It would be really cool if in a couple of years all the top tech UA-camrs collaborate and give out these smartphone awards. I think the awards would have more of an impact on the industry and make the awards less subjective
this would be such a cool idea
Nicely said.
I think they did that a few years ago. I think mkbhd was involved and maybe even Mr whose the boss

😂very accurate one
When the phone company offers you an upgrade every year .... or the cell phone maker itself each year for trade in its kinda easy to just so ok I'll take the upgrade 🤷🏾😂😂😂
Yes. 90 percent of people dosen't game on phones or photograph. Just gives us a decent screen and good battery life thats all we need. And cut prices to a half.

What a comprehensive review. It's not an easy task to review all these phones tbh. U did a great job 👌
This year has actually been great as finally the wave of innovations from some "not so mainstream brands" have started again, after being absolutely abandoned for pretty much a long time, and this makes it exciting to see the upcoming future smartphones.

the fact that s23 ultra came out a year ago and still became the best flagship of 2023 is mind boggling, that really makes you wonder what s24 will have to offer

@@Alirezarz62cars and phones are judged by the year they are released.
@@Alirezarz62It's not like Apple just finished designing iPhone 15 by September😂.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 was surely the most deserving of the award this year. Yet it was released at the start of 2023, but still got past the whole year with ease. In just 2 months, Samsung will release the S24 series, hope that it'll be just as good and better than the S23 series.
Should've gotten the compact price, the 5v is too big to be defined as a compact phone
This is why it should have stood alone. Samsung had the confidence to release their flagship first knowing they will dominate. And they did.
@@cheetah219 yes exactly
@@steveguy3The 5V is literally the same size as the S23. What are you on?
the s24 is worse, many people are saying they will not downgrade their zoom from 10x optical to 5x. sure the resolution is bumping up but it wont be able to physically zoom in as much, which is a huge deal breaker for anyone who bought the s23 due to its mega zoom lens stacks. samsung dropped the ball on the 24 for sure.
Really great review thank you!!
Good choices for the co best phones of the year.

Your awards are incredible and honest, thanks... I just gave the best camera to the SONY Xperia 1V because it's the only real PRO camera there...
Samsung launched the phone at the beginning of the year and set the bar for other brands. In just about 2 months S23U will be a year old and some brands still haven't caught up, While in a month Samsung will raise the bar again for the next year. Crazyyyy....
THIS! I had the iPhone 13 Pro for a little while and as a content creator, switched back to Samsung after about 6 months. I am on the Z Fold5 and absolutely love it!

I absolutely love how the 15PM and S23U have just been both crowned as the best overall flagships.
Obviously a copout to cater to both ios and android users. 15Pm has massive design flaws and has severe heating issues. The device runs at 80% of base performance to prevent heating.

Congrats Samsung and Apple! And especially Motorola. So glad it's making a comeback!!
Also man, those trophies look dope!!!!
This video you watch was nothing but a sellout so that he wouldn't alienate any of his viewers, you either have one best phone or none at all you don't go and pick both flagship phones that most of the world owns so you can keep your channel running smooth.

