This is the chillest tech video I have ever seen. Her tone is so calm I feel like I am sitting on a park bench throwing bread crumbs for pigeons. Great tips by the way.
Practical, useful, no-nonsense guide to picking phones - love it! I wish more channels took this up.
Hands down to you guys. Im in the search of a new phone and Im new to the smartphone jargon. You made me reevaluate my decisions!
Thank for the video. You did it in a great informative way, without sounding as if you were talking down to us.
what? and does it matter?

You good bro...?
I got an xperia xz1. Very pleased the camera in lowlight could improve but still is very good
Among the loads and loads of videos that just list specs and hype the phones, this realistic take on stuff is really refreshing and helpful. Good job!
I have seen a lot of review and recommendation videos on smartphones, but this one really nailed it - very well put together and presented and I love that it is being kept all OS and vendor neutral! Angie really knows what she is talking about - very professional.
Simply Excellent and practical guide! Love it
Half of the people here are thirsty, guys it's okay to compliment a girl. We appreciate it but not to the point wherein you go too far like "you have a sexy voice" "sexy as always" " I love you!" Please stop acting like its your first time seeing a girl, this is not meant to offend anybody, i am not a feminist, i'm just giving out friendly advice😊 peace everybody✌️
2spooky • 4yiu ha! That needed to be said!
I am a man and I found the creepers noticable!
I dread to think what lies within her inbox...
2spooky • 4yiu I totally agree

No you don't take the rating back because you could have edited it out if you really wanted to take it back.

Sending this to every person who asks me for advice. This is an excellent guide.
I accidentally opened this video but loved your way of speaking and your way of making it simple, keep it up! I like u.
Thanks for the video...I got my self an XZ Premium and I'm so happy with it!
Love her voice 😍

Very informative.. I mean real information that actually matters.thank you
I am a gsmarena fan for past 6 years and am so happy to see a video like this !
I agree with almost everything. Very good video!
Funkentelechy me too
Thanks for this Angie! I actually got myself the Moto X4 for Christmas, & I've been enjoying it so far. I got it after watching a few reviews, including yours. Thanks again!
how its camera performance ... is it good mobile (moto x4)
Yash Raj it hasn't been too bad so far. One reason I got it was because it's another phone besides LG that does a wide angle 2nd camera. So far so good on my end.
ohhh thanks for your response.... whats you suggest me to buy or not
It's really up to you what you feel would be best for you. For me personally I'm leaning towards more battery life, as well as a good camera.
Nestor Mateo thanks
finally a reviewer that doesn't get so into the specs and other real tech wiz.detail in the phone that i don't understand. To the point, simple and informative and very helpful i subcribes now. Also love your voice it's very calming and chill.
Thank you for the advice! Love this vid.
For me ,,, you are the most awesome girl in the world. I love the way you describe everything for smartphone users. Keep it up and god bless you 😊
Now that's an honest video I have ever wanted.
Great effort!! GSMarena is the only page i visit to read specs n review.. keep it up!
Wow this was a really good and comprehensive guide. Hopefully this helps some people.
Great video

Still happy with S7 got features of S8, quiet handy, basically everything is perfect for "ME" . :)
Anshuman Singh I Just bought the Galaxy S7 luxury!!! 👑❤

Everything in this video make sense, love it!!
Well, that was a fantastic and useful video. Thanks. I really enjoy your reviews and this was a nice change of pace.
I prefer xz premium 😛
great review and that hat suits you !
Wow! Thanks for the great video GSMArena team. It's really good to see some actually helpful videos on UA-cam. I'll keep those things in mind when I get my next phone.
And Angie, you're great! Keep it up.👍
You raised some very good points. Thanks
I like how the Sony (XZs?) is in the front of the intro. Xz1 Compact user here.
Speaker at the bottom. It is the Xperia XA1 Plus.
Johnny Pigman Johnny Pigman I mean in the front of group of phones. Because of the fingerprint reader it can't be a xa1 plus iirc. Thank you though
Taylor Starcevic XA1 plus has a fingerprint scanner plus look at the camera flash, it's not XZs
I came here looking for a new phone but i ended up loving her instead 😂
Ikr. Damn. Such an adorable person. That charming voice
True
Thanks helped me a lot . Keep the good work
Very clear cut video. especially for the smartphone novice. Thanks!
32gb or more??? Haha, i'm surviving with 8 lol
Γιώργος Γραμμ wow 8GB of interal srorage.
Same here xd
My last phone had 4 and only 2.25 left from the UI haha
to all people who has 8gb please like this comment. haha
the struggle is real
This girl reminds me of that FBI lady from Mr Robot
Sawbonz Even kinda sounds like her haha.
oh yeah!
Omg 😁😁😁
but that FBI lady reminds me more of Peeta from hunger games... take a good look and you just cant unsee it..
You mean ash?
Thanks so much for this video! I'm making a decision regarding a new device very soon. I appreciate everything you shared, & will definitely apply it. God bless!
Nice video. very thorough!
You are the most beautiful tech enthusiast. Thanks for the informative video 👍🏼
She's a transgender, right?
I was kinda thinking the same

