The best smartphones under 10 thousand. Not without its downsides


If you have a budget of 10,000 rubles, what is the best smartphone to buy? Read the review about the best smartphones under 10,000 rubles. The golden mean of quality and characteristics.

A very frequent and relevant question, which, frankly speaking, is difficult to answer. And no, the point is not that this is a relatively small amount for which you can’t find something worthwhile, but rather the opposite - this price segment is simply inundated with really high-quality smartphones with a good camera, good sound, and the majority are concentrated here. Be that as it may, we decided to select the most popular phone models on the market in the price segment from 5,000 to 10,000 rubles, which best suit the price/quality ratio.

We took exactly the best-selling and most common solutions, so it is possible that we missed some smartphones with better characteristics, but less popular with us. We also looked at it separately, so we won’t delve into this segment. Well, now let’s move on to the rating of the best phones with a price up to 10,000 rubles.

Huge smartphones up to 10,000 rubles Oukitel U16 Max (phablet)

Cheap hulk. This is exactly how I want to describe this phablet. The name already suggests that it is big. And it does it honestly, and not like its 5-inch counterparts with flashy attachments. It says Max - get 6 inches. Yes, yes, we have one of the cheaper analogues of Mi Max from Xiaomi. The smartphone is really large, quite thick and heavy, so some users will find it uncomfortable to work with. However, as sales show, the model is very popular. And of course, considering the price tag of 7500-8000 rubles. One of best smartphones up to 10,000 rubles in 2017, it is made not only by the diagonal, but also by quite decent characteristics:

  • Current version
  • The matrix is ​​6”, but only - it won’t be enough, although you can use it
  • 13 and 5 MP modules are average, nothing more
  • Chipset –MTK6753 with 8 cores
  • 3 gigabytes of RAM, which is probably enough for everyone
  • The drive is designed for 32 GB, the same amount can be added via a memory card
  • A smartphone with a fairly large 4000 mAh battery, one charge of which, given the not the highest resolution, will last for 1-2 days

This is not the first time that Oukitel manages to make quite competitive products, but often something is missing. In the case of the U16, Max lets down the resolution. Still, at 6 inches FullHD would look more organic. Be that as it may, with such a diagonal in the price segment up to 10,000 rubles in 207 it will not be possible to find something better, and therefore the phone deserves a place in the ranking.

ZTE Blade V7

From the huge ones we move on to more compact options. The price of the ZTE Blade V7 is just close to the maximum amount of 10,000 rubles that we will spend today on a brand new smartphone. This model represents ZTE's budget line, but the phone's characteristics are comparable to many mid-segment solutions. Firstly, the Blade V7 is presented in a metal case. Secondly, the smartphone has a FullHD display with high pixel density. Thirdly, it is ready to boast of quite decent hardware for this class.

  • We have Android version 6
  • 5.2” IPS screen with FullHD – an ideal ratio for many to enjoy the picture
  • A pair of 13+8 MP cameras that can take decent pictures
  • MT6753 chip, as in the previous smartphone
  • 2+16 GB – I want more, but I can live with this volume
  • A 2540 mAh battery is not the best choice for the stated characteristics

As with the U16 Max, the downside of this smartphone comes down to resolution. Only here it would be possible not to make it so high, since it is used weak battery. And so, there are problems with autonomy, but they are not critical, since ZTE is doing a lot of work to optimize the hardware and software. In general, the ZTE Blade V7 is a good inexpensive phone that in 2017 you can easily buy for up to 10,000 rubles.

Umidigi Crystal


Recently, the shelves of online stores have been replenished with the cheapest frameless smartphone, which, at a cost of 8000-9500 rubles, sells like hot cakes. Despite the low price tag, the Umidigi Crystal impresses not only with the absence of frames around the screen, but also with fairly powerful hardware, as well as a dual main camera. If you were planning to get closer to smartphones of this kind, then Umidigi allows you to do this as cheaply as possible. What else will the new product attract the buyer:

  • Android Nougat as OS
  • 5.5” IPS panel with FullHD, by the way, from Sharp, the company that was the first to show a smartphone without frames
  • A pair of 13+5 megapixel modules are announced as the main camera
  • 5 megapixel front camera
  • Overclocked MT6750T chip with 8 cores
  • 4+64 GB of memory – these are the budget frameless smartphones these days
  • 3000 mAh battery

Of course, the smartphone deserves its place in the ranking of the best under 10,000 rubles for 2017. Another thing is that it hasn’t really been tested yet, since it came out relatively recently. However, given the zeal with which users are buying up Umidigi Crystal, I really want to believe that we will get a truly decent inexpensive smartphone without frames.

