Looking for the best gaming phone under 20,000 taka in Bangladesh for Free Fire and PUBG Mobile? This guide does not give you a “top 10” list with prices. Here is why, and what we give you instead.
Phone prices in Bangladesh change every few weeks. Models launch, sell out and get replaced fast. Any price table we printed today would be wrong soon. So instead, we show you how to judge any phone in this budget yourself: which chipsets, how much RAM, and which specs to avoid.
The chipset notes below come from public spec sheets and community benchmark discussions. We have not tested every phone ourselves. Use this as a checklist, then check today’s price and specs on official channels.
In order of importance for FF and PUBG:
Camera quality, thin design and fancy colors do nothing for gaming. Budget phones often spend money on cameras to look good in ads. For gaming, the chipset is where your taka should go.
Check the chipset name on the phone’s official spec page. Then match it to these rough groups. Exact performance varies by phone, because cooling and software matter too.
Stronger chips, like the Snapdragon 6 and 7-class or Dimensity 7000-series, usually sit above ৳20,000 in Bangladesh. Sometimes an older model drops into this budget during a discount. If you see one at an official store, it is worth a look. But do not count on it.
One thing to watch: two phones with the same chip can still perform differently. Cooling, software and the brand’s own tuning matter. Look for recent gaming tests of the exact model before deciding.
About “virtual RAM” or “extended RAM”: many phones advertise numbers like “8GB + 8GB”. The second number is storage used as backup memory. It is much slower than real RAM and does not help gaming much. Always look at the real RAM number.

Refresh rate: many budget phones now have 90Hz or 120Hz screens. That makes scrolling feel smooth. But in games, a budget chip often cannot reach 90 FPS. PUBG Mobile decides FPS options by device, so a 120Hz screen does not guarantee 90 FPS in PUBG.
Touch sampling rate: a higher touch rate can make controls feel a bit more responsive. It is a small bonus, not a deciding factor.
Screen size: 6.5 inches or more helps if you want to use claw controls with 4 fingers.
Battery: 5000mAh is common in this budget and is a good target. Faster charging is nice, but do not play while charging, because it heats the phone and can slow the game down.
You will see the same phone listed cheaper as “unofficial” or “international version”. That price gap is tempting. Here is what you trade for it:
Before buying any phone, check its IMEI with BTRC’s official IMEI check service. At the time of writing, this works by SMS (KYD, a space, then the IMEI, sent to 16002), but confirm the current method on BTRC’s website.
If a random page sells a phone far below the official price, be careful. It may be grey market, refurbished, or a scam. Always ask for an official receipt and warranty card.
Thinking bigger than a phone? We have similar honest guides on gaming laptop prices in Bangladesh and gaming PC prices in Bangladesh.
Yes, at sensible settings. Phones with a Helio G99, Dimensity 6000-series or similar chip and 6GB RAM or more usually run PUBG Mobile at moderate settings. Do not expect 90 FPS, since that is mostly limited to stronger devices.
4GB can run Free Fire, especially regular Free Fire on Smooth settings. For a new phone in 2026, 6GB gives more breathing room for updates and background apps. Avoid 2GB and 3GB variants for gaming.
Phone prices in Bangladesh change often, and models get replaced quickly. A price table would go out of date fast. Check the brand’s official Bangladesh website or authorized retailers for today’s price.
It is a risk. Unofficial phones usually lack brand warranty in Bangladesh and may face network registration issues under BTRC rules. Check the IMEI with BTRC before buying, and weigh the savings against losing warranty.
