Phone Arena confirms these are the 11 best smartphones in 2021

The best iPhone phone right now: Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max

Because the iPhone 13 Pro Max has not been revealed yet, it is clear that the throne belongs to the iPhone 12 Pro Max launched late last year. The device is favored not only because of its stronger configuration, the new iOS is better, but also in the new design with thin, square borders that look much more impressive than previous generations.

However, the minus point of the device lies in the 60Hz screen that is inferior to competitors, large in size, quite heavy and does not include a charger in the box.

Best full-sized Android phone: Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

“And one potato this land”? Talking about the best full-sized Android phone, it can only be the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Although sales may not be as expected, it is undeniably an extremely valuable upgrade compared to last year’s S20 series. The device has a series of plus points such as a versatile main camera system, a super beautiful 120Hz screen, good battery life, a beautiful design and even support for the S Pen.

The minus point of this model lies in its somewhat oversized and heavy body, too low internal memory in the cheapest version, no memory card slot, charger or headset in the box, a new fingerprint sensor is still available. bit slow.

Best stylus Android phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra

The title of the best large Android phone went to the S21 Ultra, so the Note 20 Ultra had to “come out” with another title. The device is still highly appreciated by Phone Arena for its luxurious design, smooth performance, good quality camera, much improved S Pen, excellent screen and many attractive features.

However, Phone Arena still has a few unsatisfactory points in the Note 20 Ultra: the price is too high, the size is too large and the battery life is temporary.

The phone with the most “terrible” hardware: Asus ROG Phone 5 Ultimate

If you want to own the best gaming phone today, the top choice is the ROG Phone 5 Ultimate. In addition to the most powerful configuration on the market, the device is also equipped with dozens of other features and characteristics to increase the gaming experience, from quality dual speakers, high-frequency AMOLED screen, buffalo battery, super-fast charging, set AirTrigger buttons, ROG accessories and a sleek design.

The only downside of this phone, according to Phone Arena, is that it is not widely available.

The most “balanced” phone: OnePlus 9

If looking for a smartphone with a reasonable price – configuration – size, OnePlus 9 is the true love. Phone Arena praised the device for its beautiful, neat design, impressive screen, fast performance and no-frills interface.

On the contrary, the device still has 2 minus points: the camera is at an acceptable level and the dual speakers are not very good.

Best compact iPhone phone: Apple iPhone 12 mini

Like the Galaxy S21 Ultra, low sales have nothing to do with product quality. iPhone 12 mini is still a very good phone in its own segment, it’s just that users are no longer interested in the small size.

The device is highly appreciated by Phone Arena because it has the same performance as the iPhone 12 Pro Max, the screen and camera are of the same quality, just cut a little bit and the back is integrated with Magsafe charger or good.

Praise a lot, but Phone Arena also criticizes a lot, typically the camera cluster is oversized, there is no charger or headset included in the box, battery life is too low, 60Hz screen and the choice of starting memory is only 64GB lacking.