Nokia 3


The legendary company returned to our market, bringing a budget smartphone under 10,000 rubles, which tried to become the best in 2017. He failed to become the most popular, but many will like him. The main drawback of the Nokia 3 is its slightly overpriced price. Yes, this is a really well-built phone with quite acceptable characteristics, but clearly not for a price tag of almost 10,000 rubles. Even without Nokia, there are plenty of contenders for the title of best smartphone, and with more impressive specifications. Be that as it may, if you are not one of those who scrupulously sort through offers from Chinese stores one after another, but are used to buying at domestic points of sale, then Nokia 3 can be a very worthy option.

  • Android Nougat
  • Compact now 5 inches, HD
  • Budget cameras 8+8 megapixels
  • Budget processor MT6737 - many Chinese companies use this processor to sell smartphones under 5,000 rubles
  • 2+16 GB – also budget volumes
  • 2630 mAh battery - not much on paper, but enough if the “filling” is not the most powerful

Nokia 3 could become the best smartphone under 10,000 rubles in the domestic market in terms of price/quality ratio, but without much effort you can find a more productive analogue. Meanwhile, the Nokia logo on the back and the very high quality of workmanship are captivating.

Meizu M5

And here is one of the main competitors of Nokia 3. It was shown a little earlier, and by today it has become one of the most popular smartphones in the price category up to 10,000 rubles. Moreover, the younger version with 2+16 GB of memory can be purchased on Aliexpress for only 6,000 rubles. The phone can also be found in offline stores in Russia, but you will have to pay at least 2000 more. Meizu M5 is a beautiful budget solution with compact dimensions that is ready to satisfy the needs of the vast majority of modern users. There are high-quality materials, decent hardware, decent cameras, as well as a comfortable Flyme shell.

  • Bye Android Marshmallow
  • 5.2”, IPS, 1280x720 pixels
  • 13+5 MP – good cameras with all the modes and effects that are popular today
  • MT6750 with 8 cores is an ideal solution for the budget class
  • There is a version with 2+16 GB, there is with 3+32 GB
  • 3070 mAh battery

Meizu M5 is equipped with a fingerprint sensor combined with a multifunctional Home button. There is a set of the most necessary sensors and wireless interfaces. The only noticeable drawback for some will be the polycarbonate body, which is not as durable as the metal used in the company's previous lines. But we are pleased with the abundance of color options, from white to mint. Meizu M5 deservedly takes its place in our today's list of the best inexpensive smartphones of 2017.

Again a model from . However, it no longer experiences problems with screen resolution or battery life. Well, what is there, we have one of the best smartphones under 10,000 rubles with an excellent 6000 mAh battery. The K6000 Pro is a large device housed in an all-metal body that feels comfortable in the hand, hinting at its high battery capacity. But the manufacturer focuses not only on autonomy. The K6000 Pro has powerful enough hardware so that the user does not experience problems with brakes in the newest games. Sufficient amounts of memory and the necessary wireless interfaces – the company’s most popular smartphone has all this.

  • Android Marshmallow, which is still relevant
  • Not a small 5.5” screen with FHD
  • A tandem of decent camera sensors of 13 and 5 megapixels that take very good pictures
  • Mid-level chipset MT6753 with a frequency of up to 1.3 GHz
  • 3+32 GB memory
  • Large 6000 mAh battery

If we talk about the disadvantages, the most noticeable is the weight. But, if you take into account the battery capacity, then you will have to come to terms with the dimensions and weight. Also, the Oukitel K6000 Pro, which comes in a white front panel, is annoying with its very wide bezels around the screen. Otherwise, an almost ideal smartphone under 10,000 rubles with good battery and good cameras.

