It’s rather annoying when your handset runs out of juice and surrenders to heavy usage leaving you hanging mid-air. Often, you end up wasting your valuable time hunting for a charger or a charging socket that only adds to your misery.
What I mean is, who wouldn’t love a smartphone battery that refuses to die despite hostile usage? Your life becomes lot easier if you could skip charging your handset over and over again.
So, perhaps a battery with a larger size should help.
If you consider a long lasting battery as chief priority in your handset and are on a budget, here are a few big battery phones that you can consider.

So, if you are in pursuit of a reliable battery in your handset, you can’t turn a blind eye to this smartphone.

Itel Power Pro (it1553)
Well, if you get a 5,050 mAh battery at such a humble price of 6,499 INR, why would you stop wanting more from these Chinese brands? Yes, they have proven before and yet again they can defy conventional marketing policies and keep bringing up more than ordinary attributes at affordable prices.
The Itel Power Pro (it1553) runs Eios based on Android 5.1 (Lollipop) out-of-the-box which offers various power optimization options. A dedicated button on the left side of the metal chassis facillitates switching between normal mode and ultra-mode conveniently. The ultra-mode can prolong your usage and comes in handy in critical times. However, it limits your access to a few mandatory Apps and it also turns off wireless connectivity options. The handset supports fast charging which adds value to its profile.
Unlike most contemporary handsets, it features a removable back panel under which lies dual SIM card slot (micro + Nano) and a microSD card slot. Strangely, the battery is still non-removable. Of course, the handset is a beast that can comfortably last for 2-days of a single charge.

Panasonic P75
Alongside the trust that Panasonic has invoked in the past years, this handset has a lot of tempting features. Its huge battery is the primary one.
Panasonic P75 has kept its huge 5,000 mAh battery as its USP. Other than the massive battery, it has a 1.3GHz quad-core processor teamed with 1 GB RAM and 8 GB internal storage (expandable up to 32 GB via microSD card). It comes with dual SIM card support.

Micromax Juice 3 Q392
This member of Micromax Juice series has the biggest sized battery in its family. Of course, Juice 3 Plus is one that features a battery size equally big, but you will have to shell out a bit more (8,399 INR) for the added ‘Plus’ moniker and associated features.
The battery as huge as 4000 mAh doesn’t just talk a good game but it actually proves to be pretty decent. The battery can stand an uninterrupted talk time of up to 14 Hours and offers a standby time as long as 514 Hours. If I had to point out a flaw, that would surely be its VGA Selfie snapper. But if you could settle with a capacious battery at the expense of your love for Selfies, you can go for it.

Other than a huge battery, its splash resistant feature might engage some consumers (but don’t test it with anything more than a splash of water). The device is powered by a 1.3 GHz MediaTek MT6735P Quad-core SoC paired with Mali-T720 GPU and 2GB RAM. Its huge battery and a price tag of 6,999 INR makes it an easy recommendation in its range.
