Smartphones of 15-20K range will be driven by 5G in 2022: Flipkart

According to Flipkart, most brands would focus on design, innovation and creative development to stay lighter, slimmer, more compact and different from the competition

Most smartphones in the ₹15,000 to ₹20,000 range sold in India will be taken over by 5G technology in 2022 while similar devices under the ₹10,000 to ₹15,000 segment will start getting 5G dominance this year, said Flipkart in its smartphone trend listing for 2022.

Also, 2022 would be a breakthrough year for budget smartphones where more chipset players would be seen entering the segment by introducing flagship features to maintain affordability, said the e-tailer.

The market for AMOLED (a type of OLED display technology that stands for Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diodes) smartphone displays was anticipated to grow and become a hygiene expectation in phones above ₹10,000 by the end of the year, as per trend expectations.
