Editorial report

Lava Agni 3 8 GB / 256 GB / India technical sheet

The Lava Agni 3 suits buyers looking for a versatile camera phone with broad connectivity, but its battery has less capacity than most phones of its time and its 212 g weight is higher than most.

Its camera is a standout: the telephoto camera's 3x optical zoom is among the best offered by phones of its time, and the 1/1.56″ main camera sensor is larger than most. The main camera also has optical image stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps. The 6.78″ AMOLED display has a 120 Hz refresh rate and 429 ppi; its pixel density is higher than most, although the display overall is typical. Its 90.1 % screen-to-body ratio is also better than most.

Connectivity is better than that of most phones launched around the same time. The phone supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, and dual SIM. Its 5,000 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 66 W fast charging is faster than most; the battery overall is typical.

This version pairs 8 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage. The Lava Agni 3 is also sold with 8 GB / 256 GB, but its storage is not expandable. Overall, it stands better than most phones launched around the same time, with a NeoScore of 7.1. It is a particularly good fit for buyers who prioritize camera versatility and extensive connectivity.
