Thinking Of Where To Get Your Next Gadget From?





We at EFY always aim to help our readers make informed decisions about any technology or gadget they wish to buy for themselves. While pondering over how we can help you even more with your gadget love, we realised that just pointing you to the right gadget was not enough. We had to make sure that you get the best deal for it.

With this in mind, we went on a window shopping spree at major consumer electronics retailers and checked out their prices.



Budget digital cameras (<10,000)

According to our survey, the best deal for low-end digital cameras can be found at eZone. Their prices were markedly lower than the rest of the competition.




Mainstream digital cameras (>10,000)
Mainstream digital cameras are the ones with a lot of manual features as well as better lens. What we observed was that eZone, Croma and Reliance Digital had the best deals for these devices.




Budget smartphones (<10,000)
The pricing of smartphones is a mixed affair with each store having deals on different devices. Low-end smartphones were decidedly cheaper at NEXT Electronics than at any other retail store.




Mainstream smartphones (>10,000)
As we said earlier, smartphone pricing is difficult to analyse. However, when we looked at the whole picture we came to the conclusion that eZone has better deals on higher-end smartphones.



LED TVs
The best deal for an LED TV can be had at NEXT Electronics where the prices were observed to be lower than all other retailers. The next best deal could be made at eZone. Do note that Sony LED TVs are priced almost the same at every retailer including NEXT.

Trend
The overall trend showed that eZone had the best deals in most cases. If eZone didn't, your next best bet is to check out NEXT Electronics as they also had sufficient deals to take them to second place.

Note: In order to avoid any major price changes across retailers, all shopping was done within a span of two consecutive days within the same week.
