The CMF Phone 1 is here and it's 8GB/128GB variant priced at Rs 17,999 makes it battle it out with the POCO X6's 8GB/256GB variant which costs Rs 1,000 extra. For that extra money, you get a better display, slightly better cameras, a more snug design, a 3.5mm headphone jack, stereo speakers, and faster charging. On top of that, unlike the CMF Phone 1, the POCO X6 offers everything right in the box, from a fast charger and SIM ejector to a good quality silicone case.
Both the Nothing Phone 2a and POCO X6 are priced pretty under Rs. 25,000, with the former costing Rs. 1,000 more. Costing less, the POCO X6 comes with both a charger and good-quality case right in the box. Meanwhile, the Nothing Phone 2a does not come with either. The POCO X6 also comes with a 1.5K display and a 3.5mm headphone jack, whereas the Nothing Phone 2a comes with an FHD+ display and no headphone jack. However, where the Nothing Phone 2a emerges superior is in the software department. From fluid animations to a bloatware-free experience, the software experience is unbeatable in the budget. You also get solid battery backup and better cameras on the Phone 2a. So, it all comes down to whether you are willing to pay that extra money for it.
