Samsung Galaxy S8
Hands down, the best phone you can buy right now. It's powerful, takes fantastic photos, and is gorgeous. And there's a big one too, if you like that sort of thing.

OnePlus 5
Not quite the bargain we're used to getting this year, but a much-improved camera and streamlined design make up for it

£719
Apple iPhone 7 Plus
The best iPhone camera ever, best iPhone screen ever and excellent battery life - there's no better iOS choice

£379
Honor 9
Gorgeous looks, huge power and clever dual cameras make this a real bargain, and it even undercuts the OnePlus 5 on price. It falls behind in a few key areas, but only by a whisker

HTC U11
This glass-backed beauty wants to please with a squeeze - and it takes a great photo, too
£650
LG G6
LG's screen-centric stunner of a smartphone was the first to bring super-skinny bezels to the mainstream - and has a cracking wide-angle camera to go with it.

£599
Apple iPhone 7
Forget the headphone furore - the iPhone 7 is still a slick update packed with worthwhile new features

Google Pixel
Not the slam-dunk we were hoping for, but easily one of the best smartphone cameras around. Plus vanilla Android is always a winner

Wileyfox Swift 2 X
The price might have been bumped over the vanilla Swift 2, but 1080p and a bigger battery make this the Wileyfox phone to go for
