Amazon India's Great Freedom Sale: here are the best smartphone offers
Amazon India is running a big Great Freedom Festival sale with discounts on a variety of products (we will focus on phones, of course). Keep in mind that you can get up to 10% instant discount up to ₹3,000 with SBI Credit Cards in addition to the straight discounts.
The new Motorola Razr 50 Ultra is one of the most capable flip foldables on the market right now and that 4” 165Hz cover display certainly is stunning. It’s an expensive device, but with a 20% discount, the price is easier to swallow. Additionally, Amazon is including a free pair of Moto Buds+ with the phone (they have an MSRP of ₹12,000, but can be found for ₹8,000 right now).
The OnePlus Nord 4 is one of the hottest devices on the market with a metal unibody the likes of which we hadn’t seen in years. This one doesn’t have a straight discount, but instead relies on the cashback offer for SBI credit cards. The 8/128GB model gets ₹1,000 off, the 8/256GB and 12/256GB models get ₹2,000 off.
HMD’s new Crest and Crest Max are available with hefty discounts. Note that these are mostly the same device, except that the Max has more RAM and storage (6/128GB vs. 8/256GB) and a different main camera (64MP vs. 50MP). There is a microSD card slot on board, so extra storage is easy to get.
The Poco X6 is equipped with a Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset and plenty of RAM and storage – especially if you get the top-specced model (12/512GB). The difference between it and the base model (8/256GB) is only ₹3,000.
The Poco M6 and M6 Pro are two 5G phones that start under ₹10,000. We’d recommend the Pro model due to its sharper display (FHD+ vs. HD+), more powerful chipset (Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 vs. Dimensity 6100+). The rest is mostly the same, including the 5,000mAh battery with 18W charging, microSD slot and 3.5mm headphone jack.
The Poco C65 is an even cheaper model, but it is limited to 4G connectivity due to its Helio G85 chipset (with slower eMMC storage). Other than that, it’s quite similar to the M6.
When it comes to cheap 4G phones, the Realme Narzo N61 should also be considered. It has an IP54 dust and water resistance rating and a die-cast aluminum chassis, compared to the plastic, no IP rating build of the Poco C65.
Don’t forget to check the SBI Credit Card discounts – they go as high as ₹4,250 for pricier phones like the Moto Razr 50 Ultra, but it scales with the value of the purchase. You will see the bank offer just under the price of each phone.

hmd are the same ones that made Nokia devices since 2016. They pretty ok. The "Crest" line-up is made in India.
