I was hunting for a smartphone over the past few weeks and a segment that really excited me a lot was the under SAR 1,000 one. After countless hours of researching, trial and testing this is the list that we have come up with so that you don’t have to go through the same arduous process if you are looking for a sub 1K phone.

5) Motorola One Vision

The Android UI isn’t bloated with pre-installed apps so you’ll hardly get those spammy notifications and will save up on some much need space. The night vision mode on the Motorola One Vision is exceptional and even though the Ram is just 4 GB, the Exynos 9609 SoC processor is powerful enough to allow you multitasking and play games with medium settings.

4) Galaxy A50

It looks stunning, has a sleek design and is backed by a very good battery. Ideal for Samsung loyalists who aren’t ready to venture into the world of Chinese smartphones like Xiaomi, Huawei and Oppo that dominate this price range.

3) Nokia 6.2

Nokia’s latest offering shows that it really wants to make it back to the top of the league. It’s keeping its price points low and backing its phones with several features. We absolutely loved the 6.3-inch display, the level of detail on photos and the almost stock version of Android that the phone uses.

2) Huawei Y9 Prime

Huawei holds a big chunk of the Saudi market and it’s largely thanks to phones like this one here. The Y9 Prime is giving users the option to users expand their 128 GB storage to a whopping to 512 GB by an external micro SD. The notch-less display is another plus for this phone as the selfie camera pops up from the top of the phone whenever you want to take a selfie.

1) Huawei P30 Lite

The triple camera arrangement backed with the 48-megapixel primary camera will allow you to shoot magazine-worthy images. It is good for gaming as well – in the under SAR 1,000 category it can hardly get better than this. Plus, it looks just as good as the P30.
