Top-Rated Phones, Ranked
The Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact offers everything you want from a flagship smartphone in a smaller package. While it’s a little chunky and doesn’t have the best camera on the market, it’s the best “small” phone on the market.
A phone with a near-flagship feel, balancing high-end features and mid-range pricing.
Samsung had high hopes of bringing in as much excitement for the S22 as was had for the S21. However, it seems they didn’t go far enough away from the original to justify upgrading. Still, if your phone is a few generations old, the S22 offers one of the best Android experiences available.
A well-rounded device with impressive features that cater to a range of everyday needs and preferences.
A strong choice for gaming enthusiasts, but average daily usage and camera abilities might not satisfy everyone.
