How to choose the right model?

The best manufacturers offer modern gadgets for the most demanding tastes. A wide variety of telephone functions can be easily and most accurately adjusted to the desired consumer request.

Instagram lovers need a multifunctional, highly sensitive camera, gamers need powerful hardware, and music lovers need bass and impedance.

The budget component is no less important. Some buyers are satisfied with good performance and a number of functions, economical ones are looking for simple and inexpensive options, and demanding ones are looking for a prestigious and well-known brand as an indicator of their own status. They are not interested in the question of how much the phone costs. Developers are trying to release several lines of their products, affordable in price and with expensive functionality.

Samsung Galaxy S20+

At the top of the Galaxy S20 line is the Ultra version, which is also the most expensive. We decided to tell you about the Galaxy S20+, which also received stereo speakers with excellent sound quality. And although this is a model of the previous generation, it is still on sale.

Since this is a flagship, you can find all the best in it: a 6.7-inch AMOLED matrix with a resolution of 3200×1440 pixels (one of the best in the world!), a top platform based on the Samsung Exynos 990 chipset and 8 GB of RAM , sufficient 128 GB of main memory + memory card slot, 4500 mAh battery with fast and wireless charging. The camera has 4 modules: wide-angle, ultra-wide-angle, telephoto and ToF 3D.

Apple iPhone SE (2020) 128GB

Despite the fact that the iPhone SE (2020) is the same iPhone 8, with only minor changes, it is a success. And the reason is not only the love for Apple - the iPhone SE (2020) is now the smallest flagship on the market with excellent characteristics (correction - after the iPhone 12 mini). Where else, pray tell, could you see a 4.7-inch flagship over the last year or two? But Apple has it.

What's new compared to iPhone 8? There are minimal changes: a more recent A13 Bionic chip, support for eSim and Wi-Fi 6, 1 additional gigabyte of RAM.

Users had a lot of questions about the camera, but here everything is simple - nothing has changed. Or rather, it’s correct to say this: the cameras are the same, but the algorithms are more advanced, so the already excellent pictures have become even better.

The best phones with stereo speakers and a good camera under 30,000-40,000 rubles

5th place. Apple iPhone SE

In 2022 Apple iPhone

The SE looks dated, but is a good option for those who can't afford the company's flagships.
In addition, it remains one of the few compact phones
with a 4.7-inch IPS screen with a modest resolution of 1334x750 pixels and large frames around the perimeter. Because of them, it occupies only 65% of the area.

The classic fingerprint scanner is built into the “Home” key under the screen. A strange decision, because competitors have it located on the side or built into the display. But the body fits like a glove in your hand and fits even in a small pocket.

The main potential lies inside, because unlike the exterior, the hardware has been updated - the Apple iPhone SE 2022 received an A13 Bionic processor. It is also used in the flagship iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max. Budgeting gives out a smaller amount of RAM - only 3 GB in combination with 64 GB of internal memory. You can install two SIM cards, but one is Nano and the other is e-SIM.

In Antutu it scores 492165 points - an excellent result. The camera is also impressive. There is only one, but it takes good photos and was rated 103 points by DxOMark experts. It is complemented by dual LED flash and optical stabilization. The video is recorded in FHD 60 FPS and 4k 30 FPS. Above the screen is a 7 MP front camera with f/2.2 aperture.

There is NFC and advanced Wi-Fi 6. The battery is the weakest in our TOP - only 1821 mAh, but thanks to system optimization, its resource lasts until the end of the day. In half an hour, 50% of the charge is replenished. Wireless charging is supported, and the metal and glass body is IP67 waterproof. The case is very thin - only 7.3 mm and weighs 148 grams.

Truetone function;
There is only one camera, but it takes excellent photographs with optical stabilization;

Due to downsizing trends, smartphones do not have room to install a full-size speaker driver. This forces manufacturers to select speakers with optimal amplitude-frequency characteristics and pre-set the sound. In 2022, sound quality also depends on:

loudspeaker location (on the back, bottom);
its forms;
sensitivity (dB);
the housing has protection standard IP67/68.

The best models among flagship and sub-flagship smartphones use stereo sound, when both the earpiece and the multimedia speaker are simultaneously responsible for playing music or audio content. The former may be quieter than the latter due to its smaller size. Stereo sound can be:

Directional - speakers are located at the top and bottom of the front panel, which promotes immersion in games, movies or TV series.
Omnidirectional - one speaker is located in front (spoken), the second is at the bottom end.

Top options are enhanced by DTS:X surround sound technology, creating a 3D sound propagation effect.

Is there a smartphone with stereo speakers in Honor's model range? Yes! Its name is 30 Pro+. And let’s immediately add: fast and wireless charging is supported, including reverse wireless, and IP54 splash protection is also declared.

Particular attention is paid to the rear camera, which consists of three modules: main, telephoto and wide-angle. The module is almost the same as on the Huawei P40, one of the best camera phones in the world. That’s why the 30 Pro+ shoots just great.

