Google Pixel 7 Pro

Streamlined styling, plentiful performance and dependable battery life make the Pixel 7 Pro another worthy Google flagship, even if it is something of a minor upgrade over last year’s effort. It still impresses on the photography front with pin-sharp zoom and even snapper low-light shooting.

Features:

  • Stellar screen that’s much brighter than before
  • Versatile camera combo takes superb pics
  • No major battery life improvements
  • Android 13 is undeniably slick

Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max

Moves things on with Dynamic Island and an impressive camera revamp, further differentiating this from the standard iPhone. If you’ve been mulling going Pro, this is the year to do so, given the comparatively nothingy update the iPhone 14’s received.

Features:

  • Impressive camera system
  • Dynamic Island is actually good
  • Hefty price hike over last year’s model
  • First-rate performance

Motorola Edge 30 Ultra

Feels as complete a flagship as the firm has produced in years. The previous-gen model had most hardware boxes ticked, but this one-ups it with superior fast charging, a huge pixel count camera, and a more streamlined design that elevates it above Moto’s more wallet-friendly models.

Features:

  • Screen, style, performance and battery all deliver
  • Versatile cameras
  • Exceptionally fast charging
  • Missing one or two flagship features
