Jio phone? or Micromax?

All good phone brands at such cheap prices are Chinese, if not, then Samsung.

Get a good phone & follow guides available easily online on how to almost remove all ads + bloatware. Spend 30mins doing these & use a good phone. Heck, I did these even on my S20FE.

Moto G52 & Samsung F23 5G gets my recommendations. Advantages of former are better screen & stock OS (subjective if this is an advantage as it is not an advantage for me personally, but is an advantage for most who don't wanna tinker much). Samsung has 5G & a much more powerful chip.

I fell Samsung get slower as time pass. Ya that;s correct we can remove ads n all. What you think about Mi 9 Active? Its better then G52 or F23?

Do NOT buy Exynos Samsung phones. I used an S835 S8 for 3 years, now using S20FE 5G for 1 year. Honestly, works great.

Redmi 9 Activ - seriously, there are better Xiaomi phones than that for under 15k. Most under 10k phones are much worse than 15k phones. Like a Poco M4 5G at 11k is far superior to that Redmi.

Anyways, my recommendations stay the same as earlier. From Xiaomi, Poco X4 5G seems good at 17k, has 120Hz AMOLED as an advantage over F23, offers & exchange will bring price close to 15k. S695 performs similar to S750/S765. It boots android 11 though, so likely 13 is its last update vs the other 2 among which F23 will surely get 14.

G52 doesn't have 5G. How long till we have 5G network here in India as mainstream?
Yes, G52 doesn't. 5G will launch soon in 10 biggest cities in India, so better to buy 5G if you can. But still, initially, it might be expensive, so time will tell how the implementation goes. I think companies are targeting 2024 for pan-India coverage.
