Not ranked: not enough data

These phones match, but too many of the formula's inputs are unknown to score them fairly: Oppo F35 Pro 5G, Oppo Reno15 c, Poco X8 Pro Max, Realme 16, Redmi Note 17 Pro, Tecno Pova 8 Pro 5G, Vivo S2 FE.

How this list is ranked

Hardware for gaming: chip gpu, 3dmark wild life extreme (40%, required), chip geekbench 6 multi-core (15%), display refresh rate (15%), battery capacity (10%), maximum ram (10%), stereo speakers (10%).

Specification-based; it does not measure sustained frame rates or heat.

Ranked phones are on sale in India and had their first India sale in 2026; the 2025 models have their own lists. Prices are the cheapest variant's current official price, or its launch price where no current price is confirmed. A phone qualifies for "under ₹X" when that price is ₹X or less. Scores use fixed, published scales (formula version 2.6), so a phone's score is the same on every list; on budget lists the budget score shows where it sits among phones at that price.
