Xiaomi Redmi 5A 32GB

Rating: 4.9

The first place ranking the best smartphones up to 7,000 rubles is occupied by one of the most affordable devices among those released by the Chinese company Xiaomi. For 6000 - 7000 rubles. The customer will receive a device with a 5-inch HD screen on its front panel. The display was created using IPS technology, so there is no need to worry about viewing angles. Also on the front side is the front camera. However, it turned out to be quite simple, as a result of which this module is only suitable for video calls. But this cannot be said about the main camera - it has a resolution of 13 megapixels and an aperture of f / 2.2. Although it’s still not worth waiting for the excellent quality of the pictures - the module has some limitations.

At least three versions of the smartphone, differing in the color of the case, are on sale. In terms of technical characteristics, all these options are absolutely identical. The device in any case will have an LTE-module, thanks to which high-speed data transmission is realized. As for Wi-Fi, it is limited to the 802.11n standard, which may not suit some owners of modern routers. Nothing bad can be said about the navigation module - it supports work with both American and Russian satellites. Also among the installed wireless modules is Bluetooth 4.1. But the manufacturer decided to forget about NFC - you cannot replace a bank card with your smartphone.

The quad-core Snapdragon 425, whose clock frequency reaches 1,400 MHz, is used as a processor. Also under the case are 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory. Of course, one day this will seem a little, so the Chinese have endowed their creation with a slot for a microSD card.

Perhaps this is a very good machine. Yes, some of its characteristics are not as good as we would like. But you can not say that the device is able to greatly disappoint the buyer. No, it fully justifies its value.

Huawei Y5 2017

Rating: 4.8

The second place in the ranking of the best smartphones up to 7,000 rubles goes to a wonderful device from the Chinese manufacturer. It has balanced performance and low cost. On its front side is a 5-inch display, manufactured by IPS technology and having a resolution of 720p. The screen has good sensitivity, so there are no problems with control. Android 6.0 is used as the operating system here - this version is unlikely to be outdated in the coming years.

As befits almost any Chinese smartphone, Huawei Y5 2017 has two slots for SIM-cards. The difference from most competitors is that these slots are supplemented with a slot for a microSD card. The latter may well be useful, because the amount of internal memory here does not exceed 16 GB. As for the memory operative, then it is 2 GB here, which is the optimal parameter for a budget device.

Pretty good cameras are built into this smartphone. The back has only 8-megapixel resolution, but its diaphragm is open to f / 2. The pictures can not be called ultimatum, but they will please you for sure. The resolution of the front camera is only 5 megapixels, but it can also surprise - at least the presence of a flash. The application responsible for the shooting, as well as all other programs, is provided by a MediaTek MT6737T quad-core processor. The device also includes a 3000 mAh battery, a good GPS chip with a digital compass, an LTE module, and even an FM radio. It is surprising that with all this, the device weighs only 150 g.

Meizu M6 16GB

Rating: 4.8

This smartphone looks more like a Samsung device two years ago. Here, too, there is a physical button "Home", which is also a fingerprint scanner. Above this key is a 5.2-inch IPS-panel with a resolution of 720p. The pixel density of 282 PPI is quite an acceptable parameter for a budget smartphone. But the camera here is used more atypical, so this model and got into our rating. The resolution of the camera is 13 megapixels, the detail of the pictures pleasantly pleases the eye. You can use this module and do video shooting. As for the front camera, there’s nothing to scold her either - its resolution is 8 megapixels.

Four color options are on sale. The most interesting is the version with a yellow case - such a device can be bought by a student who loves bright colors. The device will definitely like the child, even to him it will seem very light - the weight of the device does not exceed 143 g. An eight-core MediaTek MT6750 processor is hidden under the polycarbonate case. This is an unexpected choice of manufacturer - usually a less powerful solution is used in budget devices. Also, the gadget includes 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory. Bluetooth 4.1, LTE and Wi-Fi 802.11n modules provide communication to the smartphone. A good working navigation chip should please the buyer - it is not without reason that some taxi drivers make their choice in favor of the Meizu M6. You can only regret the absence of NFC - it is impossible to turn a smartphone into a bank card.

LG K7 (2017) X230

Rating: 4.7

In the top three rankings of the best smartphones up to 7,000 rubles - a typical budget smartphone, having at its disposal rather weak components. This is one of the cheapest devices in our rating - you can buy it in Russian retail for 6500-7000 rubles. The device functions under control of Android 6.0, and as the processor here very inexpensive MediaTek MT6737 is used. Fortunately, even its power is enough for processing images with a resolution of 854x480 pixels. This is the setting of the 5-inch display installed here. Its main disadvantage is the manufacturing technology. Alas, the viewing angles are far from maximum here, with certain deviations of the color of the image are almost inverted.

The smartphone has 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of permanent memory. This allows you to recommend its purchase only to those who do not really need "smart" features. You simply can not install a large number of applications here. The memory card slot does not save, because many programs require installation exclusively in the built-in storage.

However, it is impossible to criticize this smartphone exclusively. Despite the low cost, he got at his disposal a Bluetooth 4.2 module. Energy efficient and fairly fresh version of the "blue tooth" is not always found in such devices. Also, the device has received support for LTE-A, which allows you to download files at a very high speed. Someone can also be pleased by FM radio, which smartphone manufacturers are increasingly forgetting. Well, the 8-megapixel camera here seems to have moved from the Nexus 4. Not the most, I must say, a bad option.

Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime SM-G532F

Rating: 4.6

Traditionally, the budget devices from Samsung in fact are not. They have a certain margin for the brand, and therefore with the same characteristics they are slightly more expensive than competitors. For example, Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime sell for 7000 - 8000 rubles, although it should cost a couple of thousand rubles less. Nevertheless, many people will buy this particular smartphone, since South Korean products are more reliable than Chinese products, and Samsung’s service centers are fine.

This device turned out very small. On its front panel there is a 5-inch PLS-screen with a resolution of 960x540 pixels. Viewing angles can not be called the maximum, but the user will not have any particular problems. It should be noted that the device case can be painted in one of three colors. The official announcement of the smartphone occurred quite a long time ago, so the sixth version of Android is installed as the operating system. However, it is unlikely that it will become obsolete in the next year and a half, and longer, budget devices are used extremely rarely.

As befits a modern smartphone, the Galaxy J2 Prime has support for LTE networks. The device also includes Bluetooth 4.2 wireless modules and Wi-Fi 802.11n. Well, it would be strange if the South Korean apparatus would work poorly with GPS and GLONASS satellites. Although it is felt that the power reserve of the quad-core processor is barely enough to display navigation applications. And 1.5 GB of RAM is quite a bit. But the most disappointing is the 8 GB of built-in storage - the buyer will have to abandon the practice of installing a large number of additional programs.

Of course, you should not expect miracles from the built-in cameras. They have a resolution of 8 and 5 MP. To photograph a person for a contact book - no problem. To organize videoconferencing in Skype too. But to create pictures that many Instagram users would have admired will definitely not succeed.Also about the budget status of the device says the lack of light sensor, which is why the system can not adjust the brightness of the screen backlight automatically.

ASUS Zenfone G552KL

Rating: 4.6

Relatively recent smartphone from the Taiwanese manufacturer. It exists only in black, and as the operating system, Android 7.0 is installed on it. Above the 5.5-inch IPS-display you can notice the light and proximity sensors. Also here is a 5-megapixel camera, which is suitable for unpretentious self and video conferencing.

Of course, it has a smartphone and a rear camera. But its resolution is only slightly higher - it is 8 Mp. However, this is the standard for budget devices. The same word can be called and the amount of permanent memory, amounting to 16 GB. As for the operational memory, it is installed only 1 GB - this is extremely small, in some cases, the buyer will necessarily encounter problems. A battery is also typical here - its capacity does not exceed 3000 mAh. The processor power is also small, but at least the chipset was created by Qualcomm - I think that it will cope with many tasks without any special problems.

The gadget can receive and transmit data via LTE networks. Wireless headphones are connected via Bluetooth 4.1. The navigation chip works quite well - it understands both American and Russian satellites. But NFC is not here - this chip is generally a rare guest in budget smartphones. But the greatest disappointment to the user will cause a screen resolution of 1440x720 pixels - with such a diagonal I would like more. However, the pixel density here is not as small as it may seem - it is 293 PPI. So, our smartphone got to our rating not in vain.

Honor 7A

Rating: 4.5

Another Huawei smartphone in this ranking. And one more novelty. This is one of the few devices at a low price, operating under the control of Android 8.1. At the time of this writing, a more recent version of the "green robot" simply does not exist! Most of the front side is occupied by the display, the diagonal of which is 5.45 inches, and the resolution is 1440 × 720 pixels. This is not to say that this is an ideal parameter for such a large screen, but this does not mean that pixelation is distinguishable to the naked eye. Well, above the display here is the lens of a 5-megapixel camera.

The back panel is a haven for the camera, the resolution of which is 13 megapixels. It's nice that this module is capable not only of high-quality photography. With this camera, you can shoot and video - the resolution of a picture at 30 frames / s is 1920x1080 pixels.

The resulting video can quickly be sent to a social network. This can be done either via Wi-Fi (802.11n is supported as much as possible) or via LTE networks. Also among the wireless modules present here is Bluetooth 4.2. The GPS-chip supporting both the most popular types of satellites functions without any complaints.

I am glad that the device is based on MediaTek MT6739. The clock frequency of this chipset reaches 1500 MHz, which is enough for most programs and games. And under the body of the product, which can be painted in one of the three available colors, there are 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of permanent memory.Receive the buyer and the ability to listen to FM-radio.

Nokia 2 Dual sim

Rating: 4.4

At the time, Nokia left the smartphone market. However, soon the Chinese company HMD Global began selling devices under this brand. One of these devices even fell into our rating. Nokia 2 has the best combination of price and features. Many unpretentious users, this device will suit 100%.

The device differs from some competitors by the capacious accumulator. 4100 mAh - this should be enough for a day of battery life, even with active use. Also please the buyer should display. With not the largest 5-inch diagonal, it has a resolution of 720p. As a result, the pixel density is 294 ppi. Not flagship figures, but the device still surpasses many budget competitors. It is necessary to note the presence here of the LTE module, by means of which the transmission and reception of data occurs at a very high speed.

For the rest, one can hardly say something special about Nokia 2. It has a built-in minimum amount of memory - 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of permanent memory. As the processor involved the least powerful solution from Qualcomm. The rear and front cameras have a resolution of 8 and 5 megapixels, respectively - the device was not created for high-quality shooting. Against this background, it is surprising that the smartphone has some dust and moisture protection - it is certified according to the IP52 standard (do not even think of dropping it into the water, the gadget is not afraid only of rain).

Conclusion

This is the ranking of the best smartphones at the price of 7000-7500 rubles. As you can see, all these devices have one or another list of shortcomings. After all, not even the flagships are without sin! To decide on the choice of a particular device, we recommend to understand what kind of minuses you are ready to accept. Further, you need to focus on the brand - the more it is, the more reliable the device will be (although a certain percentage of rejects are allowed by any company). Happy shopping!
