Less than 10K Good non-MIUI device for cheap?

FXGalvatron

Hey guys. My mom's Redmi 7A has been laggy for a couple of weeks now and I've decided to get her a new phone. Her main usage will be WhatsApp, calls and YouTube. Nothing more. I am looking for a non MIUI phone since it's not the first time a MIUI phone has been this bad for me. (I factory reset the phone twice as well but no luck.)

I've been looking at the Realme series (specifically, the Narzo 20A) but I am open to other options. A clean, non-bloatware UI would be great. I'd be willing to extend my budget upto 13K if there are some good Samsungs available (but I'd ideally like to keep it as low cost as possible). As long as performance is great, I wouldn't mind. I know the flak Exynos has been receiving.

Thanks and have a great day!

Been considering that as well but I don't wanna spend too much, especially since I know how my mom handles devices. Thank you though, for your suggestion!

You could look at the Moto E series.

You can consider the newly launched Moto G10 Power or Samsung Galaxy M12. Both suited for your budget. Moto G10 will have near stock Android.

I agree, consider the newly launched motorola phones (E series or G10). I have used moto phones before and they have practically low or no bloatware and the UI is also very close to stock

Then get a feature phone or a jio phone.

Haha! I wish but right now, she can't live without WhatsApp (because her mother sends a lot of important things), GPay and YouTube. Besides, I wanna do something nice for my mom. She rarely asks for something and she didn't but I wanted to get her something nice. Thank you for your suggestion.

Ah, unfortunately, I am not looking to go down the used market.

If it was for me, I probably would have. Thank you for your suggestion, reagrdless.

Consider Nokia phones. I had bought nokia 5.1 plus for my mom @7k. Completely satisfied.
Nokia 2.4 looks a good current option https://www.flipkart.com/nokia-2-4-fjord-blue-64-gb/p/itm0ba14ef206b83?pid=MOBFXNHZZJDWAHFU

Thank you all for your suggestions! I have decided to go for the Samsung M21 (yes, it is a bit pricey but it's completely fine.) Sorry if I wasn't able to reply to every comment. Thanks guys and have a lovely day!
