Our team tests dozens of devices each quarter — here's what we'd actually spend our own money on.
The camera system is genuinely a step ahead, and battery life finally lasts a heavy day without a top-up. Pricey, but it's the one to beat.
Best OverallThat built-in stylus plus the huge, bright display makes it the productivity king. Bulky in a pocket, but nothing else does this much.
Best AndroidThe M4 Pro chip chews through 4K edits and exports silently. It's an investment, but it'll stay fast for years.
Best PremiumFast charging that's honestly faster than you'll believe, flagship specs, and it undercuts the big names by a couple hundred dollars.
Best ValueWith the Magic Keyboard it nearly replaces a laptop for writing and light editing. The screen is stunning for the price of a good phone.

A few things worth thinking about before you hit buy — from people who return the ones that don't cut it.
Scrolling, messaging and streaming? Almost any current chip is overkill. But if you game, edit video, or keep 30 tabs open, spend up for the top-tier processor — it's the one thing you can't upgrade later.
Base models with 128GB fill up fast once you shoot 4K video and install a few big games. If cloud isn't your thing, jump to 256GB or 512GB — you can't add a card to most flagships.
A bigger battery helps, but display efficiency and chip generation matter just as much. Check real-world screen-on-time reviews rather than the raw number on the box.
If you already own a laptop, watch or earbuds from one brand, staying in that family unlocks handoff, shared clipboard and easy pairing. Switching brands often means leaving those conveniences behind.
Longer software-update commitments and repairable designs keep a phone or laptop useful far past the warranty. A slightly pricier device with 5+ years of updates usually beats a cheap one abandoned in two.
Real reviews from folks who bought their gear here.
★★★★★"Switched from an old Pixel to the S25 Ultra mostly for the camera and the S Pen, and honestly the zoom is ridiculous — I got clean shots of my kid's soccer game from across the field. Only gripe is it's a chunky phone, took me a week to stop dropping it on my face at night. Shipping was two days like they promised."
★★★★★"Bought the MacBook Pro 16 for freelance video work after my old laptop started sounding like a jet engine on export. This thing exports a 20-minute 4K project in the time it takes to grab coffee and doesn't even get warm. It's expensive, no way around that, but the price-match knocked $150 off which softened the blow."
★★★★"Grabbed the OnePlus 13 because I couldn't justify flagship money and wow, the 100W charger is not a gimmick — 15 minutes and I'm basically full. Camera's good, not quite Pixel-level in low light if I'm being picky. For the price I paid versus the big names, no regrets at all. Return window gave me peace of mind too."
