by June 27, 2016 2,729 views0
One of the great things about smartphone growth over the years has been that in order to appeal to the consumers and stand out from each other, smartphone brands have experimented with a plethora of options. One of those options is the screen size appeal. The Phablet segment is perhaps one of the more popular mobile segments not just in India, but all over the world these days. They aren’t too small. They aren’t too big. They are just the perfect size for most of us.
Today we will take a look at the top 5 Phablets in India in 2016. For this list we are only considering the Phablets which are currently available. Also, the screen size of Phablets is usually a vague number that lies somewhere between a standard smartphone size and a standard Tablet size, we chose a minimum screen size of 5.5 inch as the Phablet size for this list. We will review this list at the end of 2016. So let’s get right into it.
Huawei Nexus 6P
This is one smartphone that just refuses to give up. It was touted by many media outlets as arguably the best smartphone of the year 2015. At iSpyPrice, however, it managed to clinch the title of smartphone of the year 2015. Nexus 6P has a 5.7 inch display, 2 GHz Octa core processor, 64 GB internal storage, 3 GB RAM, 12.3 megapixel primary camera, 3450 mAh battery, and Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS.
The Huawei Nexus 6P is still one of the very best phones money can buy. At just under Rs. 40,000 the Nexus 6P is a great product to own.
Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus
The Samsung Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 Edge were two products that helped Samsung regain some of its lost traction in the high-end smartphone business. Some folks forget what serious trouble Samsung was in right before the launch of the Galaxy S6 phones. However, it is the bigger cousin of the S6 Edge that makes it to our list.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus comes with a 5.7 inch Super AMOLED display, 1.5 GHz Quad Core & 2.1 GHz Quad Core processors, 4 GB RAM, 16 megapixel primary camera, 32 GB internal storage capacity, and 3000 mAh battery. The phone is powered by Android 5.1 Lollipop OS. You can buy the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus from Amazon at just under Rs. 50,000, which is also the ‘Best Buy ‘ price of this product on iSpyPrice.
Asus ZenFone 2 Laser ZE601KL
The Asus Zenfone 2 series is extremely popular in India. Though the nomenclature of Asus phones still doesn’t make a lot of sense to most of us there is little doubt that the Zenfone 2 Laser series is a successful product in every right. This is such a great series that I chose to gift one of the variants to my mom earlier this year. For someone who eats, sleeps, and drinks gadgets that says a lot about the product’s likeability quotient.
The Asus Zenfone 2 Laser ZE601KL has a 6 inch IPS display, 1.7 GHz Octa Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 MSM8939 processor, 3 GB RAM, 13 megapixel primary camera, 32 GB internal storage capacity, and 3000 mAh battery. The phone is powered by Android 5.0 Lollipop OS upgradable to Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS. However, the real clincher for this phone is its price. This is the least priced product on this top 5 list. At just Rs. 17,999, this phone is a bit of a giveaway from Asus, especially when compared to the prices of the other products on this list.
Samsung Galaxy Note 5
The Samsung Galaxy Note series has legendary status in the Phablet segment. It was one of the phones that revolutionized the Phablet segment by offering large screen smartphones before it became cool to own a Phablet.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 comes with a 5.7 inch Super AMOLED display, 1.5 GHz Cortex-A53 Quad Core + 2.1 GHz Cortex-A57 Quad Core processors, 4 GB RAM, 16 megapixel primary camera, 3000 mAh battery, and it is available in multiple internal storage variants. The Note 5 is powered by Android 5.0 Lollipop OS. The 64 GB variant of the Note 5 is currently available for Rs. 45, 900 on Croma, which is its ‘Best Buy’ price on iSpyPrice.
Motorola Moto X Style
This phone has the looks, hence the name. Unarguably Motorola’s best Phablet ever, the Motorola Moto X Style is one Phablet I would recommend to anyone looking to buy a large screen phone.
The Moto X Style comes with a 5.7 inch IPS display, 1.8 GHz Hexa core processor, 32 GB internal storage, 3 GB RAM, 21 megapixel primary camera, and 3000 mAh battery. It is powered by Android 5.1 Lollipop OS. The Moto X Style is currently available for Rs. 28,999 through Flipkart, which is its ‘Best Buy’ price on our portal.
