Samsung M34 should be good enough, will get 4 OS updates but its biggest con is a bit weak SoC for the price.

Moto G54 is a good option around 15k as well, with better SoC & lighter OS (will get just android 14 update though). No AMOLED though.

Are there good options from BKK group phones ?

Are there some better phones if I up my budget to 20K

Why such a preference?

Anyways, take your pick from whatever is available from Realme or iQoo.
