Finding the right phone is a real challenge. Setting aside ideological issues, like choosing between a bitten apple and a green robot, the sheer number of models and price ranges can give you a headache, a reflexive reach for your pocket, for your virtual wallet, and then back to your head when the aforementioned migraine intensifies after all the calculations. 😱 How do you navigate this turbulent sea of offers? Which smartphone under PLN 2000 is worthy of a Viking? We're here to help!
Let's be honest with each other from the start and highlight two facts:
- The perfect phone doesn't exist, and choosing a specific model is always a compromise to some extent. In the following review, we were guided by a principle that, while not a cure for all ills, is essentially on the same shelf and is called excellent value for money. 🏷️/💎 The phrase "smartphone under PLN 2000" in current market realities gives us mid-range models, placing us between budget and flagship devices, which easily require double that amount.
- We are Mobile Vikings, a community mobile operator that is successfully rescuing more and more unfortunate souls from the clutches of other operators and long-term offers. While you won't find the phones listed below in our assortment, you can be sure that we're not pushing any particular model just because we have a deal with the manufacturer. Instead, we'll gladly offer you the best-tailored offer without a contract and a SIM card that fits any smartphone ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Here are the models that, in our subjective opinion, are worth considering:
Huawei P30
Huawei has firmly established itself in the domestic market, and its successive flagships are gaining increasing popularity. This is not surprising, considering the specifications and build quality. The P30 model is still an excellent option, combining a very good OLED display with a fingerprint reader. 🖐️ The entire construction is waterproof. Photography enthusiasts will also find it useful, with a triple main camera boasting 40 megapixels. Support for WiFi Calling and VoLTE is provided!

Samsung Galaxy A51
Major smartphone manufacturers have accustomed us to releasing flagships almost with clockwork precision every year. Samsung naturally does the same, adding many models with slightly lower performance, but still worth considering. One such model is the Galaxy A51, which boasts a sleek, modern design and good components. Paired with its design is an equally good Super AMOLED display and a camera that can handle photos even in night mode. 🦉 All of this, along with a 4000 mAh battery, should be enough for a full day, even with intensive use.
You can snag it for (Ceneo): 1260 PLN (https://www.ceneo.pl/90218205)

Apple iPhone SE (2020)
You can snag it for (Ceneo): 1998 PLN (https://www.ceneo.pl/92918439)
Manufacturer's website: https://www.apple.com/en/iphone-se/
This model is Apple's budget solution. It made it into our list at the last minute, considering the manufacturer's suggested price. Nevertheless, it's worth considering this option, given that despite its not-so-modern form factor, the smartphone features a chip inside that also powers the (current) flagship model, the iPhone 11 Pro. 🤑 In other aspects, its quality is undeniable. Especially if you value smooth performance and intuitive interface navigation. In other cases, if you dream of a smartphone under PLN 2000, you will find much better options, considering the aforementioned magic principle = value for money.
realme 6
Let's briefly step away from the clash of giants. It's worth paying attention to manufacturers who aren't widely known and don't boast multi-million dollar advertising budgets. This doesn't make them any better or worse in the ring; in any case, they are still an interesting option to consider. realme is one such manufacturer, founded in 2018 and launched in our market in April of this year. The model named '6' is a very good realization of the price-to-quality principle. For less than PLN 1000, you get a quite solid construction, with a good display, a very capacious battery, and equally fast charging. ⚡ By the way – we tested this model some time ago.
You can snag it for (Ceneo): 929 PLN (https://www.ceneo.pl/92646845)

Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite
The last model in our selection is a manufacturer that hardly needs an introduction. It has gone from an underdog 👠 to an almost cult brand that has firmly established itself in the Polish market by pushing its way forward. While initially, the price followed the quality, now the latter is undeniable, but the amounts one has to pay for the latest models are steadily increasing year by year. However, in this case, we can still talk about very well-spent money. A quad camera (64 megapixels), a capacious battery with fast charging, and a very durable construction make it one of the more interesting options on the market.
You can snag it for (Ceneo): 1344 PLN (https://www.ceneo.pl/93621008)

These are just a few of the models that caught our eye. What smartphone under PLN 2000 do you consider the best choice? What models are you currently using and are satisfied with? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Don't hesitate to share your suggestions in the comments below!