Thanks for the professional and insightful work! Nice and easy, to the point ... well done!
Best info. I have found on smartphones.. Great job, very helpful!!! thank you~
I got Huawei P10 Plus on Christmas and it's AMAZING! Go for it guys!
Lersey DaPenguiiin I have mate 10 lite it is great as well
That's nice :)
Any flagship nowadays are great. Even the one that is considered to be "worst flagship" would still be very good to people (just that they will demand for more and better). We have come to an age where we can no longer find a bad flagship phone. Except Apple.
My Honor 6x still good after 1 years of usage
Jack Lol maybe but not beautiful at all unfortunately 😕
SONY XPERIA ♡
excellent video and very clear and to the point presentation!
Good job. I was able to see I may be looking for my "perfect" phone for some time. What I thought I would enjoy, turns out to be not so much. Better k ow before making the leap. Appreciate your delivery style. Thank you.
That slightly sarcastic tone of voice she employs in this video gets me every time.
Great review.
That cap looks awesome on you 😜😜😜

Brilliant Video .. I'm a big tech guy, but I still found his informative and useful... never thought of some of the things you touched on... Thanks x
Really helpful video, thanks 🙏

Excellent video ... Beautifully explained
Awesome video! Super clean, super on point and just great - congrats!
Refuse any form of glass housing on a mobile device!
HERE IS WHAT MATTERS:
Notification LED, illuminated hardware buttons, a camera lens that is made from glass and does not stick out from the rest of the housing, can lay flat on the table without wiggling, oleophobic screen glass, well readable screen outside, separate headphone jack, better 1 good camera than 2 mediocre ones, optical image stabilisation instead of bokeh mode, at least 4 Gb of RAM better 6 Gb, a powerful and loud speaker sound best with dual speakers, a noise cancelling microphone, a battery of 4000 mah or more, solid USB port that seats the cable easily but firm, included fast charger. And an extensive online community if you want support beyond the usual 18 months the vendor provides is invaluable.
WHAT DOES NOT MATTER:
Curved angles, thin body, no bezels, brand name, the lowest weight, dual cams for the most of budget phones are useless, rounded screen edges, face unlock, how thick are the antenna lines, fancy packaging.
Peter Kroll thanks, I needed this
I an glad that there is a female mobile reviewer 😀😀 Go girl
sameh hassan there is Erica the technology nerd for your in depth reviews.and she can sing too
Thank a lot best review I heard in awhile
Great informative video!
Angie, you have done an awesome job in covering every aspect in mobile phone buying.
Agreed about wireless charging being very slow and a water proof phone is a must for sure.Keep up the awesome job!
Forewarning... Super long comment...
Thank you. Unfortunately. I had learn all of this the expensive way. I have 20-10 vision. So the pixel density/and whether it being 1080p/4k does matter to me. I never took it into account when it came to phones though. I assumed sometimes you just can't can't escape the sun's glare. I also just realized that I should have focused more on finding a screen protector that protects against sun glares. I ended up going on without one. I just dropped my phone today and am now looking at a crack on the bottom right hand side of it. I can see it on screen a little too. *Sigh*. So much for that corning gorilla glass. (more like cornhole magilla glass 🤢 *cringe*) I was using a Trianium power pack/phone case too. My phone popped right of it...so again thank you for this video.
I will definitely watch durability test videos before I make any purchases. I heard of the UA-cam channel "JerryRigEverything" is pretty good with demonstrations.
I have big hands, but i am not a fan of long phones. I love phablets, but the way iPhone and Samsung are doing it. Just no thanks. Hopefully Huawei and Xiaomi are different.
