Dual camera phones are a dime a dozen these days. Smartphone cameras are evolving as we speak, and only a handful of users are content with a single lens rear camera – especially when dual rear camera setups are available for as low as Rs 15,000.
If you’re looking to buy a dual cam phone in the mid-range price bracket, there is no reason to compromise on quality. Here’s a list of best dual camera phones under Rs 30,000.
