Samsung continues to dominate the Indian smartphone market by offering reliable build quality, long-term software support, and user-friendly interfaces across its lineup—whether flagship or budget devices. If you’re planning to upgrade your current Samsung device or buy a new one without exceeding Rs 20,000, here are some of the best options currently available.
Galaxy F06
Launched last month, the Galaxy F06 is Samsung’s first-ever 5G phone under Rs 10,000. Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset, it features a 6.7-inch LCD display with HD+ resolution and runs on One UI 7 based on Android 15. The device promises 4 years of OS updates and security patches, a rare offering in this price segment.
The Galaxy F06 supports 12 5G bands and Carrier Aggregation, typically found in higher-priced smartphones. On the back, it sports a 50MP primary camera paired with a 2MP depth sensor. The base model with 4GB RAM is available for Rs 9,499, while the 6GB RAM variant is priced at Rs 10,999.

The Galaxy M16 features the same Dimensity 6300 chipset but offers a more refined experience with a 6.7-inch sAMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. It also includes a microSD card slot, a feature that is becoming increasingly rare in budget smartphones.
