The Android phone you SHOULD buy!

So I recently made a post about which iPhone you should buy. But, like many others, you might find them to expensive and I would agree with you. Therefore, you would like to opt for an android powered phone instead. However, there are so many options and so many price ranges. If you want to know which one is the ultimate best or which one offers you the best value for your money (Spoiler alert: they are much cheaper than iPhones) you should keep on reading!


The best android phone right now

You want to go for the best available option on the market today? This is actually a hard question to answer because at the top the differences are minimal. After looking at multiple phones and seeing them in action I personally find the Galaxy Note 9 the best android phone on the market now, however there are many other phones that perform on the same level. In the end it comes down to personal preference. Some of the other amazing phones out there are the Huawei Mate 20 Pro, Galaxy S9/S9+, Google Pixel 3, and the OnePlus 6T. These are all great options and you wouldn't go wrong buying any of these.

The best bang for your buck

The Note 9 is amazing but being very expensive doesn’t make the best option to buy it. There are other phones out there that have similar performance for a considerably cheaper price. One of these being the OnePlus 6T. The OnePlus is just as fast if not faster than the Note 9 has a cheaper price. Where does it lack? Well it doesn’t have the most beautiful display, the camera isn’t the best out there and it lacks a headphone jack. Still these functions still work fine, and some would even argue that you don’t really see much of a difference. That why the OnePlus 6T gives you the best value for your money, there aren’t any other phones on the market that can deliver the same quality at this price point.

The best phone for when you are on a budget

It depends on what your budget is but if you want a good performing phone that doesn’t break the bank there is only one real option. Motorola’s Moto G6. The phone feels and acts as a flagship phone at a fraction of the cost. Sure, it isn’t as fast or has some of the great features other flagship phones have, but then again you aren’t paying top dollar. The phone will handle your daily Instagram scrolling just fine. The display isn’t the highest resolution but still gives a bright and clear picture, the advantage of this is that the battery life on this phone is actually really good. Want the best phone on a budget? Look no further.

What I would choose

I personally own the Samsung Galaxy S9+ and I absolutely love it. From the speed to the screen, all is amazing. However, at the point of me buying the phone it was still very expensive and looking back at it I may have not made the best decision. If I were to buy a new phone today, I would still stick to an android, simply because I find iPhone overpriced. But again, I wouldn’t go for a Note 9 or similar because they have the same overpricing issue. What would I go for? I would buy the OnePlus 6T without a doubt. It can do almost everything a Note 9 can and gives me a cleaner version of Android, without all the annoying pre-installed apps. All this at seriously lower price. I still love my S9+, but it does bother me a bit that I payed so much for it at release.
