1. Samsung Galaxy S8

Quite simply, the best phone on the market

Lovely designAmazing camera

Brilliant screen

Biometric issues

The Samsung Galaxy S8 is the best phone in the world for a few reasons, but none more so than the display: it makes every other handset on the market look positively antiquated.

The screen is one of the very, very best on the market still, coming with the elongated, 18.5:9 ratio that stretches impressively up and down the phone, with powerful colour reproduction and contrast ratios that make everything look clear and crisp - plus it’s got the QHD resolution that we expect from all the top phones.

The battery life, despite being smaller than in previous devices from Samsung, is actually better thanks to the improved internals and the software running things more efficiently in the backgound.

The camera is one of the very best on the market - the auto mode offers clean, crisp and clear shots every time and combined with screen quality makes you want to show off your best snaps. There’s an easy-to-use pro mode as well to get the best out of your snapping.

This is the phone to go for if you want the best the market has to offer - although the Samsung Galaxy S9 will be with us very soon - all packaged up in a now-cheaper device.

If you fancy even more screen then you'll want to check out the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus with its gigantic 6.2-inch offering. It offers the same bezel-less Infinity display design, and exactly the same internals too – it is even more expensive though
