Top Cell Phones 2023

The Xiaomi Redmi 12 is an attractive and inexpensive smartphone which may not include 5G, but it can offer lots of storage and precise locating in return.

The Honor X8a is a pretty, inexpensive mid-range phone with a good camera. However, it only partially meets the class standards in terms of performance and features.

Motorola's Moto G13 is a quite fast phone from the affordable mid-range with good features: 90 Hz display, NFC, and a lot of storage.

The Motorola Moto G53 has plenty of promise for its price. There's a lovely lightweight design with a big display, a decent sized battery and a good camera spec. We have high hopes the Moto G53 will be a solid performer and a great option to choose if your budget is under £/$200. We still need to test this device in full for our final verdict but for now, things are looking good.

While the iPhone 14 doesn't offer all of the innovative new features available to the Pro line, Apple has made plenty of small tweaks under the hood to boost its performance and keep it competitive.

The Axon 40 Ultra is ZTE’s third attempt at an under-display camera. The company has absolutely nailed making that camera invisible, but it’s a different story when it comes to actually taking photos.

Realme has made some thoughtful, meaningful decisions with its latest budget phone, most notably design and an LCD display that lacks in refresh rate but punches well above its weight in picture quality.

Spend a little more and you’ll get a much better phone, but for those with a limited budget, the Moto G31 is a solid enough choice for basic usage.

There are a few things in the Moto G50 that we find a bit irritating, but overall, Motorola delivers a good mid-range smartphone.

Among the plethora of Redmi 9 and Redmi Note 9 models, the Redmi 9T hardly offers any added value, but it's still a good choice for budget-conscious buyers.
