[T]he Xiaomi 14 Ultra frankly has to be right up at the very top of your list.
[T]he Xiaomi 14 Ultra frankly has to be right up at the very top of your list.
Absolutely one of my most favorite compact smartphones. It may be a bit of a mucky pup with that shiny design, but the absolutely smashing performance, the excellent battery life, the highly dependable camera, it ticks pretty much everything about this dinky wee blower.
[I]t certainly does the job for all of those glamour pics and that right there my lovelies in a delicious wee nutshell is the fresh new Honor Magic 6 Pro and it's a bit of a banger of a flagship all right around even if it is a serious chunker.
You got some slick Hasselblad camera tech on there, excellent battery life, great performance; could possibly be my new favorite foldable.
While it's nothing particularly original or special, the Xiaomi 13T Pro definitely ticks all of those lovely flagship boxes.
[T]hose gripes aside, if you do want something that's incredibly dinky to fit inside of your pocket and a very slick bit of hardware indeed, well, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is well worth considering.
I gotta say, even though I'm not really a massive fan of these almighty bendy blowers, I do prefer the likes of the flip style efforts which are a lot more compact, I did really enjoy my time with this big old beast.
The Google Pixel Fold certainly is a fantastic effort for a first foldable from Google. I wasn't expecting it to be quite this good.
When it comes to the battery life and recording video, the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max is absolutely up there with the very best out there right now.
[I]t does offer pretty stunning value for money at this sort of price point.
[A]lmost every aspect of this smartphone is bloody marvelous, everything apart from, obviously, that sky-high asking price.
Aside from that they are equally awesome: great battery life, pretty decent performance, not the best out there but certainly good enough even if you want to do a good bit of gaming, refined design, exceptional camera tech, and just all around great software smarts as well.
[I]t is a highly enjoyable everyday blower and one that is pretty much perfect for any amateur photographers who want great looking pics and home movies with minimal effort.
So that right there is my full final frank review of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 foldable phone after using it as my full time blower, and I gotta say I don't think it's quite for me.
I do still like it after half a year, but I got to say I'm definitely more enamored with its smaller siblings still, especially the fact that I've seen a lot those bugs on that one randomly again.
[T]his is one of the best around right now, churning out gorgeous photos nine times out of ten with little real effort.
I gotta say I have enjoyed using it as my personal smartphone. There's very little to complain about really beyond the usual bugbear such as no headphone jack, no expandable storage, etc.
[T]he Xiaomi 12 Pro justifies its sky-high price by being pretty bloody good and basically almost everywhere.
[T]he vivo iQOO 9 Pro, and I gotta say, even though it's bloody massive which is normally not a good thing for me with my stumpy little fingers and such forth, I absolutely adored using this thing.
[O]verall I gotta say it's still my favorite iPhone.
If you're a power user who wants to keep plugging away all day and you really get on well with iOS, you've got lots of other Apple kit in your homestead, and also a very, very healthy savings account, then sure, go for it.
The Vivo X60 Pro is a good phone I have enjoyed using as my full-time handset for the past week, but unfortunately this sort of price point is definitely rather expensive for what you get in terms of the general overall experience compared with some rivals.
If you're a more demanding user but you don't want to stretch up to the absolutely silly prices that the likes of Apple and Samsung charge for some of their more premium kit, then the OnePlus 9 Pro is a worthy option [...]
The Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra is absolutely bat mental, off its rocker, and I think I kind of love it a bit. You'll certainly struggle to find a smartphone that's quite so unapologetically flamboyant in 2021 beyond the usual foldy bendy efforts.
