It’s a good phone, and you’re not likely to be disappointed with it in day-to-day use unless you’re a gamer, but it takes more to really be great.
If you want a foldable that feels slim, practical, powerful, and unusually easy to live with, the Magic V6 makes a very convincing case for itself.
The OPPO Find X9 Ultra is a true flagship with a clear camera-first identity, but what makes it stand out is how little it sacrifices elsewhere.
The vivo X300 Ultra is one of the most coherent camera-first flagships to arrive in years.
The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is the very definition of ‘playing it safe’. In so many ways, this is the exact same phone as the S25 Ultra, just with a slightly faster processor.
Like the Pixel 9a before (too much like it, in fact), the Pixel 10a brings little to get excited about.
The OnePlus 15 proves a solid follow-up to the excellent phone it replaces. It comes with some decent under-the-hood upgrades that give it some of the best performance we’ve seen from a phone, alongside astounding battery life.
While it's still very recognizable as an iPhone, the iPhone 17 Pro Max is probably the biggest change to Apple’s flagship devices in a few years.
The Vivo X200 FE stands out as a well-rounded contender in the world of compact smartphones. It combines a clean, modern design with reliable performance, all in a size that feels comfortable for everyday use.
The Nothing Phone 3 is an interesting balancing act that just stepped over the line.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is everything I wanted out of a foldable: It’s faster, easier to use, and no longer has a weird aspect ratio that makes everything look like it's getting squeezed.
If you get the Pixel 9a, you won’t be getting a bad phone, but if you want something better, you can just wait for a discount.
The OnePlus 13 is simply brilliant at just about every turn. Its performance is superb, and you get to enjoy that channeled through an elegant design and gorgeous display.
Samsung really needed near-perfection this year, and all it delivered was greatness.
The Vivo X200 Pro is a standout in the flagship smartphone market, thanks to its advanced camera system co-developed with Zeiss.
In this case, devices like the Google Pixel 7 Pro come at a much more approachable price point, offering more value if you want a camera that shoots almost as well and at incredible levels of zoom to boot.
The Pixel 7a is a great mid-range phone. It’s got high-tier processing, especially for AI-enhanced features like voice dictation, and holds up in everyday use.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is the best Android phone you can buy right now, but at $1299, it really needs to be.
With breath-taking elegance and ZEISS-tuned Triple Main Cameras, the Vivo V30 Pro offers unbeatable value to mobile shutterbugs and design-conscious buyers alike.
Beyond its impressive camera capabilities, the Vivo X100 Pro is a solid device with a vibrant and sharp display, responsive software, great build quality, and fast wired and wireless charge capabilities.
The hardware inside is robust, letting it keep up with even high demands for a phone. Its screen is excellent and serves as a powerful viewfinder for a respectable camera system that may have its faults but is still good all around.
If you can see through that and the high price tag, this is one of the best phones you can buy today, both for work and play.
In practice, the OnePlus 11 is a great device overall and a real return to form for the recently languishing Android phone maker.
