1. Samsung Galaxy Note 8 The Note 7 was Samsung's most popular device, for all the wrong reasons. it's battery fiasco made the headline in most tech blogs. Samsung galaxy note 8 The story behind the Note 7 fiasco also made the Note 8 popular, owing to the fact that people were actually waiting to find out if Samsung could manufacture another note device without a battery that exploads. The rancour the Note 7 battery fiasco brought to Samsung didn't depeat or dampen Samsung's plan of producing a better Galaxy note device. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is the first Samsung device to feature a 6.3 inch display a reminisce of the S8 which also had a 6.2 inch stretched display. The note 8 features a 6.3 inch quad HD super amoled curved infinity display with a screen resolution that is a reminisce of the S8 , I say reminisce because the 2960x 1440 resolution. The Note 8 is also the first Samsung smartphone to feature dual rear cameras with the implementation of a 2X zoom lens just like the one featured on the iPhone 7. Tests carried out on the Note 8 shows that the Note 8 does a better job when it comes to 2X zoom than the iPhone. The Note 8 also features a stylus pen that has a tip as thin as that of a ball pen. The Note 8 can take up to 100 notes on screen without unlocking the device. The Note 8 is also the first Samsung smartphone to officially launch with 6 GB ram for it's base model. The Note 8 is powered by a snapdragon 835 processor. For those who care, The Note 8 still features a headphone jack, a feature which may not be found in it's successors. Why is the Note 8 my favourite.. learn more...

The iPhone x upon it's release had a lot of controversies, controversies that may end up being reasons people shouldn't buy the iPhone x or trust iPhone. Iphone x The biggest and first problem apple had with the iPhone x, is the fact that it's so called advanced face scanner failed about four times during presentation. This fact has being blamed on the carelessness of the software engineer who was tasked with making sure their chief software engineers face was well entrolled for presentation. Secondly, the iPhone x had being referred to as a parody that imitates features found on smartphones that existed before it. The Advanced face recognition system, the Augmented reality kit features it has where already existing in most Android phone before the iPhone x. Putting aside the fact that the iPhone x is referred to as a parody and the fact that the iPhone x is a parody, the iPhone x means alot to the apple mobile team and fans. This is due to the fact that the iPhone x bears a lot of new features that have being absent in apple phones from the past. First and the most obvious of all features is it's approach to a near bezeless display on the iPhone x. The display on the iphone x is a 5.8 inch near bezeless amoled display with a screen resolution of 2430 X 1135. The near bezeless display featured on the iPhone x made apple to do away with it's traditional touch ID button and seek for another option for security. This is where the new advanced face scanner comes in. The advanced face recognition system also known as Face ID is powered by the Dot projector, infrared camera and flood illuminator. The dot project shoots 30,000 dots across your face to be sure it is you and not a well constructed 3D mask or a picture of you. Since the face ID is the main security on the iphone x you might be probably be wondering how you will be able to unlock your device in the dark learn more...

3. Nokia 8 Nokia over the years have ridden on the back of the nostalgia horse �, but the effect of the nostalgia was gradually fading away. Nokia partnered with HMD who began producing Android smartphones which were intended to contend with 2017 flagships and fit into the status quo. Nokia 8 This plan gave birth to the Nokia 8 which is Nokia's first flagship device after a very long time. The Nokia 8 from afar doesn't really look so 2017 like, but a close assessment of the device reveals the features that makes it a contender in 2017.

Speaking of essential, the essential smartphone didn't actually hit the 2017 smartphone with some sort of new innovation, but the fact that it was built by a former Google employee Andy rubin, one of the pioneers of the Android operating system and the fact that it's a new product in the smartphone industry brought a lot of attention to it. Essential phone The hype it got wasn't all a waste, it's actually was worth the hype sort of. The essential smartphone is actually about manufacturing a smartphone that is centered on the essentials. I think Andy rubin doesn't consider headphone jack to be essential, because the essential smartphone doesn't feature a headphone jack. The essential smartphone features a 5.7 inch quad HD display with a resolution of 2560 x 1312 also with an of aspect ratio of 19:10. The essential smartphone display stretches to the top of the phone just like the xiaomi mi mix. The difference here is instead of placing the front facing camera on the bottom bezel , the essential smartphone features a cut out for the front facing camera in the top center position of it's display. The essential smartphone features android soft keys on its display. It's display is guarded by gorilla glass 5. The essential smartphone is built with a titanium frame for toughness. The essential smartphone features a snapdragon 835 processor, 4GB of ram and 128GB if internal storage Learn more ...

5. One plus 5 If you have being reading my articles on smartphones for a while now, you would have noticed the one plus 5 in most of them, and that is because I love this smartphone alot. The one plus 5 is a smartphone that features 2017 hardware specifications with a price that doesn't compliment. The one plus 5 features 5.5 inch IPS display. The one plus 5 is powered by snapdragon's flagship 835 octa-core processor chip, 8 gigs of LPDDR4X ram, 128GB of internal storage and a 3,300 mAh battery with it's native dash charge mechanism. Where the above variant costs about $500, there is also a variant of the one plus 5 with 6gb of ram and 32GB of internal storage which costs $479. The one plus 5 as I earlier said is a smartphone that features top hardware specifications with a price tag that isn't complimentry. The reason I love the one plus 5 once again, is just simple. It features the kind of hardware tech enthusiasts will fancy in 2017 at the same time retaining a $500 budget. learn more.. |

All the phones in the list are dope. Nokia need to work on their design; they're still retaining the design of Microsoft phones, which isn't really "fanimorous" ![]() Guys, check out the specs of some of the phones on the list: Latest Nokia Android phones with their prices Samsung Galaxy phones and prices |
