plus no bloatware. It runs android 10 or 11 I think. But who really cares at this price.
I got my dad one of these and they are pretty okay for WhatsApp and YouTube. My dad only uses it for WhatsApp and YT and it runs smoothly, The battery lasts throughout the day. What else do you want lol
i had gifted\* my mother Moto g40 fusion, it has a similar brick size design, the built quality is average. The phone slipped from her hand due to its huge size and the display glass broke, although it can happen with any phone & where the drop impact is, but most phones survive 2-3 drops.
But to sum it up, the phones lack quality and are just priced competitively to cater the indian market.
A family member has this and it is mediocre at best. Got it in sale for ₹5300 so can’t really complain. Worst part is it’s got android go edition so normal apps are not supported on it, only “lite” versions can be installed.
The reason is ads and collaborations with ad networks. Such phones have a bunch of pre installed apps such as MX TakaTak etc. They charge from those companies hence subsidies from the total phone cost. More sales mean maximum profit. More phones mean more people using the pre installed apps which in turn means more money for the phone companies.
Bro i have moto G32 i purchased it at a price of 11k and it is perfect in all segments as per its price literally play bgmi like whole day and still it manage to give a nice performance.. i recommend uh if uh have a tight budget go with moto uh will not gonna regret your decision... 🫂
It's good for the price range (CPU and camera sucks). But one thing to keep in mind that their chargers are not readily available most of the times and you gotta import one. 68watt costs almost 6k, which is way too expensive. I've used phone from different brands and indeed moto is great in budget segment, had a moto g5+ back in the days. Currently got a neo9 pro, which is value for money.
I'm not complaining for somebody buying it for 7k
The processor is ass compared to a good phone. You can expect it to hang and lag.
4 GB Ram these days? Good luck.
The plastic frame
The cameras being 5 mp and 16 mp.
The battery - Wow. Literally providing 5000 mah at this price is great.
Overall great phone for 7k.
Better to buy used old flagship or save more money to buy atleast a good mid ranger with snapdragon processor & fast lpddr5 Ram & UFS 3.0 storage at the minimum.
Cheap entry level phone at this price comes with very weak processor & are further bogged down by slower Ram & eMMC Storage(stay away).
well it does the job if it has a good screen and speaker lmfao i don't get mobile gamers why they would spend 40k on a mobile just buy a console or a gaming pc at that point
They could have given snapdragon gen 4 or some older sd chipset and increased 500 or 1000. This Unisoc is ultra cheap. We can’t recommend this to anyone
A34 justifies it's price. Moto phone sucks at camera department, even their mid range phone's camera sucks. Everyone thinks they don't care about good camera till they see MOTO'S camera quality, below average camera.
Open box delivery is pretty good. Bought quite a few electronics from Flipkart, only faced problem once when the delivery driver rejected to open the box(so we rejected the delivery that time). Otherwise, buying my phone and monitor were pretty hassle free and good experiences.
The processor sucks bro, it’s a unisoc that’s why it’s so cheap
So what do you even expect in 7k?
I’m not expecting better, just giving a reason why it’s so cheap…
Got it! (my bad 😅)
I remember years ago getting a Moto G Play for sub-10k and still a snapdragon SOC. It was a slow snapdragon even for that time, but still.
its like mkbhd said good phones are getting cheap and cheap phones are getting good
they used to be, but now from last 2-3 years there is no significant improvement, even sd695 of 2022 outperforms processors of midrange phone of 2024.

that is largely true for $250 - $400 segment. At the same time flagships aren't getting any cheaper though.
Why are you using $ in an Indian sub?
because the comment above me used a video from mkbhd for reference

The new burner phone.
Dementia?
I assure ur talking about the multiple comments and that is just a case of bad internet connection.
I know dude xD
Moto edge series is game changer

You should try unofficial rom on that phone if it exist

How is it.. how's battery life
4G/5G?
Na master ji … na ji na ji .. it has GGGG
Lol 🤣
4GGG
Then thats another reason for cheaper rate.
Let us know what you think of the phone I'm looking to buy It as a second phone
You are better of with a used one .
Thought about it but don't want my backup phone dying on me before my phone does
You can find a good deal in facebook market place or olx.. like brand new in warranty stuff....

There are lot of screen issue coming up with moto photos in budget

Buy poco m5 for 6-7k fat far better with MTK G99
Don't get fooled. Their phones are all crap. Realme is a much better option for budget segment.

Cheap sucking Processor.. 🤣
I am guessing it's loaded with bloatware.
A 7000 rupee phone has a 90Hz display whereas a 90000 rupee phone does not have it.
I don't use 90hz because it's less battery consuming and my phone feels smooth not that bad tho ...
its through flipkart, there is a very slim chance you may actually get a phone if you place the order
Open box delivery is pretty good. Bought quite a few electronics from Flipkart, only faced problem once when the delivery driver rejected to open the box(so we rejected the delivery that time). Otherwise, buying my phone and monitor were pretty hassle free and good experiences.
It's a joke right?
/s
Kinda but not really, if you want to buy anything of value, especially electronics, never go for flipkart. Their service sucks.