Wow, didn't expect the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra on this list. I've been loving mine. I paid around $650 (converted) and it's been the best for that price
We brought 2 of these (one for my mum and me) and yes I can say it is very snappy ⚡
Where are you from?
Honestly for me the base s23 which is my current daily is the perfect phone, it has a incredible camera, even my friend that owns a iphone 15 was impressed by the quantity. It's fast, it has 120hz screen, highly custumizable, 4 year os support, it's water resistant, it's incredibly durable, and it's just a very well balanced and performing phone for the price.
And the fact that Samsung only charges like what 90€ for the biggest storage one where apple will overprize you A LOT as always?
It´s insane 😅
Wrong, the difference between 256gb and 1 tb on Samsung is about €430. The difference between 256gb and 1 tb for iPhone is about ………… €430. (Plus there’s an option for 128gb)
Totally agree with you. I sold my s23 ultra and got the regular s23 and tbh I don't feel like I'm missing anything. The size, performance and cameras are amazing and I have no regrets.
I've tried super slow-mo for a food content and holy fck its amazing! also, now im in love with stylus, even though I've never had Note series before. Happy with my purchase
incredible camera, lol
So stoked to see Sony take two wins! I was REALLY hoping the Xperia 1 V was going to get an award too. It's such an amazing phone that sadly get's overlooked. It's a legit flagship that is right up there with Samsung's Ultra line. Here's hoping next year Sony will get their act together and give us more software update support (4 years minimum) and shop the darn phones around to carriers!
Thank you for your videos. Just watched this video and explore almost all your reviews today, which is one of the best review video channel so far. Apart from good videos, your voice is actually very relaxing 😅
P.s : I almost cried when you announce 2 best smartphones of the year, and i don't know why 😅😅😅
18:32 bro had to give both of them awards. 😂 or no free phone next year
Yep always showing such huge baised toward IPhone 😂 it's fr lame at this point like go ahead give To IPhone alone if u think it deserves it but nope
Watching this on my s23 ultra makes me happy ! I can do almost everything I want on this phone (customization, gaming with emulators, great photos and videos, taking notes at work with S-pen, etc.)
And I think people don't give enough credit to ONEUI. The simple fact you can listen to 3 different sounds from 3 different apps and having the ability to tune volume levels individually is sooo good! Best android OS for my likes.
We are Smartphone of the Year! 🥳 I am so proud to own one.
I'm proud of my s23u ❤
i have the iPhone 15 Pro max but i enjoy using my secondary phone S22 more and i blame apple for this
😁 S23 Ultra owner here
How u hearing 3 different sounds from 3 apps ? I am also using S23 ultra
Excellent choices, just curios about these topics:
1) Fairphone 5 - Maybe a new category for next year: "Best sustainable and repairable phone of the year"
2) For best phone of the year maybe we can have a winner for each tear? Low - Medium and Flagship?
3) At the end of the presentation to talk about some phone statistics, similar like the ones we have for cars? For example:
What was the best seller phone of 2023?
Whats was the best seller iPhone and most popular iPhone color of 2023?
What was the best seller Samsung phone for 2023?
What was the most stolen phone of 2023?
4) Lastly, we should talk about the impact on the planet that all these phones have,
I mean do we really need a new iPhone every year? Maybe Apple should produce an iPhone every other year, that will be better for the planet and the consumer.
Thank you.
*1)... "Best sustainable [...} phone of the year"*
Can't really be sure of sustainability many years in advance. We can just guess. So, not a good category.
*1) ... "Best [...] repairable phone of the year"*
A very-very niche topic (i.e. vast majority of the consumers don't really care for it) so better covered in a separate video.
*2) For best phone of the year maybe we can have a winner for each tear? Low - Medium and Flagship?*
He already did that in this video.
Low: 10:05
Medium: 11:16
Flagship: 15:39
*3&4)* are best handled in separate videos.
Problem with the Fairphone 5 is the availability: It's not. At least not outside the EU. I'd buy one in a heartbeat if it were.

Wonderful Video! I'm looking for a phone with an awesome camera. Also, does Opera come with a VPN?
Personally, I think the Pixels should have gotten the most improved award. They have eliminated almost all major flaws from the previous generations, not to mention the new AI, and 7 yrs support
I have the 8, love the size and improvements this year 👍🏽
Have you used Motorola a year back and currently.... Well if you had...you would have agreed with his point
Doubt that pixel 7 and 8 both still plagued by poor network and performance

