More than an entry-level smartphone should the new cell phone be able to do it, but not cost a lot? We show the best smartphones up to 300 Euro.
Even some 100 – Euro Smartphone now has a surprising amount of technology to offer, like our guide: How many smartphones are there by 100 Euro shows impressively. Nevertheless, modern mid-range cell phones can do a lot more, but buyers have to spend a few more euros for a noticeable technological leap. This is noticeable in almost every area of the equipment. But be careful: As always, older models are attractively priced, but we recommend smartphones that are older than 2019 are to be bought only in exceptional cases. We have for this top 10 even only on devices 2020 – this is the only way to ensure a long update supply.
Display In the price range up to 300 Euro should be excluded from smartphones that offer less than Full-HD + as resolution. In addition, there are the first OLED screens in this price range, which score with a particularly good black value, high contrast, intense saturation and excellent viewing angle stability. In addition, there are now more and more models with a higher refresh rate of 90 or even 120 Hertz on the market. This means that content can be played back even more smoothly. Currently under 300 Euro but mainly LCDs with a higher Hertz number to be found, OLEDs still have 60 Hertz. In our display compendium we give a precise overview of screen technologies and resolutions.
Storage For the main memory, 6 GB should be the lowest limit be in the internal memory 128 GByte – why accept less when there is so much problem under 300 euros there? A few models even offer 8 GB of RAM and / or 144 GByte expandable data memory.
Chipset Especially in the middle class, there are many smartphones with Mediatek chips that are now available but more and more models of chipsets from market leader Qualcomm. The Mediatek chips are usually quite competitive in terms of performance, but have disadvantages in terms of update supply and sometimes in terms of power consumption. In our opinion, there are no real reasons to avoid such models. If you want to be on the safe side, you can of course look out for smartphones with Qualcomm or Huawei chips. The “cheap manufacturers” like Spreadtrum can no longer be found in this price range, the same applies to chipsets with fewer than 8 CPU cores. Examples of reasonable chips are Mediatek Helio P 70 or G 90 T, Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 or 765 or the Huawei Kirin 802.
Camera The majority of smartphones up to 300 Euro comes to the customer with a quad cam, but interested parties must be attentive here. Because while top models beyond the 580 Euro meanwhile deliver a universally applicable package with main, wide-angle and telephoto lens as well as depth sensor, set in the one discussed here Many manufacturers still like to use macro lenses instead of telephoto lenses. To make matters worse, they are often coupled with a very low number of megapixels. These low-resolution macro cameras are usually hardly usable in everyday life, so that of the four cameras advertised, not three, but only two can really be used meaningfully. We have this topic in our budget phone with triple cam guide: More than a marketing gimmick? extensively illuminated.
Other equipment The new data standard 5G is up to 300 Euros are usually not represented in smartphones, but that should come stronger sooner or later. However, this is not yet necessary, as at least in Germany the network coverage with 5G is currently extremely patchy. Otherwise, mid-range smartphones now offer almost everything that the upper class has. This goes from fingerprint sensors on the screen to NFC, Bluetooth, WLAN and GPS to USB-C and fast charging functions. The limitations are often in the details. So far Wifi-6 has hardly found its way into the middle class up to 300 Euro, instead users with Wifi-5 ( 802. 11 ac) take preference. Waterproofness and wireless charging are also extremely rare.
Place 1: Realme X 50 5G The first place in our ranking is occupied by the Realme X 50 5G (test report). It’s not just the only model in our top 10, which despite the price is now just below 300 Euro masters the new radio standard 5G, but it is doing very well in all other respects. So that gives 6, 57 inch large IPS Display 120 pictures per second again, the model has a quad cam with up to 64 Megapixels as well as wide angle and telephoto lenses and it is made of the strong Snapdragon 765 G driven. 6GByte RAM, 128 GByte internal (expandable) memory and a 4200 mAh stronger Battery with 30 -Watt fast charging complete the great overall package. Android 10 is also included ex works, as is the case with almost all competitors in this list.
