Modern day smartphones come with a variety of features appealing to a wide range of customers. But if there’s one feature that grabs the most eyeballs, it’s the size of a battery. Keeping this in mind, manufacturers have been pushing phones with massive batteries for quite some time now. It’s mostly a coincidence that a majority of these phones belong to the mid-ranged or budget segment. Well, let’s have a look at some of these smartphones that are available in India right now.

The Xiaomi Redmi 3s Prime has been the mainstay among Indian budget handsets. Featuring a 4,100mAh battery under the hood, it’s a beast when it comes to battery backup. The phone also features a 5-inch HD display, along with a 13MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera.

The one caveat here is that the handset comes with Android 6.0 Marshmallow while most of the new devices feature Android 7.0 out of the box. The phone also comes with a fingerprint scanner on board, which has become a prerequisite among mid-rangers.

The Panasonic P85 is a device that not many might have heard of. This is mainly due to the dominance of Chinese OEMs in the Indian smartphone market. But the P85 is a pretty decent offering on its own, and with a price tag of Rs 6,499 via Flipkart, the handset is one of the cheaper options if you’re considering a big battery handset. 

The P85 also comes with a 5-inch HD display, an 8MP rear camera, and a quad-core 1.0 GHz processor. It’s a very capable device with an attractive price tag to boot.

ASUS has somewhat confused the market with three devices bearing almost the same moniker. This one, however, is significantly different compared to its namesakes. The device comes with a 5,000mAh battery under the hood, coupled with a 5.2-inch HD display, an 8MP camera on the front, and the octa-core Mediatek MT6750 SoC. The handset is currently selling through Flipkart and Amazon for roughly about Rs 14,500.

Samsung has seriously upped its game when it comes to mid-rangers and budget devices. The Galaxy A9 Pro is a testament to that. Featuring a Super AMOLED display accompanied by a 5,000mAh battery, this is a truly unique offering. 

The phone is also packing a 16MP camera on the back, making it a very capable camera phone. The phone is available in Black, Gold, and White variants from both Amazon and Flipkart.
