As the mobile market is growing rapidly, newer smartphones enter Nepal almost every month. And Nepali smartphone market is full of flagships, mid-level, and low-end smartphones at the moment.
While buying a new smartphone huge amount of time is spent on searching for the perfect phone that fits the bill. Flagship smartphones are definitely not cheap and many tend to skip the older flagship models. If you’re on a budget and opting for a mid-range phone rather than the latest flagship phone, you should definitely consider older flagship phones. Even if those flagships are older, they may outperform almost all of the mid-range phones released a year after. Not to forget these older flagship models will also receive a considerable price drop. Thus, you might be able to sneak in a perfect deal in an older flagship rather than a mid-range within the same budget range.
