* BEST phone Fall Winter 2022* TOP Software* TOP Video Recording* TOP Selfie
EDITORIAL: The best 2022 Apple phone still holds it's ground - it was a great phone to begin with but with Apple's (very) incremental annual improvements, it's successors didn't get that much better. A great option even in 2025, especially if you're stuck in Apple ecosystem.

* TOP MidrangerMidrange
EDITORIAL: Oppo took a little more than it’s usual 6 months to come up with a new Reno model. This one is special: almost 5mm narrower (one hand friendlier) then Reno 14 Pro. The huge upgrade sees the same Mediatec processor, same battery (tho without wireless charging), smaller and brighter HDR10+ screen and an improved photography abilities. Reno 15 Pro (in some markets called “Reno 15 Pro Mini”) is easily one of the best midrangers in the world.
PROs
much smaller body then 14 Pro, good Mediatec 8450 with UFS3.1 performance, 36hr endurance from a 6200mAh Si-C diode battery with sub-60min 80W wired charging. very bright >1800nits 450ppi AMOLED screen with HDR10+ chops, IP69 protection. great imaging from 200MP 24mm main + 50MP 85mm telephoto (both with OIS PDAF) + 50MP 16mm AF ultra wide, excellent 50MP 18mm AF selfie, good video recording. 5 years of OS updates
CONs
no wireless charging, no LTPO tech, IP69 (but only to 1.5m) protection, no expandable memory, no computer replacement functionality, slow USBC 2.0 port
