The holidays are one of the best times to buy a new smartphone because deals are coming left and right. In fact, this weekend (until Sunday, December 20th), you can actually buy a new iPhone 6S for just $1.

But you don't want to buy just any smartphone that's on sale - you want the best one for your price range. We have assembled a list of the 11 phones you should be on the lookout for (along with a few alternates).

From giant powerhouses to beautiful budget options, these are the best smartphones of the season.
