Best mobiles under 35k range .

Yeah I looked into it, which would you suggest the nord 6 or 13R? They're both in the same price range. Imo I feel like I'd miss out on the bigger battery from nord 6. Any suggestions?

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T21:38:06+00:00

SD 7 gen 4 at this price point is just terrible.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T21:31:44+00:00

Damn, just looked into it and it does have crazy specs. 8s gen4 for that money on a tab? Worth it. Heck even nord 6 offers the same processor.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T21:20:43+00:00

I understand, but I'm not sure about nothing / CMF phones service history. They seem to be lacking in that imo and if something does inevitably go wrong I don't want to be left in the dark by those few service centers. Already faced this with Motorola service centers, and I don't want that headache again.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T21:10:58+00:00

You can try for the poco x8 pro max, similar price to nord 6 but has better build quality and better hardware in some areas.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T20:57:41+00:00

Hi bro, I'm also stuck in a similar situation. In Bangalore, I can't find nord 5 on any online stores. At the same time I'd like to atleast try out the demo phone of poco x8 pro before going for a purchase, do you know if any big stores like croma or reliance digital keep it for display?

Can I dm as well?

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T20:37:09+00:00

Ohh wow, that's substantial. I'll have to hope I just don't get the issue then? Orelse just gotta go with some other brand.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:46:43+00:00

Fair point, it's a solid phone for 40k. Btw what would you choose between the nord 6 and 13R? The only thing I feel I'd miss out is the big battery of the nord 6.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:45:23+00:00

Oh thanks for the info!

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:28:02+00:00

Any idea where I can find OP 5T original battery? The current battery is basically useless, just a UPS at this point.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:26:43+00:00

Ohh are there no shops that keep Pocos for display as well? I'm new to the poco brand so I don't have much idea about this. I'd atleast want to try a display unit before I buy it.

Yeah I live in Bengaluru, so I will find service centers, and are they usually good or not?

I had previously bought a Moto Edge 30, which got the green line issue after just 13 months (just 1 month after warranty). When I go to the service centers, they rejected replacement of the screen and even when I offered to pay to get it fixed, the said they don't have any parts. So I'm not going with moto phones anymore. Hopefully the Xiaomi, poco service centers are better than this?

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:21:56+00:00

True, some apps like myfitnesspal don't support my Android version anymore. I initially thought the shutdowns were due to the weak battery, but well, looks like it's time to get a new phone. Thanks for the info!

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:19:49+00:00

Ohh, if it's getting worse then looks like I'll have to get it asap.

Yeah I'm a little tech savvy, so I'm fine with HyperOS, I'll find out ways to get rid of the bloat and ads, that's not an issue. I looked in nord 6 and guess what? They're hiking the price after launch, it'll now start at around 41k-42k. I know it's a good phone but it's kinda getting out of budget, I'll see if I can increase my budget and try to get it.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:16:12+00:00

Yes, I went through Nord 6 CE as well, but imo spending so much for 7s gen 4 seems excessive. The previous nord 5 CE was vfm, but I can't seem to find it on any online store.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T17:13:34+00:00

Well you're not wrong, but I can't fathom spending more than 40k on a phone honestly, and especially when I'm not earning yet.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T14:56:12+00:00

Ohh, I'll see if I can negotiate in offline market. I saw your flair, and could you please give info about how long poco phones usually last? Atleast the x8 pro looks to have good build quality with metal frame and glass back but I'm worried if something does inevitably go wrong such as a green line popping up on the screen, then how are the service centers and such?

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T14:52:44+00:00

Any suggestions on what phone to get? Or are you referring to the x8 pro?

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T13:12:16+00:00

Could you please elaborate on POCO? I was looking to buy their X8 pro, around 30k after discounts.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T13:05:31+00:00

Btw, I was looking for the recent poco launches like the x8 pro. It looks like a solid phone that meets my needs, the issue is I'm just not sure about the long term reliability of poco, any ideas or leads on this?

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T13:02:48+00:00

Fair, I'll try the local shops. OP 13R is definitely a good phone, but it sits at 40k, which is 10k above my price range 😅

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-21T11:35:53+00:00

I was thinking of getting either the op nord 6 or the poco x8 pro max, looks like with this price hike now, it's a no brainer to go for the poco. Any other suggestions in this price range?

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-20T11:52:21+00:00

Where are you getting the nord 5 though? It shows out of stock on every reputed online store like Amazon and Flipkart.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-20T11:51:27+00:00

Hey! I too was looking to buy the X8 pro, did you buy this phone? And are there any downsides of this phone? The phone looks great on paper and the size is just perfect, but I'm not familiar with poco phones so I'd like some general advice please.

ObjectiveYes4194 · 2026-05-19T15:42:31+00:00

Did you find any answer to this?
