We kind of went all out for this year's Best Phone Ceremony! 😅 If you thought this one was cool, wait till you see what we've got planned for next year 👀

The fact that he actually made custom trophies for each phone shows how much effort he puts into each video

[AllNighterMusicS]

The fact that I can't even buy these phones but still watch his videos without skipping around is phenomenal

My mom got a Google pixel 7 pro around Christmas and I’m so in love with it. If it weren’t for being completely integrated into apple’s ecosystem and all the convenience that comes from that, I would switch to it. It’s hands down the simplest, most attractive, user friendly UI for android and using my mom’s phone is the first time an android phone didn’t feel like it had a learning curve to me

Been watching smartphone awards now for 4 years, this is genuinely the best. Big ups to 7 pro, they're well deserved.

[Wise-Lady-La-Aura]

I think you would do a fabulous job as a host of the Academy awards! You have a very professional sense of presentation and a classic, smart, yet down to Earth style. I appreciate your attention to detail in explaining the best smartphones to buy this year. Everyone in the market for a new smartphone should watch this.. Who's the boss? You're the boss! Thanks, Arun

The nothing phone takes the cake for me. The fact that the devs took such a huge risk making it is phenomenal.

[TheInfiniteLegend]

I can just imagine the Google marketing team and Pixel development team screaming in joy for winning the best smartphone award from this legend...

[ab_s]

Custom trophies for smartphones clearly shows how dedicated Arun is…

A nice video as always, Arun!

[nettea]

subbed just for the production, the delivery, the whole damn concept. This guy's energy and excitement is unmatched!

[captaindelta]

Mad respect to Arun and his team for actually making these sick custom trophies . I almost feel like he should keep one like that in his studio background saying the "Best tech youtuber" Arun

A very well presented video! Well done Arun 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Great picks!

[amirtorhan]

This year has been kind of lacking from the bigger manufacturers, and I agree that the pixel is the only phone that really deserved the top award this time because of the improvement and price, even though I myself am not a fan of Google phones.

[Aquadoessingingandstuff]

I'm still so in love with my huawei p30 pro, it's been the best phone I've ever used, however it's coming up to it 4th year in use and its beginning to slow down. It sucks we can no longer get them in the UK. I'm looking for my next phone but I'm so worried that I'm going to be so let down what ever I choose next. What phone would you recommend that would be as good if not better than the huawei, id love your advice. Thank you

[kaushnath]

I genuinely love how Arun works hard just for the little things in his videos. The background, the audio, the editing and every small things in his videos are meticulously thought out and pre-planned. They are executed to perfection in the end. I can't even imagine the amount of hard work that they have to put in for the concepts and the videos. Really good job, guys! Your videos are worth watching for each and EVERY second.

[iamgroot]

I’ve been really rooting for Google Pixel. I’m so happy that in a brand oriented market, Arun really went with the right choice of recommending the overall best that also goes with budget rather than going for the typically desired iPhones. Also Google Pixel winning two years consecutively really shows their vast improvement and foreshadows a future pixel trend.😍

Hey, I'm just happy ASUS is back to putting up a fight. I'm still super happy with my normal ROG Phone 5, so upgrading isn't on the cards for at least a few more years, but I'm glad to see them making stuff that's pulling attention again.

As a Bloons player I just want to say the particles don't lag your game, the calculations that the does behind the scenes is what does.

I love your work, keep it up!❤
