The Rs 40,000 price point is an uneasy one in the smartphone world. It’s unambiguously pricier than the budget and even mid-range offerings, but not quite as pricey as the proper flagships.
What’s available at this price point also varies somewhat. There are phones running previous-gen flagship processors, there are phones with slightly older processors but offering some measure of imaging excellence, and then there is the Oppo Reno 7 Pro 5G, the phone I have with me to review, that sells for Rs 39,999.
