Want a decently equipped mobile phone and spend a maximum of CZK 5,000 on it? Yes, it's possible. On the market in 2025, you will find a number of respectable pieces that boast a great price/performance ratio. To make your job easier, we at FIXED have selected the 5 best phones in this price category for you.
The most expensive phone is not for everyone
In our article about the best phones of 2025, we took a look at this year's top mobile phones. However, these "machines" require an investment of tens of thousands of CZK, which is not for everyone.
Fortunately, after more detailed research, you will find that there are new smartphone models with an interesting price/performance ratio that won't cost you a fortune.
In this price range, you will find a reliable phone for everyday use (calls, messages, social networks), but of course you cannot expect premium performance or a top-notch camera like in flagship models.
How we selected the best mobile phones under CZK 5,000
Because any selection of the best mobile phones is to some extent individual, we have set criteria by which we will decide:
- price maximum 5,000 CZK
- maximum one model from each brand
- price/performance ratio
- display
- camera
-
battery life
Some of the selected models hit the market in 2024, but they still made it to the TOP devices of 2025 in this category.
We've ranked our favorites from 5th to 1st. So we won't keep you waiting any longer...
