The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is just left to barely keep up. It’s good enough to be respectable, but it’s also a hard sell to anyone who took issues with those prior flaws.
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 is a peek into the future of foldables, of that I’m certainly convinced.
In my experience, the S26 Ultra is a fully complete device in almost every way. Excellent at pretty much everything, and I'm going to go into more detail as to why in this video from a Pixel user's perspective.
I’m not sure I can give a phone a better recommendation than this – for the foreseeable future, this is the device that’ll be on my person.
If you’re looking for a well-rounded, jack-of-all-trades device that delivers solid performance, excellent battery life, and a decent camera all packed into a genuinely great design, this is it.
Nothing Phone (3) is, as the sum of its parts, a good phone, just like the Phone (3a) series proved earlier this year. And the company’s vision for AI, while a little ambitious, definitely has some potential.
Combining a disappointing redesign with less impressive camera performance and a UI overhaul dramatically hoping you’ll recognize iOS in every nook and cranny just doesn’t feel like a path to success.
Simply put: This is the best OnePlus phone to date, and at $899, arguably the best Android phone period.
[A] 200MP camera, a huge battery, and the promise of software support for years to come, it’s a good deal across the board.
The Pixel 9a gets all the basics right with some Google flourishes and a design that helps differentiate it.
Ultimately, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is a perfectly fine, quite good flagship phone in 2025. It’s good at everything you want a smartphone to be good at, has some solid upgrades in the software and camera departments, and does it all for the same price.
It is far from a bad product. In fact, it’s the best A-series phone due to improvements in several key areas.
After a few weeks with this device, I truly do believe it would be, arguably, the best Android phone. It has excellent battery life, fast charging, a gorgeous display, a stunning camera, good biometric unlock options, and so much more.
The OnePlus 12 is a phone that I can actually love, and I’m happy to, because it’s actually really good.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is fundamentally a very good smartphone. It’s been exactly as stellar as I expected.
For a first-generation product, I’m blown away at just how good the Pixel Fold has proven itself to be. It’s so much better than it should be.
If you’re in the market for a foldable flip phone, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 is the most well-rounded choice. It’s super fast, has stellar hardware, and is more useful than ever.
The Pixel 7a's all the phone you do need though right now and it should last long into the future too.
Until then though, the Google Pixel 7 Pro remains six months on one of the best on Android, and it's definitely more than worth a look.
Despite its flaws and quirks, it’s a phone I keep picking back up. I keep wanting to use this device more often, and keep finding areas in my day-to-day where it actually makes sense to carry it.
So to sum up my thoughts after using the OnePlus 10 Pro for around a month at this point, I think all of its parts add up to a good smartphone, just not a great one.
No phone is perfect and the Google Pixel 6 Pro certainly is not. That said, there really are not many flagship smartphones out there at that same 899 dollar price that can offer such a comprehensive package.
The Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra is arguably one of the finest smartphones available today that in a couple of areas might even edge out the Galaxy S21 Ultra, provided you’re happy with some software quirks.
