black shark 2 review full 5

Black Shark 2 review

With the incredibly powerful Snapdragon 855 and a unique gamer-focused design, the Black Shark 2 has the power to demolish games and looks good while doing it. But its predecessor was tripped up by some buggy software that made it hard to recommend. Can the Black Shark 2 overcome those flaws?

Huawei P40 Pro Plus review-in-progress: Zooming ahead

moto e5 play review back lifestyle feat

Moto E5 Play review

The Moto E5 Play has a compact design, day-long battery life, and solid performance all for a little over $100 (or less, depending on the carrier it’s sold from). While there are some compromises, this may just be the best smartphone you can buy for this price bracket. We dive deeper in our Moto E5 Play review.
apple iphone xs max review feat

iPhone XS Max review

The iPhone XS Max has a much improved camera, the powerful A12 Bionic processor, and Face ID, but should you get Apple's massive 6.5-inch iPhone? Or should you pick the iPhone XS, which is quite a bit smaller? For our review, we put the Max through its paces to find out.
iPhone SE 2020 Product Red

iPhone SE review: Everything you need at lightning speed

Apple's iPhone SE (2020) isn't the best iPhone, but it's enough for most people. Our in-depth review examines performance, camera quality, design, and more.

Apple iPhone 8 review: A gate into Apple’s walled garden

Apple recently cut the price of the iPhone 8 to $450, following the announcement of its new iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro Max. Is this a legitimate budget option that can stand up to Android phones? Or are you better off upgrading to the $700 iPhone 11?

Razer Phone review

Razer Phone review

In our Razer Phone review, we find out if Razer has succeeded in making the ultimate mobile gaming device, or if it’s a niche phone for a niche audience, outgunned by the industry’s biggest names.

Motorola MOTO W233 Renew Review

Antiquated features and functionality make this eco-phone's green aura its only real selling point.

LG Incite Review

The LG Incite is a decent smartphone, though certain hang-ups, keep it from taking any crowns.
samsung-galaxy-nexus-review-front-screen

Samsung Galaxy Nexus Review

We review the Galaxy Nexus, the first phone to run Ice Cream Sandwich and the new best reason to stick with Verizon for another two years.

Samsung Intrepid SPH-I350 Review

Samsung’s anachronistic SPH-I350 Intrepid uses Windows Mobile 6.5, but still requires a stylus for operation.

Nokia 7510 Supernova Review

A subpar camera and awkward menus hinder this stylish folder, making it for fashionistas only.

Palm Centro Review

Palm is at it again, this time fighting for your attention (and money) with the new Centro Smartphone.
moto g6 review hands on 16

Moto G6 review

The Moto G6 is Motorola’s latest low-cost phone that looks and feels like it should cost a lot more than it does. A glass body, dual-lens camera, and a big screen make it tempting, but should you buy one? We’ve been trying it out to see if it’s more than just a pretty face.

Samsung Memoir Review

An above-average camera doesn't quite make up for the Memoir's ho-hum smartphone performance.

LG Lucid 2 Review

We review the LG Lucid 2, an affordable alternative to the latest superphones that still packs some impressive specs and will do the job – if you don't mind a dated look.

LG Muziq Review

The Sprint Muziq phone has a killer design and is very simple to use. Music lovers will be drawn to its features.

Nokia N96 Review

The N96 scores points for raw hardware specs, but falls down on everyday usability and feel.

Motorola MOTO Q music 9m Review

The MOTO Q music 9m is touted as the perfect multimedia phone for music, video and social networking.

LG Lotus Review

This squat little fashion phone proves that wider really is better

Motorola RAZR2 V8 Review

The Motorola RAZR2 includes improvements over the previous version including 2GB of internal memory.

LG Versa Review

The Versa is worth opting for at a discounted price, although the full price puts it up against much more versatile contenders.
Samsung Galaxy A51 Main

Samsung Galaxy A51 review: All about the display

The Samsung Galaxy A51 has a lot going for it, including an awesome display and decent camera -- but can it compete with the iPhone SE and Pixel 3a?

Google Pixel 3 XL review: Hit the big time

Google’s Pixel 3 XL has two big flaws: The gigantic notch on the front, and mediocre battery life. That being said, this is the best Android experience you can find in a smartphone today. Android 9 Pie is fluid, there’s an exceptional camera, and the A.I. features on board are unrivaled.
Google Pixel 3

Google Pixel 3 review

Google’s Pixel 3 smartphone is the best Android phone you can buy. It doesn’t have the best looks or the most cutting edge features, but you’ll be hard pressed to find better software and unique A.I. functionalities.

Google Pixel 4 XL review: Six months later, it’s an affordable flagship

Google's Pixel 4 XL is a powerful and smart Android phone and it delivers an excellent screen, a killer camera, intuitive software, and helpful hands-free gestures, but it falters on battery life, struggling to go a full day.
samsung galaxy s10e

Samsung Galaxy S10e review

Samsung’s Galaxy S10e is meant to be the attractive and affordable phone compared to the rest of the S10 and S10 Plus lineup.

LG Wing review: This novelty can’t quite get off the ground

You won't find another smartphone like the LG Wing due to the amazing swivel screen, but it's just not that useful everyday. Here's our review.

Oppo Find X2 Pro review: The sweet spot

The Oppo Find X2 Pro may look sensible from the front, but the vegan leather back cover, 5G, and monster specs prove it has a wild side. Here's our review.
The Microsoft Surface Dup foldable smartphone placed on pebbles.

Microsoft Surface Duo review: The future of smartphones is a work in progress

With the Surface Duo, Microsoft wants to rethink what you do with the 7 or 8 ounces of metal and glass you carry everywhere, just as the first iPhone did.

OnePlus 8 Review: A fine phone that needs a killer feature

The OnePlus 8 gets several things right, from the great design to the fast charging, but it fails to come up with a must-have feature to justify the price.

Asus ZenFone 7 Pro Review: The best selfie camera you can get on a phone

Wondering why you'd want the ZenFone 7 Pro's motorized flip camera? It's simple, the rear camera becomes the front camera, for the best selfies you'll take.
Huawei Mate Xs

Huawei Mate Xs folding phone review: Flawed marvel

The Huawei Mate Xs is the closest we've got to a true foldable smartphone that becomes a tablet when you want. It's an engineering marvel, but it's also flawed.
sony xperia 1 ii review

Sony Xperia 1 II review: Stand out from the crowd

The Sony Xperia 1 II doesn't conform to the 2020 smartphone playbook, using a different design and niche features to appeal to those bored of the norm.

Nubia Red Magic 5G review: Hardcore gamer

It's hard not to be tempted by the $579 Nubia Red Magic 5G gaming phone, given the value it offers, so we've been gaming away to see if it's worth your time.
oneplus 7t review back

OnePlus 7T review: Simple, excellent, and no messing around

The OnePlus 7T doesn't want any drama. It's simple in the best way -- it does everything you want it to, without making life complicated. The screen imports the OnePlus 7 Pro's excellent 90Hz refresh rate, the camera is capable, and the battery charges in an incredibly short period of time. Here's our review.
OnePlus 8 Pro Pocket

OnePlus 8 Pro Review: Everything you want

The OnePlus 8 Pro has everything you want from a phone, from a stunning screen to wireless charging and water resistance. There's only one thing you won't want.
