The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is a well-rounded foldable with strong cameras, clean software, a reliable pair of displays, and durability credentials most foldable rivals can't match.
The Pixel 11 Pro Fold is a well-rounded foldable with strong cameras, clean software, a reliable pair of displays, and durability credentials most foldable rivals can't match.
The Pixel 11 Pro XL is an excellent daily driver, a superb all-rounder, and it has the best camera on any Android phone I have tested. The display is flagship-tier, the battery lasts all day, the software is clean, and the support commitment remains top-tier.
If you want a pocketable tablet for reading and multi-tasking, and you're willing to give up optical zoom and stylus support to get it, the Z Fold 8 delivers.
Similar to the Mini 12, the Fujifilm Instax Mini 13 is among the best entry-level instant cameras you can buy for $93.95. It plays things safe and builds on many of the things people already love.
The Xiaomi 17T Pro is a textbook value flagship. It nails the things that matter most day to day — flagship-class performance, a bright display that sustains its brightness, an enormous battery, and fast charging — and it does it all for a price no flagship can beat.
The DJI Osmo 360 may be the company's first 360-degree camera, but you wouldn't be able to tell by using it. It's a refined, powerful action camera with a range of features that others simply don't offer.
Again, that's not surprising, and to be clear, you should still expect to be able to play demanding games on the phone without issue. But after some time playing those games, the phone will heat up a bit, and you won't be getting the same frame rates as you did when you started.
The Xiaomi 17 Ultra is representative of what the best of the best Android phones right now can be. It gets the basics right, like offering top-level performance and a great-looking screen, but it goes the extra mile in one area specifically — the camera.
The OnePlus 15 is an excellent phone. It's just not the best at every single thing.
The Xiaomi 15T Pro has a lot going for it. With a sleek design, a great camera, and solid performance, there's really nothing bad about it.
The Insta360 X5 is not just a spec bump. It's a full-on upgrade across the board.
The Google Pixel 9a is more of the same, in a good way. It performs very well for a phone in this price range, plus it has an excellent software experience, a great camera, and helpful features.
If you're looking for a flagship Android experience at under $900, this is about as good as you can get right now.
If you want a super thin phone (which makes sense — foldables can get thick), then the Magic V3 is the foldable to buy. But if you want the best software experience, then the Pixel 9 Pro or the OnePlus Open are better choices.
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra is a worthy alternative to the other top flagships of the day, like the Galaxy S24 Ultra and Honor Magic6 Pro.
The Xiaomi 14 is a worthy upgrade over the Xiaomi 13. The device offers fast performance, a great camera, and a stunning screen.
Honor's recent flagship phones have been technically excellent, and the Magic6 Pro is no exception to that rule. It's easily one of the best phones you can get right now, with top-tier performance, a stunning screen, and a flagship-level camera.
If you're looking for a flagship-tier phone at a lower price, this is it.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is yet another killer Android phone in the S series. Arguably, the device is the best Android phone you can get right now — thanks to its excellent camera, top-tier performance, handy S Pen, and stunning display.
The DJI Mini 4 Pro is a reasonable step forward for the DJI Mini series. It adds a few handy new camera tricks and better syncing, on top of better obstacle sensing.
The GoPro Hero12 Black doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it does add tons of subtle improvements -- and it's the best action cam out there.
I'm a sucker for a great Pixel phone. I love the software experience, and I really like how streamlined it all feels compared to Samsung's software.
The Google Pixel 7a may be the most expensive "budget" Pixel phone, but it also gets a series of improvements that make it the best choice in its price range.
The DJI Mavic 3 Pro is a meaningful improvement over the standard DJI Mavic 3 — but only for those who really want the extra camera for more versatile options. That said, it certainly exceeds at this — the drone is able to capture great footage and is very easy to fly.
