Best Mobile Phones for Video Recording in India (December 2024)

Best Mobile Phones for Video Recording in India (December 2024)

As Instagram reels and YouTube videos are taking over the world, more and more people are asking the question – what is the best phone for video recording? Video recording on smartphones has improved by leaps and bounds in the past few years and many smartphones allow you to take impressive video footage right out of the box. Of course, several of these phones also come with an inbuilt Pro video mode, where users can make fine adjustments to the ISO and shutter speeds to get the perfect recording. If you are looking to buy a phone for video recording purposes, ensure that it comes with good computational AI chops alongside reliable camera hardware. Apple has led this segment for years now with its fantastic video-shooting capabilities with crisp detail and good colours – so some obvious choices would be the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 14. However, these devices are usually exorbitantly-priced, with the Pro Max costing more than ₹1.2 lakhs. If you are looking for an Android device, there are plenty of options available. Android phones have significantly improved video shooting capabilities now and options such as the Google Pixel 7 Pro, Vivo X80, and OnePlus 10 Pro can provide you with some great-looking footage without being as hard on your wallet.
