10 Honor 8S

Huawei has two lenses, it works autonomously for two days. The 5.71-inch screen offers rich colors, muted blacks and comfortable viewing angles. On the right are the volume and power buttons, conveniently located for the thumb. On the left is a dual sim and a microSD tray.

At the bottom is a micro USB port and a speaker. The headphone jack is located on the top. Honor 8S has a back cover included in the package, as well as an IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1440 × 720 px. The frame along the screen is not wide, which has a positive effect on the design. Color reproduction is average, which is expected from an entry-level smartphone. Works on the basis of the EMUI 9.0 interface, Android Pie. The system is convenient and easy to use, and is also equipped with Google applications.

The 8S has a Helio A22 chipset, 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. Calls, text messages, social networking, web browsing and video browsing are no big deal.

Due to the small amount of RAM, mobile games "stutter". Switching between applications leads to a freeze, which requires you to restart your device. The battery, with a capacity of 3020 mAh, charges in 2 hours 41 minutes.With intensive use, autonomy is enough for 5 hours.

The 13 MP lens performs decently in daylight, but is not usable in low light conditions. Autofocus must be adjusted manually. The Honor 8S is an entry-level device that delivers adequate performance. The big minus is a weak battery and lens. Being a budget gadget, it is not intended for active users. An excellent choice for those who are switching from a regular device to a smartphone.

6Moto G7 Play

The most inexpensive and smallest device of the G7 family. There are no glossy body lines or metallic highlights here, but the internal specs are unparalleled in this price range. Moto keeps up with the competition from Nokia and Honor.

Comfortable, easy to operate with one hand, the plastic finish is pleasant to the touch, and the textured back helps to hold the gadget. The lens has a signature round module with the classic "M" logo. Next to it is a fingerprint sensor.

On the left edge is a slot for a SIM card and MicroSD, on top is a headphone port. On the right is a textured power button and volume rocker. On the bottom is a USB-C connector compatible with a laptop.

Moto has a high performance processor. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 chip is more efficient than Mediatek, which is typically found in devices under $10,000. Motorola has skimped on RAM, so games and apps stutter. Built-in memory is 32 GB, there is a slot for micro SD. Wi-Fi connection is sometimes interrupted, but connects again. Works on the basis of the operating system Android 9.0 Pie.

Motorola, unlike Nokia 3.1 Plus? does not support NFC, enabling payments via Google Pay.

The weak point of budget devices, traditionally, cameras.Moto is equipped with a 13-megapixel lens with f/2.0 aperture. Able to take good pictures in ideal conditions. The level of detail is decent, the colors are vibrant. Doesn't do well with contrasting lighting, often blowing out lighter areas. In stock 8 MP front camera, which is suitable for selfies. 3000 mAh battery. Wireless charging is not supported.

The G7 Play lacks glamour, but it makes up for it with decent performance and long battery life. The Nokia 3.1 Plus is cheaper, supports NFC, but is slower in terms of performance.

5 Nokia 3.1 Plus

HMD Global makes Nokia 3.1 Plus based on Cricket Wireless.This is a budget gadget with high battery life and decent performance. Close to climbing higher in the rankings if not for the camera. Similar to other Nokias with a centrally located camera and a fingerprint sensor on the back. The bluish-matte tint makes it stand out among the many black devices.

The back is made of polycarbonate with an aluminum frame. The edges are rounded, so the smartphone is comfortable to hold in your hand. The Nokia 3.1 is large, so it's hard to reach the top of the screen with your finger when holding it with one hand.

The matte backing is easily soiled but easy to clean. The polycarbonate shell is removable, but the battery cannot be replaced. A microSD tray will come in handy, as the built-in memory (32 GB) fills up quickly. There is a headphone jack in the standard place.

Powerful bezels surround the 5.99-inch IPS-type LCD screen. At the top there is a speaker, Nokia logo and a selfie camera. The gadget has a wide frame along the display, which is not in line with current trends, but the rounded edges make it look more modern.

The model has a screen with a resolution of 1440 x 720 pixels. Colors look a bit muted. A big nuisance is the dim display, so there are problems with displaying in daylight.

Videos on Netflix and YouTube do not look clear. Motorola offers better picture quality and more realistic colors. The fingerprint sensor is finicky, and you'll notice stuttering on Instagram and Twitter.

Draws games that do not require high graphics power. Due to the low frame rate, it is unlikely that you will be able to play PUBG Mobile, Breakneck or Alto's Odyssey.

The near field communication (NFC) sensor is rare in budget devices, but Nokia can boast of it. At the back of the smartphone is a dual camera of 13 and 5 MP. This combination allows you to take live photos with a "bokeh" effect. Any movement of the subject or hand shake will create a blurry photo, as the lens has trouble focusing in low light conditions. A USB Type-C port is provided for fast charging.

Nokia is not bad, but if you can spend a little more money, then it is better to get the previous rating participant - Moto G7 Play.

The model has a weak camera, there is no fresh version of Android, but the removable battery lasts a whole day and a solid display is installed.In addition, the phone has decent performance and nice design, which makes it popular.

At the top end there is a front camera and a flash with a headphone jack between them. The only speaker in the device sounds decent indoors, but is muffled outside. The volume and power keys are located on the right side.

The resolution of the IPS display is 1520×720 pixels. The screen is bright, despite the low price category. It automatically adjusts the saturation depending on the amount of light around, and is also quite energy efficient.

The Samsung Galaxy A10 runs on the Android Pie operating system with Samsung One UI version 1.1 software. It is worth noting that this is one of the best mobile OS that does not contain a large number of third-party programs. The Exynos 7884 chipset and 2GB of RAM are more than enough to power an entry-level device quickly. The gadget takes good photos, but does not cope with a blurry background effect. Colors are balanced, details look crisp and accurate.

The A10 is a quality entry-level gadget with a stunning display and high performance. Offered at a reasonable price.

1. Xiaomi Redmi Note 7

Redmi Note 7 has optimized software, excellent camera and long battery life. Perhaps this is the best budget smartphone at the moment. Xiaomi has used a glass sandwich design. The device looks sturdy and the finish is impeccable. The device is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5, 0.8 mm thick. Glass is slippery, which is worth paying attention to.

The model has a high-contrast 6.3-inch LTPS LCD display. The screen is bright, watching videos in the sun is not a problem. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 combined with the Adreno 512 GPU shows acceptable results. You can comfortably play PUBG Mobile at high graphic settings with slight frame drops. The same applies to Shadowgun as well as Asphalt 9: Legends.

App loading times are faster than competitors in the rankings. Handles multitasking. The response of the fingerprint scanner is fast. Redmi Note 7 runs on MIUI 10, built on top of Android Pie 9.0.

At the back, there is a dual main camera of 48 and 5 MP, which ensures flawless shots. It is also important to consider that full 48-megapixel images take up a lot of space on the phone (40-50 MB). The aperture (f/1.79) handles both day and night photography equally well. Note 7 records video in 4K at 30 FPS or 1080p at 60 fps. Autofocus is fast, but shooting in 4K requires a stabilizer. 4000 mAh battery provides intensive daily work.

Redmi Note 7 is a nimble smartphone that is hard to compare to others if you keep in mind the budget of 10,000 rubles.
