you might want a specialized gaming
phone or you might want a phone that isnot so gigantic or you might want a the
budget phone we'll explore all the best options but first, let's start with these two new between them, the galaxy is the onethat has the more versatile camera
systemwith two zoom lenses at three times zoom
and 10 times zoom which gives you incredibly clear photos and videos that you just can not get on the iPhone and it also has120hz fast refresh rate screen for super-smooth scrolling that I really love and that you don't quite get on the
iPhonethe galaxy also runs on android which is
the more an open ecosystem that allows you to
customize your phone any way you like and you have a fingerprint scanner instead of face
recognition which comes in handy for the mask-wearing times that we live in.I also personally love that the galax
charges a bit faster in just about an hour while the iPhone takes nearly 2hours for a full charge, by the way, there is no charger in the box with these two that's the latesttrend and you have to spend 20 or 30 dollars separately
to get one the iPhone while lacking a bit in the cool feature department and the camera zoom tricksruns the very dependable and familiar ios and
has the faster processor that beats the galaxy in benchmarksand it is more future proof the ios
the software also feels a bit more refined
andprettier apple's emoji for example look
a lot better if you're texting you also have iMessage and apple willdeliver software updates for about five years while
the galaxy only gets three years of software updates and they will also arrive with a bigger delay on the galaxy, of course, you also need an iPhone if youwant to use the popular apple watch
and the iPhone fits in nicely.apple ecosystem with features like
airdrop for fast wireless sharingairplay for smart speakers and the gadgets like AirPods and air tags and so many other cool accessories you get their full benefits with the iPhone by the way, this is a good time to say that if like me you find the flat sideson the iPhone 12 pro max a bit
off-putting and the design is a bit too uncomfortable iPhone 11 pro max is
still available at all carriers and it
actually costsless the only major thing that it's
missing is5g connectivity but 5g is still not much faster than the current,the camera quality on the 11 pro max is not
much differentso you're not missing out on much and
the 11 Promax model has actually a bigger battery than the newer one and speaking of options you also have the newest one plus 9pro which is another android phone to consider except
for the galaxy oneplus has put the Hasselblad camera maker named its camera system but we found that the camera is still a tiny bit behind galaxy phones andiPhones however the one plus 9 pro
actually, felt zippier than the galaxy it has doubled the storage at a slightly lower price and it has some superpowers like a charger in the box and the full charge in half an hour which is just insane and a really good extra at 1070 dollars.it's a good alternative
especially if you don't like Samsung'sinterface or if you just want adifferent phone with a super clean
interface the way, I personally find the price on the 9 probits too high but insteadI would recommend you check out the one plus
8 prolast year's model which still has 120
hertz screenstill has an excellent camera and only
offers slightlyless insane but still super fast
charging speeds and all of that at the much morereasonable price of seven hundred dollars okay
while I personally love these phones I have to say that I find them a bit too big and bulky and actuallyuncomfortable for me personally so i
don't actually use any of them as my daily driver if you're like me and want a smallerphone here are your best options for
2021.we have the iPhone 12 and then the
galaxy s21yes folks not much variety in terms of brands but that's just becauseApple and Samsung have really made some
great devicesat great prices so it's hard to
recommendmuch else the same as before applies
here get the iPhone12 the smaller model if you value the industry-leading speeds ofapple processors this phone is really
fast plus get it for the five years of softwareupdates the great camera and video quality and
of course for the ios ecosystem with the apple watch and all the restnow the galaxy s21 is pleasingly compact
and in my opinionit's the best looking phone with that
beautifuland gold dual-tone style it's
made of plastic. I personally don't mind as it
still feels very solidly put together and its advantage over the iPhone isagain that it actually has a zoom camera
and it captures much cleaner photos and videos while looming plus it's an android phone with all thecustomization benefits
both of these will run you around 800.dollars actually the galaxy can be found
at around 700currently, so it's also a bit cheaper what about the rest of the phonesif you want a super compact phone apple
has made the iPhone 12 miniwhich is not super popular but it's the the the
only option for a powerful phoneat a much tinier scale but be warned
that its battery life is definitely onthe short side and it won't last you a
day with heavier useI also think that google pixel 5 is
not quite worth getting this yearunless you really really want that clean
google lookand want a compact phone the google
pixel 5 is just a bit too slow compared to the current competition aa bit too expensive for what it is
plus it's definitely got the most boringdesign of the bunch
also, let's talk about which are the best phones to buy if you're on a budgetyou have two standout options here the
new Samsung galaxya52 5g model and then the google pixel
4a 5gand among these two the galaxy is the newer and way more powerful but also a bit more expensive optionstill, it would be my personal favorite
it's got 120 hertz.The fast refresh rate screen it's got a
massive two-day battery lifewhich is a huge advantage and arguably
better looks now you can get the pixel if you want to save up even more and while the galaxy has got a very good camera systemthere is something about that hdr magic
on the pixel that just makes its photos look a bit betterespecially so in low light and that
camerais a bit more dependable finally you
have quote-unquoteother phones the gamers on our team
would kill me if I don't mention therog phone 5 which is optimized for
gamingfrom the looks to the dedicated gaming
controls andshoulder buttons and specialized
accessories it's a gaming powerhouse sosuper-powerful phone with 16
gigabytes of ramthe latest snapdragon triple a chip well
thought out coolingand the massive 6 000 milliamp-hour battery that
keeps the lights on for far longer than mainstream phones you don't quite get the best camera.the system here and the phone is on the
bigger and bulkier side but if you're a gamer you probably don'tcare much about that
now there is also a bunch of other phones that I have left out, for example, the moto g power is probably your best option with incredible three-day battery life if you're on a super low budget we're talking less than 250 dollars and then there are other phone brands likeXiaomi is making some excellent phones at
different price ranges but they're not available in us and we won't cover them in this video ialso cannot honestly recommend the
foldable phone right now in 2021, the galaxy z42 is thebig name in the space and your best option but
it's also a bit outdated currentlyespecially compared to the galaxy s21
ultraplus it's a gigantic phone that weighs a
tonand costs you nearly two grand so if you really want a foldable phoneit seems like waiting a bit to see the
newer devices launcha bit later in the year is the smarter
move so let's call it a day at this I hope that's been useful and if it wassubscribe to the channel to see more
from us by the way, I would be really curious tohear your reasons for picking the phone
that you have picked the comments I'm VIC this is the phone
