The device runs on One UI 6 based on Android 14 out of the box, with Samsung promising OS updates till Android 21. If you are looking to buy a flagship phone that does not compromise on cameras, battery and don’t mind the slightly outdated flagship chipset, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is an easy recommendation for Rs 74,999.

Samsung Galaxy M36
Looking for a mid-range Samsung device that will last you for years? Check out the recently launched Galaxy M36. The latest from Samsung packs in a 6.7-inch sAMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and comes with Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection.
Running on One UI 7 based on Android 15, Samsung is promising up to 6 major OS updates, which makes it the only phone under Rs 20,000 with more than half a decade of software support.
On the back, you get a minimal-looking elliptical camera island that consists of a 50MP primary lens, an 8MP ultrawide shooter and a 2MP macro sensor. The device is powered by Exynos 1580 and is backed by up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage.

However, unlike most mid-range devices launched this year, the Galaxy M36 has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, which might be a bummer for some. Another downside is that the phone still has a 5,000mAh lithium-ion battery with 25W wired charging support. The base variant of the Galaxy M36 that comes with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage is currently selling for Rs 17,499, but if you can spend a bit more, we recommend going with the 8GB RAM version that costs Rs 18,999.
Note: The price of these smartphones may change anytime during the sale, so make sure you check them before purchasing.
