Moto G7 review

Moto G7 review

Can the Moto G7 win back the budget crown for Motorola’s long-running G series? With a dual-lens camera, curved glass design, and a big display with a teardrop notch it’s certainly in with a chance. We tested it out fully to see how it measures up against increasingly stiff competition.

Motorola Moto G (2015) review

With the new Moto G, Motorola remains king of budget phones thanks to a low price of $180, 720p screen, 13-megapixel camera, and decent processor. Here’s our full review.

LG V60 ThinQ 5G Dual Screen review: Not quite a flagship

The LG V60 ThinQ isn't as expensive as the competition, but it performs well and offers excellent multitasking features. However, there are some trade-offs.
Nokia 8 V UW

Nokia 8 V 5G UW review: Just too expensive

Nokia is bringing the Nokia 8.3 to the U.S. in the form of the Nokia 8 V 5G UW, which is a Verizon-exclusive device. But at $700, is it worth considering?
Nokia XR20 rear panel.

Nokia XR20 review: A beautiful beast that’s built to last

The Nokia XR20 has a design that's prettier than most rugged phones, but does that mean it's not as tough as it needs to be? Don't worry, it definitely is.
google pixel 4 review pocket

Google Pixel 4 review: Smooth, but lacking stamina

The Google Pixel 4 is a slick, smooth, charmer of a smartphone, but it may run out of steam before you do. In this Pixel 4 review, you'll find a deep dive into the new software tricks, air gestures, and the wonderful camera, but there are flaws here in the design and the battery life.
Moto Z3 review

Moto Z3 review

Motorola’s flagship smartphone of 2018 looks exactly like its mid-range smartphone of 2018, and it’s powered by a processor from 2017. It may sound odd, but this $480 Verizon-exclusive device is a strong performer, and will be the first upgradable 5G smartphone next year.
Samsung Galaxy S20 Hand

Samsung Galaxy S20 Review: The smallest Galaxy S20 isn’t small enough

The Galaxy S20 is the smallest in the new S20 family, but it's not small enough to be a compact flagship phone, and therefore our gaze turns to the S20 Plus.

apple iphone xr review feat

iPhone XR review

Apple’s iPhone XS and XS Max are its flagship smartphones that do everything and anything. The iPhone XR is more interesting, because it looks futuristic like its siblings, but it’s cheaper, and more stylish. It comes in a range of colors like blue, red, coral, and yellow, and we can’t stop staring.

Apple iPhone 12 review: The best iPhone for most people

Motorola One 5G Ace vs Google Pixel 4a 5G

Motorola One 5G Ace review: Good at most things, great at nothing

The Motorola One 5G Ace comes in at $400 and has a lot to offer -- but can it compete with the likes of the Pixel 4a and iPhone SE?

Motorola Moto G Play review: A whole lot of phone for under $200

The Motorola Moto G Play is far from perfect, but at $170 it doesn't need to be perfect. Is it good enough, or should you keep saving?

Motorola Moto G review

Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro Review: Big in size, specs, and camera, but not in appeal

The Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro is big, with a large screen, 108MP camera, and a 5,000mAh battery. But do these big specs mean big appeal? We found out in our review.
Realme GT yellow and black back cover

Realme GT review: A midrange phone with a flagship processor inside

Don't let the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 inside the Realme GT fool you -- this isn't a Galaxy S21 rival. It's a powerful midrange phone with a good price.

The Nokia G50 in blue.

Nokia G50 review: Buy for the battery and software, not 5G

The Nokia G50 is a $300 with a 5G connection, which is a decent benefit but mostly for the future. Today, you'll want to get it for other reasons.

Motorola Moto G Pure review: Low in price, high in compromises

The Moto G Pure is Motorola's best value smartphone but it comes with a boatload of compromises, making it no bargain.

Moto Z4 review

Motorola’s new phone is the Moto Z4, a midrange device powered by the Snapdragon 675 with 4GB of RAM. It has a 48-megapixel rear camera and uses Quad Pixel technology for better low-light photos, but it’s not as impressive as it sounds.
iPhone 12 Mini

Apple iPhone 12 Mini review: Tiny yet mighty

The iPhone 12 Mini is delightfully small, yet provides a complete experience with exceptional hardware, features, and camera quality. It's the best small phone.

It's go big, or go home when it comes to Samsung's Galaxy Note series, and the new Note 20 Ultra is the biggest, most feature-packed version of the phone yet.
