Consumers have already chosen what for them is the best phone of 2021 and although it is true that the year has only started three months ago and there are many models to be launched, for now there is a clear favorite. The iPhone 12 Pro Max triumphs in the new Consumer Reports ranking, although it is not the only outstanding phone that we have been able to see on the list.
What is special about this iPhone?
In addition to being the best smartphone released by Apple to date, the iPhone 12 Pro Max has several highlights that make it a favorite of many. It is not that the one with the most battery in the high range, but the one that has a greater autonomy thanks to the good management of its processor in conjunction with the software. Precisely iOS 14 and its good general performance also make it a reason to buy, as is its triple rear camera with LiDAR sensor included and that make it one of the best in photography and the most suitable for video recording.
It also has one of the best OLED screens on the market and not in vain has it served to be previously classified as the device with the best panel, despite the absence of some outstanding functions in other competitors such as the 120 Hz refresh rate. And all this set despite also the 1,259 euros that this device costs as a base, 100 euros more than its little brother ‘Pro’.
Other featured Apple phones
Although the iPhone is categorically cataloged as the best phone in general, there are other outstanding sections such as the OnePlus Nord N100 as the one with the best battery or the Nord N10 5G as the cheapest also of the Chinese brand. As far as Apple is concerned, we find that the iPhone 12 and iPhone 11 are also featured in categories of the best smartphones in value for money. Not surprisingly, the iPhone 11 has been the best-selling phone of 2020 worldwide and it looks like in 2021 it will continue to reap very good sales figures.
Apple’s strategy of launching new generations of iPhones at different prices and also keeping some old ones on the market is working well for the company. Consumers can now have access to different iPhones that, despite their differences, offer a very positive overall performance with the latest versions of iOS. We remember that today these are the devices on sale by Californians with differences of 100 euros between them:
- iPhone SE (2nd generation): from 489 euros
- iPhone XR: from 589 euros
- iPhone 11: from 689 euros
- iPhone 12 mini: from 809 euros
- iPhone 12: from 909 euros
- iPhone 12 Pro: from 1,159 euros
- iPhone 12 Pro Max: from 1,259 euros
Obviously there are other phones on the market from brands like Samsung that have traditionally taken the podium of these rankings and although the Galaxy S21 have been overshadowed by devices such as OnePlus, the truth is that they are still great references for consumers who prefer Android compared to to iOS.
