Pixel 5 and 4a, 4a 5G have excellent cameras AT their price range. They cannot be compared to more expensive phones like the Note series and iphones. There should be a category of Best Value phones.

Although Nord is a better phone, clearly, Realme 7 and other phones are more affordable.

PaidReviewer, 14 Dec 2020This year was a disappointing year for smartphones imo.Agreed.
As demonstrated by TWO flawed Samsung products somehow topping categories here.

Imo. Flagship killer is a phone that has a performance, chipset, and specs of a flagship at a midrange price. So i choose mi10t pro over poco f2 pro for high refresh screen which is the highlight for flagships this year.

Performance and battery life plus good screen are more important than camera and design. Others may disagree.

Half of people is stupid voting everywhere for samsung, iphone is more power, better camera phone. Oneplus Xiaomi also better than samsung, I think realme too.

For me the S20 FE 5G is a true flagship killer - actively better than the actual flagships in Exynos markets, for less. I voted for it in that category but wanted to vote for the 12 mini - which seems to be going for a different type of flagship killing, namely "killing the inevitability that a flagship must be a phablet".

Even though i voted for samsung on any choice for the fun of it 😂, I must say that finally I got impressed by an Iphone. I've owned two iphones, and really liked an Iphone 5S that used for a brief period of time.
So I waited for the crowd impatience to see the new iphone in the shelves to fade away and finally got a quality time with the mini, 12, 12pro and 12pro max. And I must tell that this time around I feel they are finally worthy (forgive me apple fans if I'm being rude to you).
Slightly overpriced, though, but a strong candidate nevertheless.

You're posting "camera phones" and didn't give shit to "gaming phones"? That's just absurd. Ya ya I know the camera isn't as good as other but hey! They're as good as any of the flagships in other categories. Maybe you guys could have added them too as "gaming phones".

'Best Flagship of 2020' for me has to be the OnePlus 8 Pro. It was because of this particular phone that stopped me from buying the Sony Xperia 1 ii. Yes, it doesn't have a 3.5mm audio jack unlike the Sony but the camera hardware can definitely give the Sony a run for its money. Huawei Mate 40 Pro is alright, but I'd take the vanilla Mate 40 all day instead.
'Best Flagship Killer of 2020' for me goes to the Apple iPhone 12 mini. It's basically an iPhone 12 but in a much smaller package and I definitely welcome that. It definitely has been really a while since we saw a smartphone with a compact size.
Despite not being my favourite brand, the Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra gets my vote for 'Best Camera phone of 2020'. Finally, there is some love for OmniVison's OV48C sensor. A Quad Bayer camera sensor with the same physical size as Samsung's 108MP camera but with a much larger native pixel size and the ability to record 8K video resolution? That alone gets my solid thumbs up.
