Notes: First sold in 2025, so it falls outside the 2026 ranking year and will appear only in /2025/ lists. India launch 2025-08-20 (press coverage; press coverage says announced 21 Aug) at Rs 14,999 (6GB/128GB) and Rs 16,499 (8GB/128GB); Rs 13,999/15,499 headline figures include a Rs 1,000 bank offer. First sale 2025-08-25 12:00 IST on Amazon in most reports; one outlet says 24 Aug. Main camera is a 64MP Sony IMX682; sensor size and aperture not stated, left null (no derivation applied). 4K video appears only in a press coverage summary line, so video left null. UFS 3.1, hybrid microSD and Wi-Fi 6 are press coverage only. 0-100% in about 83 minutes is Lava's claim as reported by press coverage. Later street prices vary (MyMobileIndia effective Rs 15,998 against Rs 16,999 MRP, undated; press coverage out of stock) and no dated India price change was found, so no current row. Resolution (FHD+), headphone jack, NFC and charger-in-box not confirmed.
