- The Spurty Awards for the best smartphones of 2024 are back, rewarding the top phones for camera tech, gaming abilities, value for money etc so far. Here's my favourite UK mobiles including the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, Xiaomi 14 Ultra, Honor Magic 6 Pro and Huawei Pura 70 Ultra. Plus more budget friendly smartphones, if you're not absolutely minted.
I've reviewed all of these phones here on Tech Spurt, so check out those videos for a more in-depth experience.
We kick off with the best phones for those on a budget, including the greatest mid-range devices in 2024. The likes of Google's Pixel 8a, the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G, Nothing Phone 2a, Poco F6 & F6 Pro and Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus have all impressed so far this year, offering stunning value for money.
A tough one to judge, as is the award for best camera smartphone. Xiaomi, Honor, OnePlus, Huawei and Samsung have all spaffed out some excellent mobile shooters in 2024, for top quality pics, family snaps etc.
We also reveal the best gaming phone, foldable and 'compact' devices of the year so far. According to some bald Northern git. Let us know your own favourites down below!

Ah yes, the best use of that ASUS ROG Phone 8 rear display 😂
Nay, the ONLY use 😁
Boris Johnson's johnson (?)
@@bedoinuk Peepee😆
Absolutely!
my only dream is to one day see a video on nothing hq and see a framed picture of their super official certificate from you in the background as an easter egg moment.
Where do you get the wallpapers that you uses?
brilliant video mate, I haven't laughed that much during a tech video in a long time.
Im seeing 'no views' here. The video is 1 minute old, why does it not have 100k views wich it deserves already ! 😅❤
Haha, if only!
Excellent work mate. Cheers.
Just ordered a Xiaomi 14 12GB/512GB to replace my iPhone 15 Pro. It may seem a little odd to some however I’ve been waiting for a compact flagship that isn’t a compromised spec. The S24 would have been a good choice however I do not want another exynos.
iPhone 15 Pro has issues with overheating, the Ceramic Shield marks super easy and iOS is very buggy. Also, the fact you cannot even change the vibrancy of the display is very frustrating. Also the major lens flare issues ruin most shots 💀
Props off to Xiaomi, let’s hope I don’t have the lens fogging issue
test it for foggy thing, tell us what you got pls :D
10:56 😂😂😂😂😢😂😂
12GB???
@@thatchinaboi1 12GB of RAM 🌚
Doesn’t the S24 have a snapdragon chip?
Really love the review. Before seeing it today I had just ordered the Xiaomi 14 Ultra with Camera kit. Can't wait to start using it
Chris you are brilliant! I'm laughing like a drain! Loved the home-made certificates, superb. Well done mate, you must be exhausted making all these vids. Every phone I buy is because of you. Thanks man. BTW I love Macro Lens's on my phones, use them all the time, mostly for seeing tics on my kids, don't be too hard on them dude! All the best Chris - YOU ROCK!
The Porsche magic V2 is about as useful as a comb for uncle spurt
dude, you absolutely make my day. Sending love from Kenya, Africa😁😁
Bloody love youe content❤❤❤
I actually bought Xiaomi 14 Ultra because of you :), and thank you for that!
Good choice!
So you would recommend it? What's the camera ect like?
@@wesleyallin5487 oh yes, even me that do not know how to take good photo, likes quite stuning when you take it 😂
How is it so far?
@@smitjee To be honest, it is very compact, regarding design and size of phone compared to S24 ultra for example, it fits perfectly. Performance is insane (for gaming as well which I am not fan of), display is very bright and HyperOS offers a lot of features and it is very fluent and responsive (won't talk about camera that is insane). To add, I've used 11 Ultra as well.. and I can tell they speed up software updates by 5 times to be honest, nearly similar to Samsung phones.. which is very nice :). Hope it helps.