I also Hope not being able to move apps to SD cards isnt the case for later and the current spotlight Samsung phones... I'm still living with my s7 edge US version. My mistake was believing that adoptable storage would work with Android 6 at the time. I heard the device had the software hidden. I ended up doing the custom rom thing in order to bypass Samsungs restriction. All of that to later find out that adoptable storage makes your phone run slower because it's based off of the speed of the SD card... Makes sense. Your device is as face as its slowest component. And apparently the on board flash was faster than an SD card. (I think its speed 100 mb/s. To scared to check, it's currently in use and locked in with a custom rom). I am currently running Android 7 on this device and I still cannot move my apps over to the SD card. Probably because of the custom rom. I am not undoing it. For warning. Just because the version of Android running on your device is capable of of doing something like moving your apps over to the SD card, doesn't mean the brand or version of your phone's manufacturer software will permit it.
🤥I'm actually done with Samsung at this point.
😎The Huawei and Xiaomi phlablets have my attention now. I'll pay the extra buck for an import. Never been a fan apple.
🤥And Samsung has become a fad to me.
🤔Why are Samsung and Apple continously copying off each other... 😰Oh wait. Because Apple uses Samsung parts. 😲Oh no! look out! Samsung phones are getting longer, 🤔didn't Apple do that? I'm sure it was only because Apple jocked the phablet idea from Samsung..fucking ridiculous.
The iPhone vs Samsung thing is a complete bs.
Sorry. I noticed how Angie didn't want to trigger the IOS vs Android war.
Thank you Angie and GSM. Sorry if I misspelled your name.
EnclaveSoldier 😛never!
Law Butler 20/10 is your distance... That does not play a major role in your near vision ... Your focusing system, or myopic individuals would notice more then those who just can see 20/20, 20/15, or 20/10.. as your not holding your phone out twenty feet.
Law Butler you know you started a reply war right?😂
David B Thank you. The 20/10 vision I mentioned was an example of me having abover average eye sight regardless of what it means, it was used as an example. Myopia is an example of someone who is nearsighted, I am not (for things that fall in a 20 ft range). To further add hyperopia is an example of someone who farsighted, that I am also not, (for things that fall in a 20ft range.) I can focus my eyes on both far objects and near objects, as long as they fall within a 20 ft range. 🤔I think I have little while until I start experiencing presbyopia (trouble focusing on far away objects caused by the worn out or loss of elasticity of the lens of the eye due to aging).
🤔I could have added that info in comment but I didn't want to make longer than it already was.
When the average person hears that you have 20/20 or 20/10 eyesight they would assume you have good or above average eyesight. Only eye doctors (oh, and I guess you too) care about all the other stuff.
😎And yes. I watch youtube videos on my phone from 20 feet away from myself. 😐Exactly 20 feet. Any further and I'd start experiencing hyperopia.🤗
Law Butler nope, just use to be an optician who worked with 8 different optometrist and ophthalmologist
I choose you ❤️
Thanks helped a lot..
Great review and definitely loved the breakdown.Look forward to seeing more.Very Nicely done.Hope you have a very nice Holiday.Thanks Deb.✌️👍
OnePlus 5T is the best player but in camera iPhone X or Samsung Note 8 or mi mix 2 or Sony. And Iris scanner was first introduced by Microsoft's lumia 950 and it can work at any lighting conditions and with or without specs
Anirudha Kolay You forgot the Pixel phones
Funkentelechy ya u are right pixel is also lot better
You on right on most point except Mi Mix 2....they only have mediocre camera.
Anirudha Kolay Mix 2 camera lol Really better than the 5t? No it’s definitely inferior.
Sony Sucks for cameras. Mi mix 2 even more.
Pixel 2 has the best camera
Followed by Iphone 8 (or X)
Then Note 8 / S8
Then V30
Then Nokia 8 / Huawei 10
Thats IT when it comes to cameras, no matter what the paid press want you to believe. Check MKBHD's detailed camera comparison and see for yourselves.