@@sayeebanwar3494The Network improvement year over year for the Tensor 5G modems deserves their own award. This year the coverage improvement is mind blowing. The efficiency for 5G is still not what it should be, but I am still impressed!
The S23 Ultra in my hand actually made my life a lot better and easier, feels like a real life companion. ESPECIALLY after the latest update of One UI6.0. This by its own made the great even greater! And for the iPhone 15 Pro Max, it is what I would buy if I wasn't into Samsung from the first place.
Went from s22u to iphone 15promax yeah its an absolute beast but.. you are not missing anything with s23 ultra. I just wanted to try iphone and well its not better or worse just different. Learning curve is not worth it tho I would say! I will probably be back to samsung soon as I'm definetely not playing the going all in to apple walled garden anytime soon
@kobalov1 I would agree. Which is better is such a redundant question by now. We are not in 2013 anymore. Both are fantastic and are so good that your personal preferences are the actual and only immediate deciding factor.
@@kobalov1I would not buying an iPhone anymore even I know their cons and that's would be my stupidity wasting my money since I'm not satisfying it if I want to try it. Android OS will always be in my life since my first smartphone was from Samsung Galaxy Core 2, to Galaxy J5, and to my current using Galaxy A71 4G. I wanted to get the S23U but way expensive. In my preference tho I might get the foldable phone cuz I'm bored using a Slate form factor for over years now. I just wanted to try the flip factor.
It's not that modern smartphones are bad or anything, they are just boring and don't really have very much difference between models.

he gave the 15 pro max the awrd because if he didn’t fans will start a war 😂u can clearly how he introduces the s23 ultra vs 15 pro max 😂
@fizz6703 exactly, he did not explain a lot with iphone too at the end😂
S24 design is also same😅
there is also no difference between iphone 14 and 15's design as well
S23 Ultra should not have to share top -spot with the 15 pro max. It doesn't suffer the same from overheating, it's been proven to be more durable, its battery lasts longer and charges quicker, the camera is believed by many to be just as good if not better and you get more customisation options. And that's without mentioning the s-pen which power users like me love. 15 pro max is a great phone but it deserves a second place silver medal in my opinion.
I agree.
Well he said in a previous video iPhone has better camera due to a superior video also iPhone is faster than sanding due to its chip
Also Apple still didnt fix lens flare issues after all those years ... I hate that so much ...
Arun does not want to get on Apple's bad side. That'd be the last thing he wants.
agree i think he just didnt want to pick sides which kind of sucks when there's a clear winner
The year does NOT end without these awards.
love the video, about opera tho, all the features highlighted have been in edge for quite some time now, almost anything that you can find in any given browser, is also available in edge, and it's probably better too.
They still lack a lot of marketing and the old image that edge had is still present and heavily influencing public opinion.
It's insane how consistent and enthusiastic you are about tech and making videos. The attention to detail is emaculate , the editing is spot on, and the scripting and fluidity of your videos just seem out of this world
Yes, there is "folding" category, but I would really love to see "flipping" as well! Cheers🤙🤙
I have one more suggestion, the phone that stands the test of time. The phone that is still worth buying after the # of years after its release, mid range and flagship.
Nice to see the love for Sony. I have had Sony since the Ericson merge and always enjoyed them. Currently use a Xperia 1 3. Alot of people over look Sony as they did fall behind with design at one point especially through their z range phones.
They don't release their phones everywhere and if they do it's already late for many, i personally find xperia 5 mark V to be my next phone but there's no news of it getting released here
No support after 2 years is a deal breaker. I aint replacing my phone in 2 years in this economy, 4 minimum or fuck that no matter how good your phone is.
It's crazy because I was always made fun of for using a Sony phone and I recently after 9 years switched to a Google pixel Pro after using the Xperia line for years, every time I walked into a store and like do you guys have a screensaver or a protective case or anything like that and they were asked. What kind of phone do you have? And I say Xperia and they be like what is that? Be like a Sony phone and maybe like I didn't know Sony made phones. You know how many years I heard that 😂

