If you are looking to buy a phone at the start of 2021 and your range lies below Rs. 35K, then look no further! We have compiled a list of five of the latest smartphones that you can get for below PKR 35,000.

The Note 8 has a large, 6.95-inch display, with a 720 x 160 pixels resolution and 258 ppi density.

The GPU Image rendering frequency of the G80 is 14 percent better than its predecessor, the G70 in the Note 7. The device has also improved by 35 percent on the AnTuTu benchmark score of the Note 7.
The phone has a Dual Infinity-O display which basically means that it has a dual front camera setup in a hole-punched display. The large 5,200 mAh battery with 18W Super Charge promises high playback times and efficient and fast charging.
