Some fantastic phones have spilled off the production lines this year. We’ve had the Huawei P20 Pro, OnePlus 6, and HTC’s U12+. Our top pick is the Samsung Galaxy S9, which sports one of the best cameras on the market. When it comes to value for money, we recommend Nokia 7 Plus. But 2018 is not over yet and a number of delectable handhelds are still due. Samsung is planning a comeback with the Galaxy Note 9, which according to rumour will have a Bluetooth-enabled stylus pen, enabling music features with a tap.

Motorola is releasing its Moto Z3 Play, which has a 6”, 18:9 display, dual camera set up, and a Snapdragon 636 chip. Sony has launched its top range Xperia XZ2 Premium, a phone with a 4K screen, costing $1,000 in the U.S., that may reach our shores later in the year.

Google are rumoured to be gearing up for the October debut of their Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, a month after Apple unveil their latest editions from the iPhone armoury in September.
