Top 9 Best Mobile Phone Brands in 2022 Ranked

Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G

Arguably the best phone on the market at the moment, the S21 Ultra 5G is a true tour de force with class-leading hardware and Samsung's typical “more-is-more” approach to features.

The S21 Ultra comes with a huge 6.8-inch AMOLED display with a 1440×3200 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate for super-smooth scrolling. The S21 Ultra's screen even has curved edges to make it feel even smaller in your hand. What's more, the S21 Ultra's display is HDR10+ enabled and can manage a very impressive 1500 nits of brightness.

The S21 Ultra comes with the latest and super-powerful Snapdragon 888 processor. You can also choose between 12GB and 16GB of RAM — though the 16GB option is, in our view, overkill.

The S21 Ultra comes with four rear cameras: a 10Mp periscope lens for up to 10x optical zoom, another 10Mp telephoto lens, a 12Mp ultrawide lens, and a crazy 108Mp main lens for remarkable levels of detail. You can also record up to 8K video at an admittedly sluggish 24fps. 4K videos, however, can be recorded at up to 60fos and you can record 240fps slow-mo videos at 1080p. Round the front, you get a 40Mp selfie camera that can record up to 4K resolution video at 60fps.

The S21 Ultra has a huge 5,000 mAh battery and can support up to 25W fast charging. Samsung claims that you'll get up to 22 hours of video playback time or 41 hours of talk time.

Prices start from a cool $1,199.
