FLY* TOP Screen* TOP Software* TOP Gaming
EDITORIAL: As last year, Vivo's subbrand IQOO released it's top phone as soon as the best Snapdragon chip became available. This year there is no Pro model, just one amazing gaming powerhouse with a 6000+mAh Silicon Carbon battery that provides exceptional battery runtime. The screen is also outstanding, performing better than most flagships. If you can live with a good (but not great) cameras and you're okay with a phone this big - IQOO 13 (and OnePlus 13) should be at the top of your list.

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.
