1. Samsung Galaxy S8 — Best Overall
There’s very little challenging the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus right now. Samsung does it again with big beautiful Infinity Displays (which use a unique 19.5:9 aspect ratio with curvature on each side), great design, fast processing power and the most well-rounded feature set you’re going to find in a smartphone. That includes the use of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 and 4GB of RAM, as well as access to Verizon’s LTE-A network.

What About the iPhone?
The iPhone 8 or iPhone X are great phones and should certainly be on your list of considerations when searching for a new smartphone, but we should point out that Phandroid is an Android site, first and foremost, and as such it’s difficult to objectively rank the phone among the field of competition.
It can be tough to choose between the iPhone and something like the Galaxy S8, so here are some comparisons that should help make it easier:
2. Samsung Galaxy Note 8 – Best for Multitasking
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is widely regarded as the pinnacle of smartphone supremacy. It has almost everything you could want: a big beautiful display, unique multitasking with S-Pen, a fast chipset, tons of RAM, dual cameras, fingerprint scanner, an iris scanner, a heart rate monitor, microSD slot, wireless charging, waterproofing, and the list goes on and on. It’s pricey at a starting point of nearly $1,000, but if you have the coin then there’s no more complete package available on the market.
3. LG V30 – Best for Music
The LG V30 has a lot of things going for it. Good traits include dual rear cameras, a massive 6-inch P-OLED display in 2:1 aspect ratio, a Snapdragon 835 chipset, 4GB of RAM, a fingerprint sensor, and more. Things like wireless charging and 32-bit HiFi DAC audio set it over the top.

5. Moto Z2 Force – Best for Accessories
Motorola introduced one of the best concepts for modularity we’ve seen to date with the Moto Z series, and the Moto Z2 Force is the full embodiment of it. With Moto Mods, you can add new looks and functionality — such as a Hasselblad zoom camera, JBL stereo speakers, and even a projector — with a simple snap. The Moto Z Force also has plenty of power under the hood with its Snapdragon 835 chipset, and a 5.5-inch AMOLED Shattershield display is sturdy enough to survive drops without having to worry about cracks.

If you’re looking to save some money, T-Mobile’s Galaxy J7 is an excellent value. For under $300, you’re getting a nice big 5.5-inch 1080p display, an 8MP camera, and a power-sipping 1.6GHz octa-core chipset combined with a 3,300mAh battery to help it last all day.
7. Kyocera DuraForce Pro — Best for Durability
The Kyocera DuraForce Pro is your only option if you want something that can take a beating. Kyocera’s latest rugged smartphone comes in with a very impressive suite of features.

It also has dual-front speakers and a fingerprint sensor, 2 uncommon marks for phones in this class.
