    I don’t know if you noticed, but our governments are taking huge draconian power-grabs.
    They salivate at the thought of imposing social credit score systems around the world.
    Maybe now isn’t the best time to be carrying around “Smartphones”
    YOU are the product.

    I am proud of my S21 Ultra. The camaras are amazing. I had two people randomly switch from Iphone to the S21 ultra because they were amazed by the video quality and funny thing is that I was just showing them videos of my dog lol.

    iPhone 13 pro
    Google Pixel 6
    GS Flip 3

    Not in that order but only because I own these three phones.

    I have the 13 Pro Max. I agree with all of the Android 12 and Pixel 6 love.

    Very happy with the Galaxy S20 FE, which wasn’t part of this list. Got a huge deal with a trade-in of $300 on my old S9, dropping the price to $399 and it does everything I want. Samsung kept the SD slot in place for extra storage and the missing headphone jack is a nonissue for me since I use Samsung’s ear buds+. If you’re looking for value, this may be a good one.

    • Baba Gandu

      December 31, 2021 at 6:25 pm

      S21 FE supposed to be released soon

    • Golf Fanatic

      December 31, 2021 at 7:08 pm

      @Baba Gandu Yep but for a lot more money. You have to measure the bang for the buck.

  27. Jay White

    December 30, 2021 at 4:02 am

    iPhone 13 Pro max I think is the best smart phone because of the bigger battery, promotion display and cameras

  28. Nguyen Viet

    December 30, 2021 at 4:42 am

    Its tough choice for me now choosing between pixel 6 and mi 12 6.2in. I love the mi 12 design make pixel 6 still a bit chunky but losing out on fantastic os system in pixel is major problem.

    Great video but Patrick failed to stick the landing, In naming the a Pixel 6 as an Editor’s Choice, he called it the Pixel 6A twice.

    So, here a question. What smartphone in 2021 under $500/£500/€500 (apart from an iPhone or an old Pixel) has the most accurate front and selfie camera photo quality in terms of skin tones and dynamic range? I will wait. Cheers.
