Google Pixel 6 Pro: (Still) The Best Android Smartphone 

The Google Pixel 6 Pro is the most successful model from the American firm in 2021. Much more than a premium photophone with its high-end performance, its superb screen and its very neat finishes, the flagship delivers a complete experience on the OS of its manufacturer.

Apple IPhone 13 Pro: The Best IOS Smartphone

It is not a revolution in itself, the iPhone 13 Pro being in line with its predecessor. But Apple serves us a complete smartphone that is difficult to fault. Too bad its price is higher than that of the Google Pixel 6 Pro which performs in the same areas. Despite everything, the improvements made on the side of the screen, the photo / video part and the autonomy are enough to make it a must have for all regulars of iOS.

Google Pixel 6: The Best Smartphone At $ 600

Impeccable finishes, remarkable camera, a good performance/autonomy mix and above all an excellent quality/price ratio, Google’s innovations to make it a useful and pleasant smartphone on a daily basis have undeniably borne fruit, helped in this by the new processor Tensor which opened the game in artificial intelligence. We wholeheartedly recommend the Pixel 6 to anyone looking for a fun and practical Android smartphone with unparalleled photo capabilities.

Realme 9 Pro+: The Best Smartphone Under $ 500

The Realme 9 Pro+ is an excellent vintage. It features a sublime, carefully calibrated screen, formidable performance, excellent wide-angle and amazing battery life. Difficult to blame him for something, he dominates the competition in his price segment.

OnePlus Nord 2: The Best Smartphone Under $ 400

OnePlus made an impression with its first Nord. A solid return of the brand to the mid-range market and a test transformed by this second generation. The OnePlus Nord 2 indeed displays a very attractive technical sheet with acceptable concessions. The OnePlus 9 series is in our opinion the most threatened by this smartphone which shares many of its characteristics but whose starting price is much lower: from 719$ and 919$.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro: the best value for money under $300

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro has almost everything to please: a good AMOLED screen and 120 Hz for an ultra-smooth experience, a technical configuration that does the job, an effective photo part even in low light thanks to its excellent main sensor and its night mode, attractive battery life and really fast charging. The smartphone is not 5G compatible but at this price, it is difficult to hold it against it.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 11: The Best Value For Money Around $ 200

OLED screen and 90 Hz, very good autonomy and more than honest performance, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 does almost everything like its big brothers and therefore has the arguments to become a reference in the segment of smartphones under $ 200 . The Chinese manufacturer can however suffer from cannibalization between the old and the new generation since the Redmi Note 10 Pro, launched last year at $ 299 combines much more premium characteristics.
