How benchmarksutra rates smartphones: maker-stated specs and Indian prices only, nothing guessed.
Quick Verdict
The benchmarksutra Smartphone Score rates 13 smartphones sold in India. Every spec comes from the maker's own product page, and every price from an Indian retailer's listing. We never use test results from other sites, and we never fill a gap with a guess.
Researched, not hands-on tested. Scores use only the specifications on each maker's own product page (checked 14 November 2026) and prices at Indian retailers (checked 14 November 2026). We did not test these smartphones ourselves. How the benchmarksutra Smartphone Score works.
What we rate
Battery capacity. Battery in mAh, as the maker states it. 4,000 mAh rates 0 and 6,500 mAh or more rates 100.
Wired charging. Fastest wired charging the maker states, in watts. 10 W rates 0 and 100 W or more rates 100. Charger in the box is not checked.
Screen refresh rate. Highest screen refresh rate the maker states. 60 Hz rates 0, 120 Hz rates 100.
Dust and water rating. IP rating the maker states (IP68/IP69 rate 100, IP65 about 60, IP54 about 34). No IP rating stated counts as 0.
Android updates promised. Years of Android OS upgrades the maker promises. 7 years rates 100. Where the maker states no number, the row is left out.
Storage in this variant. Built-in storage of the variant we priced. 256 GB rates 100, 128 GB 50.
Price. Lowest price we found, against the cheapest phone in the same price band.
Buyer profiles
What we checked
We read each maker's own product or specifications page for battery, charging, refresh rate, IP rating, the promised years of Android upgrades and the chip. Retail listings are used only for the price of the exact RAM and storage variant. Where a maker leaves something out, that row is left out and the weights re-spread, except the IP rating, which counts as none unless stated. A phone is ranked only if its maker states at least 5 of the 7 rated specs.
What we do not rate
Processor speed, camera quality, real battery life and display quality need tests. We do not run them and we do not use benchmark scores or other sites' results. We name the chip so you can compare it yourself.