One of the best British thing I've watched so far, resembling much of that insanely funny Diana Morgan. I found that the bloody curses and elaborated trash talking are deeply insulting but rather refreshing and pleasing to my ears at the same time. What kind of sorcery is this? and do you somehow related to her ? hahaha
I love the thumbnail :D
A Fine round up good Uncle Spurt! Didn't you do a guide to chipsets a little while ago? It would be handy to know what the league table of current types is. 👍🥃🥃
Ta! I covered the new SD 8 Gen 3 and Dimensity 9300 when they launched last year but haven't done a chipset head-to-head, unless I did and I just forgot 😅
@@TechSpurt Cheers! A lot of it's gobbledygook, (stop giggling at the back!) but it does give you an idea as to whether that newly released phone is really just a warmed over version of last year's or not and how long it will be supported. 👍
Nr 1 😄🍻 long live u spurt
Just picked up a OnePlus 10t ❤❤ thanks for your reviews u were spot on !
Xiaomi 14 ultra not suitable for UK weather…. According to Xiaomi when I called them to discuss the camera lens fogging 😂
Oh jeez, really? It's not like we live in a rainforest here!
Xiaomi makes phone for asian region..hot weather compatibility is top notch...@@TechSpurt
Have they given any solution?
@@smitjee no solution as far as im aware, ive heard in certain places they allow replacement but that also doesnt fix it. I think its more of a design flaw so good luck, its getting flamed here 🔥
@@smitjee no they just said it was down to my weather not the phone but I could return it if I liked (I did). Shame as I loved the photo style
Got some decent music going Chris 👌🏽
This guy is hilarious 🤣. Subscribed.
where on hell does he find these jokes lmao
from chadgpt
What makes them a joke?.
thx for the video! entertaining and informative as always.
Ta for watching!
@@TechSpurt u r welcome uncle spurt!! Got the nothing phone 1 because of u, one of the best decisions i ever made!
Thanks uncle spurt for validating my complete splurge on self indulgence on purchasing the 14 ultra. TSW not the reason I bought it, but being a fan of both nice to have you validate my impulse purchase considering my last flagship was the galaxy s9!!!
How good is the nothing phone 2a?
"Boris Johnson's Johnson. It's inside something different everyday" 😂😂😂
Nothing and Motorola are carrying the budget segment on their backs 👑👑
Can't wait for the Nothing 3a if they follow the same formula as the 2a. Motorola making some weird chipset choices lately.
xiaomi and nothing
Motorola support and updating speed 👎
Xiaomi has been carrying ever since they popped into existence.
Where do you get your wallpapers from tech spurt?😊
Thanks for the video, valuable beer money 😂😂😂
Where do you get wallpapers?
They're bright and beautiful..
Glad that you didn't just say the plain boring S24 Ultra or iPhone 15 pro max. The Xiaomi 14 Ultra is indeed one of the best phones out there and only perhaps a bit weak in the battery life area. Great video nevertheless!
Any chance of a review of the Meizu 21 Pro?
Cheers!
Where do you get the wallpapers that you uses?
I wonder when Google are going to stop huffing about Huawei
Google never huffed nothing, it was the politics and lawsuits...guess only these guys can lift the ban?
Whenever the US of A lets them.
When USA colonial empire collapses
it's not Google's fault, it's cus of freedomland america
By end of this year Google will be fully operational thru 3rd party app micro g
Can u give a link so i can get the pura 70 ultra please i can’t find it. I’m in the UK.
The jokes on this vid 😂😂
And MKBHD catching strays lol
I love your videos mate, but the category 'best bang for a bug' is clearly missing. Would like to know your opinion on that.
Yeah was surprised to see that, or not see.
Still waiting to see your opinion on Sony 10 VI before I decide to go ahead and just buy damn Pixel 8a as you often mention it in your "Best of" videos... Cheers and tnx for always fun and relatable reviews! 😁
Why not go for an old flagship?
Are you going do a review of Xperia 1 vi
Opinions on OnePlus 12R???
Mr.Spurt when is the Xiaomi 14 Civi 2 review coming out!!
The best camera goes to Vivo X100 Ultra
NO, the main camera it is better on the Pura 70 ultra, telefoto it is a little better on X100 Ultra
I heard that the camera system on the Pura is laggy tho...@@bogdan576
Love you too Uncle Spurt
hey can you maybe review the xiaomi redmi buds 5 because im gonna get and it looks good with transparent and anc below 50 dollars
Nothing on the Sony Xperia 1 Mark 6?
When is the Xiaomi 14 Civi review coming?
