Samsung had held the top position in India before Xiaomi and it stayed there for quite too long. Samsung’s budget phones had a bad reputation as they basically started lagging after a couple of months. But now, Samsung has really upped its game. They came back with the Galaxy M30 and I must say it can be the phone that can turn around things for Samsung. With Samsung's latest OneUI based on Android 9.0 Pie, this phone can handle day to day tasks with ease. Take a look at the specs:
Exynos 7904 Processor
6.4-inches sAMOLED Full-HD+ Infinity Display.

4/64 - Rs. 13,990
