RANKED: The Best Smartphones In The World

Smartphone makers sure are. There are a ton of new devices out this fall, just in time for the big holiday shopping season.

So which phones should you be looking at? Here's our ranking of the best smartphones available.

Note: We update this list approximately once a month. We did not have a ranking in August or September as there was a brief lull in new smartphone releases. Our rankings are based on a variety of factors including design, software and hardware features, content selection, and price. We only consider phones that are on sale in the US at the time of publication. You can see July's smartphone rankings here.