thanks for doing this😊👍👍
Watching this on my one plus 5t
mohsen maghrebi well done you.
T Toughtask with the student program they have it's a pretty sweet deal. But nevertheless it's the best sort of cheap Android flagship out there. I had LG g2 mini before but LG devices are not good. Anyways thanks for your reply.
If you live in the US where did you get it from?
No dude I am in europe.
Kirin 950 and 955 are flagship's processors too. Why not included in the list? Of course we have te latest 960 and 970 but don't forget the 950. However great video guys, very useful. Keep it up😎😎😎
The #1 Killer Yeah, it's been more than a year and my Honor 8 is still flyin'
Bonin Ygoña It's one of the best ever for me in all categories: price, specs, design... The best😎
Bonin Ygoña I am using the Honor 8 too😉😉😉
Honor 8 user here too. 😁
Does anyone use a skin for his honor 8 guys??
This was really helpful.
keep up the good work.
Great video thanks for your nice effort, i've been a loving fan of AA since long and they really help me many ways out there.
Link for that note 8 case
prince kumar it is a Samsung case. Just to to their website to find it. It is quite expensive for a case that doesn't have great protection though, just a heads up.
I will buy sony xperia z5. Because i cant find a smartphone that fits me
Youssef Joo and only the z5 can fits you ?
Incognito you dont understand what i mean ?
I understand
Youssef Joo i got now xz premium before it i got 4 years my z2 now my bro is use it :D
mario098mario i love everything about the xz premium, but the body is awful... Its 5.5 inch and i dont mind that but the problem is the phone body is too big plus the huge bezels.. I challenge u if u can put it in your pocket and if its comfortable on your hand.. I like the xz1 but the perfomance is not like xz premium :/
I love this video. Very informative
Thank you, subscribed :)
Iphone x would have been perfect if they put at least 1 slim bezel on top instead of the notch
Stephen Fennelly to hung up on small things. Worry about big things.
Big things like the camera bump on the back?
Looking cute as always❤️❤️❤️
Mustajab Zuberi ugly hoodie, choker, fcked hair and too big cap. no. Not cute in any way
IMMORTALDESTROYER ugh
IMMORTALDESTROYER her voice too lol. Cute? Nah bruv
IMMORTALDESTROYER lol ik, just said ugh cause.. its ugh..
IMMORTALDESTROYER UGH
Thank you for your videos you help me pick two phones I can hold everyday till they come out with a wrap around screen phone then I'll buy a new one thank you very much your awesome keep it up.😊👍
yes great video please keep them coming !!!!!
Go get a lg v30+.
Zeyi Wang lg v30 has good display.
Hey Angie, what are your Instagram and twitter handles? Thx
A little creepy
Angie, you're great at tech videos, it feels like something personal, unique, not just the average spec review we see in general. One thing that might help is to be more energetic and smile more often in front of the camera, you seem stressed and uncomfortable, but for a new person to youtube, it's good. I'm looking forward to seeing more videos by you at this channel in 2018.
One of the very impressive videos from GSMArena . Well done keep the good work going . 👌👍 . It really helped
A new presenter? Cool with me 👍
she been here since galaxy A5 video i think
She aint new here. only you.
Any Huawei phone.
CarbolicSoap nope, not me
Imo, I don't like the skin they have on the UI.
+Paco M. Oronce same here
Paco M. Oronce Their skin might not look nice, but it's one of the smoothest and fastest of any Android phone.
Moreover, it also doesn't slow down the phone or reduce the battery life too much over time; that's not something you can say about most Android phones.
As far as the look is concerned, you can always download Nova Launcher and feel right at home (well! almost). The stock apps and the notification menu will be the only things you'll have to get used to.
Honor 7x
great video. thanx, it really helps to narrow down your choices and find the One smartphone for your needs. ps i did subscribe, will keep up with your upcoming vids. and happy 2018 .ds
hey.... so many phones released in this 6 months. can you make another one like this. love your work.. thank
😍😘
HTC U11+ is the most balanced phone of the year.
Melbourne Dauz that battery life, tho :-(
calangel ? It has 3930 mah.
Even on my U11 that has 3000mah, I get overall 5-6 hours of screen on time.
So what are you talking about?
Melbourne Dauz gsmarena rated it quite poorly considering its battery size. It's quite the u-turn (pun intended) from the U11, where a smaller battery gave great endurance. Also, different sites have started the screen is not very bright...
calangel you should check more sites if you want, but my overall experience is that the battery is great, and the screen is also great. I can see my screen perfectly on direct sun light. Using auto brightness all the time since past Summer.
I should give you an advise. I do not recommend trusting on UA-camrs because after all it's a business, where the money is what it matters.
Thanks For This Review. Very Informative.
This is very helpful. Nicely done, GSMArena.👍🏻
Just give me that XA1 Plus! My phone got stolen 😭
will glass an iPad?
will glass an iPad? Or a laptop??
