There are number of good phones in this range which make everybody confused and helpless.  Don’t worry now, I am here to help you out. I have written the latest list of 5 Best Android Phones under 20000 Rs. for the month of May. Read it and compare the phones and choose the best one for you.

This is really the most competitive price range for smartphones. There are some amazing phones out there which could not make into the top 5 but are very good. All the phones in this list are above 19,000 Rs. So if you want a  phone around 17,000 then, Sony Xperia SP is the best. At the range of 16,000 Rs. if you need a high performing phone which can handle gaming too, go with Xolo Q3000 and if you want a phone with latest Android Kitkat and good overall performance with good design, go with LG L90 Dual.

Last month hundreds of readers of this blog had commented and asked which phone they should choose among the crowded market. Which has made me better understand the requirements and view point of the buyers. So I am trying to make this list even easier for you by giving you appropriate information. You are always welcome to ask your queries.

1. Samsung Galaxy Grand 2:

Launched in January, this is the best phone around 20,000 Rs. It is a mix of good performance with the trust of a reliable and popular international brand with good service. After the success of Grand, Samsung has launched it with grand size of 5.25 inches and a 1.2 GHz Quad core processor unlike Grand. It has definitely repeated the success of Grand. It has got overall very good specs. If you want a good phone with normal usage like everyday calling, gaming, music, videos, etc then this is the best phone to have.

 2. Sony Xperia M2 Dual:

It was the much awaited phone of Sony. It has amazing looks and a decent solid design. Sony has launched it at a price very close to the very popular Xperia SP. Although one can debate over which one has got better specs among the two but a bigger screen and the recent launch makes the M2 a good choice. Many people do not like the Samsung phones for them and for those who want an amazing design this phone is best. It has got a very good camera and good performance. It has got most of the things which one aspires for with a stunning design.

 3. Micromax Canvas Knight:

Although, at 20,000 Rs. you can get the phones with very high performance  unlike the above two phones. Lets start with the Micromax Canvas Knight. This latest flagship device from Micromax offers every high end specifications at less than half of the price of what Samsung, Sony & HTC offer. But don’t just flow away with the specs, its performance is very good but it has small issues like the big 16 MP could have been better, some users are facing a problem that it gets heated up quickly while playing games and the battery life is average. Although it has some issues but it is certainly the best phone in overall comparison as it offers everything at a cheaper price. Those who want high performance with their smartphone, must go with the Knight!
