No Huawei Mate 60 Pro Plus which topped the DXOMark score?

These days GSMA looks lazy by not reviewing phones that weren't handed to them.

They should make an effort to buy phones such as the Mate 60 Pro themselves for review instead of waiting for sponsors.

Those days GSMArena were THE source of information for mobile phone. Be it news, specs, reviews. No other sites hold such authority.. But now sigh.. You guys really have let down your predecessors.. Sigh..

    In the specs GSMarena wrote video modes like Dolby vision 4k60 and hdr10+ and LOG video

    But they totally omitted it in the review, I really wanted to know more because not a lot of android smartphones have Dolby vision video recording support or even The LOG I thought the 15 pro was the first mainstream smartphone but this 13 pro came months before it and GSMarena wrote LOG in the specs

    Can somebody please explain this to me

              So now gsmarena knows the s23 ultra photos were overprocessed and the 14 pro max held that title for overprocessed photos here. And where the hell is the 14 pro max? So all of a sudden it's not the 3rd anymore

                    How is Sony not topping this chart? Is it best camera phones or best phone at making over sharpned HDR rubbish? The reason why your reviews always mention the natural looks of Sony it's because they actually make good cameras and know what they are doing. No need to hide under extreme processing.
                    Hint: It's the only phone maker with a serious photography branch and main supplier for imagery hardware.

                        Best Android phone for video?

                          tzmkira002, 13 Feb 2023Mate 50 Pro is clearly betterthe p60 pro is much more better for sure, because of that new telephoto lens. It may be the best or one of the best camera smartphones money can buy right now.

                            Super Android 22 CRY, 02 May 2023Samsung is the best so you only have to cry harder. No matt... morewell, samsung is not always the best when it comes to camera, but they were always the best when it comes to video stabilization, the stabilization in the samsung s23 ultra is so superb and out of this world if you ask me. This is the first time that I have been surprised and in love with a samsung flagship phone, great job for samsung for getting the S23 ultra into the market. But as always samsung doesn't always have the best camera, since brands have their pros and cons when it comes to smartphone cameras, so cry and scream on the top of your lungs samsung die - hard fan.

                              gsmarena should replace the Xiaomi 12 Lite with the Pixel 7 and add the Find X6 Pro to this list unless you are payed to post some specific phones

                                  Super Android 22, 22 Apr 2023Im really struggling to see how the s23u is "best came... moreSamsung is the best so you only have to cry harder. No matter how much effort you put at the top of your lungs, you'll cry again because you can't handle reality!

                                    Im really struggling to see how the s23u is "best camera smartphone" when they've literally done tests proving its not. I just dont get how GSM still try and push the ultra from samsungs flagship line with so much ignorance and biased.

                                    Its not the best cameraphone (puttting 2 average sensors on just so it can do 2 different lengths doesnt make it good), its main sensor is a numbers gimmick and again has been proven it gets out performed by the imx 989. Its not like there isnt other phones with 2 telephoto sensors, a main and UW.

                                    Ugly phone, way too heavy, doesnt have the best screen even though everyone uses samsung screens, has a pointless pen that could be removed for way better hardware features. Average UI, not better performance with an overclocked SoC, one of the slowest charging on a flagship, stupidly sloe wireless and reverse wireless, no extra hardware features like 360° NFC, DP connection through usb c, an actual face unlock sensor, actual improvments with battery materials and tech, high pwm screen or touch sampling rate.

                                    The biggest laugh is its replaced the s22u as "best cameraphone" which wasnt even in the top 5 of best phones or cameraphones... Come on GSM 🥱🤨😮‍💨

                                      Anonymous, 28 Mar 2023It is very bad at night! (You can see CNET review)Not true, pixels actually have some of the best low light pictures on the market. The weird thing is doing a blind photo test peoples favourite night pics were from the oppo find x5 pro, pixel 6a and pixel 7 pro (not in that order). They all absolutely destroy the iphone 14 pro max (they messed up swapping to the new 48mp main).
