We curated the best budget phones in the Philippines for 2023 to get if you prioritize camera performance. Check out our picks here.

Best Budget Camera Phones in the Philippines 2023

vivo Y27

The Y27 is not the usual budget phone in the Philippines, as it focuses more on camera performance instead of gaming. vivo has been improving the imaging performance of its phones across every price segment, and the Y27 is its most affordable offering. The Y27’s 50-megapixel camera is well-optimized for shooting in different lighting conditions. It’s also a rare budget phone that has a decent Night Mode feature that makes images shot in low-light still look natural. 

Redmi Note 12 4G

Phones priced under Php 10k don’t prioritize camera performance, but the Redmi Note 12 4G is an exception. Despite using the same 50-megapixel camera as other budget phones, the Redmi Note 12 4G has a well-optimized post-processing algorithm that delivers decent photos and videos even in low light situations. You also get added versatility with the 8-megapixel ultra-wide, which takes good shots and has consistent imaging quality with the main camera. 

 

Infinix ZERO 30 5G

The ZERO 30 5G is one of the best under Php 20k phones for camera performance. Having OIS on the main camera and a 50-megapixel selfie camera already makes the ZERO 30 5G good–but what makes it stand out is how it maximizes its hardware by being able to shoot 4K video on BOTH cameras. There’s no phone priced under Php 20k that offers the same set of features, making the ZERO 30 5G an excellent choice for those who are into content creation.

 

vivo V27e

While the V27 is an excellent phone for content creation, the more affordable V27e is just as good at a lower price point. Its OIS-equipped 64-megapixel main camera has the same post-processing algorithm used on the V27, so overall imaging performance is excellent for a mid-range phone. You get natural-looking colors on the V27e, and its low-light performance is better than most phones in its price segment. You also get vivo’s Aura Light as a bonus for making your portrait shots flattering with a soft ring light. 

 

POCO X5 Pro

We mean it when we say that the POCO X5 Pro is a jack of all trades, as this mid-range phone does have good camera performance. POCO phones are focused more on gaming, but we liked the POCO X5 Pro’s cameras, especially with their broad dynamic range. It can also shoot 4K videos, making it a nice feature on the X5 Pro as an all-rounder. The X5 Pro proves that POCO also offers phones with good camera performance AND a competitive price.

That rounds up our picks for the best budget camera phones in the Philippines for 2023. Do you agree with our choices?
