As per a recent GAP analysis (Expectations versus Experience) in Rs 6,000 – 12,000 segment, in which 1 out of every 2 smartphones will be sold in 2021, Camera and Battery are the two key parameters defining the expectations of a user basis which they make their choice. While all OEMs operating in the segment are attempting to democratise technology and innovation by bringing in latest features and functions of a smartphone in this price bracket as well, yet the expectations of the people exceed what is being delivered. This is primarily because of the shifting aspirations that are affected by the features and functions in upper segments that become as a reference point for the smartphone users in this segment as well.

Overall, Tecno emerges as the leader in meeting expectations of the users in this segment, followed by OPPO and Realme. Tecno’s strength is in its superior camera quality as well as emerging in leader-board in Battery and Display & Touch parameters.
In the second most important parameter of Battery performance, Realme leads the segment while OPPO emerges as the best audio experience delivering smartphone. Market leader by volume, Xiaomi leads in Display & Touch and Body & Exteriors parameters, while also finding its place on the leader-board of Audio performance.
In the upcoming festive quarter, the sales in this segment will be primarily driven in Tier 2 cities & towns and beyond where 68% of the smartphone users are owing a smartphone of ₹12,000 or less. These users will leverage the expected offers and schemes to upgrade or replace the end-of-life smartphones, while the upgrade from a featurephone to a smartphone will still be flattish.