Xiaomi Redmi 4X

Did you think we forgot about one of the most popular manufacturers in 2017? But no, we left Xiaomi phones for the best part. Here we have the most cheap smartphone manufacturer, which can be considered an alternative to Meizu M5.

There is an even cheaper Redmi 4A, but the difference in price is insignificant. It’s also a decent smartphone, but with a weaker chip and a plastic case. In our opinion, it is the Redmi 4X that looks more interesting.

The fact that we have one of the best phones of 2017 in terms of price/quality ratio is evidenced by the huge orders on Aliexpress - 15,000 from the most popular seller. Do you know which smartphone is selling even more actively? Another Xiaomi, about which below. What does Redmi 4X offer us:

  • Still current version Android with MIUI
  • Compact 5” display with HD
  • A pair of budget cameras with 13+5 megapixels - be that as it may, some of the best for the money
  • Quad-core Snapdragon 435 is the cheapest smartphone on this chip
  • 2 or 3 GB RAM/16 or 32 GB ROM
  • Capacious 4100 mAh battery

Xiaomi Redmi The 4X managed to become a budget killer in a matter of days after its release - in the lower class it is the most successful smartphone. He is not even devoid of such “tricks” of his elders Xiaomi models, like a fingerprint scanner and an aluminum body. The younger version of Redmi 4X will cost about 6,500-7,000 rubles – why isn’t it the best smartphone in terms of price/quality ratio in 2017?

Meizu U10

A beautiful smartphone for stylish people. Meizu U10 became one of the first smartphones on the market, which at a price of up to 10,000 rubles received a glass body. When you see a smartphone, you can’t tell that it costs about 8,000 rubles (in Russia it’s a little more expensive, but not more than 10,000 rubles). Chic design, complemented by high-quality materials, and a low price have made Meizu U10 a desirable phone for many users. The company didn’t skimp on other characteristics either:

  • Flyme shell based on Android 6.0
  • High-quality 5” matrix, 1280x720 pixels
  • Tandem of a pair of 13+5 MP cameras
  • MT6750 chip that can handle any task
  • Versions with 2+32 gigabytes or 3+32 are available to choose from
  • 2760 mAh battery – I would like something more substantial

Of the smartphones under 10,000 rubles reviewed in our rating, Meizu U10 is one of the cutest. It doesn't outperform its main competitors in synthetic benchmarks and doesn't boast better battery life, but it offers a beautiful, ergonomic body and premium design.

There is also an advanced Meizu version U20, which will cost a little more in our stores. It has a slightly more powerful processor, a larger screen (5.5 inches with FHD) and a larger battery. Externally, the smartphones are identical.

And before us is another new product, which appeared in the price segment up to 10,000 rubles in the summer of 2017. experimenting once again. This time, the initiatives of Honor Magic, which was presented in the flagship segment back in winter, are taken as a basis. Before us is the most beautiful smartphone of recent times, which has 8 rounded corners. It looks just great. But this phone will win your heart not only with its beauty. How about a 5050 mAh battery? Not bad, do you agree? When was the last time you saw something like this? stylish smartphone with a powerful battery. And other characteristics of an inexpensive smartphone are quite consistent with 2017:

  • Current
  • Serious 5.5-inch display, 1920x1080 pixels
  • A pair of cameras on the back side of 13+13 megapixels – decent parameters
  • 8-megapixel wide-angle front
  • Overclocked MTK6750T chip
  • 4+64 GB of memory is definitely enough
  • Well, the highlight of the program is the 5050 mAh battery

Let us immediately note that the smartphone has fast charging. So not only will you go a long time without recharging, but you can also fill the battery in a couple of hours. If you look at the number of sales, the Doogee BL5000 is one of the company’s most successful smartphones, naturally, after Frameless Mix. Will Doogee be on a higher level soon? For BL5000 in bright colors Chinese stores they are asking around 9,000-10,000 rubles.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X

Here it is - the best smartphone under 10,000 rubles in 2017. This phone is good in everything, from the screen to battery life. There's no game it can't handle, the Redmi Note 4X takes good photos, can go without recharging for several days, and the metal body doesn't make a squeak. The new Redmi Note has become noticeably prettier if we recall last year’s lineup. Black solutions have appeared; there is no longer a problem with wide black stripes around the screen. Overall, the best inexpensive smartphone.