Bro kept his macbook on the top of the cameras of all those phones. Nice!!!
I have owned the S23 Ultra since release and I have a hard time seeing how S24 Ultra will make me want to change. The camera is amazing, the speed is great (not a gamer), the battery is good (I charge once per day to 85%), and it's more than bright enough even in sunlight.
same, i've had the protect battery (85% battery) setting on for a very long time now. I sometimes go by 2 days if I use my phone less
The main things I see for the s24u is that they will get rid of the curved screen and most importantly get rid of the thicker chin bezel which I definitely appreciate. I'll probably keep my s23u for like 3 or 4 years though.
I read some rumor they make s24u concept more taller (same wide) so it will be 21:9 since 23u still 19:9 or 20:9 (as i read). Still curve, 8 gen 3 (all region), spen (of course)
Overall design just like 23u but little bit taller and bazel more thinner.
Remember, its just rumour
I have the s21 ultra and it's still hard to consider switching. I love this phone, etc etc
That said, I would consider switching to Apple if they priced themselves a few hundred dollars cheaper for a more seamless ecosystem. But for what they offer compared to price, it's completely not worth it.

Thank you for acknowledging Vivo. Been using Vivo for years now, I can say that they are a very strong contender in photography department. Lots of people, mostly iPhone users, impressed and compliment the photo taken with Vivo compared to theirs. Theres seems to be alot of new tech also introduce in China market (built in AI, graphite battery,...) Looking forward to upgrade to Vivo X100 Pro ( 🤞 for Pro+/ Fold version next year)
Been using vivo phone since x70 pro. Now im using vivo x90. The camera is very good even im using non pro x90. 🤤
Got the x90 Pro and also the Samsung 21 and 23 Ultra. I would always prefer the x90 Pro for its camera. I would love to get the Samsung with the Vivo camera and its software in it :)
It's because to me smartphones takes good enough pictures now all of them, what change is going back to the skill of the person taking the picture. When I show my pictures ppl like them and say yeah but you got a 2k phone... Yeah a fold is pricey but a 3 yo one is very far from the best camera phone of 2023, just need to have some small knowledge of picture taking

@@yellow.daisies bruv its bots dont give em attention thas how they get to know that this video specifically gives them clicks
@@fun_g fax you're right
How have I only discovered this channel today? Must have been living under a rock... 🤷🏼♂️ Doing my best to catch up with a multitude of videos...
This has made me realize just how little variance in phones there is nowadays
I liked the video nice job but why change the videos title if the awards are for 2023 smartphones?
14:52 me watching this on an iPhone SE: 😐
I love it, it’s a nice small little phone that works
It always comes down to Samsung or IPhone for best phones. They are the best for a reason. Great choices.

well if it made sense for the chinese to launch in eu the best phone would have been something else
@@centuryt3043not really, the huawei and mi are good, but not better than samsung s23 ultra, it's more all around better phone than mi and huawei
Yeah that was why huawei was selling more than sammy & close to apple before ban lol.. spitty boy go home
Opera is a dope ass browser he's not lying idk on if there's a differences in opera gx and the regular on but gx is dope
Thanks for the video!
What u guys recommend for a max 400€? what is really good in camera, night and day equally (primarily for photos) and for gaming (like pubg mobile, call of duty etc.)
I'm just happy that Sony has returned... Being a Sony Xperia XA1 user, I did feel the shortcomings in the camera and the conservatism in the design that they used for all phones through the years , but because the phone had such a good software support, it did not feel like a budget mi or Vivo phone, I currently use the pixel 7 pro and still it comes nowhere near the satisfaction I had when I used the sony phone, maybe because the pixel fades in comparison to the battery life that Sony once provided and many other reasons
Miss the Xperia play. Hope they do something l
With PlayStation
I'm just happy he mentioned Sony
I've had Sony phones for almost 16 years now. I bought the xperia 10 V last week, when my XA2 started having issues in its screen. I've had had that phone for 6 years now and I can't complain. My old XA1 still works, too. The xperia 10 was a very good deal (360€) and although I was convinced I was buying the best phone for my needs, I'm happy Sony got an award. People do not know what they are missing.
I bought the Pixel 7 at the start of the year, but I've ended the year with the Samsung s23, after 7 months I couldn't bare it anymore, it was just so painful to use the UI, and the fingerprint unlock didn't work 50% of the time.
Sony are struggling, the latest phone actually didn’t bring them any money! I don’t get it when sony xperia started was the first phone on the market water proof and best screen, now in 2023 they are making a shity looking phones. No one want to go back to 2010 style . Are they dumb ?
Mrwhosetheboss is the only phone reviewer where I can watch the full video, knowing I don't need a new phone. Keep up the good work 👍
Yea true
bro is freaking amazing, big respect hats off.
Because of Arun, im drawing and creating a concept phone myself that're different from others, thanks arun for my inspiration
Absolutely agreed with the Sony entries. Sony phones are quite niche and underrated in the market's perspective. I have had an iPhone previously, which needed an upgrade. Took my chance with the Xperia 1 V, which had one of the best wireless headphones bundled in the preorder, so technically the phone cost me much less than 1400 EUR. Very happy with the outcome and I think I may buy Sony once again in the future!
And the camera after last update is great. I was on trip in Istanbul, and need to say that camera of Sony 1 V outperformed Iphone 14 max pro in every segment, even low light photos.