Tecno camon 30 premier its the best on the mid range phones section. Take a look at that one.
Althought i have not subscribed to your channel but i am watching your videos since 2018
Eid mubarak everyone
Eid Mubarak Said
eid mubarak

What I wanna know is where you get all the anime background pictures from

Which one would you choose between Xiaomi 14 or Samsung s24
Got the honor magic v2 amazing phone..
Can you do best phones still to come in 2024?
I love how you just flat insult Christmas carolers. 😂
Yay ! We made it !
I am a bit obsessed with using Motioncam to shoot 4K DNG RAW videos on my Xiaomi 14 Ultra. The quality is amazing and unbelievable for a smartphone.
Where do you read manga? Amazing video, as always.
2:20 AYOOO💀
Why is it that Huawei 70 pura doesnt work in UK?
You make me wanna buy xiaomi 14
for fold vivo xfold3 pro is probably the correct option
Watching it in Nothing 2A
Few support for digital sim.
hey tech spurt I’m looking for a cheap and reliable phone.. can u help me find one?
No fair the Nubia z60 ultra doesn't get considered. 😢
Needs a revisit after the updates, it's awesome!
what about Realme GT 5 Pro?
Please share that nothing phone 2a wallpaper please
The red magic 9 pro is the best gaming phone ive ever owned while the s23 ultra is the best phone in general I've ever used. The honor magic v2 Porsche edition rsr is incredible in design and I hope the z fold 6 variations deliver
Always wanted the 14 ultra, but sadly, it's not available here so i had to go for the s24ultra.
Is anyone having mobile data speed issues in s24ultra?
S24 Ultra 💛
How do you buy from amazon India? Everything just says "cannot ship to UK".
Maybe you could ask for a tech spurt sponsored phone with a bald head texture back cover that smells of beer 😂
How many phones do u have
And Could i plz get a phone for mobile gaming ❤❤
Man he is never running out of new words😂
But you know. There's So Few high street stores in England who's stocking most of them. ( Vodafone..02. 3. E E. Carphone warehouse?) It's Google.. Samsung.. iPhones . Hmmm)
Yeah, it's a shame the range on the high street is still so limited
Wait!!! 2:21 are those "Well Done" really coming from what i think it is?? Is it not, am i wrong??
Wts ur opinion abt motorola edge 50 ultra and realme gt 6
Realme I haven't touched sadly, I don't hear from those guys any more for whatever reason. The Edge 50 Ultra has a few wee issues which need sorting, review is live now
We agree 100% with Xiaomi 14 u
Best midrange?
Oh. And the Vivo range
Vivo Fold 3 and Fold 3 pro deserves your attention with the foldables. I handled the honor but the interface feels like Huawei from 5 years ago.
Vivo V30 is really available here in India. Below 350 USD.
Vivo x100 Ultra for Camera for me.
The master of metaphorical punch lines
Redmi note 13 pro+ vs poco f6 which one is better? Is the camera on note 13 pro+ that much better then the poco f6? Or it is just slightly better? I don't really game that much, i want a phone that is more balanced between camera and gaming.
Why is Pixel 8a not included in the "Compact Phone" Section ?
Please help me I want to buy iqoo device i will go to Russia for 6 yrs but problem is in Russia there is no iqoo/ Vivo so what to do ?????
10:56 my favourite moment
You should do a list of the best smartphones of 2024 with no bloatware 🤔📱
Y didn't add poco f6 in gaming section 😢
0:21 Made me wheeze lol. Sometimes your jokes don't always land but this one was gold!
As a techie getting older and eyesight breaking, screen quality and value are my two number ones. Just got a Poco F6 pro and it's fantastic. 2k screen makes a huge difference and UK price was just over £300 with trade in junk phone. Can't get better for the price. Surprised 'display' isn't on the list.
Also bought an F6 which feels cheap by comparison and
my old F3 screen seems better.
Mate, where is Xperia 1 VI review?
Eerily quiet.
Best camera phone on the market right now is the Vivo x100 ultra 🔥
it is not, dude i have Pura 70 Ultra and X100 Ultra, The main camera it is better on the Pura 70, only Telephoto it is slightly better on x100 ultra
Watching on my mi 14 ultra 😊
