Our Take
While looking at the spec sheets all three smartphones come with similar screen sizes. The size is perfect to carry in a pocket and it is not too small so it is easier to use while reading, browsing the internet or watching movies. The battery capacity is also the same despite being a budget offering.
Micromax In 1b and Poco C3 offers 10W fast charging support. On the other hand, Samsung Galaxy M02 does not include a fast charger. Poco smartphone comes with an additional rear camera and it also offers a larger RAM which means the more RAM the more applications can run at the same time and makes the phone faster.
