The World's Best Smartphones

This year, we’ve seen a range of high end smartphones being released. Some were great, some were just about okay, a few were just experiments and some even exploded. As is usual, many of these have become top sellers, while others haven’t done well, despite their individual product strengths. The price bracket of these flagship devices has also increased — one could be under Rs 30,000, and another could be well above Rs 60,000. This makes things quite confusing, in a hugely crowded phone market. Let’s cut through the clutter, then, and take a look at the best flagship smartphones that have come out this year.

HTC 10

HTC’s well known aluminium unibody design shines in this smartphone. With a beautiful, quad HD 5.2-inch LCD, you are ready to watch those HD videos or check out any high resolution images and heavy webpages. The 12 MP camera at the back is quick to shoot photos, while the 5 MP front-facing camera can take very clear selfies. The 10 is equipped with the Snapdragon 820 chipset, along with 4 GB of RAM, while HTC’s own Sense UI is among the smoothest Android skins out there, doing its job very well. The phone comes in colours like Carbon Grey and Topaz Gold.

Price: Rs. 47,990