Since this is a flagship, it received the top-end HiSilicon Kirin 990 5G chipset and an impressive amount of memory - 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal memory. The front camera is double; there is a version available for sale with a large logo in the form of an inscription on the back cover.

Redmi Note 10S

7,000 UAH. / 17,000 rub.

We can say that this is still the same basic Note 10, but more upgraded. It has a new shell and has NFC. In this TOP 10 smartphones, this is the only inexpensive phone with stereo speakers 2021 running on a Mediatek processor , not Qualcomm. It received the Helio G95 chipset. And stereo sound is complemented by Hi-Res Audio and mini-Jack certification. There is IP53 protection.

OPPO A72 128GB

OPPO A72 is the same OPPO A52, only with slightly different characteristics.

First of all, the amount of built-in memory has changed: here it has grown to 128 GB. In addition, the manufacturer used a different main rear camera module in the A72 with a resolution of 48 MP versus 12 MP. And tests show that it actually shoots better.

Is it worth the overpayment? You decide. The stereo speakers appear to be the same in both smartphones.

Oppo A9 (2020)

Probably the only smartphone in the 16-17 thousand price category equipped with stereo speakers. In terms of sound, it has no competitors in its segment, and that's cool. Plus, the Oppo A9 (2020) has a large 5000 mAh battery, NFC, and reverse charging function via an OTG cable.

[oppoa9]

Minuses:

The screen is HD, although without grain. The picture looks great, and this screen doesn’t consume a lot of energy
Looks like a C - too big and thick, uncomfortable to use with one hand
Android 9 Pie out of the box, the update to “ten” should arrive in July 2022, the update to Android 11 is in doubt. Most likely there won't be one.

Even with the listed disadvantages, the Oppo A9 (2020) is a cool smartphone for little money. It even made it into our TOP phones with an ideal price/quality ratio.

ASUS ZenFone 7 Pro ZS671KS 256GB

It’s a pity that purchasing ASUS ZenFone 7 Pro is not so easy, because the smartphone itself turned out to be very interesting.

It mainly surprises with its unusual camera module, which is flipped over using a special mechanism, that is, the same camera is used for both main and front shooting.

In this generation, the device received a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen, the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus chip and 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB of main memory. There is no wireless charging or water protection here. The camera itself received 3 modules: main, ultra-wide-angle and telephoto. It shoots very well.

Poco M3

What's good about this smartphone besides stereo speakers?

There are tons of advantages here: from a Full HD screen to a 6000 mAh battery, from a decent Snapdragon 662 chipset to 18-watt fast charging, from a 48-megapixel main camera to a very cool design. It’s cool primarily because the Poco M3 is unlike any other device. That is, the model turned out to be very original, which is a rarity in our time of monkeying with each other.

What you have to come to terms with

With the absence of an NFC chip - okay. With useless additional cameras - two. The Poco M3, like the Oppo A53, lacks a wide-angle module, but there are sensors for bokeh and macro, which, in all honesty, you can do without. It would be better if they put it in “shirik”.

Sony Xperia 1 II

New flagship from Sony. As before, the company uses a 21:9 aspect ratio screen, so the large 6.5-inch OLED display is only 72mm wide. Another thing is that the body is elongated in height.

This model has a triple camera: main module, wide-angle and telephoto. It shoots very well. Flagship platform: Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset, 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of ROM. There is fast and wireless charging, water protection.

As before, the device can sound great from both stereo speakers and headphones. For the latter, by the way, there is a 3.5 mm jack on the case.

Price: from 39,000 rubles.
Pros:

powerful Snapdragon 865 processor;
screen with a refresh rate of 144 Hz;
a set of speakers to obtain sophisticated stereo sound;
convenient notification indicator.

Minuses:

thick body;
heaviness.

A fairly large and heavy model designed to solve the most complex problems. Equipped with a high-performance chip from Qualcomm and high-speed RAM. The main camera with a resolution of 64 MP can optionally record video in 8K format.

In terms of this parameter, the smartphone does not yet have many competitors. Stereo speakers make listening to music from your phone more comfortable, and also allow you to immerse yourself in what's happening on the screen.

TECNO Pouvoir 4

So far, TECNO is not very well known in our market, but everything can change, especially if it continues to produce such unusual smartphones.

TECNO Pouvoir 4 impresses with its low cost, stereo speakers, and huge 7-inch display! True, its resolution is low (1640×720 pixels), but overall the IPS matrix is not bad. The platform is far from the most powerful - it is based on a MediaTek Helio A22 (MT6761) processor and 3 GB of RAM, but considering the cost, this is normal.

Pay attention to the powerful battery with a capacity of as much as 6000 mAh! There is no NFC, but there is a scanner and a quad camera, which generally does a good job with enough light.

Pocophone F1

This is an excellent budget smartphone 2022 and another gadget from Xiaomi. In principle, Pocophone was able to succeed in many areas, smartphones with stereo sound being one of them. It turned out to be extremely loud; the earpiece is used as a second stereo speaker. As a result, when watching movies or videos on YouTube, we will get quite good sound, but the smartphone will not work as a portable speaker.
