No offense but, I feel GSMArena being it as one of a big viewing site of the world's mobile phones but actually tested or tried that few.
Worse off, the 1st of its list is an iPhone.
If wanna be fair, go for at least 2 categories of phones; flagship and flagship killer OR budget.
Then take at least 2 phones from each brand to compare and share out.
Apple shld not have too much category as iPhone 15, 15+, 15 Pro max etc are just gimmicks of the same build to try suit to different people or make them think they are using flagship when they are not.
Just stick to the best, or at least to a range of $ so the comparison is fair.

What is better is the OS, indeed it's more optimized and doesn't have additional layer to process.

I know a lot of people argue about what's better... but EVERY SINGLE Android I ever owned started to lag whereas my Apple devices NEVER do. So it's an easy pick for me

Kiwi, 05 Mar 2025Moto edge 50 Neo...Edge 50 neo has a below average processor. It might be fine now (out of the box), but after let's say next Android update, it sure will start to lag out and glitch out. Just like one of the Galaxy A series I bought (and regret doing so). After an update, whenever I pull down the notification bar, the whole phone freezes noticeably for 2 seconds and it destroys the smooth experience.

Nowadays midrange phones are bland. I need a new phone, but what do I switch to? Samsung budget phones and midrangers are too big. Next. Xiaomi budget phones and midrangers are too big and also they have bad software AND bad processors. Next. Motorola has slightly more compact phones, but their software is a no go. Next. Vivo phones seem great, but they are next to non existent in my country. Next. I'm just done with it, no good options. I'm done, we need to boycott the tech giants for making phones too big!! There has been no greater time to come back to a brick phone or a flip phone.

Why is this guide half of it filled with Xiaomi phones?
I understand that they are good but not everyone a Xiaomi fan so that makes this guide kind of useless since you can just look for great phones for whatever propose you are buying it for
(The best camera phones should be both Xiaomi 15 ultra and Vivo X200 pro)

Great guide for anyone looking for a new smartphone! 📱✨ Along with a good phone, having the right accessories can make a difference. I’ve been using an LED desk lamp with fast charging and a USB port—really handy for everyday use. 🔌💡
