I feel a repairability criteria needs to be added. We know the fair phone will top it always.
pixel probably would be a runner up
No Fairphone?
I didn’t see the video, but what were the categories? Anything the fair phone could win?
My understanding is that the phone uses decently old tech.
Categories are timestamped in the description
1:12 Best Big Smartphone
3:55 Best Compact Phone
5:56 Best Camera
8:50 The Value Award
11:05 Best Battery
13:07 The Design Award
15:14 Best Foldable Phone
18:25 Most Improved
20:34 Bust of the Year
22:02 MVP
Sorry if this looks weird I don't know how to format correctly
I didn't see the video as well, but environnemental impact or repairability would have been the top choice.
Edit: best battery maybe, since you can replace it.
Let's be honest, the only one it could win would be repairability and it's really the only player, so...
Can someone just give a tl;dr?
I've run out of patience watching old mates videos when he waffles on and on.
Sure, here you go:
In the "Smartphone Awards 2023!" YouTube video, the host highlights various categories of smartphones, starting with the best big phone, which is won by the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra for its understated design, advanced hardware capabilities, software updates, and stylus support. The host also discusses the best small phones and folding phones, with the Asus Zenphone 10 being crowned the winner for its 5.9-inch display, competitive hardware, and elimination of previous nitpicks. The iPhone 15 Pro receives recognition for the best camera in a smartphone due to its total performance, ease of use, and excellent video quality. The Samsung Galaxy A54 is identified as the best value option, offering essential features at an affordable price without significant drawbacks. The presenter acknowledges the OnePlus Open as the best foldable phone due to its innovative design, nearly perfect square folding screen, and unique multitasking features.
There's more, I wasn't sure if it would be appropriate to paste the entire text in the comment's section. So, I will leave a link here: https://www.summarize.tech/youtube.com/watch?v=JkRXhe3KaPE
An interesting exercise would be to summarise the summary from the website. I will see if sherpa or MLCchat can do the job.
The A54 wins the value award. Lmao.
Do you make your purchasing decisions based on these categories? Best camera, best battery etc.?
These categories need to be reworked.
Yes actually, aside from a headphone jack these are the main categories I would look out for.
I mean, they're not bad starting points really to decide which phone to buy.
Do you make your purchasing decisions based on these categories? Best camera, best battery etc.?
No, but it's not really the point of this video.
