Your Next Smartphone - The Flagship Phones

Your Next Smartphone - The Flagship Phones

When looking to purchase a new smartphone, most people are tempted by the latest and greatest devices on the market. In today’s blog, we’re going to introduce you to just that, the best smartphones you can get and use today.

Google Pixel 6 Pro

Google spent the past two calendar years without a “flagship” offering. Their top-of-the-line phone from 2020-21 was a more budget-friendly offering, but this year they have rolled out their first flagship phone in two years with the Google Pixel 6 Pro. 

Running on Google’s new Tensor chip, the Pixel 6 Pro features a 6.7-inch LTPO display, 12 GB of RAM, and up to 512 GB of onboard storage. It runs a stock version of Android 12, Google’s most recent mobile OS. The idea is, by investing in processing technology, that it will allow the software giant to optimize this and future devices’ performance. 

For years, Google has offered some of the highest-quality cameras and software optimization. The Pixel 6 Pro continues this with its three-camera setup. It features a 50 MP wide-angle lens with optical image stabilization (OIS), a 48 MP telephoto lens with OIS, and a fixed 12 MP ultra wide-angle lens. It also claims a 5,003 mAh battery with 84 hours of battery life, an under-display fingerprint sensor, and 23W fast-charging. 

Available in Cloudy White, Sorta Sunny, and Stormy Black for $899, you can get the Pixel 6 Pro directly from Google or via many of the leading cellular carriers.

Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max

Another year, another iPhone. Apple has sustained (and thrived) as many of the world’s biggest technology companies enter (and usually leave) the smartphone space. This year’s best iPhone, the iPhone 13 Pro Max sports a stainless steel frame and Gorilla Glass on the front and back. The device features a 6.7-inch Super Reina XDR OLED display, and is powered by Apple’s proprietary 15 Bionic chipset. It has a comparatively lower 6 GB of RAM than many of the other premium devices, but Apple’s ability to get best-in-class performance from lower specifications has been their calling card for a long time. 

The 13 Pro Max also features three rear-facing cameras, including a 12 MP wide-angle lens with sensor-shift technology, a 12 MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom and traditional OIS, and a 12 MP ultra wide-angle lens. With a 4,352 mAh battery the iPhone 13 Pro Max has an impressive 121 endurance rating. It also features 27W fast charging.

For security, the iPhone 13 Pro Max features Apple Face ID security software and is rated IP68 certified. It is available in Graphite, Gold, SIlver, and Sierra Blue for $1,099 from the Apple store and most wireless carriers.