The most unique Smartphone awards !!! Watching your videos since 2017 .. Best of luck keep going on Arun ❤ Happy new year 2024
I've got a Xiaomi 13T Pro arriving this afternoon, my first phone upgrade since 2019. Currently have a Xiaomi Mi 9 and aside from not holding a great battery charge now it's been perfect the whole time, with a not a scratch on it. The 13T Pro was £649 which is as much as I want to spend on a phone, altough I do get a bit of phone envy listening to the feature specs of the Samsung S23 Ultra.
You should have to go with 14 pro
@@UNKNOWN-zp4kj I'm in the UK and they won't release here for months. Plus the T line releases even later, and will cost more than £649.
Can you explain, why?
@@UNKNOWN-zp4kj
I got the 13T pro down a week ago. same here i m coming from a MI 9T Pro, the 1st phone to kick off the T pro range. I loved the 9T pro and used it for 4 years, 13T pro ! bro you are not gonna regret it! the display is breathtaking, cameras are awesome and the battery life is really good! Good choice
I personally don't love the 13T Pro design, but this is a nice upgrade.
S23 Ultra all the way!! Almost a year owning it, never bored! Still works like i just took it out of the box yesterday ❤
Hey bro are there any weaknesses in the camera you noticed? Like in videos or photos?
@user-sd7qr2ih8q it takes a few seconds to get the image process as well, when you are taking a photo in night mode, you need to wait a few moments before the phones takes the shot. Other than that, this phone is a beast, no complaints.
@@juanaragon1570 hmm almost ever Phone does that for night mode
@juanaragon1570 they updated it you can postpone the shutter lag (due to processing) for quick and easier snaps instantly. Though yes in night mode that does become the issue, but the images are pretty much always amazing
The s23 ultra isn't a great upgrade from the s22 ultra though, slightly better battery life & camera doesn't make it worth it
You should do w video on 1tb smartphones for video creators that Edit multiple video sources
The fact that Apple was the only company to NOT collect their award last year reinforces the fact that I made the right decision to move away from iPhones to the Pixel.
My phone came 2nd in the compact section, I do think the battery is pretty good for daily use and the 3 cameras coming out of the body of the s23 look pretty nice.
Long live the King - S23 Ultra. Standing tall even after being around a year old. True Champion 👏
Pretty cool selection for the winners this year! wanted to check though if you have a video that reviews the camera of smartphones after a year or two after a lot of updates has rolled out. If you can send me the link, would really appreciate it(This is just me trying to find a justification to buy a flagship again from android after 3 years of hiatus haha)
8:10 dude the kitty ❤🐈
Man I love how you organise your video and put effort in everything
I haven't even touched a 15 pro max or s23 ultra
But the way you presented the phone of the year i literally had goosebumps ❤🎉😂
