      Samin Rahman, 26 Nov 2021Ops, You Just Miss the best phone of the year Google Pixel ... moreExactly, GSMARENA has given Pixel 6 a better star score compared to Motorola Edge 20 Pro yet the best one in the list under 700 is still the Motorola phone.

      I suspect this list is not generated automatically and they don't have enough time to update this manually with every phone release.

        The battery life section is strange to say... Where is Moto G10, Moto G50, Sony Xperia 10 III, Redmi 9T? All these phones are from 2021 and have a much battery life than some phones on your list yet you didn't include them.

But except for the proposed pricing, self-upgrading hardware and the feature to grant wishes are possible under the laws of physics. In the future, humans can be androids, the phone is part of the human itself.
                    Today, phones can already "grant" the users' wishes to some extent.

                              But giving apple the crown is like saying "we went with what everyone wants to hear"

                                  How come you didn't include the Asus Zenfone 8 in compact phones. It's the only current Android phone available that is both a flagship, compact, cheap (for a flagship).... I mean...

How about I say we contact one of Gsmarena official members, maybe then they'll start adding in phones. Right now there are too many comments for them to read through.