2nd place: Realme 6 Pro Also just below the 256 – The Realme 6 Pro has fallen (comparison test). When it comes to the screen, there are only a few differences to the first-placed sibling model, but the panel on the 6 Pro only manages 90 Hertz. The camera structure is also largely in agreement, again the manufacturer relies on a quad cam with up to 64 Megapixel, wide angle and telephoto lens. In contrast to the X 50 comes the realme 6 Pro with 3.5 millimeter connection and contrary to the Realme 6 (test report) it is powered by a Snapdragon 720 G driven. In addition, there is an impressive 8 GB of RAM and 122 GByte of expandable internal memory. The battery is with 4300 mAh slightly larger than the X 50, but loads just as quickly.
3rd place: Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite Xiaomi, which has often played at the top of our leaderboards in the last few months, “only” comes third with this update. The Xiaomi Mi 02 Lite (test report) offers for the first time in our top 10 an OLED display with HDR 10 + – Support, depending on personal taste, this can be more Its value as IPS with 90 or 120 Hz. But the model is clearly behind the camera. Although there is also a quad cam in the data sheet, it consists of 48 – Megapixel main camera and wide-angle, the rest consists only of macro and depth of field lens that are superfluous in our experience. In addition to the 3.5 millimeter lens, there is the infrared transmitter that is mandatory for Xiaomi models. The powerful Snapdragon serves as the drive 765 G, which is also in the first-placed Realme model. 6 GByte RAM and 122 GByte of expandable memory are otherwise standard in this price range. The 4160 mAh are only available with 20 Watt filled, that takes longer than with the competition.
4th place: Realme 7 Pro And another Realme model: The brand new Realme 7 Pro also shines with an OLED display and relies on Quad-Cam with up to 64 Megapixels. This time, however, there is only one wide angle, plus macro and depth of field sensors. A telephoto lens is unfortunately missing – that is in the price range up to 300 Euro however still mostly normal. The Realme 7 Pro is powered by a Snapdragon 720 G, which is flanked by 8 GB of RAM. The 128 GB of internal memory can be expanded, as is almost always the case with Android models. A highlight of the new model is the battery with 4500 mAh starting with 65 Watt can be charged quickly.
5th place: Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Xiaomi is really mixing up the market with the Poco range. The Poco X3 NFC (test report) costs well below 300 Euro and is the cheapest model in our current top 10 – and yet it is not in last place. Instead in the middle: No wonder with an almost 6.7 inch IPS display with 120 – Hz playback and 64 – Megapixel Quad Cam – even if it unfortunately also consists of macro and depth of field sensor. When it comes to the drive, however, the smartphone is back at the top: The Snapdragon 732 G cannot keep up with top models, but it ensures very good performance in everyday life. The chip is supported by 6 GByte RAM, in the version described here everything is written with 128 GByte internal memory combined. 5160 mAh ensure good stamina and thanks to 33 – Watt fast charging the battery is filled again.
Place 6: Motorola One Fusion + With the Motorola One Fusion +, the manufacturer has made a good hit. The 6.5 inch screen represents HDR 10 – content, the Quad-Cam snaps pictures with up to 64 Megapixels. The wide angle is also useful – in contrast to macro and depth of field sensors. A Snapdragon 730 provides a lot of power, with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GByte internal memory buyers are on the safe side. The battery is with 5000 mAh quite persistent, reloading works with 15 Watts but only partially fast.
Place 7: Vivo Y 70 6, 44 Inch OLED – that sounds good. Such a screen is in the Vivo Y 65, a main camera is also included 48 Megapixels. Unfortunately, the triple cam is flanked by macro and depth sensors, and usable lenses such as wide-angle or even tele-optics are unfortunately missing. The Snapdragon 665 in the smartphone is no longer one of the latest chips, but still does a very good job and comes to the customer with 8 GB of RAM. For data stand 128 GByte of internal memory available – of course, expandable. With 33 watt is of the 4100 mAh strong battery right again
