If you’re looking for a new Android handset, read on to find out which might be the best Android on the market for you. You’ll find out about some of this year’s top models as well as some low budget and mid-market choices.
The best Android of 2025 is the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. Many reviewers believe this handset leads the pack, thanks to its cutting‑edge performance and premium features.
Under the hood, the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chip drives this very capable device. You get ultra-fast performance whether you're gaming or using multiple intensive apps at the same time.
Its 6.9‑inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display is vibrant and sharp, offering stunning visuals in Quad HD+ resolution. This makes it ideal for watching films on the go and for work tasks like video calls and document editing.
The camera system is a noteworthy featured. It countenances:
The camera captures incredible detail in every shot, even in low light. Plus, it supports UHD 8K video recording and multiple slow‑motion modes.
Memory-wise, you can choose 256GB, 512GB or a massive 1TB of storage. The phone comes with 12GB of RAM and a robust 5000mAh battery that lasts up to 31 hours of video playback.
Other high-end phones you might want to consider are:
If you want a mid-range phone with high-ticket features, the powerful OnePlus 13R is a great choice. It's great for streaming and gaming, thanks to the remarkable visuals of its 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display.
The 13R’s battery life also makes this handset stand out. You can get two days use from it and when it's running low, the rapid 80W charging tops it up fast. Be aware there's no wireless charging, if that's important to you.
You could also consider the Samsung Galaxy A53, another impressive mid-range handset. Like the 13R, the display on this good-looking phone is a highlight - a 6.5", FHD+ resolution, 120Hz AMOLED screen.
While the camera is not high-end, it's very competitive for this price range. Samsung's One UI software also works particularly well on this phone, making it a pleasure to use.
There’s a lot of impressive Android budget phones available from 2023 onwards and four that made an impression on us were:
The Android phone that offers best value for money is Google Pixel 8a.
Colours on the 6.1” OLED screen are punchy and the display operates at 120Hz, great for videos and gaming. For a phone at this price point, the phone feels smooth and fast, making it seem more like a mid-range phone than a budget handset.
Buy the phone new and you’ll get a full seven years of security and system updates from Google. The battery should also last you through the day without the need to recharge.