  • Android Marshmallow enhanced with MIUI
  • 5.5” screen with FHD and scratch-resistant glass
  • Decent 13 and 5 MP camera sensors
  • Energy-efficient Snapdragon 625 octa-core chip
  • 3 or 4 GB RAM
  • 16/32/64 GB ROM – for every taste
  • 4100 mAh, providing good autonomy

Despite the large screen and capacious battery, Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X is quite compact and lightweight. I was not left without a fingerprint scanner, which is usually located on the back of the smartphone. Since the model is relatively new, it will definitely receive major update up to MIUI 9. Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X does not have any serious disadvantages, which is why this phone is the best with a price tag of 10,000 rubles.

Conclusion

As you can see, if you have 10,000 rubles, or even a smaller amount, you can pick up a very decent smartphone that will delight you with good cameras and will not let you down with autonomy. This segment, by the way, can be called the fastest growing. A huge number of third-tier companies mostly fill it. Interestingly, in 2017, in the range from 5,000 to 10,000 rubles, many solutions with the features of the latest flagships were presented. Well, we hope our small rating will help you choose a good and inexpensive smartphone.


The price category from 5,000 to 10,000 rubles is the most popular among Russian smartphone buyers, accounting for 33% of smartphones sold in Russia. For comparison: the share of smartphones from 10,000 to 15,000 rubles accounts for 13% of devices sold, the share of the middle price segment (15,000 - 20,000 rubles) - 7%, from 20,000 to 30,000 rubles - 9%, over 30 thousand rubles - 7%.

As we can see, the price category from 5,000 to 10,000 rubles is not only in the lead, but by a large margin. This is explained by the fact that with funds available to most, you can buy a smartphone, which is not suitable except for those who like to load it with heavy games or those who want to use a smartphone for taking very high-quality photos and videos. All other benefits modern smartphones, for example, a large screen with HD resolution, a fingerprint scanner, 2-3 gigabytes of RAM (enough for good performance), a powerful battery that allows you to not charge the phone for a couple of days, support for 4G LTE - all this can be found in a smartphone costing up to 10 thousand rubles. You just need to make a reservation that it will be a Chinese smartphone or from a nominally Russian brand, but again made in China (for example, Wileyfox, SENSEIT).

Country: China
Average price: RUB 9,649.

However, this did not prevent the development from obtaining a decent eight-core processor that provides good operating speed. Various additions are also included in the benefits. A bright indicator on the front side indicates the presence of unread messages and missed calls. The convenience of the phone is successfully complemented by a normal dual camera with a fashionable bokeh function, also known as the background blur function, which is a rarity for devices costing up to 10,000 rubles.

Of course, being an economy-class solution, this smartphone cannot be compared to a professional camera in terms of photo quality, but the pictures taken with its dual camera with a module from Sony are unrivaled in this category. Selfies are superior in clarity and color rendition even to frontal photographs of many much more expensive devices. The front camera, which has a resolution of 16 megapixels, produces higher quality images than the rear cameras of its analogues. Moreover, it is equipped with a portrait mode that allows you to blur the background, focusing on the face.

Large display diagonals are in vogue these days. From a phablet – large smartphone– it’s more convenient to read news, watch videos and play. That is why we have compiled for you the TOP 3 budget smartphones with a 5.5-inch screen diagonal. There really is plenty to choose from.

3 Alcatel 3V 5099D

Average price: 8,520 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

The inexpensive smartphone from the French-American company, which has remained popular for many years, will be an ideal choice for anyone who loves large screens, but does not want to purchase an prohibitively heavy device. Maximum large display, the diagonal of which is 6 inches, the Alcatel brand successfully combines with a very small weight for such devices, not exceeding 155 grams. Thus, a phone with a giant screen is even slightly lighter than competitors with a relatively small screen. What also made the model one of the best is its excellent detail, made possible thanks to the screen resolution of 1080 by 2160 pixels, and clear cameras with front and rear flashes.

A bright display, clean Android 8, high speed and support for two SIM cards and a memory card, according to the owners, perfectly complement the spectacular appearance smartphone. Its only downside is the mediocre 3000 mAh battery, which only lasts for a day.

