RANKED: The Best Smartphones In The World

Luckily, we've skimmed through the dozens of models available today and picked the best smartphones. If you're ready to buy a new phone, here's the order in which you should consider them.

Note: We update this list approximately once a month. Our rankings are based on a variety of factors including design, software and hardware features, content selection, carrier availability, and price. We only consider phones that are available in the U.S. at the time of publication. We've listed discounted prices carriers give for signing a contract at the time of publication.
