The Infinix GT 20 Pro wins out in the gaming comparison test owing to its superior gaming prowess and thermal management.
Winner: Infinix GT 20 Pro
Verdict
The Infinix GT 20 Pro emerges as the clear winner in our performance comparison against the Nothing Phone (2a). The former outperforms both in synthetic benchmarks and real-world tests. If you want top-notch performance in a smartphone under Rs 25,000, the Infinix GT 20 Pro is an easy recommendation.
The Nothing Phone (2a), in comparison, is not a gaming device geared towards delivering the best performance output. Instead, it offers a unique design, a great user experience thanks to a stock Android-like UI, and reliable day-to-day battery life. If these aspects appeal to you, the Nothing Phone (2a) is a good option to consider at this price point.