2 Meizu M5 Note 16Gb

Best camera
Country: China
Average price: 12,900 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.5

Meizu's budget devices are not going very smoothly. Take, for example, the silver medalist of our TOP-3. The body is metal and fits nicely in the hand. Screen 5.5’, FullHD resolution, color rendition and viewing angles are excellent. The performance is quite good: the 8-core Helio P10 from MediaTek paired with 3 GB of RAM provides high speed not only in simple applications, but also in complex 3D games. Even if not at maximum settings.

Cameras. They don't shoot perfectly, but they're very good for the budget class. The 13 megapixel main camera sports an f/2.2 aperture, autofocus and LED flash. If there is sufficient lighting, you can’t complain; in the dark it makes as expected noise. The front camera is also good.

But the model has a big drawback - cost. You can find an M5 Note for less than 10 thousand rubles, but only in two dozen online stores, which is not convenient for everyone.

1 Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X 32Gb+3Gb

The best value for money
Country: China
Average price: 10,280 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

Of course, we are pleased with the best price/quality ratio Xiaomi smartphone. Redmi Note 4X is good for everyone. It is pleasant to hold in your hands due to its metal body. The screen has a familiar 5.5-inch diagonal and a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. The quality is simply excellent for its class. But the performance is an order of magnitude higher. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor and 3 GB of RAM will power almost any application or game. If only MiUI didn’t consume so much RAM, it would be great. Communication modules are traditional, and therefore there is no point in listing them. The only complaint is that there is no NFC, which imposes certain limitations. The cameras aren't perfect either. The main one is 13 megapixels, normal during the day, noisy in the evening - don’t expect a miracle. But the battery is already 4100 mAh. Yes, and fast charging is supported, which is good news.

The best lightweight smartphones under 10,000 rubles

Modern smartphones, as a rule, are equipped with a fairly impressive number of modules, a more powerful processor than ever and therefore a heavier one, and a large screen. All this significantly makes the design as a whole heavier, which often makes using the device not very convenient, not to mention carrying it in the inner pocket of a jacket. Therefore, many try to choose smartphones weighing up to 150 grams, or better yet, even less.

Of course, lightness is achieved at the expense of some other properties. For example, phones of this type rarely have a diagonal of more than 5 inches, their screen resolution is standard, they lack NFC module, additional rear camera and gyroscope. However, there are advantages to such minimalism beyond weight. After all, lightweight smartphones are much more compact than others and fit well in the hand. In other characteristics, they are as varied as everyone else.

3Huawei Y6

Country: China
Average price: 8,351 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.0

Huawei Y6 is the most lightweight smartphone, available today in almost any hardware store. The weight of the model does not exceed 125 grams, which is comparable even to compact phones that were recently encountered, which are practically no longer produced. In addition, this TOP participant is quite miniature. Its height is the smallest and is only 143.5 millimeters, so the budget phone will fit into a pocket of average depth without any problems. Of course, for the sake of light weight and compactness, the manufacturer had to save a little on the amount of built-in memory, which is only 8 GB, and on the processor, but many find this normal for a budget of up to 10,000 rubles.

A smartphone has many advantages. Buyers especially note the high-quality assembly, pleasant sound without wheezing and extraneous noise, pleasant ergonomics. The ability to control applications, allowing or prohibiting specific applications from running in the background, will be useful for those who want to save battery.

Largest amount of built-in memory with small dimensions
Country: China
Average price: 7,900 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.3

Meizu smartphones are mostly famous for their not too heavy body and this model is no exception. The phone, weighing 135 grams, lies comfortably in the palm of your hand and can be operated even with one hand, which has become a rarity after the disappearance of the smallest budget-class devices from the market. Despite the light weight and relative miniature size, the advantages of the model include a very large amount of memory for such a light device. Therefore, the user has room to roam - 32 GB is more than enough to download dozens of applications, a rich photo gallery and low-resolution videos.

Also, many people consider the best features of the gadget to be well-built, a decent battery that lasts for a day, and sometimes longer, durable plastic display, and a decent camera. However, like many lightweight budget developments, Meizu cannot boast of a powerful processor, which is why it is not suitable for gamers.
