Huawei Honour 6

Huawei's flagship phone honour 6 sure does bring some honour to the company.The device runs on 1.7GHz octa core processor backed by 3GB RAM and 16GB internal memory.The device runs smoothly with any lag.The device boast's a 1080P screen and  a full day 3000mAh battery.The UI is Emotion UI which is pretty sweet.The UI is based on Android 4.4.4(Kitkat).The also has 13 MP rear shooter with 5MP front shooter which is ideal for selfie's.All in all this is a great device and for a price of  16,999 INR this surely beats others.

HTC Desire 816G

This is another great device from a great company.The desire 816G is the younger brother of Desire 816.The Desire 816 houses 1.5 GHz quad-core processor with 1GB RAM and 8Gb internal memory.

The device boast's a 13MP primary camera with 5MP secondary camera which is capable of clicking pretty good pictures.The BlinkFeed UI based on android 4.4.4 makes use of the 1GB pretty nicely and we did not notice any lag.It also has all day battery of 2600mAh.The device would best suit in the hands of camera enthusiasts.The device is currently being sold at 16,660 INR

Samsung Galaxy E7

The Samsung galaxy E7 is a great phone with an excellent camera.The device runs on 1.2 GHz quad-core CPU backed by 2GB RAM and 16GB internal memory.The device follows the old Samsung's tradition of providing a great camera in this price range.The device boast's a 13MP rear shooter with 5MP selfie pictures.The device has anHD screen and an all day battery of 2950mAh capacity.Touch Wiz UI looks great and utilises the 2GB RAM proficiently.This is definitely the phone for outdoor enthusiasts with a keen liking for photography.

Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML

The Zenfone 2 is the flagship device of Asus. The ZE551ML model is the big brother to ZE550ML model.The device boasts 2.3 GHz Intel Z3580 quad-core chipset backed by 4GB RAM(ya! you read it right) with 32GB internal memory.The device handles most of the computing task without even breaking a sweat.The Zen UI looks great.The camera is a 13MP rear shooter and 5MP front shooter powered by PixelMaster technology which takes pretty good pictures.It supports NFC and quick charging technology to charge a 3000mAH battery.This is surely a beast priced at 19,999INR.

HTC Desire 820S

The 820S is a good phone with a great phone.The device is powered by 1.7GHz octa core processor together with 2GB RAM and 16GB internal memory the device boast a 13MP rear shooter and 8MP front shooter which takes great pitchers.The device has  a 5.5 inch 720p display the device houses  a 2600mAh battery which partnered with BlinkFeed runs the phone through a whole day.I would recommend this device to people who want a great selfie phone together with whole day battery.The device is currently being sold for 19,999 INR which is surprising considering the brand and the features.

Samsung Galaxy A3

The Samsung galaxy A3 is the first device of the A series .The one thing new in the A series is that it has a full metal body.The device houses a 1.3GHz quad-core with 1GB RAM and 16GB internal memory.The device has a 1900mAh battery which barely lasts a day.The device also has 8MP rear camera with 5MP front camera the camera clicks pretty decent photos.At the price of 18,100 INR I don't thin the specs justify it.But,I would like to recommend this to a person who loves metal phones.

Sony Xperia T2 Ultra

The Sony Xperia T2 Ultra is device only made for big hands.With a 6 inch screen the device has a resolution of only 720p.The device runs on 1.4GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 backed by 1GB RAM and 8GB internal memory.The device boast's a 13MP rear camera with Sony's patented Exmor Sensor.Surprisingly the device has only 1.1 MP front camera so this device was not made for selfie addicts.The UI is good and makes use of the RAM pretty neatly.The device also houses a 3000mAh battery which lasts the phone whole day.At last I would suggest that only people with camera addiction and BIG HANDS buy this as the 6-inch screen can be a problem sometimes.The device is currently selling at 19,488 INR.

OnePlus One

This OnePlus One is a revolutionary device.It runs on 2.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 backed by 3GB RAM and 16GB/64GB internal storage.It is fitted with a 13MP rear camera with Sony Exmor IMX214 Sensor.The front camera is a 5MP shooter.The camera is one its biggest strengths apart from magnificent CPU and RAM.The device has a 5.5-inch device with a resolution of 1920-1080p.The device also has a gigantic 3100mAh battery which runs a whole with a breeze. The device originally ran on CynogenOS but now is being run on Hydrogen OS which is based on 4.4.4, the lollipop upgrade being just around the corner.I would seriously recommend this device to power users who wanna be in front of their smartphone the whole day.The only flaw in this nearly perfect device is the it storage.The 16GB version is currently being sold at 18,998 INR and the 64GB version is being sold at 21,998 INR.

Well that wrap's up our this week's buying guide.For the price to performance ratio the Huawei Honour 6 beats every other phone out there in this price range.On the second place we have OnePlus One only due to its storage restrictions and on the third we have Asus Zenfone 2.Next week we will see what great devices do we see in the price range of 20,000 INR to 25,000 INR.
